This place is top notch in every way. First of all, just to get it out of the way... yes this is now the king of cheesesteaks in south west florida. Nobody comes close to Johnny's. Now that thats out of the way I can drill down a bit. The atmosphere is incredible, very clean inside with very cool decor. The menu is big and beautiful and very easy to read/understand. Prices are very fair, and you get a lot for your money. My cheesesteak was huge, packed with meat and the perfect amount of coopers sharp american cheese. The meat was seasoned very well, and absolutely delicious and tender with no chewy fatty pieces... which frankly is enough to make me throw a cheesesteak right in the trash. The staff is super friendly and courteous, always making sure you are doing ok and asking if you need anything. This place is going to be a gold mine and I love to see it. Johnny Longhots, you got a long time customer in me, and I wish you all nothing but the most wonderful success!
Wow STRAIGHT FROM PHILLY and this is a MUST! The place was completely packed with Philadelphias and “wanna be” Philadelphians and with the line was out the door! They have roast pork, hot links, hoagies and other Philly specialties but the star of the show is the Philadelphia Cheesesteaks! They have provolone, American, and “cheese” WIZ for cheese selections and the WIZ is a Philly tradition. I know because I am originally from Philly! They beat out Pats, Gino’s, DAllesandro’s but they are is “neck and neck” with Jim’s steaks on South street! The owner was named Michael is friendly, professional, and truly goes out of his way to make sure every person who walks through the door is welcome. He greets all his customers, and high fives anyone from Philly like they are part of the family! Great food, great place, and the service spectacular! They even have an employee named Preston who works harder than any kid I know, busing tables, bringing out food and flashing a huge smile while spreading kindness where ever he goes. When you go to this restaurant make sure to say HI to him! What a great kid!! If you come to Sarasota and miss a taste of home or just want to try a famous Philly Cheesesteak, GO HERE! No better place in the South! They have a small dining area which is accessible and a couple tables outside which would be a more accessible option if you have a large mobility device on a busy day! Although I suspect they are busy everyday! There is a total PHILLY vibe inside and out and everywhere you look, which makes you think you are back on South Street! Thanks for your excellent hospitality!! We will definitely be back! Thank you Michael for a taste of HOME! GO BIRDS 🦅 !!
I had been craving a yummy meatball and these might be the best ones I've ever eaten. So flavorful! I happened to find them on their opening weekend... what a delight! The owner, Michael, was enthusiastically greeting everyone and made sure we all got cookies or a (incredible) fresh made cannoli. The fact that Rocky was playing on the TV was a fun detail. I've been back already and the place was packed both times. This place is the real deal and is clearly a labor of love.
