Best Historic Restaurants in Cleveland West

Everything was great. We enjoyed ourselves! I tried the sea bass and polenta! Very good. Our waitress was very attentive and on point!

A Delightful First Visit to Johnny’s Bar Our first visit to Johnny’s Bar was nothing short of a smashing success! From the moment we walked in, the intimate and charming setting immediately drew us in. It’s cozy without feeling cramped—a perfect balance that feels both welcoming and warm. Now, let’s talk about the food—absolutely outstanding! Every bite was a testament to the chef’s talent, with flavors that left us planning what to order on our next visit before we even finished the meal. And our waitress? She was a gem! Funny, attentive, and incredibly informative, she made the whole experience feel extra special. It’s rare to find service that’s this on point. We’ll absolutely be back, and next time, we’re bringing friends along to share in this fantastic experience. Johnny’s Bar has earned itself some loyal fans!

Love the atmosphere! Great bar and set up. We had cocktails at the bar before our table was ready. Impressive and unique drink list, the bar tenders clearly know what they are doing. It was fun to watch. We really enjoyed the appetizers, the main dishes had good flavor, loved the Salmon and pork chop, the pasta dishes tasted good but reminded me of something I could easily make at home. Great service.

Unfortunately, they did not see our reservation when we arrived and the hostess seemed very annoyed. She didn’t take us to the table. She just pointed. It was also the waiter’s first official day and he had not learned any of the specials or the desserts. So he just to out the book and read to us. Food was tasty though and the atmosphere is very nice.

As always a great Christmas Eve experience with Mike Petrone at Johnny’s Downtown.
