Very cute little restaurant in downtown Forsyth. Great prices and the quality was also amazing.

Wow! What a great pizza! We stopped in looking to try something new and hoping for the best. Were were impressed by the flavorful crust, tasty sauce and toppings. Definitely worth getting the whole pizza. read more

Decided on Jonah's based on the Yelp reviews. If you're looking for something quintessentially unique, this is the place. The pizza as well as the service is very good. Also, their selections of beer on tap, for such a small place, was also very good - I had the Left Handed Milk Stout, on tap. Prices are inline with a local speciality pizza establishment. So it's not the place for cheap food, (as a matter of fact, it's all hand-made, pizza, desserts, etc.). You can even watch them make your dinner in the "brick and flames" oven through the big windows! read more

Visiting friends in Forsyth, Ga. and wanted a casual, comfortable spot for dinner. Jonah's on Johnston was perfect! We were greeted by the owner who chatted with us for a bit and got our drinks. Our waitress was friendly and attentive. My glass was never empty as she was spot on with the iced tea refills! Our group shared a pizza, the Forsythian. It was plentiful with toppings. The sauce was just right and the crust was chewy. Everyone was so friendly and welcoming. We will definitely eat there again on our next time through read more

We were traveling to the sunny state of Florida and was looking for a place to stop and eat lunch. We wanted to find a local restaurant we cannot get where we live. We found this place, decided to try it, and we were glad we did. The food was plentiful (my kids split a calzone it was so large) and it was good. The service was excellent and friendly as well. If you are in Forsyth (or just traveling by looking for a place to eat) I would definitely recommend Jonah's. read more

This place is a bit expensive. I really enjoyed the flavor of the crust. My one complaint is that a slice of pizza will flop/sag in your hand and that caused the toppings to fall off. Yeah I know I am being picky but when you are are shelling out big bucks for a pie, I want to eat it with my hands and not have it fall apart. Maybe it was just a fluke this time but I am looking forward to trying it again. They also bake fresh bread. Living in a small town in GA, its hard to find premium baked bread. read more

Worth the extra mi it's or two off the interstate to have fabulous pizza and other goodies. Sweet town of Forsyth

Stopped in here for a quick dinner while in town. Had been told the pizza was good but pricey. Well both were true. The pizza was pretty good i just had a pep and cheese and a Greek salad. I think the price price of the pizza was fair considering it is a hand made and brick fired pizza. The salad on the other had was total rip off. First the pizza. The sauce was very good just the right balance of tomato and seasoning. The pizza crust was great the bottom was firm and edges had a little chewiness to them. Just the right amount of cheese. The pepperoni was well pepperoni nothing fancy but tasty. I would get this pizza any day. Now to the salad. A Greek salad it was not. Not going to bore you with details on a salad. Just going to give the facts. First for the price it was tiny...very tiny...there was a lot of brown lettuce in it. When i placed the order they didn't ask me what kind of dressing i wanted. I didn't really think much of that I kind of figured it would have Greek dressing. Nope.... the pitfalls of carry out. Got back to the hotel to discover NO dressing. That is it about the salad. That is more than what i wanted to say. read more

Excellent food and service since the new owners have taken over. This is a regular stop for us now for a great dinner.

Passing through town and wanted pizza. We decided to stop here and loved it! We ordered the pretzels as an appetizer and they were amazing. The marinara sauce it came with I think was homemade and really tasty. We got a simple pepperoni pizza and it was delicious. Super fluffy crust which is my favorite. They also had live entertainment while we were there which was great to listen to while we ate. The staff was super friendly and the place had a really cool and cozy feel to it. 10/10 would recommend! read more

I called ahead enroute, superb customer service and the pizza was excellent! Great crispy crust,hot and tasty.

Pizza was good and service was great but, it was cooler outside than it was inside. Made it really uncomfortable to eat and was a long wait for our food. No AC and kind of high priced. read more

Spicy pizza sauce on menu now as a pizza sauce, I guess they read my previous reviews and added it! I enjoy eating pizza here for lunch if I'm ever in Forsyth and it is located just off downtown square. This trip I tried the pound cake for desert and OMG it was awesome!!! I only rated it lower on a previous visit because of the sub par coffee shop experience. read more

Jonah's on Johnston - 8" with pepperoni and mushrooms - Pizza Near Me - Forsyth, Georgia

Nice local place. Friendly help. I had a 10" pizza and it was pretty good. The vegetables were fresh. Service was great and the pizza is baked in a brick oven so it was fast also for a pizza place. If I'm back in the area I will stop in again. read more

Jonah's on Johnston - 10 inch with red sauce green peppers and pepperoni. - Pizza Near Me - Forsyth, Georgia

Every place that go to, the first thing that I look at is the service. Which was absolutely wonderful! Since it was lunch, I had the pizza roll special. Where can you get 3 pizza rolls, salad and a drink for under $8. The best way to explain the pizza rolls is fresh. Great flavor, loved the flavor of the dough. Especially when you can dip in pizza sauce (which was very flavorful). Next time I'm in town, this will definitely be on my lists of places to stop and eat. If I wasn't so full, I'd try the deserts. They look awesome!! read more

Arrived just before closing time, everyone was friendly and welcomed us. The pizza and bread sticks were great! read more

We ate here last night. The pizza was great .I saw them deliver some calzons. They were so big. Wish we ordered them. I give them 5 stars for not only the food and service but there hospitatly read more

One of two restaurants I like in Forsyth. How lucky are they to have two really good restaurants in that small city. Anyway, we fell in love with the artichoke dip. It's not your typical overly creamy dip. It has very good size bits and pieces of artichoke. We went in on it so fast I didn't get a picture. Then we had the lasagna pizza. My gosh...that was the best pizza I've had in a long time. The crust was tasty and baked to perfection. I wanted some cake but a couple came by and got the rest of it. We took home a peanut butter something dessert. I wasn't in love with it. They had a mixed crowd of older, younger funky and something in between. About a month later when I had a business meeting in Macon I came in and got some sourdough to take home. It was awesome. Will def be back. read more

Jonah's on Johnston - Had the lasagna pizza. OMG the pizza I've had in a long time. - Pizza Near Me - Forsyth, Georgia

See all

It was disappointing, the reviews sounded good, but I found the staff to be nonchalant, I ordered the 3 cheeses grilled sandwich. It was very dry, the menu says that it is served with romaine lettuce and pickles, the lettuce was about 3 inches big , I just laughed. My husband had a pizza and that wasn't bad. I would not recommend this place, the seats in the booth we all cracked and unkept. read more

Interesting place. Not exactly an easy find, gps took me to a dirt lot, thankfully some of the locals were more then helpful and literally escorted me a block down the road and showed me where to find "the best pizza around". This did prove to be a true statement. I had the 10" Hawaiian pizza and it was wonderful, just the right size however a bit on the pricy side $12 w/o drink. If you're coming for the atmosphere, skip it! Small outdated and cramped, so we sat outside on a beautiful sunny evening and enjoyed the view of the well kept downtown Main Street. All in all I would call my experience a success! read more

Fantastic pizza and calzones! We have eaten there twice and have been very satisfied both times! read more

Great pizza And atmosphere. Friendly too. Let me in after 8pm closing. Thanks. I was hungry

My favorite place to eat in Forsyth. The fresh bread selection for sandwiches is incredible, the soups and salads are good and the pizza is worth the drive! The craft beer selection is ever changing and adventurous. The mixed drinks are creative and perfectly balanced. Don't leave without grabbing some of the best pralines you will ever eat!!!!! read more

This restaurant has gone downhill considerably over the las few years. Maybe it's good the owners are retiring.

My brother and his family came up for a banquet and since I only live 45 minutes away I drove down to meet my sister inane and nephew for lunch. My sister in law found this place online and we decided to try it. NOT DISAPPOINTED!! We eat decided on an 8" lunch pizza with drink and it cost less than $10 a person. It was made fresh right before our eyes read more

When we travel with the our family we typically stay away from the big chains and search for local restaurants. On our trip from Chicago to Florida we spent one night in Forsyth, Georgia and tried Jonah's on Johnston. We ordered a large pizza and breadsticks for our two hungry teenage boys, while my wife had a phazoni and I had a calzone. You are probably wondering what a "phazoni" is, it is a meatball sandwich served in their fresh baked bread. The meatballs were outstanding with a great flavor. Overall the portions were perfect. Everything was baked in the brick pizza oven. We all enjoyed the food and would recommend it to anyone coming to or passing through Forsyth. I really enjoyed their marinara sauce, especially if you like it with a hint of sweetness. The staff was helpful and courteous. They also serve pastries and Fair Trade Coffee in the morning. read more

We were staying in town for the night and this place was definitely a great place for dinner! We would be eating here all the time if we lived here! The oven really makes a difference. read more

The pizza is great. They have live music sometimes and it is a great hangout for the locals.

Terrible. I haven't been to this place in years and I now remember why. The sandwich was just dry and the bread was hard. It like cut the roof of my mouth. But I was so hungry I ate it. They were out of sides and sweet tea. Kind of confused at how they're open with what I saw. read more

A little hole in the wall and area's best kept secret. Had pizza and salad ( homemade dressings). Super fresh and pizza was perfect. A must go if you're in the area. Delicious!!!!! read more

The lasagna pizza was delicious! Went back next day and can also recommend the calzone and chocolate chip cookies! Serious yum!!!

Jonah's on Johnston has to be the best pizza place in Forsyth. Their brick-oven pizza creates a unique taste not common OTP. They have great combinations and it's a perfectly cosy lunch spot. Definitely sit outside when the weather is good. Service staff is generally friendly and helpful, and the restaurant is clean. A large pizza easily serves four adults, and the calzones are the size of a medium-sized baby! Reasonable prices. read more

The food is always Great and the service is excellent. It is a bit pricey, but you pay for what you get. You can get sub par cheaper food elsewhere, but why bother read more

Very friendly staff. Great food, I had the lasagna. It was very good. Will definitely be coming back.

The staff was polite and the calzone was ok. Nothing to blow my socks off but not a bad price or meal.

The pizza is absolutely phenomenal. Love the Mike Angelo. Love the choice of sauces. Good selection of beers. HORRIBLE SERVICE. Actually, it's non-existent. Other than someone bring the pizza to the table, you're on your own. Order at the counter. Ok, that's cool. Pay before you even get your food? Nah, man. That's not cool. Been here multiple times, but may not be back due to this change in policy. read more

I've been disappointed with pizza offerings around & have started making my own. I stick with "non traditional' ingredients that I don't find at the places nearby. I decided to try Jonah's on Johnston.They claim on their website of having "the best pizza you'll ever have". I've had some pretty good pizza in my day, some pretty great pizza too, but the BEST pizza, we'll see. It's a quick twenty minute drive up the freeway to exit 187. Lee Road takes you right into the middle of town called "The Square". Downtown Forsyth looks like Mayberry with shops and restaurants scattered about. Why there is even the quintessential clock tower.There on the corner of Johnston and Kimball sits Jonah's on Johnston. Not quite on the "Square" but right off of it, across from Floyd's, make that the City Barber Shop (complete with barber pole out front). I had to raise an eyebrow to their lofty claims of the "Best Pizza Ever". Not one who is quick to judge, I thought I would let the pie convince me. The first thing I noticed about the place was the covered patio seating out front. with colored lights strung underneath the awning. A good place to sit and have a bite once the weather cools. The heat apparently didn't stop a few folks from dining al fresco.There were a few young family types,an elderly couple and quite a few dads picking up dinner on their way home from work.Jonah's is a step up to the counter kind of place. The folks behind the counter could tell we had never been there before. The lip-ringed "kid" with the partially buzzed hair actually mentioned it had to be our first time since he didn't recognize us.I gave him a mental point for knowing the customers. He handed us menus and told us to have a seat where ever we liked. We sat at a table facing the large glass window where you see a large wood burning pizza oven and everything being made, pizzas being tossed and peppers being roasted. There is something reassuring and comforting watching one's meal be prepared.The menu was loaded with options and variety. Appetizers, pizzas, calzones, phazonis salads, sandwiches and desserts. Sauces caught my eye, red, white, green and blush. Blush, a novel idea indeed! Genius really, a combination of red and white (duh) that isn't as sweet as red and much more garlicky. The "kid" approached our table & took our drink order as we looked over the menu. Normally you order your drinks at the counter, but we did not know this. Jonah's offers a variety of domestic and imported beers & wine. When I asked what kind of wine they served I was told red & white. Not exactly the answer I was looking for, but it did make me laugh. Kid told me that the bottles were on the shelf behind the counter. I turned to check out the labels & laughed even harder. The wine bottles had stickers covering their labels.Those "Hello, my name is..." ( 2 buck Chuck) that you get at conferences. They were marked Pinot, Chard, and White Zin. This is not the type of place that an oenophile goes to partake of the grape, but if you don't mind a glass of regular table wine, you're in luck. We opted for a bucket of beer. Being unfamiliar to the menu, it took some time to decide. The Specialty Pizzas read like a Who's Who to us. There is also the option of ordering regular pizza.All pizzas come in three sizes to choose from. An 8", 14" and 16" with Basic & "Deluxe Toppings. We started with the Artichoke dip and toast points appetizer.The dip was full of chunky pieces of artichoke hearts, roasted chunks of red and orange bell pepper. Then came California & the Rhode Island Red pizzas & the steak and mushroom Phazoni. The phazoni was a cross between a calzone, Philly cheese steak, & gyro. Made with pizza dough wrapped around piles of thinly sliced steak, sauteed mushrooms, onion, provelone cheese & "feta sauce" baked til it was melty. It was pretty incredible with the feta sauce adding just the right amount of tanginess. The Rhode Island was a combination of creamy ricotta & cheeses,big chunks of grilled chicken breast & roasted red peppers. These did not come from a jar either. They were succulent, sweet with a hint of smokey flavor that only fresh roasted peppers have. The California was laden with fresh pesto, sundried tomatoes and loads of goat cheese. The flavors all combined nicely. This was a pizza any pie-o-phile would love. There were 2 dessert options,Peach Cobbler or a Double Chocolate Mousse Cake. Like in any good smack down, chocolate came out on top. It was rich & sweet & gone in no time. As we walked out of Jonah's, I was glad for my forethought to wear loose fitting shorts. They weren't so loose anymore. I thought back to their tag line, "the best pizza you'll ever have". Was it? You'll just have to try it for yourself. read more

Delicious pizza, salad, and desserts! Also love the fresh brewed iced tea! Darren was very helpful too!

What a cute little spot in Forsyth, GA--a town I am often forced to visit. Anyone who knows Forsyth knows that there ain't much there. And there is definitely very little in the way of good food (Grits Cafe being the only other exception). That's what makes Jonah's such a great addition to "the square." Jonah's bakes both bread and pizza very well. Prices and service are good, so there's not much to complain about. Oh, except the beer selection--it blows. read more

Thanks again to yelpers for pointing out this small town gem! Super friendly. Carry out. They helped carry my order all the way to the car. They were out of cinnamon rolls so we got chocolate chip cookies. While I was in there they had just taken a banana coffee cake out of the oven and offered me a taste. It was out of this world! The pizza was easily among the best I've ever had - and I live near Chicago! We will definitely make an effort to stop here again. Wish they were open tomorrow morning so we could try the cinnamon rolls everyone is raving about! Live music Friday nights. Right in the heart of the downtown. read more
