The sign at the entrance said, "20% off all American white wines."…read moreI bought my favorite local white wine as I have many times in the past. When I checked out, the price did not seem discounted. When I asked about it, I was given a retail price that was larger than I have ever paid for this wine. With the supposed 20% discount, the price was the same as it always was. They claimed it was the distributor, but when I checked another liquor store, the price from the distributor had not gone up. So they raised the price and then gave me a "discount". I will be shopping elsewhere in the future.

They had a good selection of beer from real close, from Massachusetts, and of course from the rest of the country/world. * Walk in cold storage in the back. * Didn't partake since we were on the way out of town, but there was wine tasting going on. The store carries liquor, wine, and beer. * Friendly staff. Cons: * I do wish local stuff had been a little better designated. There was local and local-ish kind of all over the cold storage room, so it was a little hard to figure out at first for us out of towners.

It's a small store so the selection is naturally limited. The owner gave me top notch…read morerecommendations. Love this kind of local store and am happy to support them!

So, I'm pretty sure this place is designed to keep the riff-raff out. And by riff-raff I mean,…read morecollege students, aannnddd that's the point of view you're getting from my review. Maybe a more seasoned consumer would rate Russell's more highly, but that's not me. This place is a little larger than my college dorm room with crates and shelves of alcohol stacked waist high. I get super nervous turning around in this store for fear of knocking lots of things over. It's impossible to see the bottom two shelves of liquor against the wall, and the labels are hard to read from the distance, and because they're crammed so closely together. I don't remember ever seeing a price sticker unless something was clearly marked off on sale. There's a pretty good wine selection-- the liquor selection is pretty basic; very well stocked but not very varied. Not a great beer selection in my opinion. For service-- I generally get ignored by the staff unless the proprietor is there. He's really helpful and sweet, and saved me $7 but telling me I should get a magnum instead of two standard size bottles. If only he were there all the time!

Wow. I had never been to Johnny's and tried it tonight with three others. First of all, our server,…read more"Karen 2" (on the bill) was fabulous! I swear the woman could read our minds, anticipating our questions. Now to the food. We started with fried brussel sprouts. Huge portion. Flavorful, not overcooked, just the right amount of crispness...and those bacon pieces!? Yum. I had the chicken wings and a beet salad. I'm a Buffalo, NY native folks, and thus have had my share of great chicken wings. Johnny's wings were on par with anything I've had in the Queen City. My only suggestion to make it real Buffalo style is thick blue cheese dip. The other meals served were amazing - two pasta dishes and the fried chicken. All tasty. Everyone loved their dishes. The prices were very fair for the quality and quantity of food brought to the table. I'm surprised at the 4.1 Yelper average. The meal and service we had tonight was excellent.

Yeah. Food is marginal. Service is excellent. What a conundrum. Went here on a quick overnight to…read moreget out of dodge and stayed in Amherst because my credit score of 820 was too low for any of the hotels in Lennox. So we did our usual and sat at the bar. Both bartenders Rachael and Schuyler (like the town) were spot on. Johnny's has an almost chain restaurant feel lurking somewhere and the water dripping from the light fixture was distracting but we "mussel'd" thru it. They were excellent but the tapenade for the bread was kinda gross. Heavy on the evoo and what looked like tomato paste squeezed in for color. She settled on the chicken and I squarely had a hankering for a pork chop. Rachael explained the chef prepared it a little pink...perfect! And it came out bone dry. Ugh. So let's try that again. I get it. Chops can be tough to cook. So I had a bite of her boneless chicken. It was ok. Then round 2 with the pig. I think they literally waved it past the grill and threw it on the plate. The inside was as pink as the outside of miss piggy. I give up. I'm done. The did offer a free dessert...sticky toffee cake which was really good.
