    Food was good! Everything’s pretty expensive, but that’s the norm for Boston. Atmosphere and service are great too

    Have been to Hojoko a few before but came in for the burgers as a reviewer call them Top 5 in Boston. Although solid, the burger was not life changing. More importantly, however, was the fact that one burger came out lightning fast while the other took almost 15 minutes. The poor server tried to apologize but honestly, we were not appeased. Tipped the requisite 20% but think this kind of screw up just should not happen. Great vibe in the place but we left sorely disappointed.
