Johnny's provides big portions of classic home cooking. I especially love their squash casserole and their greens. 15-hour pot roast will keep you coming back.
A meat-&-2 plate is more than you can eat, I promise, especially if you add dessert. I got 2 of these for my husband and myself--both HUNGRY-- and we have a whole lunch for me left over. $32 and change.
I also want to mention that they activity support local farmers, which is enough reason for me to support them. And you know what that means for the quality of the food! 😋

I was skeptical ...It melted away like butter with each & every bite 😂.The food was very good .I ordered the chicken pot pie .Perfect crust ..More veggies would have been good but it was packed with crazy chicken & very seasoned.The Mac n cheese was good & I loved the butter beans ..The cornbread muffins have actual corn baked inside ..I'm a big food critic so if I say it's GOOD trust me it's on point ...I wish I had room for a dessert but instead my greedy self had the fried green tomatoes which were also delicious.crispy edges just how I like it .The staff were very friendly & helpful ...I will definitely be back to try other foods y'all cooking up in that kitchen !! 🎉..Thx for a pleasant ,fulfilling experience!

Good ole’ southern cooking! Fried catfish was the best I have ever had, the mac n cheese was up there, too! Stopped while in the area and I’m so happy that I did! If you’re thinking about trying this place out, do yourself a favor and go! (;

Johnny’s Restaurant is a fantastic spot for a hearty, Southern-style meal! I had the pot roast, collard greens, and Creole red beans for lunch, and every bite was amazing. The pot roast was tender and full of rich flavor, while the collard greens were perfectly seasoned. The Creole red beans added a nice kick and depth to the meal, balancing everything out wonderfully. The portions were generous, and the food tasted homemade in the best possible way. The friendly service and cozy atmosphere made it an all-around great experience. Highly recommend Johnny’s if you’re looking for comfort food done right.

I got the Greek chicken and it looked dry but was surprisingly moist and juicy. So don't judge a book by it's cover. Also got the turnip greens, fried green tomatoes and black eyed peas. All three of these were very good, with a special shout out for the green fried tomatoes. The only negative was the cajin red beans. Not what I was expecting
They needed something extra i guess, to give them some cajin flavor. Didn't eat much of them. Decided to bring them home to spice them up a little. Overall very good and would recommend
