Johnny's Italian Steakhouse

I booked a reservation for party of 6 guests for Mother’s Day @ 6:45p over the phone on May 3, 2025. I was told my reservation was secured, and they had taken my name and phone number down. I called to confirm my reservation this morning (Mother’s Day) and was told perhaps I had the wrong number/redirected to Molene location. I said no, this was for the Peoria location and had previously been told that the evening was fully open and made my reservation. They did not have my reservation secured for this evening. This is the issue with booking over the phone - there is never any sort of confirmation post-call.

Simple stated, Incredible

Good food, good service, and good atmosphere! Jordan gave fast, friendly service while training another colleague. Kudos!

Absolutely will never go back! Hostess station filled with Stanley cups. Took 10min to have a server even acknowledge us (after pointing out we have not been acknowledged). Food took an exceptionally long time to be served with no server check ins. When problems were discussed with the manager it was then seemed necessary for the sever and hostess station to point and discuss “the problem table” given a couple of appetizer coupons for the unacceptable service that was happily given back with the knowledge that a bashing post was going to happen. Save your money and time- enjoy a happy meal for a better experience!

Great food and drinks! My wife and I always sit at the bar. The service Steve provides is always above and beyond what we expect!

Had dinner with a party of my friends/family in Eau Claire last night. The hostess was extremely rude to us when we asked why we couldn't be seated together when we had a reservation for the entire party. Then when it was mentioned to the waitress she stated "we were already told" meanwhile the table they claimed to have a reservation ok remained empty the entire evening. The quality of the food has gone down hill since the previous chef left and we will not likely return when even the food can't overshadow the rude behavior of the staff

I took my wife to the Des Moines location next to the Airport for her 50th birthday. We were impressed from the moment we entered.. We had reservations for 2. I placed two led candles on the table along with a long stemmed silk rose to make the experience a bit more romantic. Our waitress Mara acknowledged my wife's birthday also by placing a candle onto her Creme Brulee. This was the icing on the cake for me.. It was an amazing date night. Dinner was Fabulous each and every bite.
