Day before Easter meal with the family, ordered carryout for 3. Mine was chopped steak. Got home and flipped the meals onto fine china (celebrating Easter during COVID). It was DELICIOUS!!! Both of my fellow diners agreed! Thank you for a wonderful meal, especially during this critical time, Johnny's. Everyone stay safe and healthy!! read more

What kind of magic wood do they use to roast the chicken?? This place has incredible wood roasted chicken (their specialty) with homemade mashed potatoes & veggies- the ultimate in comfort food. Everything is homemade, from the soup to the salad dressings. Very reasonably priced and meals come with soup or salad. I also like the ambiance - very relaxed and candle lit. read more

Went Easter Sunday for dinner, service was good, most of our food was good, salmon, scallops, chopped steak and wonderful mashed potatoes but ribs were dry, would not order them again. read more

The food is always hot, fresh and delicious. Our server Simon was excellent. I cannot say enough great things about the restaurant, we felt like we stepped back into a good 90s family restaurant in the best way. I love that they cook with oak wood to flavor the food. The crispy Salmon and the Grecian chicken are cant miss. Be sure to ask for gravy for the made from scratch mashed potatoes. They have live music on Friday nights. Simply Sound was very good. The beer on tap was fresh and cold. You wont be disappointed. read more

If you areunder the age of 60 don't be intimidated by the oldsters. At first it seems like an assisted living dining room- in a good way. Everyone is happy eating their meal and socializing. I was concerned that the food would be bland even tho the prices are fair. Everytime I go I order the liver- I love it. It includes potato, vegetable, rolls and salad. The peppercorn ranch dressing is great. The bread is good, the brocolli is cooked just right. I usually have enough leftovers to have anoher dinner or lunch. Supposedly the bar is a hot spot for middle age singles- I wouldn't know- I go for the liver read more

Very nice bar and restaurant serving high quality standard American fare plus pasta. Wood roasted chicken, ribs, pasta and fish are all done very well here and we have never been disappointed with a meal. It is a nice place to take friends who want traditional, non-ethnic food offerings. The restaurant is very large but its strip mall parking lot is not, so it may be hard to park even when there are loads of tables available. read more

Food is mediocre at best. My family loves coming here, but my hubby and I are not fans of their food at all. They are very reasonably priced, but I say, you get what you pay for. I will say, they do have great service. Always feel right at home here, too bad I can't say the same about the food. read more

Great classic bar with decent food and awesome ribs. Can get crowded, but I like to sit at the bar to eat, anyway.

Another place I've been coming to off an on for longer than I care to remember. It used to always be good. Haven't been in a yr or more, so when we decided on this place for Easter with a large group I was looking forward to it. But I was disappointed. Not so much by the food, but rather the service. Our waitress seemed put out frm the moment we sat down. There were 12 of us, so not a huge table, but everything semed overwhelming to her. She forgot stuff, seemed snide and terse if not a bit rude when asked questions (like, "we thought the kids meal came with drinks? to which she replied "you have to ask.") HUH? You can't ask for us? 2 people order the NY strip, mine was ordered charred, of course she gave me the wrong steak. I had to ASK her about it. Mistakes abound. And BOY did she try to rush us! She was making us nervous, she was in such a hurry to get rid of us. We had separate checks but she got a nice tip - from us at least - since it was Easter. No more Johnny's, not with help like that. Too many good places around, with better service. They need to clean house with the staff. One more thng: I've been there on several holidays, it was usually packed. Easter was quiet there! I think their business is down. That may be why they have social-coupon deals on the internet. They need to fix their service, maybe business will return. All the coupons in the world can't make up for aloof service. Won't say never, but won't be back any time soon at all. Service: 1.5 food: 3.5 read more

Watch your credit card! I ordered a hamburger to "take out" and when I reviewed my credit card bill the charged amount was higher. I called the manager and after having to making several calls was told the extra amount was a tip which I NEVER left. I do not tip for carry out. The manger said he would send me the money which he never did. This guy said hes been there for six years but acted like a kid. I hope the owner Mary knows whats going on there. By the way the hamburger was almost $16.00! read more

Great food great service . Citrus salmon was perfect!

Stopped in for a business lunch meeting on wed. Menu was great but ordered the white fish lunch special, with salad and mashed potatoes. More than I could eat, fantastic. Service was fast but allowed us to talk business without feeling overwhelmed. Refilled our diet cokes without asking. Busy but not over crowded and noisy. Great place to go for lunch, the only time I am around this area. Well done for years. Thanks. read more

The food is amazing! The salmon and mash potatoes are delicious. The staff is friendly. I recommend this place.

Food was really good. Most notably the salad dressings. Probably the best tasting ranch I've ever had, my Dad said the same about the blue cheese. read more

We decided to cater thanksgiving for 16 from Johnnys. In one word..phenomenal! Mary made ordering a breeze and not really knowing what to expect I went for it. I've always grilled my turkeys, but this was by far the best we've ever had. Sides were plentiful and delicious. Hat's off to your team for making our thanksgiving effortless and delicious. Oh..and clean up was a breeze! Robin and Aaron read more

this place is a rip off! food is just ok and definitely not worth the price. my meal supposedly came with a side of vegetables but by vegetables I meant 1 broccoli with 3 carrots. my husband ordered the chicken sandwich with fries and there's literally 10 pieces of fries. the food is not all that to be worth giving a second chance. too bad it's conveniently located down our street but it's not worth it. read more

Johnny's Kitchen & Tap - Barbeque Near Me - Glenview, Illinois

I think the sandwich I got was average. However, the meal overall was very filling and worth the $10. I would say the inside décor is a little old and dim. Maybe this restaurant is more suitable for a family dinner. read more

I need to put an update for Johnny's and hope that the owner or management will read the review. I love Johnny's the staff the atmosphere and I did love the beer and food but .............. there has been a few changes to their menu, some were great changes such as the $5 appetizers but some were not so good! They no longer have one of my fav dinner item which was their Lamb Chops! Their new Spicy Calamari which I love is very inconsistent in flavor! Sometimes too greasy, sometimes bland etc. not to mention other items. They no longer have any Pale Ale selection of beers and a bit smaller beer selection on tap. What hap pend Johnny's?????? read more

Served Iceberg lettuce (pet peeve ) stale bread but the London broil and hamburger were excellent. Fries were under cooked and they need to change the fat fryer cooking oil. Steak and burger were cooked as requested (this does nt happen often when eating out). read more

The food's pretty good, a little too pricey, and the service is lousy. When I ordered, the waiter said "mashed?" a couple of times, obviously assuming I would get mashed potatoes. When I ordered rice, he said "mashed?" one more time, to which I said, one more time, RICE. What did I get? You guessed it, mashed! After that, we saw no one that worked there until after we wanted to leave. Next time I'll save my money and go to Boston Market. The food isn't that much worse there and it's less than half the price, and they actually appreciate customers. This place is a joke, never again. read more

Rude and irrational management - ordered chicken that was raw and the owner had the gaul to argue the point. Female owner mistreats staff and is condescending towards customers. read more

Sorry, but WAY OverRated. Food was pretty good. Service was, at best, marginal. Wines were cheap, and they tasted like it. Been there quite a few times, but these days..Don't Think So read more

Great place for foods, i love their pork chops, BBQ chicken sandwich, calamari, chopped salad, roast chicken,. ribs, etc... I tried lots on their menu and everything that I had so far are really good... easy pickup if you like to eat at home and some weekends they have live music too.... great place to be!!! read more

Johnny's has the best Liver & Onions around. Wait staff always friendly and helpful. On Friday nights they have live music in the bar as well. read more

I'd been there before. I knew Mary(owner?maybe not now) It was 10yr employee ann. diner.Upon arrival the staff was not attentive. No one was ahead of me at the host stand. One was on the phone, the other two ignored me until I 'interrupted' them. We were seated. There was also a MAJOR issue w/ the waiter (Steve). Possible CC fraud (report on file now) after diner he followed me to my car in the lot to complain about his tip. DO YOU BELIEVE THIS! I can't either and neither do the other people that I've told. I gave him 15% even though he made numerous errors and oversights. I left my name and phone # on the next day & again by email in their web page for this restaurant. I specified Mary V. to call me. The last time I was there she was the owner. I get the feeling she isn't there anymore. I won't be there again either. Still no return call as of this writing. As for the food, my Roasted Pork special for that day was dry and bland. read more

A friend of mine told me about Johnnys, so I decided to give it a try. I was with a co-worker and we only had time for a quick lunch. The server was friendly and very attentive. We were both in the mood for a salad, and the server, forgot her name, recommended the chicken ceaser. I took her suggestion while my co-worker opted for the Johnny's chopped salad. Both of us were very happy! I have to tell you, they serve amazing portions at a reasonable price. We finished our lunch with our to go boxes in hand and had 10 minutes to spare before we needed to return to work. I am so happy we found a great lunch spot, it was great! read more

I have been going to Johnny's for almost 18 years. The food is excellent, and the service has always been outstanding. I have also used them for catering parties and the prices were terrific. The portions you receive are filling to say the least. I always have to save a little room for their dessert, especially the apple pie. I have ordered just about everything on the menu and have never, ever been disappointed. Go there!! read more

this place is one of my favorite places to go for lunch with my co-workers. The food portions are large, and their prices are reasonable, and It is conveniently located a block from work. In addition to their regular menu, they have a daily lunch special, mostly under $10.00 and your entrée always comes with a large bowl of soup or salad. One of my favorites is their Wood roasted Chicken with their homemade mashed potatoes and vegetables. Their chicken is seasoned with garlic and comes out so crispy and slightly burned on the outside, but oh so juicy in the inside. If you are a fan of Onions and Livers, don't miss their baby calf liver and onions. read more

Four for Dinner and all of us have been here for Finner before Some once a month for Years...BUT.. that's over. Two could eat some of the food.. wasn't very good Two orders were wrong. Even though prices are ok( used to be more wallet friendly) and Service used to be better , we won't be returning. Gave it 2. Stars for the past, zero for the Present read more

Great place. Liver , onions, and bacon..omg.. Just what I wanted. They have a small fillet on the kid's menu and they can get homemade French fries with it. The chopped salad had everything in it, and they have gluten free selections. The cocktails are in a nice size glass and the house wine is good. They brought a slice of the flourless chocolate cake for my birthday and it was wonderful. read more

Majic wood indeed..., the chicken is AWESOME!!! This is one of my comfort food spots....

Had a change of heart about this place after a dinner there last week. I ordered a bacon cheddar burger medium with lettuce, tomato. When it arrived it had American cheese instead of cheddar. I waived the waitress down and informed her that the cooks put American cheese on it instead of cheddar and she said, "oh. they did." She picked it up and left with it. Not even 5 mins later she came back with the hamburger and it miraculously had cheddar cheese on it. At this point, I was leery of eating it, period. What did they do pick it up and scrape it off, place it on the grill to get it hot again and then slap a slice of cheddar on it? I asked the waitress for a new hamburger. She was like whatever and took it away. She came back 15 mins later. The hamburger was not recook. The bun on the bottom of the burger was filled with grease and there was no way to pick it up and eat it. The meat was dry and over cooked.The waitress stated that it always comes that way. What is a hamburger if you cannot pick it up and eat it? Why was the hamburger bun on the bottom when it first came to me there? It was very busy for a Thursday. So, if the cooks can't handle the crowd it's not the customer's fault. I had two bites of the burger and guess what? I had food poisoning the next day. I do not recommend the hamburger's and do not recommend eating in the restaurant if it is really busy. we have gone there before where the service was impeccable. But, obviously it is not consistent with crowded nights. The waitress was not very accommodating. We will not be going back. read more

Haven't ate here since I moved from the area but one thing I remember from here is the ribs. Boy did they know how to make good ribs. Always a good crowd and the environment was always lovely. A place like this is here to stay and passed down from generation to generation so check it out! read more

4 people ate there last night, 2 of us sent our food back. We had a very nice waitress, she was very patient, The manager came over too. The food is mediocre at best. I hadn't been there in a long time, now I remember why. Never again. read more

Hated this place when I came here. The service was terrible. I started with the cream of chicken soup which was dreadful and flavorless. I got a full slab of baby back ribs and a side of mashed potatoes and gravy. The ribs weren't tender and didn't have much flavor. The mashed potatoes were disgusting. Horrible texture and flavor. Will never go back to this place for the mediocre food and bad service. read more

Good food, decent service, but one major problem. They offer soup or salad with your meal. They have French Onion soup and a soup of the day. When I asked them to make sure the cheese is well done, the waiter and manager informed me that it is an extra $3.00 for the cheese!!! The cheese is a main ingredient in French Onion soup, that's like having a BLT on your menu and charging extra for the bacon!! And the kicker is that the French Onion soup is average at best!! Just ridiculous!! read more

I have been going to Johnny's since they opened, love the home cooked food, great atmosphere, wonderful staff, great prices for the amount of food! read more

Great place to eat with your family if you are looking for something between fast food and fine dining. The food is good but it is a little pricey. Usually has a band playing and the service is exceptional. read more

Although it is located in a very unassuming mini-mall that looks a bit rundown, we had a great, quick experience. Belly had a promotion where they offered a free rustic flatbread, so we decided to just pop in for quick bite. The flatbread was really big and tasty. Since this is right near my work, I think I will suggest it for lunch since their BBQ options for lunch looked really good and the smell of the grill was making my mouth water. read more

I've been here several times, had a variety of different meals. This is a meat and potatoes place. Their food is good and consistent. The only time I didn't have a good experience here was when they had a one man band that destroyed many songs that I love. Definitely an older crowd and dated place...a supper club kinda vibe...but it's not always about the atmosphere, so I am a fan. read more
