The food was very good (we really liked the burgers, steak, and steak specials). It’s a homey tavern feeling with lots of locals. Server was very nice, but it took a long time to order on a packed Friday night. Great place to treat your family/friends to an upscale tavern.

The food was fantastic as always. The highlight was really the staff. One of my members has a severe food allergy. They made sure everybody was aware, they let us know what was allergy friendly, and updated us as they found out more info. They helped make the experience easy. Will absolutely be back soon!!

Our food was simply on the low side of average. The salad was bland, the chicken wings dry, and the fried Brussels sprouts so very charred. The best was the dipping sauce for the bread. Would we go back? Probably not.

I’ve been living here for three years and just now tried Johnnys for the first time this past weekend. I enjoyed my experience very much. The fried brussel sprouts were delicious, highly recommend trying those. I ordered the Braised Short rib with mushroom risotto, I felt that it was lacking flavor, but the meat was cooked fabulously making the dish still very tasty. My partner ordered the Rare Tuna sandwich, this was one of the best tuna sandwiches I’ve ever had. Definitely isn’t your typical tuna sandwich, it’s very much more of an Asian / sushi version, but totally hit the spot and had many delectable flavors in just one small sandwich. Overall, we had a lovely experience and I will definitely be going back for seconds as soon as possible!!
