JoJo’s Bar is a modern Italian-American steakhouse located in Chagrin Falls, Ohio, renowned for its elegant yet approachable dining experience that blends classic steakhouse traditions with Tuscan-inspired cuisine. Opened in 2022 by entrepreneur Doody, JoJo’s Bar quickly established itself as a standout in Northeast Ohio’s culinary scene, revitalizing a historic local building that previously housed Gamekeeper’s Taverne. The restaurant’s transformation involved a year-long renovation, collaborating with the local Architectural Board of Review to preserve the historic cottage feel while introducing contemporary design elements, including baroque features, a checkered floor, chandeliers, and a fireplace. JoJo’s Bar is celebrated for its prime USDA Black Angus steaks, house-made pastas, and a menu that fuses Italian trattoria flavors with classic American chophouse fare. The restaurant’s affordability, especially for its high-quality offerings, has garnered praise, with cocktails and wines priced competitively. The space seats over 100 guests and features a vibrant barroom, as well as JoJo’s Backyard, an outdoor oasis with a live-fire Argentine grill, flower walls, and casual seating, creating a country club-like atmosphere. Led by Executive Chef Landon Barnes and General Manager Mark Kawada, JoJo’s Bar has received positive press from local publications like Cleveland Magazine and Cleveland Scene, highlighting its unique blend of luxury and accessibility. The restaurant’s commitment to hospitality, design, and culinary innovation has made it a community favorite and a model for modern restaurant concepts that honor tradition while embracing contemporary trends.
