Very nice visit. Service was very good. Enjoyed the grouper special. Tried one of their mock tails given dry January and found it excellent. Manager stopped by to check on us given order took a while. Very pleasant.

We are so glad that you enjoyed your visit! The mocktails certainly make dry January a little brighter!

Very good dining experience. Rachel was a fantastic server. The food was good. Would like to see a slightly larger selection for wines. Ambiance was nice. Will be back!
Johnny's TavernResponded on 25 January 2025
Thanks for the feedback! We choose our wines with care, and our focus is on interesting wines with character. Because we have a small list, we bring in additional wines to feature for short times in order to keep it lively. We hope to see you again soon!
