My group of 5 had a semi-late dinner here one evening. There was a live band playing an interesting choice of music... (instrumentals only). Everything pretty much sounded the same. However, the overall ambiance and environment was okay. Theservice was very slow…it took a really long time to get our entrees. I cringed when some of the guests ordered dessert becauseI knew that would make for an even longer night lol. I must say that my meal, Blackened Salmon w/Bacon Wrapped Shrimp, was a lotbetter than I expected. The portion was huge and I couldn’t finish it all. With that said, they definitely give you enoughfood to match the price. I didn’t order any cocktails, but the others in the group were impressed with theirs. Overall, theplace is really small inside so you’ll definitely need to make reservations. Also, the entertainment rotates so I’m suresome nights are better than others. Read more

First, I love the atmosphere at Jojo. This is a jazz club that usually has live music each night. Great music on during my... visit. I ordered the drunken steak and the penne pasta. The pasta had chicken and sausage which gave the dish a welcoming creolefeel. The drunken steak was cooked a perfect medium and the bourbon glaze with it was delicious! I had to fight the urge to lickthe plate clean of that glaze. Everyone was friendly and I had a great time at Jojo! Read more

New Zealand mussels, Crispy calamari, the Lobster ravioli, Cajun pork chop & shrimp, and the New Zealand lamb chops. Reserveyour table in advance. Definitely recommended! Read more

Date night success at this absolutely amazing find in DC. ?????????????? Checked reviews for JoJos prior to visiting the DC... area and quickly made reservations confident that we would be in for a treat. They certainly did not disappoint! Note: there isa $ 10 per person entertainment charge on Fridays and Saturdays. Also due to the limited spacing availability, they offerseating accommodation of up to two hours per party. We made reservations for 8:30pm. I believe the entertainment charge did notapply to those patrons seated outdoor & on the second floor. We were extremely pleased with our seating. We were seated at around table across from the bar on the first floor. We Loved, Loved, Loved our space in the corner. We both had tastes forburgers. Our Lyft driver also recommended them. They were huge and very delicious. We were glad for the recommendations. Drinkswere great! The artists on the calendar that night were showing all the way out???????????????? and were absolutely amazing!???????? Clarence Ward III ???????? & group Dat Feel Good????????yes! We are fans! Go and check out JoJos the next time you arepassing through DC. Highly recommended for Live music and great food. ?? We will be back! Read more

We came here for happy hour, and we thought it was amazing. The food was cheap, I got the ribs and it was only $10 and came with... fries. What a steal! Ribs were great and I would 100% come back for some more. Also $5 happy hour drafts and some other cheaperdrinks like cocktails. We all loved the food and the love music was great too. Would recommend. Read more

20% gratuity added to check, $2 fee to per person because we brought a cake in. Oh and $10 added to tab for the band, was... removed since they weren't playing before we departed. It was a little disappointing since none of this was mentioned when Ireserved a table for five. Food and drinks were average. Do yourself a favor and go to a better place for the price. Read more

The live music is definitely the best asset of this restaurant. Its 10 dollars for the the music. We were expecting more on the... food, the fries and apple tart were the best of all. The ambiance is so cozy and inviting. I’ll come back for the music andthe desserts. Read more
