Hojoko Boston Reviews
It's OK.
Drinks solid. Service kind of slow. Food was hit or miss. Wings solid. Chicken tail meh. Brussel sprouts meh. Potstickers decent. 5% hospitality fee kind of ridiculous. Rather go to citizens oyster if I'm looking for dinner in that area
I was very impressed.
Our server JJ was so attentive and kind. The vibe was fun, vintage posters, cool lighting, a disco ball, it was very synergistic. The spicy salmon and spicy tuna were both so fresh tasting and a perfect balance. Since I have gluten sensitivity they w
we loved this place it was such an interesting vibe!
we loved this place it was such an interesting vibe! everything on the menu is relatively small portions and are made to share. the wagyu cheeseburger was soo delicious, wish we ordered another one! everything came out very fast, as soon as it ready.
This restaurant came well recommended for their wagyu
This restaurant came well recommended for their wagyu burgers and their spicy miso ramen so we had to try... They were pretty good but not as amazing as they were blown up to be. The service was ok but not up to my expectations. I appreciated how the
Large venue attached to 'The Verb' hotel, which is a small
Large venue attached to 'The Verb' hotel, which is a small boutique hotel version of a Hard Rock hotel. Metered a street parking where you can find it, it's a busy high traffic street. Service was fast & friendly, food was basic
Went before a Red Sox game and was pleasantly surprised.
Their food and drinks were pretty good with some standouts. Their veggie wontons were delicious and really surprised me, the vegetarian "meat" was really good. The wings were also a pretty good, but I'd def recommend the gochujang over
LOVE it.
The vibe is really cool for day, can't wait to come back at night. Piper is such an awesome server! She recommended the Snow Crab California Roll, which is a must-have. The wasabi and soy sauce are made in-house (and I believe the pickled ginger
The food was pretty good.
Ingredients were fresh, and everything was cooked properly. Our server, Piper, was absolutely amazing and genuinely entertaining to talk to. On the other hand, this isn't an authentic Japanese experience, and maybe it's not supposed to be
I eat here and get takeout often because I am close.
I have never had a time where the food wasn't amazing! The service is always so nice and I even like to ask and try what their favorites are and get great recommendations. The restaurant has an amazing vibe on the inside feels very cozy but nice
I got the salad with crispy chicken on top.
Service was just ok - food came out at way different times for the entrees. Even though I ordered a salad it took way longer than a lot of other things. Also pretty overpriced for asian style tapas with small portions. The interior was very spacious
Poor experience
We wanted to share some feedback about a recent order. We ordered the Tuna Sushi Roll and the Shiitake Mushroom Tempura Roll. Unfortunately, the tuna roll arrived warm and the rice was pasty in texture. As sushi enthusiasts who even make it at home f
Hojoko? Don't go bro
I love the name. It should be, don't go bro. The service was horrible. The food was not appealing, and made me sick the rest of the night. We stayed at the Verb hotel, which is amazing, I love the hotel, and this place is attached. When I checke
Incredibly tasty 👍🏻👍🏻
Excellent lunch menu - service was fantastic and the food tasted even better! I cannot recommend this place more highly!
Good quality food and drink
We ate here as we were staying in the hotel next door. It was great, the food was excellent quality and not too expensive. It was Japanese with a twist rather than traditional but very very good. Cocktail list was also good and delicious - I had on
Average Japanese restaurant
Japanese restaurant next to the Verb hotel. Fairly large facility built around a bar. Food is uneven, excellent wagyu burger and miso soup. A simple salmon sashimi was mediocre however. High background noise. Wait staff okay but tends to rush you.
a platinum standard in quality
Wow. Just wow. Never in my LIFE could I have anticipated one place to have the best sushi, burger, AND fried chicken I've ever tasted, but here we are. Lets start with the Sake. My partner had the HEIWA SHUZO "KID" JUNMAI sake, whic
Had the salmon sashimi and the fries on the poolside patio
Had the salmon sashimi and the fries on the poolside patio during Porchfest. While the fries aren't my absolute favorite ever, they are nicely crispy and salted well. Bathroom: extra nice with actual hand towels, and is part of the adjacent hotel
A small little place next to Fenway, this place truly blew
A small little place next to Fenway, this place truly blew me away. It's got a dive bar vibe when you walk in, but the food is far beyond any bar food. Everything was phenomenal. I wasn't bothered by the fat things come as they're ready. We had every
Hojoko serves Japanese food with a bit of a twist.
.. it's mostly tavern style with a few traditional dishes that have some unique differences. I'd say it's good for drinks and apps. Service: attentive and fast but a bit strange. There were multiple people running our food and drinks over to us, whi
Been meaning to write a review for Hojoko to let management
Been meaning to write a review for Hojoko to let management know that the 3% they add on to the bill needs to be made more visible on the menu. The text is tiny, unreadable. Like make it REALLLLY BIG so that people can read it and know it. I was rea
Unique former Hojos turned rock 'n roll-themed Japanese
Unique former Hojos turned rock 'n roll-themed Japanese bistro with view of Fenway Park and a teeny tiny pool. What's not to love?
First thought when I entered and sat at the bar.
..dingy. I don't know what the cleanliness is like behind the scenes, but the place appears dirty. The bar looks like something from 1970. Decided to play it safe and try an app and drink first. The spicy tuna roll was decent, but you know, hard
If you want 3 bites of mediocre food for $50 that arrives
If you want 3 bites of mediocre food for $50 that arrives 45 minutes after ordering from a miserable server, this is the place for you. All around horrendous.
Although the food was AMAZING.
It might have been the most unorganized and unorthodox way of service. If a restaurant wants to send dishes out when they are ready, the other dishes shouldn't be more than 5 minutes behind at most. Around 45 seconds after ordering one dish came ou
Hojoko is the best! I was planning a work event in Boston
Hojoko is the best! I was planning a work event in Boston from across the country, and I came across this place while looking for a cool spot in the Fenway area. I reached out to their events team, and it was a perfect match from the start! Meredith
Fun date night spot.
Convenient location and delicious food. We got the wasabi roulette which was a lot of fun. Also reccomend the Chicken Katsu Curry.
HoJo rocks
I was unfamiliar with much of the food. Tried the tuna sashimi and Brussels sprouts and dumplings. All were excellent and a pleasant surprise given the unknown factor. A fun place with interesting patrons and staff. Worth a visit.
A must try in Boston
Prob the best burger I’ve ever had! Food was superb and service amazing. Highly recommend, reservations needed or can sit at bar.
21st birthday fun!
I hosted a surprise 21st birthday party for my niece at the Verb hotel and the entire team at Hojoko was incredible to work with--both with the planning (thanks Meredith!) and on the day of the dinner. There were 17 of us and the restaurant was super
Nice visit
Great place and good atmosphere. The drinks were good and the fried chicken hit the spot. Really enjoyed the place.
Connect with users posting reservations for Hojoko Boston
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Hojoko Boston. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Hojoko Boston at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Hojoko Boston page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* PerceptiveWash44, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's bid.
* PerceptiveWash44 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to PerceptiveWash44 for any questions Peter may have as PerceptiveWash44 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* PerceptiveWash44 now uses their connections at Hojoko Boston to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If PerceptiveWash44 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, PerceptiveWash44 receives the $200 reward which is credited to PerceptiveWash44's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Hojoko Boston!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
