My husband and I enjoyed a special celebration at Johnnie's. The service was great. We were asked more than once how the meal tasted, if we wanted anything else.... The filet was delicious -- tender and perfectly prepared. One of the best steaks I've ever had -- maybe even the best!

This is a fine steak hoouse seafood restaurant. Had the grouper, salmon blackened, seafood mixed grill. Good salad, very white fresh rolls. Portions are modest but well prepared. This is a good alternative to the overkill of chain restaurants in Orlando, but small portions for price charged.

After reading some reviews from people with children, we were hesitant to dine here with ours, ages 6 and 8......fears unfounded! From the time the valet opened the car door (addressing my daughter as princess-she loved it) to the time he closed it, our experience was wonderful......we are hard to please, as I am career F&B, and tend to be...

The servers were very nice and attentive. The food was good, but not great. I ordered a filet oscar and it was average at best. My wife had scallops and they were good, but nothing spectacular. The apps were delicious and we should have just ordered more of them. The stone crab was delicious and the seared tuna was fantastic.... More

We had the Fisherman's Feast and it was fantastic. A huge portion of food and it was all very good. The salad and cheese bread before the main meal was also excellent.

The settings were nice, but I would only consider the food average, and overpriced for what you get. The service was good, but wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

Everything was average at best. We were seated in the "better" part of the restaurant, only to have the sun piercing my sisters eyes for a good part of the evening, no shades. The house salad, which the server recommended was bland. The nicest part of our meal was a complimentary appetizer that the manager brought to our table and... More

We found this restaurant on the way back to the hotel from Universal, and we were so glad we did! It's an excellent restaurant which specializes in seafood, but we all tried the steak (two ribeyes and a filet) and found it's very good too! Patti, our server, took very good care of us. We didn't have a reservation, and... More

Ate here last night after catching sight of it from the road. The location is nice but I was shocked at the prices. I had the Grouper and Crap Cake Topping "Special" which came in about $46. The Grouper was over cooked and the Crab Cake was indiscernable from the rest of the fish. No sides either! The Salad was... More
