    Hello WNY'ers ... we dined at Johnny D's last night (old, warm memories of E. B. Green's/The Hyatt), and we highly suggest visiting this restaurant! Delicious, enticing food, top-notch service, and coooooool ambiance! Varied apps/entrees and walking distance to most theaters . . . must visit again and taste more!!!

    This was our first visit to johnny D's and likely will be our last. This is a hotel restaurant with a limited menu and very limited wine list. We were seated on arrival and had intended to eat outside but the outside tables did not appear to be set-up and we decided to eat inside. When we were seated, the restaurant was half-full with customers. Our server was a pleasant young woman who appeared somewhat new in the position. We ordered appetizers and drinks that were delivered promptly. The food overall was satisfactory but not outstanding for the price. I requested a second glass of wine but the server probably forgot about it. After waiting about 15 minutes, I asked the server again and she promptly provided the second glass but it was after I finished my meal. The most annoying part of our experience was the loud music by a pianist who was also singing. We were not able to carry on a conversation without talking very loudly. It should be noted that the pianist was very good but way too loud. She did not need any amplification in this relatively small restaurant. My wife and I enjoy music; our son is a musician. However, it was not pleasurable listening to the loud music continuously. This needs to be toned down. Suffice it to say that this restaurant will not be on our future list of dining out places.

    Great food. Great service by Dan. My only issue is having to pay for bread service and not getting a dinner salad. If you're paying for an upscale dinner I think you should at least get bread. Oh by the way they charge $7 for bread!! Overall I would go back.

    My wife and I celebrated our anniversary with a dinner for two. The service was exceptional! What a great staff. The presentation and quality of the meal was excellent. My wife and I plan on a return visit and would recommend Johnny D's to all.

    The Starters menu is wonderful. We had the deviled eggs with chow chow (amazing), the Flatbread (check out the ingredients) and the Baked Brie with Blueberry. All the starters really filled us up! On our next visit, we will have items from the Main menu. The ambiance is perfect for a little cocktail get-together. Highly recommend.
