    One if the best meals we’ve had in a long time. Every dish was beautifully and intentionally crafted. The tempura was one of the most surprising bites I’ve ever had. Service was outstanding. Decor was simple and elegant. Will definitely come back!

    Outstanding food and lovely service. We were unfortunately late, due to the heavy traffic related to the Christmas lights in Roppongi. The restaurant staff were very kind to us, despite being late. This restaurant is highly recommended.

    This was my first true omakase dining experience and it was easily the best meal I've ever had. You can taste and feel the care and craftsmanship that goes into each dish. I highly recommend this to anyone especially if you are interested in wagyu.

    Everything was exceptional! I love watching Jo (and everyone else) meticulously work their magic to serve us the most scrumptious courses. They are very accommodating of my husband’s needs as well since he has dysphagia and he takes some time to finish his food. I can tell that they adjusted their pacing for him and it was very considerate.

    The whole vibe of the place as well was great. Since there’s only limited seating, I enjoyed my time there a little bit more knowing how intimate the setting is.

    This was one of the most incredible meals I’ve ever had. Every dish was sublime, and the team of chefs made sure everyone in at the counter enjoyed everything (both the food and the atmosphere). I highly recommend JO to anyone.

    This was our first stop of fine dining on a two week trip in Japan and it set the bar exceedingly high. It can only be said that the staff and service were outdone by the food itself. It was truly a memorable experience and words alone could not do them justice.
