| - We've been coming to Johnny Mac's ever since we moved to Henderson over 7 years ago. We ordered Johnny Mac's for Super Bowl 48, and it was then I realized I'd never yelped about Johnny Mac's. So, I had to remedy that....
Johnny Mac's is what neighborhood bars should be. It's decently spacious with a good selection of booths, tables, and the bar. We typically get pizza/wings/chicken fingers to go and usually get sandwiches or some sort of pasta when we eat in. My favorite sandwich is the Johnny Mac Chicken, which is chicken fingers covered in hot wing sauce, cheese, and baked. It's large too, you certainly get your money's worth.
The pizza is cheesy and the toppings are plentiful. It's not a thin crust, but it's certainly not thick. Somewhere in the middle. It could have more crunch for me, but I think if they did that it would burn. So, I'm fine with it. The wife gets the chicken tenders a lot. Her favorite sauce is the watermelon BBQ. This has some actual watermelon in it, which gives the sauce texture and helps it adhere to the chicken better. Also, the watermelon gives it a sweetness that is different than other sweet BBQ sauces. The garlic cilantro has a ton of flavor, but it's thinner. This is another reason we tend to like the watermelon BBQ more.
The wings are as advertised, large, and heavily sauced. I love their hot sauce, it's a classic wing flavor with enough heat so you know it but not so much that your mouth is scalded and you don't enjoy your meal. I recommend this joint for eating in and taking out. It's a great neighborhood bar, and you get good value for your money.
