Decided to try Johnnys out and we were pleasantly surprised! Lemon chicken dinner and combo platter were our selections and also salads! The salads were truly amazing and the rest of our food was great as well. Only didn’t care for the mixed veggies but still not a negative as everything else was fabulous! Our server was real friendly and attentive as well!

Johnny's Cafe is a bar/restaurant but more of a bar with slot machines. This was our 2nd visit to Johnny's. Parking is plentiful and free and there are handicap parking spots. The entrance is also handicap accessible. The lunch/dinner menu focuses on salads, sandwiches, burgers, and pasta, along with appetizers and a few other items. 1/3rd of the menu is just drinks, they have a full service bar but they don't have any bourbon, unless you consider Jack Daniel's bourbon but I consider it garbage. Anyway, the first time we went, we started with the grilled calamari which was not good at all. We had two different pasta dishes which were actually pretty darn good. We also had the clam chowder soup which was also very good. After that we had decided to come back to try their fish fry which is what we were there for this time. We started with the appetizer sampler (cheese sticks, fried mushrooms, onion rings, and jalapeño poppers along with ranch dressing and marinara sauce) which was a HUGE

First time here. Omg. The tastes and the flavors were spot on!! So many clams and mussels made this incredibly delicious. The chicken and rice soup was tasty and delicious too. Don’t miss this stop. You will not be disappointed.
