Jo Jo's Pizzeria & Restaurant

all of my co-workers hyped this place to me , maybe that is why it was such a let down. the pizza was not good. the prices for other menu items were too high . seriously a box of pasta is $1.50 i can make this stuff at home. the quality lacks, the portion size stinks, the pizza sucks. the service was okay.

I just read Carl P's review (5/28/2013) and have some additional comments to make.
I've been a loyal customer at Jo-Jo's for probably the past 20+ years.  I have a condo nearby and It's my go to Italian Restaurant during the spring and summer months.
My wife and I were there this past Friday night.  

She always orders just Pasta with marinara sauce.  The price is still $10, but the portion was about half the size and no soup or salad was included.
The bread was cold, hard, and lousy.  
I had trouble finding something to order on the new menu.  MY first choice was Chicken Parm., but it came with some vegetable like squash and NO SUBSTITUTES WERE ALLOWED.  I wanted to order pasta with eggplant added-----waitress told us that Chef will not change anything on the menu.  Now we know the waitress, and she's been there for years and is very nice and pleasant.
It was made clear that nothing on the menu can be changed.
I had to settle for a deep fried chicken Panini since they took the Grilled chicken Panini off the menu.  I was disappointed with the bread used in the Panini sandwich.

There was a large party of 10-12 seated and left shortly after looking over the menu.
When we finished the meal and went outside, there were customers complaining about the menu, portions, and elimination of soup/salad.

We won't be going back here again.  I honestly don't think that the new Management has a clue about how to run a restaurant.

NO SUBSTITUTES----Are you kidding me????
If you want to add a side of pasta to your meal, they will charge you $8.00
I just don't get it.  
It's a shame cause they remodeled this place during the spring, and now they are going to lose most of their loyal customers that stuck with them during all these years.

Without a doubt one of the best places in the entire Atlantic City area for lunch and dining. They have daily lunch specials and the waitress Joann is the very best around. We were there for dinner a few days ago and they even had a violin player and singer. The owner was there and he to is a wonderful host. No better value for your money the service and food are great.
