Incredibly friendly staff, great drinks & happy hour deals. The food was delicious - kala was our favorite appetizer and was half off for happy hour!! Fried porkchop, collard greens, fried green tomato BLT, and macaroni were all incredible. We will be back!!

The mac & cheese is just like your mama makes. It was so good Definitely made with love. Also tried the fried green BLT. The bacon is so thick and sandwich is so flavorful. I’ll definitely be back

Excellent addition to the local culinary scene. Food (we had the pasta, catfish sliders, and wings) and cocktails were clearly thoughtfully curated by the chef, resulting in an impressive depth of flavor. Courteous and attentive staff in a great space made for a wonderful experience. Had dinner and will be back for happy hour and brunch soon.

Absolutely delightful meal here. We ordered a bunch of stuff (catfish sliders, wings, pasta, red beans, lots of cocktails) and everything was great. Also, very affordable. Super friendly and attentive staff. And a good deal for the amount of food!

I have now been to this restaurant twice. The first time was about a month ago and I got the pasta Dolores which was absolutely amazing. The second time was last weekend and I ordered the fried pork chops with a side of baked mac and cheese, and both were phenomenal.

Great experience at Minnie and John’s from the beginning to the end! Hillary welcomes you like you’re a VIP and the rest of the staff follow suit. Our server, Brenee, convinced us to try the wings (HH special $1/piece) and they were fantastic! Kala,burger and chicken sandwich all delicious! Can’t wait to go back when they get the ribs on the menu. Support local!

We had reservations Saturday evening. Place was empty when we arrived. Server was very polite but the food was not good. We ordered the fried green tomato BLT. It was a raw green tomato on a hamburger bun with limp greens and sauce. Our table didn’t get items ordered, the wings were not flavored just fried, the Minnie was champagne with a dehydrated orange on the cup. It was a very disappointing experience unfortunately.

Let me just say, the manager Hillary was an absolute delight! Funny, attentive, and really added to the whole vibe of the place. The atmosphere was amazing—definitely a spot with great energy. The music? Completely on point.
We ordered a few drinks—the Hurricane and the Minnie—and wow, they hit! Strong, flavorful, and expertly made. Shoutout to the bartender who really did her thing. The Hurricane was my personal favorite!
Now let’s talk about the food. 🔥 Everything came out hot and fast, and it was hands-down some of the best eats on Oak Street. We tried the Kala, catfish sliders, wings (only $1 during happy hour!), and mac and cheese. The wings with the jalapeño garlic sauce were a flavor bomb—so good! The catfish sliders were perfectly seasoned and full of flavor, and the mac and cheese was creamy and delicious.
From start to finish, this was a top-tier experience. If you’re looking for great food, drinks, vibes, and service—this is the place to be. Highly recommend checking it out!

I was in town for Essence Festival weekend and decided to try out Minnie and John for dinner—and I must say, I was not disappointed! The food was absolutely amazing, and the servers were incredibly friendly and welcoming.
I had a delicious pasta dish that was full of flavor, and my husband ordered the red beans and wings, which were also outstanding. This cute spot truly exceeded our expectations. I’ll definitely be recommending it to anyone visiting the area!
Made a reservation for 5pm. Confirmed via text. We showed up and the building was closed, cleaning supplies were out on the patio. We knocked on the door multiple times. It looked like it was never open to begin with. Disappointed. Also no phone number listed to call. Is there an email or phone number to reach out to someone about this?

Half of our food came out NOT cooked, a woman tried to serve me a mint julep with a white liquor and the server had an attitude as well as being slow.
