Japanese restaurant expands with second location in Bergen

Tojo’s Restaurant is coming to Ho-Ho-Kus next month. It is Tojo’s Kitchen’s sister restaurant in Paramus, although described as more “contemporary in style”.

Tojo san graduated from Meiji Gakuin University with a law degree and moved to the United States from Japan about 9 years ago. He started marketing for a sake brewery in Chiba, Japan, and eventually opened his first ramen store at Garden State Plaza.

The menu will include ramen, donburi, appetizers and “authentic drinks”. Ramen takes 60-72 hours to make – from boiling the pork bones, straining the bones, removing the oil from the pot and turning it into broth. Tojo claims this is just a ramen restaurant in Bergen County that boils its own broth.

They’ll serve lunch and dinner — al fresco dining may be available during the summer — in the 500-square-foot space with about 25 seats.

Their pre-opening launch is currently scheduled for April 11 from noon.
