Johnny's Harborside offers friendly service, timely and fresh food, and great portion sizes. The restaurant is known for its nice atmosphere and welcoming staff. The daily special of raw oysters is absolutely delicious, and the fresh halibut, brought in straight from the boat, is perfectly cooked and tastes amazing. The calamari and fish tacos continue to impress, while the Fisherman's Pasta, featuring clams, prawns, calamari, and bay scallops in a red sauce, is a standout dish. The Scallop and Prawn Rigatoni, made with red onions, mushrooms, spinach, and garlic in a porcini mushroom cream sauce, is also amazing. The atmosphere is casual with a lively bar full of regulars, making it a fun place to enjoy beautiful summer days. The view of the marina is spectacular, and the restaurant has handicap access with an elevator, although maneuvering can be challenging. For parking, there is a paid meter conveniently near the restaurant. Overall, it remains a nice spot to dine, attracting visitors with its originality and consistent good service.
