About Jojo's Beloved Cocktail Lounge
Finding it is half the fun: the lounge hides in a secluded corner of Colony Square, and inside the ceiling rises to cathedral height over red velvet stools, glowing neon arches, a mirror ball and a compact dance floor. The soundtrack is all vinyl, built on 70s, 80s and 90s disco, funk and dance classics, and Whitney Houston is the kind of track that fills the floor; some Friday regulars complain when the selection drifts toward current rap. Cocktails such as the Jungle Boogie win praise, and the bartenders get credit for skill and speed. It opens at 5 p.m., closing at midnight Monday to Thursday and 2 a.m. on Friday and Saturday, with Sunday off. Tables book on Resy with a waitlist for full nights, every check carries a 20% automatic gratuity, a two-drink cap can apply when busy, and the host stand runs firm, which accounts for most of the complaints behind a 4.2 average.
