    Found myself in Benson after dropping off a dog for a grooming appointment and realized I was running on nothing but caffeine, so breakfast at Jojo's Diner it was! It was a weekday around 10:30 AM, so the vibe was relaxed and not too busy -- perfect for a mid-morning bite. They've got some great weekday specials, and I went for the one where you pick three items for $10 (plus coffee or juice included -- love that!). I chose pancakes, chorizo patties, and scrambled eggs, expecting a modest plate... but wow, the portions here are no joke. Three giant pancakes, two chorizo patties, and fluffy eggs later, I realized I'd be taking half of it home. The pancakes were classic and comforting -- nothing fancy, just really solid diner pancakes. The chorizo patties didn't have a ton of kick but were still good paired with a little syrup (don't judge me). My server was the only one working the floor, but she was super friendly and impressively efficient. All in all, Jojo's is the kind of place that reminds you why diners are such gems -- hearty food, fair prices, and a cozy, come-as-you-are atmosphere. Definitely worth a stop if you're in Benson and craving a no-frills breakfast that hits the spot.

    My first time here - looks great!

    I was pretty disappointed with my Patty O'Melty. A little sprinkle of finely diced raw onion was not what I was hoping for here. I was expecting that the "drunken onions" would be at least sautéed. Maybe I was supposed to be drunken to appreciate them. 2 patties, sprinkle of raw onion, no sauce, single cheese slice, rye bread. So...we got the patties, but coming up short on the "melt". Pretty dry. Fries were ok, but the problem is that they weren't salted, and this was a to-go order. No salt was included. The place looks cool, and was clean and inviting. My order was ready quickly. I'm giving 4 stars because I think this could have been better dine-in, or at least we could try to make it better. It was a pretty good price, burger + fries for $13. But it was not very tasty. I would be willing to come back and try something else sometime.

    Not to say there isn't decent food here but the experience we had was underwhelming. There seemed to be an issue with the food matching what the menu offered. Caesar salad didn't have grilled chicken or cheese, and they added tomatoes...which I picked off and the server clearly noticed but didn't acknowledge. They were out of fries at 5pm on a Saturday - the kiddos didn't mind though and did state they had the best tater tots to exist. Mac and cheese was not rotini pasta but rather elbow pasta, which can be forgiven but it was not very flavorful either. Pancakes offered whipped butter and seasonal preserves but did not receive those either, just a cup of maple syrup and packaged butter. Service was quick but not warm and inviting. Had to ask for multiple items like silverware and napkins, at one point our server had to "run across the street"?Restaurant was not busy, maybe two tables upon arrival. Food came out almost immediately after ordering which was great for our hungry bellies. Not sure what is to blame for these issues we encountered, maybe the cooks were not trained properly on plating and recipes or we came at an off time?? The photos on other reviews look phenomenal but that's not what was served to us. Also, no kids menus are offered. Thought a cute little diner would be more kid friendly. Even though they walked away satisfied, I'm not sure I'll visit again considering I did not receive what I ordered and yet paid the prices listed.

    We stopped in for brunch at Jojo's as the menu looked like some interesting twists on traditional brunch dishes. The restaurant has a fun diner vibe which is perfect for breakfast. We ended up ordering a short rib hash, a Nashville hot chicken sandwich and horchata pancakes. The horchata pancakes were absolutely killer. Both the Nashville hot chicken and the short rib hash badly needed salt as it seemed the cooks forgot to apply any at all. The short rib also unfortunately leaned slightly on the drier side, but it did have good flavor after salting. Our server was very nice, checked on us frequently and we were able to chat for a bit after our meal. I'd come back as I'd like to explore a bit more of the menu and the dishes were reallllly close to being a home run (just remember to salt!)

    Chicken Parm

    Brother suggested we stop here for brunch while in the area. Glad we did! It was fabulous! Starting with no wait, followed by a wonderful waitress and food. I had the Chicken Parm sandwich, which was really good, the fries were cooked to perfection, crispy and soft in the middle. My brother had the Chicken fried steak with eggs, hashbrown and a pancake. We both dabbled in a 1/2 order of biscuits and gravy. We waited a bit for this but it was worth it! Definitely made fresh! Everything was hot and delicious. Fell in love with our waitress and can't wait to go back to see her and try some other dishes.

    I was excited to get to Jojo's Diner in Omaha, Nebraska. My first diner in months, but also my first diner in Nebraska. Living on the west coast, it feels as if diners are fleeting moments, but I try to get to them when I can. We hit up Jojo's Diner on the way out. I wasn't terribly hungry, but I still wanted to get to a diner. There are three locations, and we opted for the location on Military Avenue because it was on our way to the airport. Jojo's Diner Atmosphere: The outside of Jojo's Diner doesn't scream diner. It's located on a main street and is walkable, but it's not a standalone building like you imagine most diners are. Is that bad? No. When you walk into Jojo's Diner, it looks like everything you imagine in a diner. There are brightly colored walls, retro tables, and booths. Plus, you can sit at the counter and watch them make meals. I always love an open layout where I can watch them cook. Jojo's Diner Food: Jojo's Diner's menu has almost anything you want in a diner. It's not a huge menu like some of the East Coast options, but there are plenty of good diner foods. I decided on the avocado toast and one of the salads. I started with one of the salads. I was surprised when it had ranch dressing. I'm not a huge ranch fan, so it wasn't my favorite salad. It had fried chicken, coconut shreds (interesting), lettuce and strawberries.The salad was fresh but ranch dressing was not great. The Avocado Toast was tasty. I've never had avocado toast at a diner before and why I gravitated towards it. It tasted good, and I was a big fan. I would definitely order it again. Service: The Service was ok. I was kind of disappointed that we arrived there and it took a bit for anyone to even acknowledge we were there (and they weren't busy). Once they did, our food was ready fast, so I can't complain about that. It seems like a lot of people have issues with the service here. :-( Cost: $ I am used to California prices, so the fact that I could walk with a salad and toast for $14 was a good deal to me. Most meals are around $10, which is how diners should be. Would I Come Back? I enjoyed my food at Jojo's Diner, and I would probably come back. Was it my favorite diner ever? No, but it was a good stop. I would definitely try something else though.

    Here I am at JoJo's again but this time in Benson instead of West O. The place is smaller than West O, but definitely has a diner vibe with the tiny black and white behive floor tiles and bright colors. I'd come here again because of the chairs-- so tall but not stools and easy to get up from. The floor is also great for pulling your chair up to the table. Bookguy discussed ordering chicken fried steak or chicken fried chicken, with Brandon, the waiter, because he often finds the dish too dry. Brandon suggested the chicken and Bookguy was very pleased with it. He enthusiastically said he would get it again, high praise indeed. I wanted a vegan waffle with seitan, but they don't serve that anymore. I ended up with a patty o'melty, which is, of course, a patty melt. The sandwich had two beef patties along with mozzarella cheese, onions, and chow chow on rye. I don't know what chow chow is, but it didn't make any difference to me, because it seemed like a normal, but extra meaty patty melt. I only ate half, and a few of the French fries which seemed slightly under cooked. Brandon was an attentive waiter and brought my to go box for the 1/2 sandwich before I even asked. We liked everything about JoJo's and will be back to try other menu items.

    Breakfast burritos
    Chad C.

    Came here for breakfast on a weekend morning, and sat at the bar. Ordered the breakfast burritos (fried) and some orange juice. The service was amazing, I believe it was the owner (or maybe just the manager). However, every other employee was either sitting down, or completely inattentive. The owner/manager had to keep disciplining her employees and it was a tad awkward for patrons. As I said, the service was great, but the food was rather atrocious. The burritos were extremely over-fried, almost like a gas station roller. The silver lining was that the manager (or owner), was very kind and attentive, but it just couldn't make up for the food unfortunately.

    Undercooked hash browns and 'soft' scrambled eggs

    The breakfast potatoes had to be sent back due to being undercooked and without the loaded toppings. They returned them like this. Needless to say they were returned a second time. Our server appeared uninterested in serving. We had to ask for coffee refill. I had good expectations based on the pictures and reviews, but will not be returning.

    Benedict and Blueberry Pancake

    Great brunch spot! Affordable and plenty of options, but not overly impressive. Great place if you want some options though. When we went they were extremely short staffed and it showed, but really no issues. Popular place for brunch and I appreciate how late they serve it!

    We were a party of 8 on a Sunday morning. We called other places and the wait was 2 hours...then we found Jojo's! It was a perfect little neighborhood diner. Coffee strong, service good & the food was so yummy. With 8 people we had a variety of items, from a breakfast sandwich all the way up to peanut butter banana pancakes. Everyone was happy. I would suggest you get their sausage Pattie's. They use a homemade recipe and it was so flavorful! If in Omaha and you like to explore the off the beaten path, go here in the Benson ar

DP ordered Lemon Berry Pancakes, a plate-filing short stack of goodness. I'd like to say it tasted as good as it looked, but I couldn't tell as DP chowed down like a hound from hell. In a good way, of course. She did allow me to share her Maple Braised Bacon (meaning that I was able to snatch a piece while she wasn't looking). Really, really fine, something I'd definitely order again. For me. Not to share. I had the Schnitzel Bennie with tart cherry jam and lemon hollandaise. Sound unusual? Tasted great! My only gripe was that the pork cutlet was a bit small and could have used a bit more seasoning in the breading. Would I order it again? You betcha! Service was fast and efficient. The decor was quirky and inviting but the space was loud enough that it was really hard to carry a conversation. Overall rating: yahoo!

We said first available seats, which ended up being at the end of the bar. More about that later... I ordered the vegan standard and hubs ordered the banana bread French toast. The server was friendly and the food came out in a timely manner, considering the place was packed. Regarding the vegan standard, it seems they have cut back on the amount of tofu scramble and increased the amount of hashbrowns, which was a little bit disappointing. As usual it was very tasty though! I tried a bite of the hubs French toast and it was VERY unique and tasty! II will be getting that next time. I was disappointed to hear that they haven't brought back the vegan biscuits and gravy, but maybe once again they will! So the food was great but our experience, not so much, based on where we were sitting. I feel like they should not even use the last spot at the bar to seat a patron. Right next to where I was sitting is the place they bring the clean silverware to dry it off, then they would toss it into the silverware holder. The noise was very annoying and they did nothing to try to even be quiet about it. The other thing about that location is the register is pretty much right in your face, like 15 inches directly in front of me and someone was pretty much there the whole time. Other areas of the bar wouldn't be quite so bad, but next time we will wait longer to get a table or sit at the bar top that looks outside instead of at all the workers doing their thing and talking to each other. Other than the location of where we sat this visit, this is still one of our top spots for a yummy vegan breakfast, and we will be back!

This Breakfast/Brunch gem features a U shaped bar flanked by booths on either end of the room. Walking into this place feels like walking into a Time Machine from when it was opened in 50s or 60s (website said 1968). Regardless it hasn't changed much and that's the charm of it all. The background story of who Harold was captures the American spirit and the wall decorated with his war medals brings it all home and bolsters the charm of this place. In addition to Harold's story, the business also has some Hollywood charm. We sat diagonal from the booth that Jack Nicholson sat in for the 2002 film "About Schmidt" where he played a retired insurance agent from Omaha (the film was also mostly filmed on location). You'll know if you're in the booth because there is a gold plaque commemorating the booth. The servers were fast and friendly. This diner is known for their homemade cake donuts, cinnamon rolls, and pecan rolls; we unfortunately did not partake as we were too full. Prices were reasonable and as stated before, you get a lot of food. Bottom line: if you need a brunch spot and you have the time, go check out this dime of a diner...you won't regret it.
