Restaurants in Johnson City

“My wife and I came into town to run some errands and found them through a quick ‘Italian restaurant’ google search. I’m so glad we did! The wait was estimated about 20-30minutes, but we were offered seats at the bar without any wait! To our surprise there was $5 spaghetti night and what a nice welcome to find an affordable meal! We got a Moscow mule, Diet Coke, and a double shot of Tito’s vodka. Our meals were spaghetti with a meatball, rigatoni Bolognese, and crab stuffed mushrooms. The meals both came with salad and house made Italian dressing (delicious!) and complimentary homemade bread. Everything was absolutely perfectly cooked and seasoned. The bartenders were both women, and extremely quick and attentive. We had such a great experience and loved the atmosphere. The bar is very old school wood, really made you feel at home. We will be returning, I’ve heard great things about their ‘Steak Tuesdays!’”

“Love this lil gem, the food is fantastic & service is always great!”

“Great homemade fresh food daily! Great service. Relaxing atmosphere!”

“Saturday to try this place out for the first time I got a UFO burger my husband got the lamb over rice, For the price, it was amazing. UFO burger is customizable came with fries a drink. He got a full-size ladder of food. Drink flavors were just amazing. Highly recommend this place. The owners were so friendly. They take the time to explain everything made sure we got what we wanted”

“Stopped by while I was passing through town. Tasted quite a few beers. Nate, the bartender was amazing, friendly and absolutely opened my eyes to some beers I never would have tried. So thankful he was tending bar!”

“If you haven't tried a smoothie bowl from YBS Juice Lounge, you must!! Absolutely delicious!!”

“Great place, good food, excellent servers .”

“Wir kamen am 07.09.2025 zum Abendessen. Das Restaurant war so nett und einladend. Das Essen war mehr als köstlich! Ich bestellte Rahmschnitzel und Pat dasselbe! Es hat so gut geschmeckt! Das Sauerkraut war mit dieser fantastischen Soße garniert! Die beiden Herren, die dort arbeiteten, waren so toll und freundlich. Ich konnte sogar Deutsch sprechen! Ich lerne die Sprache gerade wieder, und das war das Beste, abgesehen vom Essen. :) Die Pizza, die ein anderer Tisch bestellt hatte, sah FANTASTISCH aus! Dafür komme ich wieder!”

“BEST bubbles in Binghamton! And cheap! I love bubble tea! My family is from Taiwan. I grew up in Flushing (Queens) where there are over 20 bubble tea shops within a mile of my parents' house. In other words, I'm an expert on bubble tea.

Nihao is the ONLY place in Binghamton that gets the bubbles (aka tapioca pearls) right! Some people might disagree, but for me the most important part of bubble tea is the tapioca. Most bubble tea places mess up the bubbles. They either do not have the right texture (e.g. too mushy, too hard) or taste (e.g. too sweet, not sweet enough) or both. I've even had bubbles that were hard on the inside and not fully cooked! Moreover, after being cooked, the bubbles have a shelf life of a few hours, after which they become gummy and slimy. You can't refrigerate them either because then they become hard. In Taiwanese, the ideal texture is stylized in English as QQ, which is a very specific type of chewy that has some bounce to it (as opposed to, say, taffy which is chewy but has little bounce). All that to say, it's VERY hard to get the bubbles right. But somehow Nihao does it!

THAT SAID... Nihao does have fewer options for toppings compared to some other places. Some people in my family love to add pudding and grass jelly, which Nihao does not have.

Also, personally, I'm not picky about the tea. I know some people do not like the powdered mixes. There's no question that actual brewed tea with milk tastes better. But imo that's small potatoes! I can brew and mix the perfect cup of milk tea by myself at home. What I'm unable to do is obtain good quality tapioca and cook it to perfection!

OH! ALSO! Nihao is about $1-2 cheaper per drink than every other bubble tea place in Binghamton!🧋”

“The best food and entertainment in the area! Also, the best bartender in area w/o miniskirt. And on Tuesdays, it's like the weekend w the popular Robby Jam. Friendly staff and patrons too. There's nothing not to like about the Tap!”

“Went to Rossis in JC last night and had the best turkey sub. It was so fresh and delicious...best sub I have had in a long time. The lady that made my sub deserves a high five!!!!”

“I use to eat here all the time for years all of a sudden I wear a Jesus shirt and they kicked me for no reason and lie about me supposedly throwing up in the bathroom all the time which is crazy because last time I was there before I got kicked out for no reason I reported someone left a mess in the bathroom and they are blaming me for it now.”

“I order online, come kind of sooner than what they said, everything was ready, the lady was friendly, and the food was really good I recommend here to eat very good”

“Delicious food, friendly environment, and good prices. We will definitely be back!”

“Awesome service!! We sat at the bar Jordyn was such a sweet heart and so much fun!”

“Best ever coffee shop. Locally owned and operated. Staff are friendly and courteous. I'm not much of a coffee drinker but I am addicted to the Hot or cold chai tea depending on the season. And their chai tea is the best in our area. And I have tried them all.”

“must go for ice cream in Binghamton Area”

“The staff is super friendly and very helpful! Can’t recommend this place enough, will definitely be back!”

“I’ve been here over the last 3 years and food is consistent and delicious!”

“Hidden gem for sure; Id highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for excellent handmade NY style pizza, and their fried dough bites are unforgettable! The service is warm, friendly, and welcoming. I'll definitely be coming back!”

“Brozzettis has been around a long time since I grew up with their pizza, and if you have not tried it out yet, what are you waiting for.
About a time depending on the time you can get a ready-made Pizza they make them in advance for people like me
This place is you go and get your food and leave there is no dining in”

“I would say this is definitely a locals hot spot! The service was excellent and the staff were very friendly! We tried the Irish nachos and chicken tenders. The homemade chips were amazing and paired wonderfully with the nachos! Best homemade chips I've had in awhile! The chicken tenders were a bit over cooked but still good! They came with fresh cut french fries which were cooked perfectly! The picture I shared is pretty dark and doesn't do it justice for how great it tasted! Definitely would recommend if your looking to have a couple drinks and enjoy so decent food! They do have a couple specialty drinks that they make if you enjoy that!”

“Never had Halal food until today and it was fresh and tasted amazing! Highly recommend! Ahmed recommended the chicken and rice which was on point!! Look forward to trying more! Very friendly staff as well! 💯”

“They don't have places like this anymore. As far as Chilli dogs this spot is the best so far in the area! Can't wait to be back and get probably 3 or 4 next time”

“Desirée does a great job!”

“They are cool not subs sold here not food lol they then shelf can goods or noodles or ct and dog food always cold drinks tho kind of shifty ppl they will keep ya change if u don’t pay attention lmao”

“Best pretzels, so long as they are fresh! Just the right amount of salt or topping of your choice and pretty great beverage selection also! Sadly the last visit I had with my girls my jalapeño pretzel was VERY, VERY hard. Hoping for better luck next time!”

“I love finding places like this on a whim. There didn't seem to be much of a good selection and it was written out with a sharpie on a piece of stock board.. but don't let that fool you. The food and service were absolutely over the top. The lamb over rice was mouth watering. I tasted a hint of cinnamon but I don't know if it was the rice or lamb. My girlfriend got the chicken over rice and she too absolutely loved it. Then to make an awesome experience even better, they sell yoo-hoo !!!!!”

“maddie is the best bartender ever!! and the cook on friday's 😩😩”

“Big shout out to the entire crew who unexpectedly had to excavate our sidewalk/street and replace water pipes in the rain. You guys were friendly, professional and answered questions. Great job! TY!!”

“Nice people, generous servings, reasonable pricing. Small, cozy, eating area. Mostly takeout orders. Always hot and delicious. I recommend.”

“Amazing pizza at amazing price. Owners and employees are very kind and accommodating. We order pizza here all the time 😊”

“Went to Batch in JC, on my way to work! Ordered a delicious ice coffee. Lost all willpower and ended up getting a cinnamon roll. The coffee was fantastic as usual. However, that cinnamon roll was scrumdiddlyumptious!!! I can say it’s was worth the calories, and low will power…”

“Went in for a drink with a friend last night and had a great time. Nice atmosphere, very clean. Kim was so friendly, we didn't have anything to eat this time but we will be back to try her pierogies :)”

“you do not get much bang for the buck, but it is the best soft serve anywhere, i recommend getting a couple cinnabon minis and a large (if you can call it that) vanilla soft serve, the combo of the two is worth the $8”

“Our manager Jeremy was amazing!! He was the solo worker there today and was on a full run and still treated every customer as if they were the most important person in the place. Jeremy deserves a raise. Thanks, Jeremy. You're an asset to the company.”

“I've only ordered on the app and ran in to pick up. It says 30 minutes to be ready, but I went in right away and it was already available, so don't worry about the time listed on the app. Cinnabon of course is delicious. But so far I've been served quickly, employees have had good customer service, and there hasn't been any problems with orders.”

“Placed a mobile order for carry out and when we got there had to wait an extra 5 minutes which wasn’t a problem at all and the worker offered a free brownie for the wait!! Super nice and accommodating, love papa John’s!”
