| - Lovely weather, good company - the perfect evening to dine al fresco in scenic Downtown Cleveland. On a warm early-summer evening when the windows are open and the piano music drifts out from inside, Johnny's patio is the place to be.
We started with the flatbread which, while more like a skinny pizza than a flatbread, was delicious.
The entree menu offers something for (most) everyone - veal, pork, seafood, and pasta. I went with the homemade gnocchi, and it was quite good. My dining companions had similar sentiments about their angel hair pasta and entree-salad.
Don't come here if you are in a hurry, however - service was somewhat slow. There was a notable delay between our appetizer and our entrees. However! I've determined this is likely because the salad course (each entree comes with a salad of mixed greens, blue cheese, walnuts, and vinaigrette) was forgotten. So, while it was supposed to go appetizer - salad - entree, it instead went appetizer - notable wait - entree. Not a good substitution, in my opinion.
