Johnny's Hideaway

*Didn't try the food* Overall, Johnny's gets a 4/5 stars in my book. The vibe is great. We got there at about 8PM and it was pretty full already. By the time we left at 11:30, it was basically shoulder to shoulder in the entire place. When I say the drinks are strong, I mean the drinks are STRONG. I was drinking beer. Friend got a Redbull Vodka - if you told me it was straight vodka, I probably would've believed you. If you're drinking for the flavor, maybe try something else. If you want a strong drink, boy is this the spot for you. I did not realize there was a dress code prior to getting there. My fault for not checking. Was wearing jeans, a flannel, and underneath a shirt with some print on it. Took the flannel off when I got a bit warm, one of the bouncers/employees did ask if I would put my flannel back on to cover the printed tee. No harm - just pointing it out. The service was pretty solid for how busy the place was. Waitresses were kind, and quick to bring drinks. The bartender was pretty quick to notice new patrons standing by the bar to order drinks. My three gripes are: 1. By the time we left, it was almost too busy. Literally shoulder to shoulder in the whole place. So much so you might as well be throwing elbows just to make it to the restroom. But if that's what you're looking for, this is a great spot! 2. There was a plethora of other patrons who had team logos, brand logos, etc, who were seemingly never told they needed to cover them. 3. Lack of seating. I get it, it's not a massive place. The dance floor and bar take up a good portion of the interior. Which limits the number of tables. Not being a regular or Atlanta native, I was unaware tables had to be reserved (potentially days) in advance. (Again, this may be on the website. But if you're just out and about, and no nothing about Johnny's, you may be in for a surprise.) Overall, I would come back, but would likely reserve a table. Otherwise (unless you make friends) you can probably expect to be standing for a majority of the time.

What a great place for ALL ages. Went on a Friday night after dinner on a guys trip who are closer to 50 than we admit, but didn't feel like we were too old or out of place with age range from early 20s to 50s. The atmosphere is the best part. Very good selection of music. Be ready to dance as that is what this is mostly set up for. I think I can describe it as music played at many weddings. There are tables and a bar that is a little cramped, but really, plan on dancing. Mixed drinks were nothing special but not bad either.

Great retro lounge vibe with an eclectic jukebox (or DJ, though there wasn't one there when I went around happy hour) that plays everything from Frank Sinatra to modern dance hits. As we were there, it started filling up, and more & more people were on the dance floor, some looking like professionals! Ages ranged from 21-75, maybe older? Very cool vibe! Food wasn't bad, either.

I had a great time dancing! Did not realize you had to reserve a table in advance, otherwise your pretty much standing. The people were friendly and let us sit at their table while they danced. Did not eat or drink anything......the bar was full, the servers friendly but very busy. Definitely would go again though since it was fun to let loose n dance!!!!!!!!
