I took my 9 year old daughter here after a long day. We were both starving and ordered a few minutes after we sat down. About 30 minutes after I ordered, a group of about 30 Fordham students cane in cursing and towering over my daughter’s chair as they waited to be seated. I didn’t say anything… it’s Saturday night… I get it. The waitress came by around this time to apologize for the delay and that our food would just be another 5 minutes. Shortly after that minutes after a couple came in and ordered right away. A full hour after we ordered our food(penne a la vodka & shrimp with butter noodles??? Not difficult dishes), the other couple got their food. I couldn’t believe it and just walked out. So disappointing for our mommy daughter night. We definitely won’t be back.

Fantastic lunch today with clients. There was a wait for our food… but It was worth it. Eggplant parm was amazing!

Great food but the service sucked. The waiters did not offer anything to drink and smelled like cigarettes. On top of that she brought the check in the middle of my lunch without being asked. I never leave bad reviews but this experience was horrible.

The food is delicious but the service was horrendous. Took 75 minutes for all of the food to come out because of a forgotten pizza. Unsure if we would return.

Should have listened to reviews. Went for a quick lunch with a friend yesterday. Hardly anyone at the restaurant. Had to wait a half hour for some pasta for me and a sandwich for my friend. Food was very mediocre. The waitress took our order quickly but never checked back nor let us know why the food was taking so long. Won’t be going back there.

So I was starving and this placed delivered. So I decided, hey, WHYNOT. Thin Large Pizza(15 $ + 2.50 for pepperoni) — 5⁄10. It was pretty basic, but it was freezing that night and it still came hot, so that was a plus. Light on the sauce, the cheese wasn’t GREAT but it was decent. Chicken parm w/grilled veggies(15 $): 2⁄10. The chicken wasn’t good at all, it was cold, the chicken cutlet was small and VERY thin, and the sauce was thin and watery. The veggies were the only reason I’m even giving it a 2. The veggies were hard and undercooked, but I’m weird and like them like that. However, the meal is totally not worth buying at all. Cesar salad(10.00 $): 6⁄10 it was the best part of the meal. However, it’s not really a compliment because you can’t really fuck up some lettuce and dressing. Cheese bread balls(8.00 $): 3⁄10 We wanted an appetizer, so we got some bread/cheese balls that came w/a side of sauce. Once again, watery sauce, cold, and not worth 8.00 $ All in all I give this place a D+. Maybe it taste better eaten there, but based on the reviews, I’m going to guess not. 58.00 $ to waste.

I’m really shocked that the reviews aren’t better for this place because I was really impressed. Everything on the pizza was spot on the pizza, crust and sauce perfect.

My friends warned about this place. But I didn’t realized where it was until I was until it was too late, I had already ordered. The pizza pies looked ok. The servers and staff on the order hand were grimy and nasty just like just like I was told. I ended up taking the pizza to go. No thanks

Last Friday night, Feb 19th had to be the worst experience I have ever had at a resturant. Let me explain. I wanted to take my girlfriend to dinner and I picked this spot. And this spot RUINED my night. 1st We enter the place at 9pm. «Table for two please.» No problem. Coming right up. After 10 minutes of waiting by the door like idiots several patrons who had come after us get seated first. How? Maybe they had reservations? Ok. We sit down. After we sit down we wait… and wait and wait. Finally the waitress takes our order AFTER I FLAGHERDOWN. Really? Why do I feel like a New Yorker trying to get a Cab here? It’s a RESTAURANT. You come for the service. Now in my experience waiting nearly 20 minutes to order food sucks. But not as bad as NOWATER? Isn’t it custom to serve a patron a glass of water or to give them some bread to snack on? Nothing. I had to ask for water. «Sorry were busy tonight.» Fair enough. I take a walk to the restroom and what do I see? Lo and behold the other side of this place is nearly empty. Does busy mean a nearly empty back portion of a restaurant? No. That night total there were about 20 patrons. Finally we order. Simple. A traditional pie not large, nothing fancy. A salad, nothing fancy. I’m not ordering lobster or a fresh wedding cake. Its PIZZA. Bread, sause, cheese. We arrived at 9pm and our food was served at about 9:40 — 9:45. The salad that was ordered, never arrived. She had to be reminded after she wrote it down and when she did bring it out she forgot the dressing. Ok. My girl orders a cappucino. Cappucino machine is broken. Ok. Couldn’t you tell us that earlier rather than sooner? Now I was afraid because this place closes at 10pm. I wanted a pizza to go, you know in case I get hungry. Well I ordered a large pie with toppings. When I get home and open the box one of the toppings I ordered was not on the pizza. Yet I was charged for it. Nice! They say you never get a second chance to make a good first impression and that us true. So… being a nice guy I tried to take my girl out and ended up here. My girl wasn’t happy and YOURUINEDMYNIGHT. Thanks! Your pizza is awesome… your service… many curse words come to mind that I cannot mention here. I can’t wait to tell all my friends what an unprofessional staff you have working here. I left a small tip. She looked pissed. That’s my review. Enjoy!

This is the place to go in the Bronx if you like Italian food. Food is great, the service is great… I completely recommend everything from the egg plant parm to the brick oven pizza… appetizers are amazing… drinks are pretty good too.

John’s has been a place to go for me and my crew for over 2 years now. They have great quality food and excellent service. Love to indulge in there personal whole wheat pizza, penna Ala vodka, and eggplant parm… my fav’s. The Yankees have the wall in décor, but of course. Go New York! Come check it out, and don’t forget to bring a nice bottle of wine or a six pack of some good craft beer.

Went here with my family for an early Sunday dinner. There were only 6 other people in the restaurant, that should have been our first warning. Our daughter started off with the margarita pizza which was ok. My husband and I shared the grilled calamari which in my opinion was tough. My daughter ordered the chicken Panini but only took a few bites of it. I had the spinach ravioli in vodka sauce. I was not impressed with the vodka sauce as it tasted like it came out of a can and is still repeating on me after have eaten it 4 hours ago. My husband ordered the linguini with clams. He said the linguini tasted like cardboard and the clam sauce tasted like it came out of a can and couldn’t eat much of his meal. He was definitely not impressed. My family and I will not be going back to Johns Pizzeria considering there are many other places on Arthur Ave.

First had their pizza when it was delivered to the local beer hall a few doors down and fell in love! While the service is a bit questionable this place gets 4 starts for their food! Had the personal sized buffalo chicken pizza and it was very delicious and fresh, my friend had the ham and pineapple personal pie and while I’m not a fan of those toppings I tried a slice and liked it ! The Ham was very tasty and the pineapple complimented it very well. The service, I think about 4 different people came to assist my table, a little confusing when trying to get something and I’m not aware if another person is on the way with it. Definitely a need for professional staff, or just simply someone experienced. Will probably do takeout next time.

I went there late last night. We were the only two people in the restaurant. We started off with the pizza which was delicious. My son ordered a Panini and I ordered chicken Marsala. It took about 45 minutes to get our entrées which was pretty long considering we were the only people there. The Marsala sauce seem like it came from a can which was very disappointing. The waitress was very friendly. When she gave us the check she said the refill for my soda was on the house because I waited so long. To me, that was a little insulting. I’m not sure if I’ll go back considering there are many other places on Arthur Avenue.

The johns salad is amazing. The service is terrible and take out doesn’t hold well. The chicken in my panini was dry and stiff.

Unfortunately I did not read the Unilocal reviews before we decided to stop here for lunch. As stated in other reviews the food was decent but the service was horrible. We were the only ones in the restaurant and yet we had to wait about 15 minutes before waitress came to our table. Once we ordered our drinks and appetizers it took another 10 minutes for the water to come. Keep in mind we were the only ones in the restaurant. We waited another 30 minutes for our personal pizza and pasta to come. The waitress never came by to check up on us to see if we were OK after our meal was delivered until about 5 minutes before we were done with everything and we’re ready for the check. Do not recommend this place for dining in at all.

Pretty good pizza but when I ask for bell peppers, please don’t include onions. As I was eating slices of my pizza with bell peppers, I tasted and spotted tiny onions in this. One was hiding underneath the cheese! That spoils my meal. It’s on Arthur Avenue, which you should probably check out sometime if you’re a fan of Italian food. The cannoil were delicious & I loved the cherry in the middle. Bathroom was also reasonably nice & spacious. Seems a weekday afternoon is a good time to be here.

Nothing Italian about this place. Certainly neither of the two waitresses, the guy manning the pizza oven or the single cook I saw in the kitchen. At one o’clock on a sunny Sunday the service could have been better. The absent owner should have had 2 more girls helping out. Plates were dirty, the combo appetizer was Not fresh. Pizzas were good but not what was ordered. Stick to the pie and don’t expect too much. $ 3 for a regular cup of coffee? Furgetaboutit!
