    Was wanting some southern fried chicken and all the fixins while I'm here visiting in the South and the place we were originally headed to was closed, so we decided to stop here at Johnny's Farm House. Glad we did; it did not disappoint! My friend and I shared half a chicken platter ($15.99) since she likes the light meat and I like the dark. It came with either a biscuit or cornbread and two sides. We got the biscuit and cabbage and fried squash as the two sides and then ordered two extra sides ($3.95 each) of collard greens and mac and cheese. The "half a chicken" came with 5 pieces; the breast cut in two pieces, two wings, and a drumstick (missing the thigh and since when did a chicken have two wings on one side?!). Regardless, the chicken was crispy, well seasoned, and not greasy at all; delicious! I like my collard greens cooked a bit longer with a bit more seasoning, but it tasted healthy. The mac and cheese didn't have that cheesy crusty top I like on my mac and cheese, but it was rich and tasty. As others have mentioned, the portions are big, so expect leftovers! They have daily specials and I'd love to go back on a Tuesday to try their chicken and dumplings!

    Delicious southern comfort food. The service was great, our hostess and waitress were very friendly and kind. The resturant is spacious, which can accommodate a larger family and a variety of options to choose from for everyone to pick from.

    Most of the food I've tried has been delicious, I don't recommend the fried chicken (all white) it's a little to big for my liking and isn't fully cooked/crispy enough for me Chicken and dumplings taste like grandma made it Service has always been good and staff is friendly Ambience gives family vibes Only con I have is that the prices have changed but they haven't been updated on paper menu or website

    This place is right next to my doctors office. I wanted to try their chicken pot pie but wasn't serving it that day. I ordered the blackberry jam Cheeseburger but unfortunately they got my order wrong and gave me a regular cheeseburger. So the service is good but check your order before you leave. The burger was still good but I really wanted to try that blackberry burger.

    A family member recommended this place and I wasn't sure what to expect. But I was definitely pleasantly surprised and plan to return again to try some other menu items. Our party of 6 arrived late morning on Father's Day without a reservation. We were quickly seated after a minimal wait. Our server came to our table promptly and continued to check on us frequently throughout our meal. All of our food was delicious. They were able to accommodate my son's gluten free diet. The only issue we had was that our meals did not all come out at once. My mom's meal never came out at all. When she spoke to our server, she asked for something completely different and that came out quickly. Our server assured us that her meal would be taken care of completely (which it was) due to the issue. Other than that, it was a great experience. After we finished eating, we sat and talked. Nobody ever made us feel rushed to leave even though the restaurant was getting busier. The next time we visit, I plan to try one of the many delicious desserts they sell.

    I cannot believe it's taken me this long to write a review for Johnny's Farm House. We've been eating here since it opened. We've always said it's like eating at Cracker Barrel without the wait. The menu of down home main courses and "fixings" is large so even your pickiest eaters should be able to find something to eat. Food is always hot and fresh and the tea will please any good Southerner. The staff has always been attentive and courteous. But of late, I think they've been having a staffing shortage. That's not to say the waiters/waitresses are not attentive and courteous. The ones that have shown up to work are just busting their behinds to get it all done, so it may take a bit longer for your tea to be refilled. I recommend if you're looking for some tasty country cookin' that you give them a try.

    Blackberry Jam burger with onion rings- Amazing!
    Lori C.

    Not many restaurants have the guts to put something totally unique on the menu. When I go out, those unique and signature items are the things I look for. The BlackBerry Jam burger was really really good. The jam really complimented the savory beef, bacon and cheese so well. Think Monte Cristo sandwich or a sweet apple chutney on your pork chop and you'll get what I'm saying. On top of all this yummy food, the service was phenomenal! Super friendly and fast. I loved every minute of my meal there. I'm also gonna tell everyone I know about it.

    Fried chicken, fried okra and green beans. Good and hot!

    This fried chicken meal will have you coming back. I believe somebody's grandma is in the kitchen. Yummy!!!!

    We came here on a weeknight around 6:30 for dinner because they had chicken and dumplings as a daily special. Three out of four of us were planning on ordering it. However, they said they were sold out for the day. Two of us tried ordering something else but were told those were unavailable as well. We survived and tried some other items. Everything was edible but nothing to write home about, mostly bland and gummy. My main issue was the service. One of my party has obvious mobility issues and was not accommodated. We asked for a closer table and were denied. It was a very awkward experience including our packing up to leave. We won't return as there are plenty of options with similar food in the area. Maybe it was just a lazy night and light staff but we did not feel welcome and felt like we got the bottom of the barrel. Literally, we didn't even get refills on our teas.

    This place is very generous in their portions. The price is Pennie's to the modern market. I love the hospitality of the place.

    They have a large menu and I've never ordered anything that I didn't like. Concord needs more restaurants like Johnnys.

    Crack of Dawn is my favorite brunch spot in all of Concord, and this visit reminded me exactly why!…read more A family business spanning generations, Black-owned and woman-owned? You already know Auntie D loves putting her dollars behind the sisters. But let's be clear: the food earns every bit of this praise. I have yet to leave disappointed. My chicken-fried chicken and French toast were absolutely worth the drive. My daughter had pancakes and chicken-fried chicken, and those scrambled eggs? Light, fluffy, and deserving of their own little round of applause. Mama thoroughly enjoyed her lunch and brought leftovers home. Took a quick nap, woke up, and finished them off. That to-go box never stood a chance. ...i Crack myself up.  Now, let's discuss these FRIED PICKLES. Light, crispy, airy, with that just-right dill tang. You get a good pickle inside a lovely crisp coating. And the ranch! Full of fresh, herbaceous flavor and on the thinner side, which I actually enjoy--it works beautifully on the salad and with those pickles. I don't need my ranch standing at attention; I need it tasting good! Crack of Dawn keeps giving me a reason to make that drive. Good food, a family business I'm happy to support, and three generations at our table leaving satisfied. Five out of five fried pickles from Auntie D! C'est si bon!

    A must stop for both dinner and Southern breakfast enthusiasts…read more On my way home from Charlotte, I used Yelp to find me a classic diner to start my day off right. I choose the Crack of Dawn Diner in Concord. I am so glad I did. Crack of Dawn Diner is the real thing--a local Concord breakfast-and-lunch spot serving traditional Southern fare at reasonable prices. The menu caters to local tastes, the dining room is filled with regulars, and the atmosphere is comfortable rather than trendy. Parking is somewhat limited. The private lot surrounding the restaurant was fully used so I parked in the lot next door that had signs that said private property, but it looked like other patrons were parking there also so I took the chance. As it turns out, it was safe to park there. The entrance is very welcoming, as well as the staff. Amanda was my very efficient and nice waitress. There is great teamwork here, and Amanda was well supported by, I believe, the owner who ran my food out and talked a bit with me. The menu is fascinating. A distinctly North Carolina menu. Several things jumped out: * Breakfast special for $6.59 weekdays * Breakfast plates mostly under $12 * Grits included as a side option * Livermush available * City ham and country ham both offered * Pork chops available for breakfast I ordered the country-fried steak with white gravy (essentially chicken-fried steak), along with two sunny-side-up eggs, perfectly prepared grits, a large buttermilk biscuit, and a delicious diner coffee. The restaurant occupies a stand-alone building with a warm, "come on in and rest a spell" atmosphere. Inside, you'll find counter seating, an open kitchen, and tables throughout the dining room. I chose a seat by the window overlooking the parking area. This was a great breakfast, that was reasonably priced, in a great atmosphere, with very nice people. It stuck to both my mind and ribs all day long. After breakfast, I continued on to downtown Concord and spent some time exploring one of North Carolina's most charming revitalized downtown districts. The breakfast was the perfect start to the morning. Crack of Dawn Diner has earned a spot on my repeat list whenever my travels take me through the Charlotte-Concord area.
