This wasn't bad for little ol Salado! I ordered the BBQ chopped brisket loaded potatoes, which were tasty. However, they weren't served hot—just warm—and the cheese never really melted. If you prefer BBQ that leans toward the sweeter side, this dish is definitely for you. Overall, it was decent, but it was a bit too sweet for my taste.

We initially ordered the double chicken fried steak but received a single instead. Fortunately, our waitress was quick to remove the charge from our ticket, which I appreciated. The steak was somewhat tough, but the green beans served as a side were amazing. The banana pudding was a little different. It was mixed with cottage cheese and probably not the best in my opinion. Overall, I would consider giving this place another try.

The food is always so good. My favorite is the loaded potato. I wish you didn’t have to pay extra outside at the venue to sit when watching a concert.

These guys used to be a five star steakhouse in my opinion. I’ve eaten here more than once a month for the past five years or so, and have always enjoyed it. Before you read, understand the owner CUSSED ME OUT for trying to relay an issue with the food. The first time I’ve EVER had an issue with a steak at Johnnys was last night. I ordered a steak rare and ended up with a raw refrigerator cold steak. I gave it a shot, understanding that rare is what it is, but as I ate more the steak became more and more inedible. I made it through about half the steak before the internal temperature went from pretty cool to refrigerator cold. Remember, per USDA guidelines, a steak must reach an internal temperature of 120 degrees to be considered rare. This steak was served to me at 60 degrees or less internal. This came as a surprise to me, as Johnnys has never served me a bad cut of meat. I only mentioned something to the waitress once I had eaten about half the steak. I didn’t expect much, understanding that I had eaten a good portion of the meal, and I hate to complain about somewhere that I love. I was told there wasn’t much they could do, but they had a manager come out and talk to me. She took a small discount off my bill of 116 dollars that brought it to 96. I wasn’t very satisfied with that, but I walked away and didn’t think about it. I spent the rest of the evening sick. I still feel sick the next day almost 20 hours later. This was when my girlfriend convinced me to call the store and ask for a refund on my steak. I called the store and was eventually transferred to the owner, Josh. Josh was standofish about the quality of his steak and defended the fact that his steak was cooked properly because he was “standing there when it was fired”. He told me “it sounds like you should order medium rare next time”. He told me that “if I had said something while I was there, he would have personally spoken to us and made it right”, however I WAS there and I HAD said something and he was nowhere to be seen. When I told him I had been sick for most of the night, he told me “Bulls**t”. “I haven’t had anyone ever complain about my steaks”. This is behavior unbecoming of a restauranteur receiving a complaint about the quality of his food. I was told my story kept changing, but I would be refunded anyways. Josh argued with me about MY EXPERIENCE with HIS FOOD. I did not call for a refund. I called because the food I’ve grown up on did not meet the most basic standard of being cooked, and I wanted to ensure that the restaurant didn’t continue to serve REFRIGERATOR COLD RAW STEAK. My attempt to help correct the issue was met with a poor attitude and a cocky, hubris filled response. I was cussed out for relaying my experience to the owner, who should not only be proud of the steaks he serves his community, but also humble enough to accept criticism from others when the dining experience is subpar. The raw steak was enough for me to consider not returning to Johnnys after being a regular for almost five years now. The owner cussing at me for relaying my experience is enough to dissuade all of my friends from returning to Johnnys, as I now see how this man treats his guests. Josh, I’m sorry for whatever bad Tuesday you’ve had, but you lost a customer for your poor attitude today. I’m disappointed in you, and I’m disappointed in your standard for yourself and the way you treat others.

Meh. Wasnt anything to rave about. Had the brisket and ribs plate. Not much meat. More fat than meat on the brisket and not much meat at all on the ribs. Slaw was dry. Everyone around me got some yummy looking thick garlic toast and all i got was 2 slices of plain old bread

The food used to be great! The last 2 visits food was substandard. The brisket sandwich was super greasy soaked through to the bun! The sweat potatoes fries were limp and barely cooked! Unfortunately will have to take my business elsewhere!
