Review John's Family Restaurant - Charlotte

25 years in business, now under new ownership. The sausage and shrimp jambalaya was very good, the chicken parmesan was good, needing more sauce. Very reasonably priced. I'll be back; it can be a challenge taking over a well established business. Wishing them great success.

Cozy little place with excellent home cooked meals. Had the roast beef with sweet potato casserole and collard greens. They have lots of sides to choose from. Roast beef was very tender and quite flavorful. Recommend getting the french bread and not the cornbread. Cornbread was dry

Great find!!! I had the hamburger steak with gravy, onions and corn bread. I felt like I was back home at my Nana’s and Papa’s. Amazing service, polite staff. Very quiet and relaxed environment!!

If you haven’t given Johns a chance you ought to. As you can see by the pictures I’ve been here a few times. I stopped in today (1/7/22) and had the prime rib sandwich. It was damn good 🔥🔥🔥 Food is always delicious. It is Southern comfort food. It just hits your soul with each bite. Gotta order the daily specials. Yes it changes everyday. So you gotta check ‘em out everyday. You can order online and you can find the specials online too.

Very nice family restaurant. Serving great American food. Our group of 16 was attended to very nicely by staff. And we sampled a good portion of the moderately extensive menu. Food was very good, service great. Definitely worth a visit. Meals were very good for price so a great value. Enjoy.

Decided to come here after the waffle house was packed coming back from the upper room chapel. Not disappointed with our decision at all. The place was nearly empty and very nice. Terri served us and we had a good chat with her. Top notch service!!! The menu changes, to keep things fresh. I had the Mahi and it was a winner. Location is convenient. So far, 5/5 places I've been to here in Charlotte have been above my expectations.

One of the best home cooked food restaurants around hands down. I haven't had a bad thing from there yet from the fried flounder to chicken parmesan, to the hamburger steak. Everything is delicious and made from scratch and it shows. The desserts are also homemade and delicious as well. Togo food is still same fantastic taste and quality

I visit this restaurant every time I am in town to visit my brother. The food is always good. We went 2 weeks ago and the food tasted so fresh. The young girl that served us was exceptional. They have def upped their game. 5 stars!!

We've enjoyed this restaurant for years. I like the Greek food and banana pudding. Great desserts!

I enjoyed eating here. First time visiting here. Food was delicious. Highly recommend the fried squash.

Family/Country style restaurant. Lots of menu items. Double fried squash is great! The jumbalaya was surprisingly very delicious. Sausage, chicken, and shrimp were great in this dish.

Family style restaurant with a great service, delicious food, and very low prices.

My family has loved John's restaurant for years. We recently found out there is a new owner and we tried it and the food is the same if not better!

Was in this place many years ago and got to eat lunch many times it's nice to see they're still open and still serving superior food is. Food an hospitality definitely we'll be back again to eat had grilled pork chops with red potatoes in butter sauce Squash and zucchini casserole corn bread it was superb 👍

John's Family Restaurant is a cozy little homey place full of character and personality, and of course, great food. I'm in Charlotte for work and don't know the area so I found this place in Google Maps and figured I'd give it a shot. From when we first came in, my colleague and I were warmly greeted by our waitress and led into a very simple dining room that felt like a family run business should. THE FOOD: To start us off, we got free bowls of vegetable soup which was delicious and a welcome start to our meal. Our waitress was a sweet older lady who was super nice and had such a great personality. Her jokes and quips were well needed after a long work day. I had the sliced roast beef and gravy which was fall off my fork tender and just the perfect amount of saltiness. It was definitely one of the better roast beefs I've had and truly filled my heart and stomach with comfort My colleague had the fried chicken which took longer to cook (they warned us before so we were prepared) but it looked handmade and from what I heard, tasted handmade as well. For our sides, we had mashed potatoes, which I didn't care for as much, but I'm more of a creamy mashed potato guy so that's just personal preference, and banana pudding. I'm not a huge banana pudding fan but it sounded good and my God it was. It was deliciously sweet and full of flavor. It tasted homemade and I finished it off happily, which is much more than I can say for many banana puddings. You checkout up front and the cashier lady was a very nice Greek lady who very well could've been one of the owners with her smile and cheer. She said that fried chicken was her first meal coming over from Greece and it was nice talking to her. Definitely coming back here next time I'm in town. Easy 5/5 stars

Never came here before even I work around this area always saw their restaurant is busy! Well was today just happen to be not crowded, enjoy my lunch and wine really nice cheesecake Thank you JAS

A great, sweet restaurant. Great price $!!!for great quality. 😊 The service melts your heart, very home-like and caring.😊

Good food, more than ample portions (we usually have enough to take home for another meal), friendly wait staff, excellent service. John and wife treat you like family. They don't serve canned veggies--always fresh.

Good food and a lot of it!!!! Everything was good, always have enough for another meal.

Our favorite place for good home cookin! You can't beat it! We have been eating at Johns since he use to be across the street about 20 or so years ago. Never been disappointed!
