Jozu is the best Asian food in Monmouth County. If you’re looking for the perfect rice bowl, look no further. This place is great. It’s also fresh, amazing, and fast. As an avid foodie and traveler, we are lucky to have this concept available to us in our own backyard. The rice is cooked to perfection. Most places just place ingredients on top of mushy steamed rice and call it a bowl. JOZU composes it’s dishes to perfection. Every ingredient is flawlessly executed. The proteins are flavorful and juicy, the slightly charred broccoli and togarashi take this bowl to the next level. This place is a weekly must
This place offers takeout but doesn't have proper containers for takeout. I ordered ramen and they put the soup right over the noodles and covered it with some flimsy cover. I have never experienced any restaurants adding soup to the noodles directly for take out orders for obvious reasons. I then noticed the bowl wasn't closed properly and told the cashier but instead of changing the container, she just put the same cover back and by the time I walked to the car, the whole bag was leaking. I was so put off by the whole crews' nonchalant manner, I didn't even return to complain.
This is my first time posting a review. If you're a fan of cafeteria-style ramen, this might be the place for you. However, it was missing all the essential qualities that make ramen truly delicious. I found it to be overpriced, and I would recommend saving your money instead of ordering the pork or beef skewers. The pork skewers are basically just small hotdogs, and the beef skewer tasted like it had been made the day before. #RamenTasteLess

For 12 dollars, I feel like it is worth it and not worth it, ramen portion was more on the low side and you have to buy pork belly in order to get it. Just comes with mushroom and an egg. I added the crab stick. Broth was moderate, nothing too special
Food is truly amazing, customer service is really good. Really accommodating too for allergies. Make sure you specify food needs beforehand.
Taste great but protein portions are laughably small. Expect to leave hungry. Also not open anytime except lunch on weekdays.

Staff is nice. Serving size is subpar. It’s $15 for 3 grilled shrimp that’s below my expectation and borderline rude.
king trumpet robata bowl came with 2 mushrooms. zero consistency
