Reviews for John's Family Restaurant in Charlotte, NC

Well, this Charlotte institution is what it is. It's a friendly place with a group of regulars that include both truckers and... lawyers. Just don't go expecting anything gourmet. The menu has a million items -- and every item is pure "comfort food". Or,as my lunch-mate said, "Heart attack on a plate". Read more

Never knew it was there! It is a family managed place and prices were great and the food was very good. Wife had Salmon which I... sampled and it was excellent. We had a group of 40 and had a private back room that was perfect for a meeting. Staff wasfriendly but, like every one else short staffed. Read more

I've eaten at John's for many years. The food is really good and service is good. BUT, trying to pay your check is not a good... experience. Takes WAY TOO LONG. Please hire a consultant to evaluate your check out process. You can't have the same personhandling "Carry-Out" and "in-house" check out. I love your food and will continue coming back but please improve your cashregister check out service. Read more

Was out shopping and stopped in for dinner. Being a diner I was hoping that I could get a Club sandwich or a burger. Neither of... those are on the menu. I asked about a burger and the waitress said it was an option but after looking at the menu I decided togo with a chef salad. My husband ordered the fried flounder. The menu is very basic, for a diner, and the atmosphere seems toindicate this is more for the senior crowd. Hubby said flounder was okay but not very flavorful. Waitress was friendly and asattentive as she could be as she was waiting on everyone herself. I only saw someone else as we were getting ready to leave. Inresponse to your reply to my review, John, my one star review was not left because you had no club sandwich on the menu. Istated in my review several reasons why we felt this way about your restaurant. I also left out several things because I felt asthough it would be despairing to the clientele that you were serving at the time we were there. Read more

If you haven?t given Johns a chance you ought to. As you can see by the pictures I?ve been here a few times. I stopped in today... (1/7/22) and had the prime rib sandwich. It was damn good ???????????? Food is always delicious. It is Southern comfort food. Itjust hits your soul with each bite. Gotta order the daily specials. Yes it changes everyday. So you gotta check ?em outeveryday. You can order online and you can find the specials online too. Read more

Decided to come here after the waffle house was packed coming back from the upper room chapel. Not disappointed with our... decision at all. The place was nearly empty and very nice. Terri served us and we had a good chat with her. Top notch service!!!The menu changes, to keep things fresh. I had the Mahi and it was a winner. Location is convenient. So far, 5/5 places I've beento here in Charlotte have been above my expectations. Read more
