My wife and I came downtown for dinner. Downtown Johnny's never disappoints! Shannon is always amazing and the food is always fresh. Best service in the city! read more

Good bar to chill with some friends and watch a game. Doesn't get too packed and drinks are well priced

It was in a great location as we stopped in before a concert, but the wait for food was ridiculous. It took over and hour to get our nachos and fish and chips. The food was ok, but we were disappointed with the limited menu available compared to what their online menu advertised. The servers were nice, but never made us aware that the wait for food would be so long. Next time we are in downtown we will be sure to go elsewhere. read more

Super fun last night (Tuesday) with Taco Tuesday & Bingo. Tacos were good, burgers were AMAZING. We were all sharing, so I had a few french fries (thick hand-cut steak-fry type & yum), tator tots, and a mozz stick. Everything was so good. Service was top notch, very friendly. Had to wait a few minutes for first drink, but we got there right before Bingo started, just like a bunch of other people. Everyone seemed to be having a great time, especially during Bingo. I didn't win is my only complaint (haha). A good time was had by all in my group! read more

Great place!! Came in before the Walleye Hockey game. Karen the bartender is great. Very friendly people and great atmosphere. We will be coming back before every game. Or any event at the Huntington Center. Thanks Karen for the great service!! read more

Terrible service, took well over and hour and a half to bring food, some people in our party never got their food. My son asked for a refill on water 3x and never got it. Owner was there and discussed the situation and was confrontational due to his daughter being one of the servers/bartenders. They did take some money off, but several of us decided not to tip and they added tips without our consent which is illegal. Will be disputing this to the fullest extent, very sorry excuse for a restaurant and ownership. I've worked in the restaurant business and service industry and I know that people and customers can be unreasonable and this was not the case with our group. Sad thing was/is fish dinner was excellent when I finally got it, but I would never go back and will tell every person I know the same. read more

Great atmosphere. Karen the bartender is awesome . She took care of us the whole time . We were here 2 years ago and she was here and that's why we came back! read more

Worst place to eat. Service sucked. People who came in after us ate before us. Had to ask numerous times about our food. Then got it & it was cold. Waitress never apologized, not once. They did comp my cousins bill but still didn't once act sorry. More annoyed. I wish I knew her name to mention her. you have to be pretty bad for me to not tip. 2 of us, including myself, and have never treated any customers like that or I would expect no tip and we have been in the food industry for over 20 years. Unacceptable. read more

We did not wait for anything. Great service friendly staff. Food was fast and tasted good.

Sad, my first time ever eating anything from this place, and disappointed. Apparently, if you order through Grubhub, they don't care if your food sucks once you get it. My California Club was supposed to have avocado on it, assuming enough avacado to cover both sides of the sandwich. Yeah no. It had some funky 3/4 slice on one half and nothing on the other. The tomato was mushy, and the lettuce was yellow, limp, and getting brown. The tots with it were hella overcooked. Even my coworker said they were hard. The plus was the chicken breast was good, the sauce was tasty, and the amount of tots given was a lot, they were just inedible. My side salad said fresh greens, which to me is at least romaine lettuce or spring mix. Nope, just cheap chopped iceburg with diced cucumber, tomato, but a crap ton of cheese! Cheese saved it. The only thing saving this review was the 5 cheese mac. OMG! The side was huge, and practically a meal, and the creamy flavor was amazing. I did call Grubhub to see if anything could be done about just my sandwich, to which they told the rep all their sandwiches were done the same and they wouldn't try to do anything to fix this. You know if I had been eating there they would've attempted to make things right. I wasn't looking for a refund, even though apparently that's what the rep asked them for. Just straight nope to even trying to come up with a compromise of some sort themselves, or hell, maybe extend an apology?! Not sure I'll give this place a second chance after how the rep told me they responded to him, and how my food was. Then again, that mac n cheese... read more

Beware if ordering hard liquor. They barely pour a shot. Doubt I'll be back to try the food people are raving about.

We stopped here on the pedal bar this past weekend. They had some good drink specials and fun atmosphere. The thing I love most about this bar, I lost my drivers license there and the owner brought it to my house! Thanks, Dan! read more

Really good burgers! They give you a lot of food and the atmosphere is very vintage and cook with the tin ceiling, exposed brick and antique bar. My only reason for 4 out of 5 stars was our ketchup was rancid, like they kept refilling the same bottle and everything at the bottom was super old, so by the time we got to that par of the bottle it was very sour and fermented tasting. read more

Had a quick lunch there Saturday during a break from the International Festival. Had the cheese steak which was excellent and my wife had the Reuben which she said was one of the best she's ever had. Great friendly service. Will definitely return read more

Ordered potato skins. $5.95. Received 3 halves of potatoes. These were medium potatoes at best. The owner thinks 1 1/2 potatoes constitutes an appetizer order. French fri basket was warm at best. Fries were limp. Cheeseburger platter had 12 fries on it. Thus the second order for fries. Will not return. read more

If I could give them 0 stars I would. My friend and I came in for the very first time to try out the place, mainly the food. It was a Thursday night and there was only one person in the whole place. The bartender/waitress/hostess was acting like she was swamped with orders and was literally running back and forth from the bar to the kitchen. We sat ourselves down, she took our order and 25 minutes later the order came out. My friend and I both ordered chicken sandwiches. Before I started eating mine, I noticed that his chicken looked pink. I looked at mine more carefully and noticed mine was pink as well. I asked for a real knife to cut into mine as all of their knifes are plastic. When I finally got the knife I couldn't cut into my chicken because of how raw it was. I told the waitress to take the food back. She asked if I wanted it re-maid and I told her I didn't, so she said she'd take it off the bill. When we went to pay for our meal, I presented a discount voucher I bought on halfofftoledo.com which I paid $10 for to get a $20 discount. As soon as she saw it she told me her and the owner knew nothing about these deals and she wasn't going to take it. She also said other people have tried to use them, but were turned away. I showed her that the voucher had their business name and address, which she acknowledged, so this was not a mistake. After 10 minutes of some back and forth arguing I asked her to write on the back of the bill what she told me of not knowing about the deal. As soon as I asked her to do this, she preceded to give me the discount. Meanwhile, one of her customers was acting like an idiot and was putting in his 5 cents into the argument not knowing anything about the situation. She said nothing to stop him. What this business is doing is completely unethical. They offer these promotions to bring people in, and then tell them they have no knowledge of the promotion. Well, tough. You sign a contract with halfofftoledo, therefore you're obligated to honor the deal. I will not be going back to this place and whoever is reading this, I would advise them not to either, unless you want raw food and a nightmare of an argument. There are plenty of places in the Toledo area to try who will not serve you raw food and will take your voucher especially when they're the ones offering it and you already paid for it. read more

Great spot for an awesome burger. Stopped in on a whim and wasn't disappointed. The staff is awesome too. Simple menu, with great prices for being downtown. Definitely stop in this place and grab some great food. read more

Good luck trying to get them to actually fufill an Uber Eats order. They're never available during the week, which I understand as that's fairly normal for some restaurants. However, when they are available, orders usually go unconfirmed for 10-15 minutes before being cancelled. This has happened to us 3 separate times, different days with weeks in between. If they can't handle the volume of orders, they shouldn't be on Uber Eats. read more
