Lots of parking and no wait on Saturday morning
Keith H.

As diners go just fine. We had not been since they moved from the beach (15 years ago?) where there was always a wait. Now no wait, enough seating and great parking. Best hash browns ever and pea meal bacon perfect. Food choice slightly better than normal diner but likely to change!!! Just changed ownership on May13th. All staff keep telling you " it's going to get better". It did not strike me as bad to start with so we will see. Staff all surprised by quick sale last week but seem excited about it. Apparently someone from Canada who has experience running numerous franchise restaurants branching out to Florida. All very unusual- not least that every person who entered was told of new ownership. Immediately bar soon to be open? Ladies Bathroom out of soap so perhaps one change would be to check toilets. As a result cannot recommend or say bad word but watch this space and we plan to go again in a few months to see if they have soap in the ladies

Reuben with gazpacho
Allison K.

Went here for a nice lunch with my family. They have changed and updated the menu. They now do breakfast or lunch all day. I got the Reuben on their homemade bread and the fried egg sandwich, and split them with my family. We also got the sandwich and soup special (Reuben and gazpacho). The table was wheelchair accessible. Our waitress was very friendly and outgoing. The food was delicious. The homemade rye bread was very good. This was my first Reuben, and it was delicious. The fried egg burger was made perfectly. The gazpacho came with croutons and other toppings. Overall it was a very good lunch, and a pleasant atmosphere. Will definitely be back to try some of their new breakfast menu items that looked delicious.

We've been coming to place but I haven't done a review. We had several dishes and every bite tasted great. Eggs Casino: Their twist on classic Eggs Benedict was fantastic. Perfectly poached eggs, hearty ham, fresh tomato, and that signature sauce really brought it all together. Morning Super Star: Comfort food done right. It came with crispy hash browns smothered in melted cheese, topped with basted eggs, fresh tomatoes, and toast. Hawaiian Omelette: Loaded with sautéed veggies, topped with a rich cheese sauce, and finished with a grilled pineapple garnish. Deliciously unique. Nova Bagel Platter: A classic combo done with fresh, quality ingredients--creamy cheese, ripe tomato, red onion, and just the right touch of capers. Short Stack Pancakes: Fluffy, golden, and just the right amount of sweet. A perfect side or dessert to share at the table. Each plates came with a slice of watermelon and cantaloupe which both are pretty refreshing. Everything came out hot, fresh, and beautifully presented. Service was friendly and fast, even during a busy morning. We'll definitely be back.

I have limited experience at this establishment, but every time I come here for breakfast, they did not disappoint. Good food, good service, and a nice place to have breakfast with friends and family. Very efficient seating and ordering process. Overall, great experience.

2022 4. Raisin Cream Cheese French Toast vs 2025
Kailey M.

I have been coming here for 25 years and I am deeply disappointed in my most recent visit. The prices have continued to go up (which I understand). But the quality and quantity of the food has dramatically decreased. I recently came back to John gs to get the cream cheese stuffed French toast that has been my go-to order. When they placed my food down on the table I was appalled. The difference is inexcusable. I understand that with covid and the change of management there have been changes here. But they kept up with the size of the food even after they changed owners... that is until today. The photos I included show 2022 vs 2025. Even my photo I took last year looks like the 2022 version. I'm so sad to say that after recommending this place to everyone I know, I don't think I will be returning after being a loyal customer for 25 years.

3 fish stick for $29.95

What happened to all the staff? Arrived at 2pm on a Wednesday approximately 28 diners in the restaurant and ONE (1) server that was not only waiting on all the tables, but also cashing people out. Been sitting 10 minutes without being acknowledged, had to ask twice for a menu. When paying $29.95 for a fried fish and fruit platter one would expect a higher quality service. Given water by the bus person and never asked for a beverage order. What a HUGE disappointment when the meal arrived $29.95 for three (3) Fish Sticks! Unbelievable, and one of them was terribly chewy. Had to ask 3 times for my check, and kept being told "I'll be right back with your check". Meanwhile she was sitting new guest and taking their drink orders, refilling drinks for other tables, taking pictures for guest, talking hugging and kissing what appeared to be regulars. I used to love this place, but this is my LAST visit. Service and food quality were terrible!

Eggs Benedict with lox was great. Loved crispy home fries. Why raw onion on it?

Are they still Cash Only?

No but if you have a great server tip them in cash as the credit card fee will be taken out of their tip! Amazing servers at John's!

We never felt rushed and had plenty of time to look over the menu before ordering. We started with the Steak Tartare, served with beer-battered smoked onion petals, truffle, egg yolk, and manchego. It was excellent and one of the highlights of the meal. We also tried the Za'atar Roasted Local Vegetables with spicy greens, feta tzatziki, lime pickles, and pepitas. It was good, but it wasn't my favorite dish. For our entrées, one person ordered the Rigatoni Bolognese with pork and beef ragu, housemade raw milk ricotta, and Parmigiano-Reggiano. It was rich, comforting, and absolutely delicious. We also ordered the Jerk Local Swordfish from Fort Lauderdale with braised Swiss chard, local radish escovitch, and jackfruit miso beurre blanc. While the swordfish itself was cooked well, I wasn't a fan of the jerk seasoning. The flounder, however, was outstanding and probably my favorite entrée. To drink, I had the Les Fumées Blanches Orange Sauvignon Blanc, which I really enjoyed. Someone else had an Old Fashioned. For dessert, we shared the Affogato with mascarpone ice cream, dark chocolate, and espresso, and it was a perfect ending to the meal. The service was attentive without being overbearing, and we appreciated being able to enjoy our meal at a relaxed pace. It is on the pricey side, but that's fairly typical for a farm-to-table restaurant using quality ingredients. There's a small parking lot behind the restaurant, and we were lucky enough to grab a spot. Overall, it's a fun place for a date night or a nice dinner with family. I'd definitely recommend giving it a try. Or if you want, they have a great bar and you can hang out there and have a bite.

For dessert we went with the mini caramel sundae. Each of the items were so delicious that if I mentioned each item this would be a 4 page review.. I would say the my favorite items, was the pizza, and both Pasta dishes. Although everything was delicious. OMG It was so delicious we all shared and there was plenty to eat!

It was definitely a love at first site thing, and wow was it packed! Everyone was dressed well, having a great time. Honestly, I hear many places struggling in summer in Palm Beach county, but not this place! The mushroom pizza we ordered was fantastic, easily 10/10. The mushrooms were excellent, there was a nice char on the crust, the cheese was deliciously melty, yum. We also had a bottle of Chablis that was delightful. For dinner, we ordered a pasta dish that was also great. For dessert, we went with a shortbread cheesecake dessert which was very gastronomic. I loved everything. The only reason I am not giving them 5/5 was because my husband called ahead of time to request a desert with a candle in it AND he asked the front desk multiple times to make sure they had a dessert setup for my birthday and they did not, so he was really upset about that (I didn't mind). Our server was really sweet and knowledgeable. I guess she wasn't related the information, not her fault. I didn't realize how packed it would be here in July! We will definitely be back. It was very California like inside with the wooden panels and the bottles of wine on full display, along with beachy pics, and lots of natural light along with a cute back patio area.

We were seated right away and our waiter was Jeremiah who couldn't be more pleasant. I had tea (they brought out a mini teapot) and my husband had coffee (they came around for refills). I chose to have the Crème Brûlée French toast which was one of the specials. It was good and not too too sweet (but still quite filling). My husband opted for the Vegetarian omelette which came with toast and potatoes (or grits). He said his omelette was fabulous and would be a redo. We will definitely be back!

The service was spectacular. Beyond amazing. My friends and I ordered a few items to share. For appetizers, we split the wedge salad which came with tomato, bacon, cucumber, pickled red onion, and Maytag blue cheese dressing. It was delicious and I loved that they offered to split the salad in 2 dishes for my friend and I. So much easier. Additionally, we got the Snake River Farms Wagyu NY strip cooked medium and it was PHENOMENAL!!!!! For a side we got the baked mac and cheese which consisted of bechamel, 3 cheeses and pretzel crumbs. This side is a MUST! We also ordered the pumpkin gnocchi which consisted of duck confit, candied apple, and brown butter sage. My friends got the Lobster Campanelle which they were RAVING about.

Perfect temp. You could tell the farm to table difference. He had the grouper, which he felt was good, but again not great. I'd highly recommend staying with the steaks. The sides were baked Mac & cheese and mushrooms. Both were delicious. Desserts were the cheesecake and carrot cake bread pudding. Both were tasty. They brought out a surprise dessert for my birthday which was a nice touch and piano played happy birthday. One note, I was impressed the manager told the table across from us to get the dog off the booth/table. Honestly was so off putting. The same dog kept nipping at servers as they walked by. I honestly feel they should've asked the dog to leave. At $500 for two, I shouldn't be listening to aggressive dogs and watching the owners keep them at the table which is so unsanitary. So I appreciate sticking to the rules, regardless if it upset that other couple.
