This not Brenda's first time, but it is mine. And, I love it! The food is amazing, the staff is incredibly awesome, and the atmosphere, just as one should expect at a great Italian restaurant. Ali (our server) is a great fit. The staff is extremely pleasant, friendly and welcoming. We'll be back!

The food was exceptional! Fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Every dish tasted like it was made with real care and high quality ingredients. Peter was our server and he was amazing, attentive, polite and fast. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

I grew up with the Italian side of my family and let me tell you…. I have been to SO many Italian restaurants HOPING to find one that I loved. I CANNOT say enough about the place. We made a reservation and as soon as we walked in the (owner?) manager knew my name. We were sat quickly. We had the antipasto appetizer. It doesn’t look like much but the flavor is an explosion in your mouth. I got a latte and my husband got the Jonny coffee (alcoholic). I normally do not like alcohol in my coffee but this was PHENOMENAL. We then shared a Caesar salad (another explanation in my mouth 😆). We then shared the shrimp scampi. My goodness. I WILL 1000% be back. I am hard to please when it comes to food 😆. So good, I forgot to take pictures. Great service!

Tried Johnny’s Ristorante Italiano after a friend recommended it — and wow, it was so good! I made the mistake of not making a reservation (I should’ve known it was going to be good or a long wait when they’re only open a few hours in the evening), but luckily the wait was only about 45 minutes. The service was great and the pasta was amazing. We did try the garlic bread, but it was kind of burnt and just okay, so I’d skip that next time. That said, I’ll definitely be back because the pasta alone was worth it!
