I ABSOLUTELY LOVE GOING TO THIS DINER!!!!!! The food is DELECTABLE, THE SERVICE IS FANTASTIC, THE ATMOSPHERE IS JUST WONDERFUL!!!!! If you're going to eat here you must arrive there hungry because the food portions are HUGE!!!!! I have enjoyed everything that I have ordered there & believe me this place doesn't disappoint!!!!!🤤😋🤤😋

My visit to The Bronx concluded in early February 2026. A cold day. The food at the Johnson Diner was fantastic. The service was perfect. I arrived early morning. Feb 9th. I had an omelette which was cooked perfect. The Home fries were impeccable and my waitress was very attentive. To this day I tell everyone in Texas where I live that the Johnson diner has great comfort food in this part of New York City.

We went back to the Johnson Diner only this time we dined in. Let me tell you, The Johnson Diner is an excellent place for great food and excellent service! Our server, Daniel, was prompt and very efficient. He checked in on us often and always availed himself to us. What a great dining experience! We have been ordering from this restaurant for some time now and they consistently provide excellent high quality food, comparable prices and leave you with lasting experiences. Please give them a try and ask for Daniel, you will be very happy!

First off, let me say that the service here is beyond phenomenal. I ordered online and seamless dropped the ball. Food was waiting over an hour to get picked up after the restaurant closed. After waiting two hours, I went to pick it up, and it was worth the drive. Somehow, the food was still warm and tasted great. California wrap was tasty, and the wings were great. I will order from this place but not from Seamless.

The Johnson Diner Bar is hands down one of my favorite spots in Riverdale. It gives you that classic diner feel with a modern twist—and the food is always on point. My go-to dish is the roasted lemon chicken with potatoes. It’s packed with flavor and cooked to perfection. Their chicken soup is also incredibly comforting and delicious. What really makes this place stand out, though, is the service. Daniel, the bartender, makes some of the best cocktails I’ve ever had. He’s super friendly, attentive, and makes you feel right at home. It’s rare to find someone so consistent and kind in the service industry. The prices are great too, especially considering the portion sizes. Unlike other places that charge more for barely anything, The Johnson gives you real value—you’ll probably even leave
