Went there for Valentine's Day. Had the Sole stuffed with crab meat special. Absolutely delicious. My wife had lasagna which she loved. Service was great and the restaurant was intimate. Highly recommended.

Will NEVER go back— EVER!The very rude waiter JOHN should absolutely be fired!!He made a few somewhat loud, anti semitic remarks and gestures that we overheard and saw about a family that was sitting at another table with 2 attractive women and 2 little boys while we were there for lunch.He referred to Hitler and motioned to their table —is he serious! His hatred is disgusting and pathetic. Keep your opinions to yourself and if you don’t have anything nice to say, keep your stupid and obviously uneducated mouth shut—total loser.Also, if that was the owner (man/grey ponytail) & his wife, he was making those remarks and gestures to sitting behind them at the next table, shame on you as well. That waiter will destroy your business & if you allow this man to continue working there with this behavior, you deserve it !Totally ruined our lunch-

Diamond in the Ruff It has been awhile since Covid but as good as I remembered. How many restaurants have been around over 25 yrs with the same owner (including Covid years)? Johnny's place is consistent in quality but just as important are the differences! Great touches with dipping sauce for bread, atmosphere, and great tasting & unique food. Definitely worth a try as I don't write reviews often - just when worthy of a comment!

BYOB and good food. When we first saw the entrance and dining room, we lowered our expectations. But Food was surprisingly good and fresh. Some pointers for the business: 1. Crab cakes - you should serve the sauce on the side and not drown it on top of crab cakes. Some people don’t like too much of the horseradish mayo sauce or don’t want any sauce. 2. You may want to serve some side of potatoes or rice with the dark spicy chicken and mushrooms . It was delicious though. 3. The linguine with white clam sauce was good. 4. The fish with stuffed crabmeat and lobster bisque sauce was good too. 5. You had too many veal dishes. Many people don’t like veal. Suggest you have two really good beef dishes. 5. The chef/server should put on a better outfit and clean black apron instead of the food-stained white one on top of a white tea shirt. 6. The front should have some pretty potted plants to have a nicer inviting clean look. Freshen up the dining room too. Always need to keep up a clean pretty look to stay in business. Good quality food is first but also a nice ambiance is a big deal. Tku

I really enjoyed this restaurant... I highly recommend! Food was great. All 5 of us loved what we were eating. BYOB is a wonderful option. I especially enjoyed how patient he was with all my questions ?

Kitchen was painfully slow. Diners waited 2 1/2 hours for food. Very loud party of 6 further diminished the dining experience. Host/owner was setting tables for the next day when he should have been in the kitchen. They tell me the food is goog. Maybe, but not worth the wait

Our Christmas Eve Rip-Off We viewed the Bongiorno memu on Yelp and decided to go there on Christmas Eve. We were told when we got there that they had a special Christmas Eve menu with limited options. There online menu had very reasonable prices; Pasta Dishes- $14.00 - $19.00 Chicken Dishes - $$19.95 Simple Salads - $10 to $12.00 each Extra The Christmas Eve menu had the same dishes for $28.00 each My wife ordered Spidini with a side of pasta I ordered Pork Chops with a side of pasta. All I got was one mediun sized pork chop. We ordered a simple salad to share (extra cost) We were charged extra for the small sides of pasta that had a simple tasteless tomato sauce. End of story is it cost us with a 20% tip $108.00 So I guess I will not be going back there on a Christmas Eve. The food and service was good but we could have eaten else were for half the price.

Cozy, homemade sauces and creative options. It's BYOB as the cherry on top.

The food was delicious! We had 2 chicken dishes and split a pasta so we could try as much as 2 people could. The tiramisu was yummy as well!
