We were at Pier W for our son’s birthday lunch and had a lovely experience. We had a table with a wonderful view; Tim was our server and was excellent. He was pleasant , offered helpful information about menu options and specials , and made the event memorable and very enjoyable. The meal was excellent, a walleye meal for my husband , turkey club and chicken sandwich, all delicious, and we had two truly phenomenal desserts! Joseph greeted us enthusiastically on our arrival, and sent us off when we were finished just as warmly. I can’t wait to go back!

The Sicilian clam bake was one of the best meals we have ever had. The food was amazing, the wine pairings were excellent and generous, the guests were very friendly, and the service was top-notch.

I went to Johnny’s on Fulton in 1985 for a business lunch, and told my wife about the pasta primavera. We went for dinner there the following Friday, and for over 40 years, it’s been our go-to place in Cleveland. We’ve only frequented the downtown location a few times, but last Saturday it confirmed the consistency and quality we’ve come to expect. Never a disappointment with the service, atmosphere, and the pasta puttanaise (which the chef prepared a half-order for us as an appetizer). The only difference downtown is with the addition of Mike Patrone on the piano. Ownership should embrace the talent of this musician and the atmosphere he creates. Bravo to Johnny’s and we’ll continue to patronize both locations for years to come.

Great service and food, although my ravioli could have been warmer. Celebrated our 53rd anniversary. A small comp would have been nice. Excellent meal. We have always had an outstanding experience there.

We had an amazing dining experience last evening. Our server was very friendly and knowledgeable. The atmosphere was quiet and welcoming. We enjoyed meatball appetizer and wedding soup. Entree was pasta and artichoke and spinach pizza. We definitely will be back.
