    The way to enter is unique and mysterious. We sat at the bar and were quickly greeted with a drink and dinner menu. The vibe was great and an entertaining atmosphere. The unique drinks are made by true mixologist. The dinner entree portions are perfect and absolutely delicious. We will definitely go back.

    Loved the password idea. Our reservation was 6:45 on a Friday, so it wasn’t packed yet. When we left, it was hopping. Both vibes were nice. Yummy habanero cocktail and vodka ginger cocktail. Cioppino and wagyu in puff pastry and lobster pasta and salmon were all delish. Would recommend this spot.
    Johnny's SpeakeasyResponded on 17 March 2025
    We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed your experience at our speakeasy! The password idea is one of our favorite touches, and we're glad you appreciated the exclusivity it adds. It sounds like you got to experience the best of both worlds, enjoying a more intimate atmosphere early on and then seeing the energy of the place come alive as the night went on. We're thrilled that our craft cocktails, like the habanero and vodka ginger, hit the spot, and that our dishes, including the cioppino, wagyu puff pastry, lobster pasta, and salmon, all impressed your palate. Thank you for recommending our spot! We can't wait to welcome you back for another night of great food, drinks, and atmosphere! Best regards, Johnny's

    Parking isn't too far, you do walk down a stairwell so it's not disabled friendly. No coat check. Very nice ambiance, chairs are comfy and sturdy. Good food selection, I hope it rotates. Delicious handcrafted drinks with a kick, great value! Good food, good portion size. This is about a 2 hr dining experience, great friendly service.

    Dom, thank you for the great review! We are excited you loved our handcrafted cocktails and food selection. We can't wait to see you back in the very near future! -Johnny's

    We have had great experiences here in the past with service and cocktails. But last Saturday we had to wait for over 30 minutes after our reservation time to enter and then over 30 minutes to order cocktails. We would have gone somewhere else had we known that it would take over an hour to be served.

    Great place to go to chill and kick it with friends if you aren't ready to go home just yet. This was my second time coming to Johnny's, it was a nice, chilled, relaxed spot. My friends and I enjoyed the atmosphere. We stayed until it was about to close, which always indicates good times and good conversations. The wait staff is amazing and the bartender (gentleman) was funny and very charismatic.

    I was very disappointed with my visit due to poor service and an unwelcoming atmosphere. I wasn’t greeted upon arrival and had to flag someone down to be seated, despite the restaurant being nearly empty. My waitress was focused on another table and only came to me twice…never checking on my food, offering a refill, or asking if I needed anything. When I was ready to pay, I had to get another waitress since I was on a tight schedule. My original waitress later apologized, but by then, my mind was made up; I won’t be back. The dark, uninviting atmosphere only added to the underwhelming experience.
