Great service and nice staff but food average and over priced. There is a nice atmosphere and band playing quietly in the back ground so if you don't like loud music, give it a go!

The food at Jojo's is great. The live band was very nice and not too loud. It's a bit expensive compared to the other Restaurants nearby.

A bit pricier than some of the other restaurants close by but thought we'd try it out. People were friendly (there again I didn't met anyone in Gambia that wasn't) food was ok, I got 2 huge pork chops that were cooked perfectly but I wasn't keen on the accompaniments that came with it. (maybe personal choice). Also it would... More

If you want a great setting, perfect service and fabulous food you should go here. It is more expensive than some of the other restaurants you get what you pay for and this restaurant has never disappointed me.

Definately worth a visit. Steaks were absolutely gorgeous and the service very good. A lovely evening. Our most expensive night, but worth it.

From the reviews we read on tripadvisor we expected ambiance and good price/value. Unfortunately both were not as you might expect, the entrees were partly cold and it was our most expensive bill by far. In comparison to the other available restaurants JoJo's is far overpriced, especially given the quality of the food. Not one we will revisit.

Lovely food, but not much atmosphere on the night we went there. One man with a guitar playing blues music was pleasant.

Best of the bunch in Senegambia. Good steaks and seafood. Was better in 2010, but guess its suffering from economic downturn. Seemed as though there were less customers and food of poorer quality but still better than most. Worth a visit.

We went twice to this restaurant as it is a lovely setting with beautifully set tables, first class service, live band and an innovative menu. The first time we were amazed at the high standard of the rolled sole dish we had ordered, beautifully garnished and cooked to perfection - easily the best on the strip. Sadly on our second... More
