Overall: I used to come here specifically for their Gan Ba Chicken Wings before they renovated a couple years ago. Returned to see if their Gan Ba Chicken Wings are the same and to check out their Vermicelli bowls, both were good for a HK cafe spot. Everything is priced reasonably, quick yet friendly service, and clean setting. Would come again to try the HK food!Food: The Vermicelli with Lemongrass Chicken and Imperial Roll $11.95) had all the toppings peanuts, fried garlic, green onion) that I appreciate. The chicken was cooked well with good flavor; however, I didn't taste any lemongrass. The imperial roll is not the kind I usually receive from Vietnamese restaurants, which have a differe...
This spot has been on Ocean Avenue for years, but I only recently decided to check it out. It took me a while to review the menu, as it features everything from breakfast specials to chow fun. I opted for the Grilled Pork Garlic Noodle Plate for $11.95. It was a generous serving with a large heap of garlic noodles alongside marinated pork garnished with sesame seeds.
The dish also included a sweet dipping sauce, a side salad, and a fried imperial roll (photo: bit.ly/3Ll0GNf). It was a significant amount of food, which I assume is part of Jo Jo's reputation as a Hong Kong-style café. It was no surprise that there was a steady stream of locals picking up takeout orders. “Get back, get back....
I visited today and tried their snowy plover, which was unexpectedly refreshing. The renovation has given the restaurant a fresh look and the ambiance feels modern. I received VIP treatment from Joanne, which made my experience even better. We ordered the baked chicken served with spaghetti in tomato sauce and the salt and pepper pork chops over rice. If you're in search of a delicious meal in a clean restaurant, this is definitely the spot for you!
I want to keep this place a secret because it's just that good, but I have to share! Be sure to try the spicy garlic string beans, the baked pork chop (or any of its variations), and the chow mein chow fun. I would recommend skipping the pot stickers. You order and pay first before enjoying your meal, which I appreciate since it feels like a casual dining experience in Asia.

The HK cafe style food was good especially the baked rice! Their storefront is a little discreet and one could miss it if you walk by quickly. The service is order first and then grab a number to wait if you dine in. I really like their milk tea and the baked pork chop rice was very good! We also order their Pho and it was decent. We will be back again to try other stuff.
Good quality food at affordable prices.Their Hong Kong style milk tea are very testy and close to what I remember from Hong Kong. Their chicken wings are excellent. Baked Seafood over rice is our favorite. Too many good dishes. It is a hidden gem
Ordered eggs over easy, hash browns and bacon. The eggs were over cooked, came with French Toast. All I can say are the prices are very reasonable. I will give it another try and make sure the counter person understands my order.
The food was great, the prices were reasonable, and the staff was very friendly. I enjoyed the Hong Kong-style chow mein, which was excellent. I will definitely be coming back!

I don't recommend this restaurant at all. This is the third time I've ordered takeout, and each time I've only received about 35% of my order. I won't be returning.
