"Great chicken salad, very good bbq dressing."

"Looking for a great "Hole in the wall" burger and breakfast place ... this is it. At John's Place, you'll get good serving sizes at a good price. We've always enjoyed great service and a very comfortable atmosphere. I recommend the shrimp dinner and ask for 1/2 fries and 1/2 zucchini."

"I have driven by John's Place dozens of times and finally stopped in tonight. I had a Burger, Onion Rings and Chocolate Cake. Compared to most Diner-type restaurants the Burger was twice as thick, juicy and flavorful. It is the best Burger in it's class! I ordered the Onion Rings well done (I like them a little browner than usual) and they were delicious! Crispy, Light, with the most flavorful batter coating ever. I will go back just for these. On the way in I looked at the Dessert Case. There was Cheesecake, Chocolate Cake, Pumpkin Pound Cake, Muffins and more. Everything looked amazing and I ordered a piece of the Chocolate Cake. The Chocolate Cake was incredible! Rich, Fudgy and Fresh! At most restaurants like this desserts are an afterthought and are usually awful. I can't believe how great this Chocolate Cake tasted. It is better than the Cheesecake Factory's Chocolate Cakes. I can't wait to try their other Desserts and their Shakes. Excellent Service and Ambience. This is a neighborhood gem and you have to try it. Bravo John's Place!"

"Lovely local restaurant for breakfast. Enjoy the music/selected radio station on a weekday morning. For a somewhat fast-food place, the service is great - server was friendly and provided sincere recommendations. Will come back again. :) P.S. no need to wait for anyone to start. Go to the counter for ordering and then pick your table. With that being said, it's probably more efficient to come with a partner lol."
