JoJo’s is a fully immersive dining experience. The hope is to offer guests an opportunity to relive their childhood through retro arcade games, nostalgic movies, and throwback menu items.

Whether you’re on the patio, enjoying brunch, or taking advantage of the walk-up window for the on-the-go Detroiters, JoJo’s seems to have something for everyone.

The menu will feature JoJo’s signature over-the-top Biggie Shakes, Chicago-style hotdogs, elaborate cocktails, and an array of gluten-free and vegan options.
