There will soon be a new place to hangout at Pointe Orlando as JoJo’s ShakeBAR is set to open on the lower level. Grand opening weekend is scheduled for Saturday, March 18 and Sunday, March 19, 2023.
The Chicago-based brand bills itself as a “next-generation restaurant and bar serving 80s and 90s nostalgia, diner fare, hand-crafted cocktails, decadent desserts, and of course, its over-the-top Biggie Shakes.”
The modern, yet familiar, diner experience is grounded in nostalgia and focuses on creative desserts and elevated diner favorites. A Saturday and Sunday Brunch will also be served from 11am to 2pm.
Beyond the food, JoJo’s has a specialty cocktail program, a very pointed whiskey selection, and “the best two draught beers around that rotate seasonally.”
Spirits may be also added to all shakes and hot chocolates such as BACARDÍ rum, Jameson Irish whisky, and more.
The inside is designed to transport guests back to the 80s and 90s with vintage tongue-in-cheek details and nods to Central Florida’s iconic attractions, famous faces, and world-class hospitality with a custom mural on an entire wall of the restaurant.
Guests may opt for a center table to dine under JoJo’s signature glittering disco ball as bright pink neon clouds ‘drip’ from the ceiling, grab a seat at the Pastry Bar and enjoy a swing-out stool while watching JoJo’s chocolatiers dip gourmet treats, or sit outside on the patio on a nice day.
There’s even a walk-up window for treats on the go.
About JoJo’s ShakeBAR, founder Robbie Schloss says, “We take our work seriously but hope our guests don’t take us seriously. JoJo’s is about forgetting life’s stresses and enjoying good vibes in good company. Guests should indulge and enjoy a cheat meal and a boozy shake. JoJo’s is no place for a diet.”
The restaurant is located on the lower level of Pointe Orlando next to International Drive and valet parking. Both self and valet parking are available for a fee. Fun Fact: The restaurant is named after Robbie’s daughter.
