Johnnie's Bar & Grill - Onsted

Ordered here for the second time last night and was very disappointed! The first time everything was great, so i decided to order a few extra appetizers I wanted to try this time. The fried pickles had hardly any breading on them and were chewy and soggy. Tasted like they had been cooked for only a minute or two. The fried Mac and cheese bites also were a little cold this time too. The loaded tater tots didn’t come with all of the toppings either. Also ordered a pizza and thankfully that was delicious! We will give this place another shot because of the convenience of it being in the village maybe it was just an off night…

Stopped in on a cold snowy Wednesday evening. I had the corned beef Ruben, which was very good. It was put together perfectly and tasted great. My wife had a grilled chicken mozeralla dinner with a vegatable side and some cole slaw. She said it was good. The bartender was a good and personable guy. We had some good conversation with him and another customer. The whole bar/restaurant was clean and laid out very well. The mens room was spotless. They have a pool room with 2 tables which is a separate space but still open to the bar. This is a really nice neighborhood bar. It is a bit of a drive for us, but we will come back. The outside dining looks good for a summer evening with cold beer and music.

My wife and visited Johnnie's Bar in mid-September, 2022, for the first time. Online reviews were pretty good, so we thought we would give it a shot. Buckle up, this is a long one. (TLDR at bottom) The inside was dive-bar-like, but welcoming. I did like it, simple and to the point. There is a nice patio area, but the tables with ash trays are so close to the entrance to the building that each time the door is opened, cigarette smoke comes into the restaurant (if someone is smoking). Might be a good idea to just move them away from the door a bit. We visited on a Thursday around 6pm, and the bar was not busy. Service was decent, not exceptional, but nothing poor either. Our server was friendly. I ordered the "Chicken Tenders Dinner" which came with a two sides and the tenders. Here follo

Fun place to eat because of the live music here this evening. We sat down at 4:30 and had drinks immediately and our side salads were brought out to us quickly. Just a little loud, but great atmosphere for a bar and grill! However, the grilled cheese took way too long to be brought to the table.

I am beyond impressed with the work ethic of the staff here today. They were consistently checking in on me and had meaningful and personal conversation. I will be recommending others to come here and will be back as a regular patron soon.
