British 5-cent piece in the tabletop in the corner
Kristen E.

Needed lunch on our way home from the airport. Found parking in the lot, although inside the restaurant was full. We were seated immediately, and eventually JoJo herself took our order. We can recommend the meatball hoagie and the tuna salad (with balsamic vinagrette). Very cheap. They will take your check at the table, but you can also go up to the register on the far side of the room.

Western Omelette

We came for lunch with a small group during the week. The staff rearranged a couple of tables and accommodated us quickly. This is definitely a well loved place with many regular customers. I got the western omelette. It came with home fries and toasts. It was pretty good but didn't impress. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Everything was also super affordable. Our party of five got a bill for $60 plus tax/tips. I would come back for a casual meal.

Fellow Yelpers, thank you so much for writing reviews about JoJo's Place restaurant. I trusted your opinions, and I had a great meal here. JoJo's Place is a small, local restaurant that serves simple but tasty foods for breakfast (e.g., French toast, oatmeal, bagel sandwich, biscuits and sausage gravy, and country-fried steak) and lunch (e.g., salads, soups, many sandwiches, fried shrimp, and chicken strips). My husband and I ate breakfast here on a Saturday. As expected, we had to wait several minutes for a table to become available. In the meantime, I chatted with two long-time customers in line. I think that JoJo herself served us for most of our meal. She and her employees were very nice and performed their jobs very well. I liked my blueberry pancakes and bacon, and my husband liked his ham-cheese omelette, home fries, and toast. I felt surprised when the customers with whom I had chatted earlier paid my bill for me! What nice people! Thank you! My husband wanted to pay something, so he left an extra-large tip for our waitress.

Cute roadside diner outside Pittsburgh. Friendly service, delicious food prepared to order. We would definitely go back again! Highly recommend!

Pancakes, sausages, and hash brown

This place was really packed when me and my coworker came in to eat. We waited around 5 to 10 minutes before a waiter was able to seat us down. The environment of others was really comfortable; very much local mom and pop shops. The food on the other hand was really good. My friend said his pancakes were really fluffy and soft. We will definitely be back

This establishment provides a good atmosphere with friendly staff. My food was excellent with a price tag that is hard to beat no matter where you're at! I will gladly revisit Jo Jo's place again the next time I am in the area.

Jo Jo's Place is a locally owned breakfast restaurant with genuine people and delicious homemade food. I visited this place totally by chance and i was so happy i did. The place itself is not fancy or trendy, but it has cosy and homely feel to it. You can tell from the wait staff to the cooks, they are somebody's grandma and grandpa. They are just so kind and welcoming. The food is delicious and its price is amazingly reasonable. I was totally swept away by their soup of the day. It was vegetable beef and it was so flavorful. My partner even said that he feels warm and fuzzy inside after eating at this place because it gives him that nostalgic home feeling.

Bacon, Egg, & Cheese Bagel with tomato added - YUMMM!!!

Great brunch restaurant! It's popular for a reason so make sure to arrive before 10:30 on the…read moreweekends or join their online waitlist. We luckily only had to wait 5 minutes for a table for 2 and our waiter brought coffee over immediately. They had a special seasonal menu with summer themed items, as well as their usual menu full of variety. I ordered the Lemon Ricotta Pancakes and loved them! Food came out quickly within 15mins. I was not expecting my pancakes to be so huge, they were as large as the 12in plate! Plus it was a stack of 2 pancakes that large. They were light and extremely fluffy, very flavorful even without maple syrup and the toppings. The lemon jam on top mixed with chunks of strawberries was delicious! A perfect mix of tart and sweet, wish there was more to taste with every bite. I wasn't sure if the ricotta was in the lemon mix or between the 2 pancakes though. The dish was large enough to fill me up and still have half leftover for later. Only downside is $14+ for pancakes is a bit expensive, but the quality was worth it.

First Watch is always a solid choice for breakfast, brunch, or lunch! Some days the wait may be…read morelong, so be sure to "Get in Line" on their website to be waitlisted for a table. The staff is always kind, even though you can tell they are super busy. This time, I ordered the specialty pancake. I believe it was some kind of Cinnamon Toast Crunch pancake. You also can't go wrong with any of their Hashes or Bowls. Service is always quick and the food is always delicious!
