I had such an amazing experience at this Italian restaurant! The portions are incredible super generous and delicious, definitely worth the visit. Toti, the manager, is truly amazing. You can tell he cares so much about the place and the staff; he’s always jumping in to help the servers and make sure everything runs smoothly. My server, Berat, was fantastic very attentive, respectful, and made the whole dining experience feel special. Hospitality like this is rare, and I appreciate...

Absolutely amazing, my favourite meal and restaurant I’ve ever had in NYC. The ambience is wonderful, the staff are great and the food delicious. Amazing vegan and vegetarian options too!

10/10, 5 stars!!! My friend and I went came to John’s on a Friday night and they were slammed! Despite the business, Miguel our waiter made us feel right at home! The vegan ragu was phenomenal and the wine was so tasty. The staff is so welcoming and friendly! Every seat in the restaurant was full, but the staff still took the time to check in on us throughout dinner. We will definitely be back <3
