    Finally decided to give them a try - wish I had tried them sooner! I ordered pickup early in the day; the meat was DELICIOUS and the sandwich portion was much larger than I expected. I'm a big eater, but I could only finish half my sandwich. (I also snacked on my friend's order, so that didn't help...)

    I'm not crazy about the sauce - I like a thicker, sweeter sauce - but it was still tasty, and although I don't generally like unsauced ribs they were delicious even without any sauce. But mainly the brisket - !!! I'm just going to order it from Johnny's whenever I want to have some without turning my whole house into an oven. Every other place I've had brisket at, it's been dry and sort of flavorless, but this was just like my mom's. Made me long for mashed potatoes and gravy!

    I also liked the potato salad - the texture is unusual, almost as if there were mashed potatoes in there with the cubes, and while I generally favor a mustard dressing and MUCH less celery (or at least smaller chunks), this was still quite tasty.

    The staff were friendly and efficient on all three contacts I had, and cheerfully brought the food out for curbside pickup.

    I would like to see a sweeter sauce option, and after looking over their menu I have to urge others to be careful - the take-out packages seem to be much more expensive than just buying the same amount of meat + sides, unless their buns are like $2 each. But I'm thrilled to have an option for buying tasty brisket & ribs from a local business instead of trying to do it myself.

    Looking forward to trying some of their other options soon!

    First time customer and Its was great, the food portions are huge not like the other bbq pits and the sides are off the hook. The cashier was so nice and helpful. Cant wait to go back on Sat to try the ribs. Great job

    I'm a truck driver and had a delivery not too far from Johnny's. When my co-driver and I got to our drop, they had just gone to lunch. We were starving, so we decided to order for delivery. Despite Johnny's not really doing delivery, they still took our order and delivered to our truck. I'm glad they did, so we could have this absolutely delicious lunch. We will definitely be going here next time we're in the area, so we can sit down and have the dine-in experience.

    Went there today for lunch because I was curious since I always see it from the road. I was definitely surprised with a really great tasting BBQ sandwich. Don't judge a book by it's cover was never more true. The menu is simple but just right! I got the big Johnny sandwich with everything on it, a bag of chips and a tea. The BBQ was awesome and really good! The BBQ sauce is delicious and the pickles and onions with the warm roll bring it all together. They don't skim on the brisket either! This was definitely a two hander! The price was very good for the quantity and quality of brisket. The staff was very friendly and prompt. I'm definitely going to be visiting this place again very soon. I need to try their beans and potato salad... Great job and don't change a thing!
