Most of the time, the food is very good. Pasta, chicken and veal. We had the fried calamari, it was old and disgusting. But now you are blaming the FOOD DISTRIBUTER for old CalamariThe family member who responds to the reviews, always will not accept any critism.Why is the emplyoyee turnover so high? The reason why you are losing employees, is bacause Sir John has his family working the weekend nights and parties.Plus you are adding a percentage for customers to use their credit cards. FYI - now NYS law says you must show cash bill vs credit card.Sir John is a nice hardworking man! Always treats his customers with respect. But he needs to retire and relax......

So great! We had a family get together recently with a lot of food and a lot of people. The owners and staff are so accommodating and sweet and the food is delicious. Don't sleep on Sir John's!

Honestly.....I'm not sure why I haven't reviewed Sir John's on yelp yet, maybe because we always consistently have great meals here and locals know it's a great restaurant?? Maybe because I know I have so many good things to say? This is going to be a bit long... so here it goes!! I grew up in Valhalla and was raised going to this restaurant with my family and friends family it has always been a one of the Italian restaurants we all went to for a great meal. I no longer live up in Westchester, I've been living out of state for a number of years. Even when I got married, 17 years ago I wasn't living in NY but I still did my rehearsal dinner here, as well as my brother doing his rehearsal dinner here. We've also had several celebrations of life for my Grandmother and my parents. This past weekend we celebrated a Christening, I helped my brother and wife plan the party. Once again , John and his staff did not disappoint! The food was fantastic, appetizers were first followed by the supreme buffet, everything served tasted great! Penne ala vodka, chicken francese,scarpariello, sausage and peppers roasted potatoes were all fantastic. Party goers went up 2 and 3 times! If you are ever looking for a venue for a party, I highly recommend John and his staff! Great party, great food and the fairest prices around!

Unfortunately, I’ve eaten here several times (family gatherings), so this isn’t a one-off. Each meal has been consistently lacking and the service isn’t any better. After the last fiasco of a gathering several of us put our foot down and said never again.

This place is an old school hidden gem, 5 minutes from downtown WP. Good food and great pizza - New York style with a crispy, slightly thicker crust. Easily one of the best slices you will find in Westchester.
Outstanding food and service. The owner is fantastic as well as his staff and the food.........what can I say it's done to perfection. Barbara makes you feel right at home, for my money there is no better place in White Planes.

John the owner treats everyone like family. I am from N.J. and have been going to Sir Johns for over 25 years with my N.Y. friend. The food portions are ample and always served with fresh Italian bread and water. The pricing is very reasonable.Parking: Right outside the door.

We've been orbiting Sir John's in North White Plains for the last 21 yrs without stepping foot in here until one exhaustive Friday evening. There's a Bar+ Lounge area used for gatherings/wedding receptions like the one taking place when we came here and a smaller dining room to the left which was a damn hot mess that doubled as a catch-all for coats, plastic bags, etc from the wedding party. The unavoidable mozzarella cheese sticks+sauce we ordered were ok. My Rosé was crisp and enjoyable and hubs liked his Rum & Coke. My Fettuccine Alfredo with shrimp add-on was tasty and interesting- just because the Alfredo sauce was loose compared to what I'm used to elsewhere. Still good. Hubs liked his Chicken Parm with the cheese nice and brown the way he likes it. Our garlic+oil Broccoli was a terrific side. We were satisfied with the meal. Heck, we were so full that I bypassed dessert. We were given a boatload of Italian cookies (tasty, actually) and ended taking the rest home. Our server Barbara, was quick on her feet and a charm. Kudos to this spot not far off from Kensico Dam for offering a house salad with fresh- not wilted, spinach+greens. Strip mall or not, Sir John's has that old-fashioned Italian comfort food at inexpensive prices. Don't completely rule this one out because of their middle-level rating. We didn't- and dinner turned out good.

This restaurant is excellent. The owner and staff are great and friendly. I highly recommend the eggplant parmigiana.

Finally, we found an old school Italian joint in the White Plains area that Sinatra and Dean Martin would love. The food is outstanding, the service is very friendly, plenty of parking... and no inflation here, prices are very reasonable. Dinner for two with a bottle of wine for about $85 plus tip. Loved it!Best chicken parm we've ever had, homemade fettuccine and angel hair pasta. Eggplant parm is also outstanding... Will definitely be back.
