Dear John's is a restaurant with a unique 1950s vibe, reminiscent of the Rat Pack era. The atmosphere is dimly lit, which can be a drawback for some diners, but the attentive service and delicious food make up for it. The menu features standout dishes like sourdough with house-made butter, Caesar salad made table-side, and chicken parmigiana served bone-in. The lamb with mint jelly is a highlight, and the sides, such as potatoes and mushrooms, are tasty. While the kitchen may not always be consistent, the food is generally good. Recent reviews highlight excellent food, particularly the steaks and sides, as well as the Oysters Rockefeller and Lobster Thermador. However, some guests have expressed disappointment with the service, mentioning unprofessional behavior from staff and a lack of attention to detail. The martinis are also a notable feature of Dear John's. With some attention to detail, such as improving service and customer experience, this restaurant has the potential to return to its former glory.
