    Pepperoni add banana peppers, bacon, and hot honey
    Lindsey C.

    I had Jockamo pizza a few years ago, but recently came in with a group on a Sunday evening. Service was A+, friendly and fast. The breadsticks are nice and fluffy. The pizza we got was good with a nice amount of toppings, but it just isn't one of my top pizzas in Indy. Not a huge fan of the cheese and the way it melts, but that is just personal preference! Love the big patio for nice days!

    10" build your own pizza
    John K.

    I got a 10 inch build your own pizza with regular pizza sauce, chicken and green peppers. The pizza crust was cooked nicely and it was crispy. Now that I see how they load the pizza with lots of cheese I will ask for light cheese next time. The abundance of cheese overpowers the rest of the pizza. I like how the pizza had larger slices of chicken and a nice quantity of pieces of green pepper. I received great service from Saysha. I like the upbeat and friendly vibe of the restaurant.

    10 inch pepperoni pizza

    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.

    Medium Lazy Boy!
    Brian G.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Sarah F.

    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!

    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.

    We split a house salad and a small pizza... both were excellent. Service was even better. And their playlist... amazing!

    Cheese Louise
    Sydney T.

    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!

    Lazyboy pizza
    David H.

    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.

    Cheese Louise with Goat Cheese added
    Dusti C.

    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.

I'm not a huge fan of Chicago style deep dish pizza but I hadn't had it in a few years. The crust was ok but not flaky enough. The sauce had a good tomato flavor and a bit on the chunky side. There were only a few pieces of sausage and the cheese was not very noticeable in the flavor profile. My Caesar salad was very good with lots of Parmesan cheese. The service left a lot to be desired. I'm not being critical of our server but rather the overall management of the service. They were very understaffed as servers were taking orders, bringing food and drinks, and clearing tables. The food came out of the kitchen slow. And there was one person (who I assume was a manager) who stood around with his arms folded, biting his nails, and doing nothing to help the servers. I'm sorry but if you are short staffed, roll up your sleeves and help clear tables or bring drinks. He did nothing while the servers ran from place to place. In the end, the food was ok but our experience lacked efficient service and I wouldn't go back to this Giordano's location again. There are a lot of other options in the area.

Many TVs at the bar, so it's a great spot to catch a game. I also liked the layout of the room - particularly the booths, in relation to where the TVs are.
