Catering to whom?
My wife and I dined at Johnny's on Saturday (November 26th). The remodeling from the old Roadhouse is very nice. The atmosphere was good as well. The service was extremely SLOW. It should not take 5 minutes to get a bottle of beer and a coke. The first beer was served with a frosted glass, but all subsequent beers were served without a new glass. We sat in the smoking section and our ashtray was NEVER cleaned out while we dined (not very good).

We both had filets (I had the full size and my wife had the petite). My wife ordered hers medium-well. When she cut into her steak, the inside was BRIGHT RED. When our waitress finally returned, we showed her the steak and asked if it would take long to fix. She stammered a bit and then said she HOPED not. No apology. My steak was ordered well-done and butterflied. My steak was burnt on the outside and had some fat/gristle (not standard for a good filet).

We decided that due to the poor service and quality of food, we were not going to spend any more money here for coffee and dessert. As we ate, the host walked around and never once came to see how our dinner was, but only stopped at ONE table to check their experience.

As we left, the host and hostess were standing by the front desk. We received no thank you or good night (not very professional for a restaurant that looks to be geared to a nice formal-type restaurant).    [28 Nov 2005 09:09:10]

Amazing restaurant
I went inside the restaurant and immediately the host said hello and brought me to a table. The place was very nice because of the music, hardwood floors and pictures of Antioch. The waitress came immediately even though the restaurant was very busy. She was very nice and I ordered a Porterhouse. It came in 20 minutes and it was perfect. When I left the, host said another hello. If you live by Antioch and you're hungry for steak I would come here. The steaks are out of this world. The only thing that didn't impress me was that my coke took a while. But still I think this place is very good.    [30 Apr 2006 07:43:26]

Finally, a real restaurant in the area
Antioch has waited long enough to have a real dining establishment in the area and Johnny's Chophouse is it. The atmosphere and food were awesome. I had a New York Strip that rivals any steak I have had downtown, and my wife had shrimp dejon. We are so excited to have such a great place close by that we want to tell everyone about it.    [23 May 2006 18:47:41]
