John's City Diner is the perfect spot for lunch or dinner The menu is familiar southern comfort but as promised on the menu it's not exactly like your grandma made. Traditional southern dishes are elevated to a new realm. Not for the sake of making them fancy but definitely better. Familiar southern dishes like pork chop, baked chicken, fried chicken and waffles are southern staples but each dish is elevated in taste and presentation that makes them better and makes you want to return and try another entree because everything is so good! Even Mac and Cheese can stand as entree presented in three varieties, it is simply the very best. The prices are very reasonable and the service is outstanding. Although the bar is small in size the cocktails and liquor selection is amazing. A variety of hand picked bourbon and tequila options elevate the cocktails with drinks that are both familiar and unexpected but always delicious.
I am so delighted. What amazing food! Had the mac cheese added grilled shrimp to it. Unbelievable! Also had the frozen lemonade dessert. Could not have been better! Super service from Trudy. I’d recommend this to anyone!
Tony made our dinner special. He was very engaging but not intrusive and his attentiveness made us feel welcomed. Another staff member approached us and recalled waiting on us several years ago before the pandemic. We were appreciative of her recollection. Our food was delicious. We loved the cornbread appetizer, the yummy Cobb Salad, the perfectly grilled shrimp on several dishes, and the meatloaf which stood up to the “famous” declaration.
Amazing! Amazing! Fried okra appetizer, chicken waffles, hamburgers, and baked chicken to the bread pudding dessert and the mixed drinks absolutely everything was incredible. Ask for Tony to serve you. He embodies humility and kindness. He loves people and it shows in his impeccable service.
