JoJo's Kitchen

Delicious food! The truffle steak sandwich is amazing! I loved the free juice samples as well. We came around 1 PM, and the signs are everywhere that she makes all the dishes in the back and to be patient, it took about 40 min for my friends order and mine, but when I took a bite of the sandwich, it was well worth the wait! If you're in a rush, maybe call in ahead of time.

After many years of working downtown I finally tried this place a few months ago. Located at the end of a tunnel through a building on king street near alakea. This place has made it through the pandemic and came out strong.The Italian sandwich is sooo good...and although a little pricey this is definitely two meals. Between two thick slabs of bread, the medley of Italian meats are stuffed to the brim including lettuce, cheese tomatoes and a light but creamy sauce. The sandwich comes out warm and each mouthful has you craving another bite.The salads are huge and my favorite part is the bacon and it really complements the lettuce, tomato, blue cheese and red onion. The whole combination with the crunchy bacon is perfectly salty and crispy. The creamy blue cheese dressing is like a slow, thick topping upon a delicious healthy lunch option. I feel like the salad creates the perfect balance of being conscious of what you are eating for lunch but having fun.There are always samples of fresh juices and I have always told myself I have to order a cup. The last sample I tried was green with apples, ginger and other delicious flavors. Probably a good choice in getting an energy boost.Great small business lunch option!

I decided to try a new place in the area for lunch and stumbled upon Jojob's kitchen. It's a very friendly atmosphere with smoothies samples. Today, I opted for the special of the day and a smoothie.Tuna on Rye with Fries: 9/10. It's not often that I am impressed by a tuna sandwich, but Jojo's Kitchen is making me rethink not trying it more often. The fries are piping hot and crispy outside. The sandwich isn't overpowered by the Rye bread. Quite a wonderful experience.Peach (Paradise?) Smoothie: 10/10. This smoothie will have me coming back. It comes in 16 or 20 Oz, I opted for the 20. It is refreshing and has great flavor.I did take out around 12pm, shortly after I ordered around 10 more customers came to order. I suggest trying to beat the rush or grin and bear the line for some great food.

Team decided on Jojo's for our team luncheon and it did NOT disappoint! Order via email and chef Jojo confirmed order with 15 mins! Stoked! Order was ready and still hot! Everything was delish! I had the tofu wrap which blew me away!! Delish!! Will be back again!

Delicious food. Absolutely delicious. Downtown has fewer lunch options post-pandemic... this is a spot I learned about on Tuesday and visited on Wednesday because there were so many people there on Tuesday. (A good sign)Arrived at 11:45 AM, ordered three items to go, and took a quick walk down the corridor, which has a few other options new to me. I was with one of my colleagues so she was as excited. Then we walked back to wait and found seating.The menu is great, with sandwiches, wraps, salads, smoothies, fries, and onion rings...truffle options... all wonderful and prices well.Around 12:30, I finally asked, since so many orders came out...and no, we were not skipped, our food was being prepared. Then, about 5 minutes later, a person came out asking people who had ordered chicken, then let us all know they had run out but went to the store, would we be able to wait another 10-15 minutes. Sure. After several orders came out, we were told they ran out of chicken, again, and they would reimburse one of our three items and make the other two.It was a bit too long and odd, but the food was soooo delicious. I had a steak salad, and I will pre-order from now on...

I love a good salad... I love it even better when the dressing is amazing. I do not like it when the salad costs $20 for take out but what can you do in this shrinkflation economy?My favorites are the Greek salad and the steak salad. The dressing on the Greek salad is amazing! It's different than what you would normally get. The steak salad used to be better because they used chimichurri as the dressing but when they changed the dressing, I stopped getting it.She uses quality ingredients and a lot of different vegetables, not just your standard romaine lettuce. She also adds lots of other vegetables so you're getting a whole variety and lots of color. Some cons - even if you place a phone order, your order takes awhile (she makes it fresh but be prepared to wait), she's not always open (it's like she rolls a dice and is like, should I open today or nah?), and finally, prices are steep. You should try it at least once to see if you like it. I have tried other things but I always go back to the salads, they're the best!

I keep telling myself that I need to write a review of one of my favorite places and in time, my photos I've posted awhile ago may not be tied into my review.This is like a hidden gem unless you know about Jo Jo's Kitchen through others who worked near by.Since My place of work is now farther away from downtown, i would drive than walk here, but may not go as often as I would like. Parking in downtown is higher with the rate of twenty-five cent per 5 minutes!! I would suggest to pre-order, so your order will be ready when you pick up or have someone be your food runner. A couple of times my friend had it delivered (not offered at this time), but most of the times she would pick up for me and I would pick up my order from her work place.I wasn't much of a steak sandwich person before until I tried her truffle steak sandwich! Amazing! My work friend would tell me the weekly specials and when she offer to pick up lunch from here, I'm all in. The sandwich's bread sometimes can be on ciabatta bread or a hoagie with grilled onions, truffle oil, shaved cheese, garlic aioli, mushrooms! The pastrami sandwich was also full of pastrami and everything I've tried from the menu or the specials were amazing! So much flavor and ingredients to make the sandwich incredible! You can tell she loves cooking and it show In her foods! Her food has been excellent, since it's just her, the chef, cooking with her helper in front! I've tried some of the seasonal menu items like the baby back ribs with collard greens with bacon and jalapeño corn bread! The Turkey meal too was so worth it. Others I tried was the chicken picatta, Korean bbq beef wrap, & steak salad & one of my favorite beef stew!! Yum!Jo Jo's Kitchen is only opened during the weekday lunch hours and also do catering. Always double check the days and hours opened since at this current time, it is close on Tuesdays! I would highly recommend this place and my friends would agree with me.Thanks for reading my review! =)

2/3/27 Our office ordered lunch from here and I thoroughly enjoyed my hot Italian sandwich so much that I went the following week to order a another sandwich. The place is clean, friendly, quick and food is delicious. All the things you'd want in a lunch spot. There's a few counter top tables inside and tables outside to enjoy your food. They also offer smoothed and fresh fruit juices.Highly recommend this business.

Very generous sized truffle fries and parmesan tots! Fries and tots are my main food group; absolutely love. Ordered take out, walked for about 10-15 minutes before eating. Still crispy! So flavorful! And the fries are Crinkle Cut
