Hojoko Boston

Good spot near Fenway inside the Verb Hotel for a quick bite. We tried the chicken karaage, potstickers, and spicy tuna roll. The chicken pieces were big, and both the chicken and potstickers were good. The tuna roll was decent, but not worth the $16 price tag.The drinks were pretty good. We had the Bone Kosho and La Neta, both unique and flavorful. Overall, I'd definitely return for drinks. The service could have been better.

Hojoko is a fun place especially for good food, and the occasional karaoke night once a month Sundays. Really nice interior too and sometimes in the summer you can sit outside by the pool too.We went here with friends for dinner and it was great! They have a wasabi sushi roulette dish which is basically a dish with sushi pieces and one of them contains a LOT of wasabi. The hubs and friends played it and the hubs ended up with the wasabi sushi. You couldn't pay me to do it because I'm not a fan of wasabi lol! But they all enjoyed it! And the winner gets a little sticker that says something like "I won the wasabi roulette "I ordered the Japanese curry chicken katsu rice which comes with this delicious sauce and potatoes. I've had this dish before and simply love it! The chicken was perfectly crispy on the outside and tender inside very flavorful and the sauce and veggies have this really nice slightly spicy and savory flavor- yummy yummy! Really great tasting dish and very satisfying! Must try!!Others ordered sushi and the burger and drinks and we also shared some edamame. Everyone enjoyed their food.Then we did karaoke which was great fun! The DJ was awesome! She had a great voice herself and she did a nice job introducing people and then commending them when they were done. Only thing is that the sound system could better. Sometimes the music is hard to hear - they need to turn it up.Overall a great time with great food, service and ambiance!

I think 3.5 stars is fair. Great spot next to Fenway Park. We had a 5:15 rez and were done in 90 min, so I wouldn't book later than 5:30 for a 7:10 start.Alvin was a great server, but had to apologize for the food coming out slowly. One burger came out at least 5 mins before the other 3. Good burger though. I like how it has the option of edamame or a salad. For $20 though, it's kind of small patty, albeit wagyu beef . If a burger is all you want Tasty burger near Fenway Park is another good option.Spicy tuna roll was actually spicy! Only 6 PCs though. Fried chicken was solid, and the pot stickers were ok.I thought the $10 sake bomb seemed reasonable. That said, We had 3 adults and 2 kids and spent over $50 pp after tip.This place has an interesting vibe and we had fun. For some reason I thought it would be a bit nicer though!

We had made a reservation for Hojoko in advance, to grab a drink/snack before a concert at Fenway Park. The location couldn't be more convenient and the restaurant was connected to a hotel. The interior was spacious and well-decorated with Asian-inspired lighting fixtures, colorful wall art, and floor to ceiling windows. I was excited by their large mocktail menu, and ended up trying both the Japan, Meets Italy and Bone Kosho. The Japan, Meets Italy was probably the closest mocktail to a real Aperol Spritz I've ever tried - delicious, super refreshing! The Bone Kosho had a nice kick to it, and was also well-made. My friend also loved her 5, 6, 7, 8s cocktail. For food, I only ordered a Spicy Salmon Roll, which was pretty standard. My friends got the 3pc Karaage Fried Chicken, Shrimp Toast, Cool Cucumber Salad, Snow Crab California Roll, Shrimp & Pork Potstickers, and Shiitake Mushroom Tempura Roll. All the food items were pretty good, and the Shiitake Mushroom Tempura Roll was the most unique item by far - covered in a truffle foam, which my friend really liked. Overall, a good experience - would return to try more!

One of the many restaurants on Boylston Street in Fenway. I came here for dinner with a couple of friends on a weeknight. Hojoko is inside the The Verb Hotel so the decor inside matches. We sat at a high table in the enclosed patio space and ordered fried chicken, brussel sprouts, kimchi fried rice, and shrimp toast to share among the 3 of us. The pieces of chicken were pretty big and very crispy being the highlight of the meal in my opinion. The brussel sprouts were flavorful, but slightly over cooked and roasted. The shrimp toast was good and the kimchi fried rice had a good spice to it. We were all full from the meal and had a great time conversing over dinner. The service was great and we got everything we ordered. Overall,

When we went it was kind of dead. It was like 2 pm, so after lunch rush. The service was pretty quick and everyone was pleasant. It's a restaurant connected to a hotel. Seemed to have lots of seating and while we waited for a friend, we sat down to play a table game of Pac-Man. Throwback! The food was tasty. Be aware that spicy actually means Spicy! Boston got me twice this time. Y'all have upped your spice game.

Food was served promptly, hot and fresh. Staff were personable, thoughtful, and professional. The dining area is large, but still cozy.

A small little place next to Fenway, this place truly blew me away. It's got a dive bar vibe when you walk in, but the food is far beyond any bar food. Everything was phenomenal. I wasn't bothered by the fat things come as they're ready. We had everything quickly and as long as there is something to eat I'm happy. The shrimp toast was by far the best thing we ordered, and truly unique. The fried chicken also was a hit. The only thing we got that didn't stand out was the potstickers. The sushi was fresh and real crab. Love this place.

Hailed as one of the best burgers in Boston, I walked in with high hopes. Unfortunately, the food did not live up to the hype, which was a complete shock for me because wagyu beef alone is already tasty. Yet my burger was severely underwhelming and the fries weren't even warm. Per my photo, you can see the lack of seasoning on the fries.

Wanted to try this place for the vibes and the wasabi roulette but they didn't have it at the time and while the place was cute and retro themed, the food was pretty mediocre and not memorable. I barely remember eating my food and I got the ramen but I will say the kaarage pieces were pretty good and a lot bigger than I thought they would be! Also had to move tables because where we were placed was right under the ac unit so would not recommend sitting there.
