Johnny's Tavern

headed here for lunch last week with a friend and our two 2-year-old kids. got here right at the heart of the lunch rush but grabbed the last available booth.

my friend and I both ordered a cobb salad and our server asked us whether we wanted a half or whole, even though the half wasn't mentioned on the menu. we both ordered the whole and probably didn't need to but devoured it because it was so good (and both being pregnant probably contributed to our hunger)

ordered my little guy a grilled cheese, which he devoured and also shared a few of his fries. it was supposed to also come with ice cream but we had to head out to the zoo. with a drink also included, it was a great deal for $4.95.

living within walking distance, it a place we always forget about because it's tucked into the corner of Corinth Square. probably wouldn't head in here to watch a game, but it's a great place to come for dinner.

also worth mentioning... while our kids were getting a little restless (it was busy so the food took a little longer) we discovered that the individual TVs at the booths can be changed to different channels. no sound, but my little guy was much more content once Clifford the Big Red Dog was on the screen.

Good burgers, nice service and plenty of access to sports on TV make Johnny's the "comfort food" of pubs. I like their community spirit and recommend it for casual dining.

Went here for a special comedy show. It was already crowded by the time we got there. Wait service was great.. we didn't eat this time, but I want to go back and try the food. Drinks were cheap, but WEAK. Comedy show was bad, but that wasn't their fault.
