Johnny's Chalet

"Went to Johnny's for the first time after a failed attempt to go to my local diner... it was a good life choice. The server was prompt and attentive, the food was amazing and plentiful, the place was cute and comfortable. I got 2 eggs, homefries and sausage with hollandaise on the side and was very impressed with the flavor of everything. My friend got the hash Benedict and was similarly pleased with flavor and the amount of food one gets. I'm absolutely coming back. Also, the bakery counter is going to be dangerous to my waistline. Definitely give this place a shot if you've never been. A hidden gem!"

"In the Warwick area, this place easily earns a 10 for breakfast menu variation and taste. I had the most amazing breakfast meat empanada with a side of spicy chili oil sauce that added an Asian-inspired kick. It was a unique and incredibly tasty breakfast item, deserving of a solid 10/10. While I typically shy away from very spicy food, the dip was so good that I enjoyed every morsel with dipping. Even without the dip, it was still outstanding. Another item we ordered was the Braised Short Rib Benny, and just as I suspected, it was delicious. Being a fan of short ribs, I was not disappointed. The home fries were perfectly crisp and not dry, just to my liking. I tried some from my husband's plate, and he had to stop me from eating the whole serving (lol). As a bonus, the place also showcases delectable cakes made from scratch by Johnny himself, the owner/chef. His mother, who occasionally helps with service, proudly shares this fact. However, the service can be quite slow, and there is a surcharge for credit card payments. If you don't mind the wait for a server, refills, or the check, and are willing to pay with cash to avoid the 20+% credit card fee (although this information could be communicated more clearly), then you can fully enjoy the amazing breakfast offerings at Johnny's Chalet. One thing to note is that there is no notice or sign about the credit card surcharge anywhere--neither on the menu, walls, nor as a table card. This lack of transparency can be a downside for those who value an overall good dining experience, where food is complemented by efficient service. I recommend this place for breakfast and brunch enthusiasts looking to break away from the usual options. I'm yet to try their lunch menu, but it's on my list. Hopefully, by the time I return, they have addressed the visibility of their surcharge policy on the premises and the service staff shortage."

"Very friendly and attentive staff. I believe it's family owned. They bake the breads from scratch! The food is fresh and comes to the table hot. Great portion sizes as well. They have kid friendly dishes as well as weekend specials. I've been fortunate enough to beat the morning rush every time I've come here. But I do think it probably gets very busy on weekend mornings. Parking is limited but they're quick with the food so I can see people constantly coming and going, allowing parking spots to open up."

"This is absolutely the best breakfast spot in Warwick! I’ve been a satisfied customer for over two years now. Great family owned spot. Athena eggs Benedict is by far the best Benedict I’ve ever had. It’s the feta. Delicious home fries. Egg sandwiches on an English muffin outstanding! I’ve even been for dinner and the presentation and amount of food was perfect!!! Everyone is so friendly. Home made desserts and the best spinach calzones. I’d recommend this place to anyone. Five stars all day."

"Found a new breakfast spot in Warwick, a nice old style restaurant/deli. The food was cooked to perfection, and both were there plenty of it. They say everything is bigger in Texas, but I would gather they never ate breakfast here. The staff was very attentive to our needs, and everything was great. I would definitely recommend this establishment."
