Johnny's Cafe

“Cute place to eat! Had calamari and lamb chops as appetizers both were good. The lamb chops were the best for sure. The food was great. I wish the wine selection was a little better. The sparkling rose from Bordeaux was sweet but not labeled on the menu as “demi-sec” so I didn’t notice until I sipped it. The veal was exceptional and the pasta cooked perfectly. The portions were large and we left with boxes. Would absolutely come back here and recommend.”

“Love love love this place! The food is always wonderful. The staff is quick, knowledgeable, and kind. The menu is regularly updated with fun new dishes and drinks, but they always keep the classics around! My personal fave is the bow tie rosemary pasta dish for dinner and the scorpion cocktail for a fun night out!”

“The food quality here is poor. It’s about equal to a mediocre diner but with entree prices all above $30. My chicken dish was inedible. The wait staff here work hard to give you a good experience - they are the best part of a not good place so they can’t overcome the poor food. The place is crazy loud after 7p on busy nights so you can’t have much of a conversation. I have been going here once per season to give it a another try each year looking for improvement but that’s it for me. There are much better choices on the island.”

“Ordered the filet and was really disappointed. The steak had almost no flavor and the texture felt off compared to a normal filet. It didn’t seem like a typical single cut of tenderloin. Service was fine though, and after I mentioned the issue they gave me 50% off, which I appreciated. This was my second time going there for dinner and I probably won’t do dinner again. That said, I do really love their breakfast.”

“Can’t articulate how awful my experience was 6/6 for dinner. As soon as we walked in I sensed there was going to be issues. Sat down had good service temporarily as me and my buddy ordered an appetizer and our entrees. Arancini came out and it was fair. In between our entree arrival we both went outside for a smoke break. We came back in and our table was cleared, water glasses, my buddies alcohol beverage cleared and he even left his phone on the table while we were outside. I spoke to a bus boy who apologized but our server was nowhere to be found. 10 minutes goes by we don’t have a replacement drink and cutlery. Both filets come out looking horrible and my steak was super well done no pink at all for ordering it medium. I went up to another server and asked for a manager. Meantime no alcohol drink replacement. Management fired a new filet and this time it came out raw. When delivered still no steak knife or fork. I told the manager I don’t want this and that I could cook a better steak on my grill at home. Which was beyond accurate. The manager kept telling me I was irate and acted as if he was doing me a courtesy for taking the steak I didn’t eat off the check. The meantime our original server still didn’t come by to check on us. I asked for the check and they didn’t either bother taking off the appetizer or any further adjustments. We did get two drinks delivered but at that point the meal was ruined. I was offered a desert when I hadn’t eaten dinner. Upon leaving the manager starred me and my boy down. Suggestion Johnny, get rid of that old burnt string bean(nick) that acts as manager. Also get new cooks your food is horrendous. I had a few good meals in the past but will never return. Update: I have put in 2 calls to this establishment and asked for Nina(manager) to call me back on this matter. Nothing but crickets. Wonderful customer service from start to finish!!!!!”
