Johnny Pamcakes

"Our server seemed a little new but she was still great fer sure. Our order with plenty of changes no onion, extra cheese, etc. came out perfectly correct. The place was fer sure hoppin’! You know it’s going to be good food when you can’t find a parking space on a Wednesday. Loved the angled windows with the booths underneath. Really cool design for a restaurant. Will definitely be back! I want to try the Swedish pancakes which from description sound like crepes that are just a little thicker."

"The food was fantastic! They make everything specific to your order. I always order over medium eggs. It usually trips up the service somewhere, not at Johnny Pamcakes though! You can customize your meal and the server will provide substitutions despite the menu saying 'mo substitutions please." I will definitely return. As busy as they were, we got a table pretty quickly. The servers are knowledgeable and impeccable when it comes to their table service. The place was very busy though I appreciate that they still provide wonderful customer service that makes everyone feel special.
My server noticed the table next to me had a shy girl trying to order. She wouldn't speak up and wasn't sure what she wanted. The server coaxed her to find out what she liked and made an order just for her. My server also recognized people from another table and greeted them without missing a beat at her other tables."
