My fiancé and I moved to Weymouth a few months ago and one of the first places we went to eat was Johnny Kono's. At first, we were thrown off by how few tables there were, but once we settled in and the food started coming, it has become one of our favorite places to eat. The El Chapo wings are some of the best we've ever had, great spice and flavor with a some acidity to tie it all together. The burgers are incredible, even the Louis lunch burger, which although very simple, always is delicious. They really live up to their claim of being a "Five Star Dive Bar." We're excited to keep coming back and trying more menu items.

I've driven by this place dozens of times and never paid it any mind. Decided to order up a bar pie to go just to try it out, and hot damn. This place is a hidden gem. Ambiance inside looked typical New England townie place, families eating at tables on one side, grown folks drinking and chit chatting at the bar on the other side. Bartender was friendly bringing my order to the register and ringing me out. Will definitely come back and sit at the bar for a few cold beers. Next time I'll get the pizza laced, forgot to ask for it this time but it was still good.

Been here twice. Great food. The bar service is fast and friendly. They ask your first name and remember it. The evening vibe is different than the lunch (breakfast?) vibe....but who is complaining about the hours of operation, not me! Kono's slogan is "Five Star Dive Bar". I agree!
Small place, usually crowded but the food is always good.

As restaurants started opening after Covid, my mom and I visited. We sat at a table where there were water rings on it. We asked waitress to clean table - she just wiped off water/wet stains and walked away. That was wrong and I won't go back.
Came here on a Sunday night for a beer and dinner. Got two bar pies which were incredible. Definitely some of the best in the area.Unfortunately, service was awful. We sat at a table near the bar, which was apparently supposed to be covered by the bartender, but she never came to take our order or bring our check. I kept having to go up to the bar.Also, I ordered a Fiddlehead IPA, one of my favorites/regulars, and maybe that's my mistake for ordering that at a dive bar, but it was awful. Something funky/off about it, either dirty draft lines or a really old keg. If you do go here, stick to bottles!

4 of us went for dinner and drinks . It wasn't disappointing. The food was excellent as always, and the service was great, considering the place was very busy.It wasn't my first time there, and it won't be my last.I hope you'll give it a tryParking: Enough spaces to accommodate their patrons. On-site parking and not a hike to the front door.
Good food and fun atmosphere!! We went there during Covid for the outdoor seating and remained customers as a result.

Excellent joint! Arrived here on Yelp ratings and comments only. Excellent fish and chips cooked perfectly. The decor was quirky shoreside cool. Ashley our waitress took good care of us. Beautiful Chevelle parked out front.
