Strong kitchen. Worth the visit.

Johnnys Italian Steakhouse is one of the few in-hotel restaurants which has very tasty food and high quality service. The decor is also solid. The service was better than good, as was the food. Everyone enjoyed the whole experience. We would be happy to go back. It is easy to recommend Johnny’s.

Walk over from our hotel and want a great find. Great food and service. Didn’t leave room for dessert. The goat cheese salad was very large and almost a meal in itself. We had the house special pasta with sausage and sauce. A little spicy but was great. The second dish was a Cesar Salmon salad.

We had such a great experience at Johnny’s Italian Steakhouse! The restaurant is absolutely beautiful inside cozy, elegant, and perfect for a night out. The food was amazing, everything came out hot and full of flavor. A huge shout-out to Bruce, the manager. He was so welcoming and attentive had great recommendations and really made the whole experience feel special. You can tell he truly cares about the guests and the quality of the service. He checked in at the perfect times and genuinely made sure we were taken care of.

Ok, yes, this little joint is attached to a local hotel, but don’t let that stop you! Even given the limitations of the room, the folks running this place have managed a nice bit of ambiance and the service was incredible; service at the bar in particular. The opening salad and bread were quite nice. Would suggest they provide a house oil or garlic butter for the bread and a signature Italian dressing, which would put it over the top. The combo parmesan steak and chicken parm with fettuccine was VERY good. My quick poll around the bar had folks agreeing their different entrees were great. The wine selection was also good and thoughtfully selected given limitations. Prices were actually fantastic. I would certainly encourage folks in the area to give this little joint a try and perhaps keep
