We believe that independent restaurants are the lifeblood of any thriving community. And when the original owner of JoJo’s Italian Restaurant & Pizza decided to sell the restaurant, we saw an amazing opportunity to share the food we love with the Olmsted community we love. It was about more than continuing a legacy, it was about contributing to it. Our family believes in using the best locally sourced ingredients and pairing them with scratch techniques that provide a one of a kind flavor. Family members are here working all aspects of the business from the kitchen, to the table and bar. Our team will take you on a hand-guided culinary tour of Italy as we know it and presented with professionalism and the warmth of your grandmother's dining room table.
We couldn't be more proud or grateful to support and be supported by the wonderful community here in Berea, our current location. We'd like to welcome you to the Jo Jo Carloni family. It is our privilege to serve you.

    Outstanding service from Mattie (Maddie) she was on top of everything the whole night. Food is always good but a bit pricey for pasta entrees, side salad is not worth the $7 but their homemade dinner rolls are worth the visit alone.

    Jo Jo Carloni's Italian Restaurant & PizzeriaResponded 4 days ago

    We're absolutely thrilled to hear that Maddie ensured you had a fantastic dining experience with us. Thank you for giving us a try! Your kind words mean a lot, and we can't wait to welcome you back for more, especially those homemade dinner rolls you enjoyed so much.

    Staff members are very courteous, pleasant and accommodating. Decor is trendy industrial with an Italian touch. Food is fresh and delicious. The ambience is dark and only problematic for those of us looking at cataract surgery. Great place for a special occasion or pizza night. Both can be attended to with ease. Give them a try, your taste buds will be very happy!

    Our waitress was a young lady who was very sweet and made conversation with my wife and me. The place wasn't busy; there was no wait at all. The food was delicious and came out quickly. As a side note, they make their rolls out of pizza dough. It was worth the 15 minute drive.

    Food portions were above normal, arrived hot, and was of normal outstanding taste they provide. We enjoyed dining at their outside patio which decreased the ambient noise level (against an inside table). Our server was attentive to our needs and very sociable and engaging. Overall an outstanding dining experience.

    Our overall experience was really good. Our server was really welcoming and lovely. The service was prompt and efficient. The menu had a lot of options, including gluten free pizza. Everyone enjoyed their food and agreed everything was delicious. I would love it if they expanded their gluten free options. We really enjoyed our dinner and will definitely come back.
