    We ordered the tasting menu with one of us also getting the wine pairing. Food was so delicious! Wine also outstanding! We have been to other restaurants with tasting menus and this was perfect. Just the right amount of food. Couldn't recommend enough!

    My friend and I snagged last minute Valentine’s Day reservations and had the best experience. From being seated immediately, to the food — our experience was a 10/10. We expected a bit of a wait due to the holiday, and we did have that. But the exceptional service we received from Crystal, our server, more than made up for it. She was communicative, funny and warm despite being swamped with tables. We ordered a lot from the menu and every single thing was delicious! The wings and the sweet potato cheesecake were our favorites. We will definitely be back and thank the staff so much for their hard work and hospitality.

    If you're looking for a hidden gem in Royal Oak, Johnny’s Speakeasy is it! From the moment you walk in (after finding the entrance, which adds to the fun), you’re transported back in time. The vibe is cozy and intimate, with dim lighting, vintage decor, and a cool, laid-back atmosphere that makes you feel like you’re in on a secret. The cocktails? Phenomenal. The bartenders really know their craft, and every drink is made with precision and top-quality ingredients. I had an old fashioned that was probably the best I’ve ever had—smooth, balanced, and packed with flavor. If you’re not sure what to order, just tell them what you like, and they’ll whip up something amazing. The food was just as impressive. You can tell they put a lot of thought into the menu—everything was fresh, flavorful, and plated beautifully. Service was spot on—friendly, attentive, but never overbearing. They really make you feel welcome, and you can tell they love what they do. Overall, Johnny’s Speakeasy is a must-visit. Whether you’re looking for a unique date night spot or just want to grab some next-level drinks with friends, this place delivers. Just make sure to book a reservation ahead of time because it fills up fast. I’ll definitely be back!
