Johnny's is excellent for the state of Nebraska and the filet mignon or prime rib is most probably their best choice on the expansive menu. A great place to go out to a satisfying nice lunch or evening meal as part of a couple as well as a group meal on weekends as well as weekdays. If you try Johnny's cafe once you will return on any special occasion

First time going here. Interior is clean but appears really old. The food was really good but very pricey. I was there for an event so we were given a very limited menu option and didn't actually see a menu.

Omaha's original steakhouse. Chicken fried steak, mushrooms gravy, mashed, rolls and salad w/ house Italian dressing.. Banana lumpia for dessert. Not a complaint to be had. Great bang for the buck. Tons of history to checkout also. Looking forward to my next visit.Dietary restrictions: They are very helpful.Parking: Plenty.Wheelchair accessibility: Access equipped.

Worst meal ever! My steak was dry, overcooked and flavorless. Baked potato was cold. The prime rib was half fat. I was excited to come as I've never been there. Very disappointed and will not be back.

The restaurant is near by itself and has a lot of history. The wait staff were very friendly and tried to show us things about the restaurant that we would not have figured out on our own (like the echo spot in the front lobby). The issue was, the management who were hanging about were clearly not thrilled with this and almost appeared annoyed by it. The food lacked seasoning. French fries didnt even have basic salt on them. Prime rib was sub par on every level. Tough and, again, no seasoning. Even with the end piece one at our table received there was a complete lack of seasoning. Chain steakhouses with prime rib deliver a better product for much less $$$. The saving grace for the food was the onion rings, A+.

Came to Jonny's again for lunch . Had the catfish. Was delicious! And once again the blue cheese dressing on my salad was by the best in Omaha.
First time coming here with my husband for date night. We both enjoyed our food and our server was wonderful. I had the porterhouse with scalloped potatoes and French onion soup. I loved it all, even the roll. We have plans of coming back to try the cowboy mash. I loved the atmosphere and decor so beautiful.

We went to Johnnys Cafe for a late Valentines dinner: My husband ordered the filet and I ordered the small cut of prime rib When bringing us our food the lobster fell on the floor. My husband's filet was way to done my prime rib was mostly fat and was horribly over cooked! They brought my husband's filet out and it was practically raw ,my lobster was chewy and like rubber!!! For 155 dollars we wont be going back .

Enjoyed a great Valentine's Day dinner last night. Our first visit there in a long time. We had the chateaubriand special for two and a great bottle of wine. The meat was prepared perfectly and the presentation very nice. Susie our very friendly server did a great job. She even suggested we come back and enjoy their wine tasting events twice a month. My only suggestion would be that they dim the lights a little bit--a little too bright in the dining room especially on Valentine's Day.

We have been going to Johnny's Cafe since 1978. Over the years I have only had to send.my steak back once. It was crowded and I ordered medium rare and the server heard medium. They changed it out without any trouble Last night my wife and I dropped in for a couple of martinis, two filets and some Fess Parker Frontier Red. We took half the wine home (you can do that in Nebraska) and our dinner was just fine. We have also had lunch here from time to time and no complaints there either. Part of the places charm lies with the fact that they have not redecorated the place over the years. It looks much as it did the first time I ate there in 1978. Well maintained but with a vintage vibe that is legit and I love it. Highly recommended. Good food, nice service and reasonably priced.
