Stopped by for a quick bite. Restaurant was essentially empty but slow to get seated. Finally sat & 10 min later with 4 other tables, 2 of which had checks, our server arrived. Got a medium Lazy Boy, 1/2 sausage/pepperoni. Pizza was good as always but service was lacking for how dead it was. Note to the business - service will tank brand all day. read more

After ten years, it's likely time that I do an update to my Jockamo review. However, the first thing I'm going to note is that my overall star rating isn't going to change. For me, Jockamo remains a solid entry in Indy pizza scene. It's a place I look forward to visiting, but I'm unlikely to ever consider it one of Indy's best. For those who don't yet know, this location is in the Fort Ben area in one of the office buildings. It's on the ground floor and faces East 56th Street. It is right across the parking lot from a Tru by Hilton. Jockamo is locally owned. There are locations in Irvington and Greenwood in addition to this one. All the locations tend to have a slightly hipster vibe with a warm, hospitable decor and friendly customer service. On this day, I arrived shortly after their 11am open for a quick lunch. I typically get a "build your own" option here - it's nearly always a 10" pepperoni pizza and my usual unsweetened iced tea. I eat for about $15. I will occasionally get breadsticks, though I didn't today. Today, I was basically told I could sit where I wanted. I picked a comfy 4-top near a window. This building was fairly new when opened a bit over ten years ago. So, unlike most of Fort Ben there are not really accessibility issues. That said, a couple of the parking spots are not ADA compliant and that always leaves me asking "Why?" There are a couple of truly ADA compliant spots. I have definitely had occasions when I passed by Jockamo because accessible parking as not available. They serve up the usual selection at all three locations including a wide variety of pizza options easily customized, a variety of appetizers, beer/wine, salads, sandwiches, a lunch special menu, and more. Vegetarians can easily get by here - My sense is that Vegans can, but I won't swear to it. I ordered my usual. The pepperoni pizza was good with ample toppings that were generous without being decadent. The crust was nicely crisped, though not burnt. Again, this is not my favorite Indy pizza. However, I consistently like it. I think where Jockamo tends to excel is in customer service and that was also top-notch today. Jockamo offers free Wi-Fi. They also carry local art work AND give 100% of the proceeds (cash only) to the artist. I love that. During warmer months, they do have outside dining options. They also have a bar area that is not kid-friendly. The rest of the dining room is family friendly. I still prefer this location. Irvington is the original - it's got a great vibe, but I'm just a Fort Ben dude. I like this spot and I love this area. During the week, they also have lunch specials that are awesome including slice options. I'm not around Fort Ben during the week as I work downtown, but I really like the specials and go for them when I can. Good pizza. Great people. An environment that is warm and welcoming. Ten years later, I still love Jockamo. read more

I have been here multiple times. This location has great service. I used to come here for lunch when I worked in the area due to them having a lunch special. The lunch special is definitely worth the price because you get a lot for the price. The restaurant and ambience is clean and organized inside. Jockamo does a wonderful job at giving back into the community. The employees are very cheerful and you can tell they enjoy their work they do there. The times I have been here I haven't dealt with an employee who had an attitude due to having to work. read more

I love going and sitting outside when the weather is nice. Irvington is full of nostalgia so it's nice to people watch and grab a bite. Service was great, they cater to your needs without bugging you too much which I appreciate. My favorite option is the spinach and bacon salad but I opted for the Cheese Louise this trip with some Gouda added. It was fantastic. read more

Maybe I ordered wrong. The pizza wasn't that good to me. The salad was okay but most of their salads come with iceberg lettuce but she was able to swap for romaine for me. read more

My Indy family (6 in total) and I ate here after church service one Sunday afternoon back in summer 2019. I know it's a long overdue review. LOL! I recall it was pretty busy so we decided to eat out on the patio section. It was a beautiful sunny day. We ordered several pizzas: -Chicken Alfredo pizza -Caprese pizza -Cajun pizza -Mediterranean pizza -Buffalo Chicken pizza We all shared so we can get a taste of each one. They were ok and average. Sadly, not as tasty or impressive. I don't know that I'll return. I may give them another try in the future. read more

This is all around solid pizza! I had not been in awhile, so I was pleased to see a lunch menu option! It's the perfect set up! I had a four meat slice, with bread sticks, ranch and marinara, as well as Dr. Pepper! Savory and delicious, plus a great price! Staff was very friendly and on top of it! Def go to Jockamos! read more

We ordered the Cheese Louise and Sweet Caroline for dinner delivery -- and both were fantastic! The Cheese Louise truly lives up to its name; it's easily one of the cheesiest pizzas I've ever had. And if you're a fan of pepperoni and hot honey, you'll love the Sweet Caroline. What started as a spontaneous order quickly turned into a new favorite for future pizza nights. Thanks! read more

My colleague and I were able to walk to Jockamo from across the parking lot which made it quite convenient. Especially since they had a special for $4 draft beer. Destiny was our server and did a wonderful job keeping my beer glass full. I ordered the Lazyboy pizza. They certainly have quite the selection of specialty pizza which you can build yourself or just go with their creations. Since it was taco tuesday, I almost went with that type of themed pizza, but realized I really wanted mozzarella and toppings. The Lazyboy provided a blend of different veggies plus ham, sausage and pepperoni. The crust was good. Unfortunately even the small size was too big. My colleague had the house salad and the Caprese pizza with added chicken. I think she could only finish 3 slices, but said it was very good. read more

Really like the Irvington location! Homey and friendly staff. Does not accept reservations, yet well worth the wait on busy days. Comfy seating. Tables well spaced. Food delicious with options plenty for diet conscious needs. read more

This might be polarizing, but Jockamo is just OK, in my opinion. I've heard nothing but rave reviews about this pizza joint, and it's been on my list of must-visit places for a while. Maybe I built it up in my head? In any case, it was alright. It could have been because we ordered two medium pizzas. Medium pizzas never taste as good as large or extra large! I think it has something to do with the ratio of crust to sauce and cheese. We got one Meatball Pizza (meatballs, green pepper, red onion, extra sauce) and one pepperoni. The meatballs were actually really good, and it made me wish I would have gotten the meatballs and ricotta appetizer, which is on the menu and I was so close to getting. Maybe next time. Jockamo has a nice little patio, which we took advantage of on a nice day. The patio was especially appreciated because we had our dog with us. (Yes, dogs are allowed on the patio!) read more

Went for lunch. Special are priced well. Salad is lacking, just lettuce and tomato. Would like to see more variety. Slice was large. Pepperoni is a bit spicy for me but crust was crispy. read more

Although I've only been 3 times over the last 2 year, this isn't the first time I've left a good review for Jockamo. Today I was near by and STARVING. I decided to try it again but this time get something completely different. I tried the spinach-artichoke bread off the appetizer menu. Amazing. Looked different than I imagined as I thought it would be like spinach and artichoke dip on bread. I don't know, but every part was delicious and the marinara paired with it set it off. I ate the whole thing by myself. Service was great just as every time I've been. The restaurant was clean and tidy too. Today around 2 pm it was pretty empty, but I've drove by many times at noon and the parking lot has always been packed. read more

One of our favorite dining and watering holes after golf at The Fort. Always good food and decently prompt service. We are a group of 8 to 10 so not an easy table by any means. Beer selection from local breweries is good. Pizzas and salads are top notch. Favorites are the Slaughterhouse Five, Basil Pesto and Spinach salad. I love that I can get half & half of specialty pies. Mine is a Creole Shrimp (though I miss the crawfish option) and the new Inferno. Busy place and satisfying as ever. read more

First time at this location. Pizza was delicious and a strong 4 stars. Cool vibe inside. This location has two levels and a lot of seating. While our server was nice and working so hard, he was the only one working the bar and bar dining room and he couldn't keep up. At one point they were out of glasses and then plates. We had to wait for a new box of glasses to be opened and washed (which this same guy did) and more plates to come up from the back. We understand busy nights and we don't mind waiting and we definitely felt for the guy hustling hard trying to keep up (which included clearing tables too), but the service element was two stars are best. We initially thought maybe they were short staffed, but we saw a bunch of staff around, so maybe some management issues going on? Not sure. Having said all that, we enjoy the pizza enough that we'll hope this was just an off night and give it another try sometime. We've also been to their two other locations and had excellent experiences all around, so I'd still recommend Jockamo's. read more

Jockamo pizza never disappoints! They have a huge selection of pizzas and everyone can find something new and original that they'll like. My personal favorite is the Sweet Caroline. The sweet honey and savory meats makes it the best pizza ever. The place itself is huge and has a more modern vibe to it. Plenty of dining room seating with a private space as well. The bar feels a little small for a typical pizza place I'd say, but there are plenty of tables. My only negative is that the service isn't usually great when I go there. They're always friendly, but it usually takes a while before you get service and I end up feeling like I could have been checked on more often. Still a great place to catch up with friends, play a few bar games, or have a quick dinner! read more

Brian (Manager), and his staff are AMAZING! They were able to make some accommodations for my grand child's first birthday, at the last minute, creating a successful and wonderful event.

Where else can you get a lunch special for under $10?! Only at Jockamo! Weekdays until 3pm you can get a slice, drink and your choice of salad or breadsticks for $7 or less! I even added an additional side to my lunch and total was still under $10! Plenty of seating indoors or out at the Fort Ben location so wait is never long when I come. read more

Yummy pizza conveniently located and a super friendly staff.

The pizza? Delish. The crust, especially, was well made! read more

I love this pizza place. The staff are so friendly and kind. I suggest to get the lazy boy pizza it is so delicious and their Greek salad.

I mostly order takeout from this location, but have dined in a few times with good experiences. Today I ordered a pizza to go, our favorite "Cheese Louise" with bacon on the side. It was hot and delicious, and ready on time. There were several people picking up orders at the same time I was but the process was efficient with several employees assisting. I used to say that the food here wasn't quite as good as the Irvington location, but our pizza tonight was perfect. read more

My friends and I absolutely loved the food at Jockamo's! All the pizzas we had were delicious, even the gluten free crust one. The restaurant wasn't too busy, but we didn't get great service. However, the food made up for it! If you're ok with a wait, it's worth it! read more

I am a huge pizza lover. I've lived in many states and two countries and research pizza places wherever I live, and try to make a point to get to most. I did that with Jockamo's, driving 30 minutes, looking forward to trying it. The bar was a joke, it was like an afterthought, with no designated bartender. No ambiance, and I noticed fruit flies flying around. ( anyone knows that is not a good sign ) Random servers in and out of the bar, all ignoring me except one. I ordered a personal pizza with 4 toppings. I was shocked when it came out. Just by looking at it, it looked as hard as cardboard and FROZEN. The crust was like something you would expect on a Tombstone crust! Hard, tasteless and just did not seem fresh! The body of the pizza was not much better. Hard as well, I swear to god this was a frozen pre-made pizza that just had toppings thrown on it. This is the first time in 20+ years that I took leftovers with me and threw them out. What a joke. If the people of Indy think this is a good pizza place, they obviously are used to eating frozen at home. Futuro, Ale Emporium, King Dough aren't even in the same league. Go spend your money somewhere else. This place needs new staff, a good cleaning, and fresh dough! read more

I've only been here once so far and it was good but overpriced. I know my coworkers go here often though for lunch.

Service was rather slow but very friendly. Pizza and breadsticks were extremely bland and flavorless. Not worth the trip. Place was clean.

There was a request for Italian Beef for dinner. I was going to be driving by Jackamo's before and thought we could try their sandwich. I explained that I wanted to be able to heat up the sandwich at home later. A kitchen staff member happened to be working the register and took my order. He carefully partially constructed the sandwiches so when I go home I could pop them in the oven and serve hot. This extra effort was greatly appreciated. Got home, reheated everything and sat down to eat! Pretty darn tasty. And of course they use Turano rolls. Tasty. . We will have those Italian Beef Sandwiches again, nice job Jackamo's. read more

So sad to hear how rude this server was. I have been so excited to try Jockamos Upper Crust pizza for quite a while. I drove by it quite frequently but one day decided to stop in with my daughter and her friends. Had a very rude waiter named Joey. I noticed he was extremely jittery as if he was on some substance. Very off putting. But the icing on the cake was when he treated my daughters black friend poorly. Spoke to her extremely disrespectfully and adressed the white people with utmost respect. Very disheartening, ruined my appetite. But OK food. read more

My group of 13 car enthusiasts dined in here on a Friday night. They were fairly busy. We ate on the patio. In between swatting gnats and bugs most of the night, we had a good time. Their menu offers a big selection and everyone was able to get something to their liking. Most ordered pizza, but one tried a sandwich and another a salad. Both enjoyed. I tried the breadsticks and a Maui pizza. Crust was thin, toppings were plentiful with just the right amount of sauce. There was a slight mixup in the kitchen, but the staff quickly corrected the issue and offered credits and apologies. Everyone enjoyed their food. read more

This place is a complete total and utter dump. They need to do some major steam cleaning the place where they have you sit while wait the floors the crud! that door going to the back room. God only knows what they're doing back there! This place is filthy and the workers look hideous! Filthy aprons, wiping their heads, touching their hats with gloves on to make you think they're doing the right thing, but they're touching everything in sight with gloves on their hair, their hat, their face, their nose, their neck and the filthy counters and doors this place is a literal dump. Haven't been here in seven years and I doubt if I'll go back, the pizza, was just okay the mozzarella chewed like rubber. read more

Overall good experience. The inside was bigger than expected and is definitely a family friendly spot. The ceasar salad was delicious- less of a ceasar flavor and more garlic- but yummy nonetheless.
