Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews

Shojo in Boston offers a vibrant atmosphere with "immaculate vibes" and "INSANE" food that consistently impresses. While some diners found service issues and occasional closure without notice, the creative menu, particularly "top 5 burgers," wins over many. Reservations are recommended to fully enjoy this "fun place" with "great" vegetarian options.

Pros: great vibes, excellent service, creative drinks Cons: at least for vegetarian diners, few options, could have been better flavored, expensive given the portions, shouting to be heard over the noise

Awful service with so much attitude. Even a request for water was met with a look of disdain

Excellent service, delicious mocktails, but the food was subpar. The shadowless fries tasted super off, like there was some alcohol in the kimcheese that didn’t quite burn off or meld with the other flavors. Burger was fine but way overcooked. Pork belly bao buns were 95% pork fat. I’s come here again for drinks but definitely not dinner.

I cannot say enough about Shojo. Every time I go it gets better. The vibes are immaculate and the food is........INSANE. I finally tried the Shojonator and it was top 5 burgers I've ever had. I will keep coming back and tell anyone and everyone to try it!!!

Booked a reservation for lunch and arrived only to find the restaurant closed, no signs, no one on site. Not sure if the place is still in business.
