Jōji does not run a walk-up line so much as a booking scramble: the restaurant's own FAQ states reservations 'will be available online 14 days in advance' via Resy for parties up to four, meaning demand concentrates into a narrow release window rather than a physical queue (Jōji Reservations FAQ, jojiny.com).
Once a date's tables are gone, Jōji funnels hopefuls into a Notify waitlist and contacts guests if a table frees up, and the restaurant enforces steep 48-hour cancellation fees ($225 dinner, $160 lunch per person) that underscore how tightly seats are held to actual demand rather than overbooked and no-showed (Jōji Reservations FAQ, jojiny.com).
