The grilled red snapper was absolutely delicious! Also the Mofo on U is a huge burger which was very good. Loved the band and love this place. I will definitely be back!

The lamb chops are AMAZING, as is pretty much everything else. & the staff is super friendly. & there's live jazz. Every time I eat somewhere else on U St, I kinda wonder why I'm not at Jo Jo.

Awesome Jazz. Great service. The Malibu Punch Bowl is huge and delicious! The (vegan) spaghetti with tomato sauce was really great, but a little too spicy (hot). The blackened Chicken was spicy too.

Wonderful atmosphere, great music and delicious fresh food. Small and intimate space. Sunday brunch with bottomless mimosas!

I don't know if the four margaritas are speaking here or what, but this is a little great place to be in Washington. If I ever come to this city again, I'm coming back to Jojo's.

Bourbon chicken wings or ribs for happy hour. Ribs so tender they fall off of the bone.

The bruschetta olivata is pretty good but the olives don't stand out that much

T-TR late-night happy hour 10-12 w/live jazz. Can get loud but always a good default.
