Johnnie's is a cozy, neighborhood-style Italian restaurant that has been a local favorite for many. Known for its delicious and consistently well-prepared food, the menu features standout dishes such as mussels, steamed clams, chicken and/or veal parmesan, chicken marsala, flounder francaise, and a pork/broccoli rabe sandwich. The restaurant is also famous for its tasty soups and mini cannoli. As a BYOB establishment, Johnnie's helps keep prices reasonable, with most entrees coming with salad and bread, along with housemade peppers. The service is friendly, and the atmosphere is unpretentious, making it an ideal spot for a great meal.
Recently, customers have praised Johnnie's for its old-fashioned Italian cooking and reasonable prices. One reviewer enjoyed the stuffed shells with sausage, describing it as fabulous. While another mentioned the mussels in spicy red sauce, noting it was watery, but had a great side of stuffed shells. The small size of the restaurant means timing is important, especially during busy hours. Although parking can be tough, the welcoming service and homey feel make it worth the visit. Diners can also find a variety of dishes like Lobster Ravioli and cheese steak, adding to the diverse menu. Overall, many agree that Johnnie's is a delightful spot for a satisfying meal in the heart of South Philly.
