About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
  • Good for groups
When you walk through the front door of Johnny’s Kitchen and Tap, you inhale the delicious aroma of chicken cooking in a wood-roasting rotisserie oven. Cozy, casual, and nicely outfitted, Johnny’s in business since 1995, has a large bar that separates two dining rooms and offers something for everyone. We have a party room that accommodates up to 70 people.



Johnny’s is well known for their wood-roasted chicken, rotisserie-roasted pork, baby back ribs and real mashed potatoes. The menu also features steak and chops, fresh fish, pastas, salads and sandwiches. Specials are offered daily and include such favorites as charbroiled fresh fish, Chicken al Forno and Shrimp Fontinella. Johnny’s spacious bar offers a full wine list, a wide selection of beers on tap and an extensive martini list. Don’t forget to save room for dessert-the fresh baked Apple Pie with French vanilla ice cream and caramel is a favorite!

    Worst fish and chips ever. Breaded fish stick and undercooked fries. Awful tasting tartar sauce which is probably why it wasn't served with the meal. My husband enjoyed the calves liver. Nice French onion soup. Too tiny of a serving of coleslaw to make up for no salad. Cocktails were good. We have been there many times and this was a very disappointing experience. Please get new carpeting. It looks disgusting.

    I don't think it's as good as it used to be. But our waiter was so nice, and excellent and on the ball. It was a Friday night and it was very easy to get a reservation

    Food was ok, our service was horrible. Waiter kept disappearing. Brought me the wrong food, took forever to get the correct food. Not impressed. First time, possibly the last.
