Customer Reviews

"Said this before...I'll say it again: looking for the best burger in Egg Harbor Township? This is it. I've tried the rest... 5 Guys is good, Tony Beef? Fuhgeddaboudit. Who else? Johnny's is always fresh, cooked to your liking perfectly and guess what? It's priced to eat not dream about affording. Do yourself a favor: see if I'm wrong. If so, let me know."

"Everyone is SO KIND. It really has an old school family vibe. The early morning specials are the best!! Come before 10am"

"This restaurant is the epitome of small town eating. I always see the same servers and cooks working. They know everyone that walks in by name. It's a family you just want to be a part of. Not only that, these are the best pancakes I've had. I can't make them this good at home! The prices have gone up since COVID but everything is still a great deal. I can't forget that they also serve lunch. You're missing out if you haven't eaten here."

- Joe
