| - Their specialty is pizza and pasta, but if you are a soup lover like me, you will love Jo Jo's! Their Bacon Jalapeno Cheddar Soup basically changed my life. I was looking forward to ordering it on my second visit, but they didn't have it =( I was so disappointed because I planned on having a big bowl of that with their awesome house salad (tons of cheese, awesome dressing) and garlic bread (yeah I know, it's only garlic bread, but not at Jo Jo's!) for dinner. However, the disappointment did not last for long because instead of the Bacon Jalapeno Cheddar Soup, they were featuring a Spicy Pumpkin & Sausage Soup. I was skeptical at first because I'm not too keen on pumpkin flavors, but WOW was I impressed! The creamy pumpkin base was subtle,not overpowering at all! It paired well with the mild heat from the sausage. I fell even more in love with the soup when I found out that all of their soups were made from scratch =) They also have a nice selection of craft beers that weren't too expensive either. A lot of beers from Brooklyn Brewery. I had the Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout, which is now my favorite stout....better than Southern Tier's Choklat (which is hard for me to say because I am OBSESSED with Southern Tier Brewery). Other things to mention are the mozzarella balls (made with fresh mozzarella not previously frozen) and the calamari (the breading is authentic and flavorful). I just can't find a negative thing to say about this gem. I guess you will just have to try it out yourself, but I know you'll love it as much as I did.
