“JoJo's ShakeBar is an 80s, 90s restaurant and bar. Super exciting, very complex menu, but we’re bringing back the nostalgia of my childhood… great music, and throwbacks, movies and TV shows playing,” said Robbie Schloss, owner & founder. “So, it’s a very immersive dining experience and we just want people to kind of create memories and see how things were and take them to a fun place.”

Here’s a look at the Scottsdale Quarter's newest business!

Schloss previously shared with ABC15 that his favorite milkshake was the Girl Scout.

The Girl Scout: “It’s a mint shake with chocolate dipped s'mores, a torched marshmallow and a cookie and all kinds of amazing things,” said Schloss.

According to Schloss, everything in their shakes, besides the cup and the straw, is edible. Although JoJo's ShakeBAR is known for its massive desserts, it also comes with brunch and dinner items.
