I received rude and slow service at this restaurant and I will not be returning. I decided to leave after paying for my food and before it arrived due to the disrespectful way I was treated. View all feedback.

Absolutely delicious tofu katsu (see pic! and amazing value. Got this and 2x2 servings of gyoza for £7.

Despite a mixed bag of reviews, JOA offers an Asian cuisine experience with a loyal customer base nearby for lunch. While some noted hygiene issues and rude service, others praised the delicious food, generous portions, and friendly service. The Halal status and variety of menu options make JOA a must-visit. Whether you enjoy spicy dishes, dumplings, or cheese tteokbokki, there seems to be something for everyone. While the restaurant has changed ownership and undergone some challenges, it remains a hidden gem in Kingston for those craving quick, flavorful, and affordable Asian cuisine.

The customer service was poor and the food made me sick, I woke up in the middle of the night with stomach problems. I do not recommend this restaurant.

The chicken was undercooked, and now I am suffering from salmonella. My stomach feels terrible, like a war zone. Not worth the risk at all.
