I usually sit by the bar and catch a game. This time I was in the restaurant area. Jennifer was my waitress. Very... personable,professional and easy to deal with. What actually impressed me was her personality with the youngsters sitting in thebooth in front of me. She was awesome with them. It?s people like Jennifer who keep me returning to your establishment. Read more
Woa the Beef Brisket Sandwich was amazing!!! Smokey flavor with very juicy cuts. How have I not heard about this sandwich... before??? Very generous portion on the Brisket, but skimpy on the potato wedges. Very impressed with how tender and juicy theBrisket was and will make this my go to Brisket sandwich in town. This meal is regularly $13, and worth every penny. I got myorder to go and was sad that there were no sauces in my bag. I would have loved to try any of their sauces with this BeefBrisket Sandwich!

I had a great experience at Johnny Carino's in Joplin Missouri. It was pricey, but I expected that. We ordered a peach Bellini... and a Margarita on the rocks for drinks, and we got an awesome deal for them. While the promotion for their 2 drinks for $10 wastechnically over, the promo was still active in the computer... And our awesome server was kind enough to give us this discountwhen our check was totalled up. Much appreciated, as it saved us about $8 on our alcoholic beverages. Delicious, hot and crispy,garlicy fresh bread was brought to us while we waited for the rest of our meal to arrive, complete with olive oil with spicesfor optional dipping. We ordered the Lobster Ravioli, which came with 6 ravioli in an incredible cream sauce. The pasta for theravioli was thick around the edges, the filling was disappointing because it seemed they were all half full. The filling itselftasted amazing, and it was a lovely dish. With a $19.99 pricetag, however, 6 half filled ravioli seemed like a bit of a joke.Portion size should match price, and this dish fell short in that regard. The taste was phenomenal, but the meal was so smallthat it left my partner hungry. So hungry, in fact, that the appetizer we declined at the start of the meal was actuallysomething we ended up ordering after all, after the ravioli were gone. That appetizer was their Baked Stuffed Mushrooms. With apricetag of $10.99, we got 6 stuffed mushrooms in a cream sauce. A beautiful dish, and more reasonable for the price whencompared to the Lobster Ravioli. Also ordered was the Chicken and Shrimp pasta, I ordered mine with spicy marinara instead ofthe Romano cream sauce it originally would come prepared in. For the $18.99 pricetag that came with this dish, I was pleasantlysurprised. This dish was full of pasta and chicken and shrimp, mushrooms and artichoke hearts. It was so generous a serving, Ihad to ask for a to go box for my meal. Again, adding to the disappointment in the lacking portion si Read more
Really his place to eat! We had a couple "hiccups" along the way, but, we made it work! The nachos were cold, sat too long at... the serving station, I'm sure, and they started putting Italian dressing on the house Salad of Ranch dressing! Instead ofremaking the salad they just covered up Italian dressing! Overall, it's like a scaled down version of Olive Garden! The lasagnawas good, the drinks were great and the bread and oil appetizer was outstanding! The bread was amazing and were not big breadeaters.... quite impressive! The staff was pleasant and "Will" was a wonderful bartender and easier for us the entire time!Plenty of tv's to watch, so the atmosphere was quite nice along with the clean building! There's plenty of places to eat inthis city, and this one is reliable and fulfilling.... you won't be disappointed! You'll be pleasantly impressed by the timeyou're finished! ????????????????

Review update: The manager gave us coupons for a free meal. We went, We got the best server who was the bartender guy from... Boston. He deserves a raise btw. Food was good. It was a very busy Saturday night. NO issues. Original review was a 1 star andcomments below. The lady who seated us sat us in the middle of the room, and when I asked for a booth that was a little moreprivate, pointing over to an empty one, she proceeded to tell me I cannot sit there. That I have to sit in the chairs sheoffered me. Last time I checked good businessman do not treat customers like that. And last time I checked customers who shopand spend money there are the ones who is creating them a paycheck... it would have been nice to be appreciated for me choosingto spend my money there. ???? That was Terrible service. Read more
