Enjoy a lovely dinner at one of the true jewels of the Bay Area's fine dining scene. Located in Oakland's Piedmont Avenue, Jojo Restaurant thrives as an elegant but comfortable home for exquisitely prepared, gourmet country French cuisine. Two of the Bay Area's most admired and respected chefs, Curt Clingman and Mary Jo Thoresen opened Jojo in late 1999 to realize their vision of a great restaurant. Previously Curt was a chef at Zuni Café and Olivetto. Mary Jo's cooked for twelve years at Chez Panisse and spent subsequent stints in kitchens from Provence to San Francisco, Tuscany to Bordeaux.

Every Jojo menu offers you three flights or courses, with generally five to eight selections comprising the choices for each course. Almost invariably, one will find among the entrée courses at least one meat, one fish, and one vegetarian dish.

Jojo also has a thoughtful and well-conceived wine list. More familiar wines from the Bordeaux, Burgundy, and Napa are complemented on the list with superb, lesser known wines from Loire, Languedoc, the Rhone, Oregon, and Corsica.

This is a culinary treat not to be missed!
