I was so excited to take my mom here for the first time for her 75th birthday. My son and family and cousins met us there. What a disappointment this restaurant is as far as food and service! We waited for well over an hour for our food. Took the waitress at least 30 mins to take our order. The restaurant was near empty. This is unacceptable. Now to the food. My mom ordered stuffed flounder. It came out covered in sauce and either no fish or very little fish. My cousins ordered steak and their steaks were not cooked how they liked. My cousins child ordered a hamburger which was very red in the middle. Spent over 100.00 for nothing but disappointment. I will never come back here again. It has gone down hill. Years ago it was never like this. Slow waitress , poorly cooked food.

Brought out shrimp cocktail without devaining. Server said that's how they serve it and charged me for it even though I sent it back. Platter was soggy and they hate seasoning. $80.00 for two people when it wasn't worth 30. Never going

So we arrived at restaurant at 115pm on a sunday for a party of 5. Yes they were busy but still had tables available. After waiting to be seated for about 20min finally 1of the 2 waitresses seated us. A party of 2 was waiting behind us. We until 200pm, still noone had waited on us. Yes i understand it was busy but a waitress walked past us multiple times and we were never acknowledged. Yet the couple behind us had been seated on the other side of the restaurant and waited on had drinks and food. So shortly after 2 my father and law went up to the counter and asked if we could atleast get some tea. The waitress asked where are you sitting after she walked past our table multiple times. Said she would be right over. Never came. Ten mins later the chef came out to take our drink order. Keep in mind the restaurant has by this time cleared out. Minutes went by and still no tea. The waitress that seated us over an hour prior came over to take our order finally. We told her the chef took our tea order and her response was oh i think we are out of tea. We told her we were ready to order but she just walked away. Yes once again i understand you are busy but this is the worst service ever. So it all being said after an hr and 25 mins we left! Horrible experience this day!

Had lunch at this place on Feb. 5, 2023. The service was the worst of any where I have been. Literally was in that place for 3 hours. Waited on my order for almost 2 hours. Waitress came by the table to say our food was on the way out 3 times. 3 times the food never came. The waitress finally brought us 5 hushpuppies after waiting for 1 1/2 hours. When the food finally came out our glasses were empty and we had to ask for more. When she came back the drink was in a pitcher. The ice in our cups had melted to water so I asked for a glass of ice and cocktail sauce. Waited about 15 minutes at which time I went to the bar and asked again for ice and cocktail sauce. I ordered medium rare steak. It was cooked good in the middle but the outside was burnt. After all that time waiting the food was like warm. No apology for the wait time and no one came to see how we were doing during our meal. I had a bad experience the last time I was there but decided to give it another try today. Will never again spend $40 in that place. I believe in supporting local places of businesses but Johns Seafood will never again get my money and I will never recommend this place.
The waitress was excellent, food was great. Will be going back soon.

So my first two reviews were deleted, and I am going to keep posting!!! Think its pretty common a restaurant can ask Google to delete and honest review!!! Pretty deceptive in my opinion. We went at lunch time on a Sunday, we were seated pretty quickly. The waitress we had was new, I think, she had no social skills or listening skills. The whole meal was a disaster, we had 4 adults and one child, none of our orders were correct. The waitress never refilled our glasses, never asked if we needed condiments, even though we asked multiple times, never got them. Two ordered popcorn shrimp at $14.50 a plate and that was a joke, it was these little bits of nothing. The few pieces of shrimp were smaller than canned salad shrimp. And to top things off the manager would never come to our table to speak to us. We asked three times!!! And the waitress looked at my Dad and told him "it wasnt her fault"!!!!!! She never once apologized for any of our complaints. The meal was a little over $100 and it was the worst experience I had in my life. If I could give negative stars I would, they do not even deserve the one star. It was such a sad experience.

Excellent prime rib. Baked potato. Butter was almost frozen. Great service. Place is well dated.

Wow, what’s nice atmosphere and menu. My wife and I stopped in after running errands and had a great meal. I had the stuffed flounder, I think it was the best I’ve ever had and the prime rib looked delicious! Definitely coming back to try the rest of the menu!! The service was excellent as well!!

The atmosphere and associates were great. The time I went there was a bit later and I really enjoyed the peace and quiet at that time. The food was amazing. The sirloin was done just the way I wanted and the fried shrimp was banging as well as the fried okra. The stuffed flounder was really great as well. That was my first time going there and they did not disappoint at all.
