    Chocolate Chip Pancakes

    Great food, friendly and helpful service, CLEAN restaurant, decent prices for the portions...10/10! I'll be back here again soon

    Jen W.

    On a very chilly Christmas Eve, George's wasn't very full. We were sat right away. Because it was 7' outside, we probably shouldn't have chosen the front glassed in dining area, but we were told it was heated. Nope. It was freezing. Our hit coffee started out steaming and pretty quickly became iced coffee. No matter. We kept our jackets on and enjoyed. All 3 of us tried the 2 egg any style breakfast for $7.25. It comes with toast, fries or home fries, bacon sausage or ham, and a little juice. Lots of food! Really friendly service and if it was a little warmer we would've stayed longer. Best to take an interior table during winter just to be safe. Or order some matzo ball soup with your eggs.

    Went in for an early breakfast. They had just opened. The gentleman there was very busy setting up. But the food came out quickly. We ordered short stack, Canadian bacon, scrambled eggs with bacon, fruit and toast. Very good

    Spinach pie (appetizer size)

    This place is so welcoming, the entire staff is so kind and attentive. I felt like family when I ate here, which was during a very busy time on a Sunday afternoon. I went in expecting to order breakfast, they have an extensive breakfast menu and it all looks delicious. Instead, I was seduced by their more savory lunch and dinner items. I decided on The summer salad and I added chicken to it. It was an amazing salad with greens, blue cheese, apples, dry cranberries, almonds and tomato. The Lipsmacker wrap was super filling and came with such a huge portion of crispy fresh waffle fries that it could easily be split by two people. I also ordered the appetizer size plate of spinach pie. I was stuffed beyond belief and still had food to take home with me P.S the salad tasted really delicious the next day as well. I plan on returning for breakfast as soon as possible and sampling the cheesecake on the dessert menu can't wait to dine in again!

    The food here is good and the service was swift. I ordered a pizza burger deluxe and my bf ordered a turkey burger deluxe. The portions were larger than I expected. Overall a good dining experience!

We benefited from her experience and good taste in guiding us through the menu. She ordered a caesar salad with grilled shrimp that looked divine! I love a good tuna melt and she said the Johnson had a good one- plain, but you can add whatever accoutrements you wish. I stuck with the classic and found it simple and satisfying She recommended one of the other salads (the asian salad) to my mom- with grilled chicken breast or shrimp. My mom's first job waitressing job in highschool was at a greek diner and upon discovering the Johnson Diner is greek, she had to try their Mousaka $21 served with a generous portion of greek salad. My mom enjoyed her Mousaka and said it had the perfect amt of cinnamon and spices- she ate the whole plate- she's usually a "take half home" eater- but said she wished she had ordered the salad as it looked fresh and light- and she felt full after the heavier Mousaka Maybe Mousaka for dinner, salads for lunch and brunch!

The pancakes are decent, though, with a perfect fluff inside and crisp on the outside. The lemon zest adds a bit of tang and flavor to the honey butter's sweetness, which I love. It isn't the best pancake in the world for me, and I'm a little underwhelmed given the hype for this. But I think if I ignored the hype, it's still a solid pancake. It isn't anything crazy to me, though. I wouldn't wait hours in line for this, but if you're a pancake fiend, definitely go here! Service was very efficient and attentive. They were very kind and food came out very promptly. Also, there isn't much seating inside, and there's only one bathroom. If you want to try the pancakes without much wait, then go on a weekday that isn't breakfast or early lunch.
