Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews

Johnny's Bar offers a charming old-school Italian dining experience with "fantastic" food and "impeccable" service. Guests rave about the "comprehensive wine list" and "delicious" menu items like the hogfish special. The patio is a summer favorite, and the "authentic Italian" atmosphere feels like home. Highly recommended.

Going to Johnny’s is going to a place to dine not only for the sake of food which can be a dime a dozen in the Cleveland area. We choose to go because we want a place with excellent food and excellence in service and care to make our night memorable. Thank you to the team/staff.
