Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We were recommended Jo Jo’s by friends and it didn’t disappoint. An extensive menu and all the food we chose was superb. The service was excellent and a lovely ambience. We will definitely be back. Thank you.

Excellent as always. We have eaten many times at Jojos when we were first introduced by friends and we keep coming back. Every time is excellent, the food, staff and the restaurant itself are as good as it gets. We introduced my father who has...visited us a few times since we moved to Whitstable 2.5 years ago and Jojo's is now his favourite restaurant (at 86 years old he has a lot of knowledge and experience of fine dining!) Thank you for your superb service and food. We've got some more friends down soon and will be coming back to see you. For us the best restaurant in Whitstable.More

We have been trying to get to this restaurant for a long time and lucky for us, we managed to get a table. The food, service, ambience and vibe was excellent. We enjoyed Plaice, Mackerel, Kofte and a refreshing salad alongside. It was excellent.

Really wonderful restaurant with a very special warmth about it. The food is delicious and the service was just second to none. We've only eaten here once but I would struggle to think of anywhere else that has come close. Would really recommend.

We booked this restaurant for my friend's birthday. The staff were lovely, the food was amazing and plentiful, and the general ambience of the place was lovely. Beautifully decorated - the bar looked amazing. Two of our party ordered a sharing platter (I think it...was the mixed meat board) and I have never seen so much food. There was also an amazing aubergine dish, and the Greek salad was delicious! Nothing was too much trouble. I would love to go back next time I'm in Whitstable!More

By far the best seaside restaurant in Britain we've ever been to. The service, as almost all the reviews say, couldn't be bettered. And the quality of the food is outstanding. The Mackerel pate was the finest we've ever had. Totally fresh and pure tasting....And the grilled mackerel for the main course was perfectly cooked. It's not easy to make sure that fish is just right like this - neither too mushy or too tough. Fresh local food, simply but beautifully cooked, You'd think this was easy to do. But it's not, as most restaurants demonstrate to their disadvantage. But Jo Jos has the recipe perfected. Top, top marks!More

We arrived a little early, only to find that I had mistakenly forgotten to confirm our reservation. The staff set about finding us a table without delay and went to great lengths to ensure we were welcomed and comfortable. The Mezze was absolutely fantastic and...the Pollacks Goujons were the best battered fish I’ve ever eaten! There was such an attention to detail. I couldn’t rate Jojo’s high enough and I don’t know why it’s not number one. We’ll be back!More

This is the 2nd time I have visited Jojos and the food and service was very good on both sittings. I really appreciated the slightly less busy nature of the restaurant on the last sitting on a Sunday. I love the choice of small plates,...that are also offered as larger portions, the seafood dishes are a real favourite. Sitting by the window gave an extra special feel to thevisit. Will ne back again soon.More

Our meal at JoJo’s was superb. The restaurant is really well designed; it’s comfortable, vibrant, and a perfect mix between feeling busy but with your own space to enjoy your meal. The service we received was excellent. Staff are really easy to get along with,...very friendly and very good at their jobs! The food was very nice too. We had a mixed Meze and few small plates which was perfect for 4 people.More
