Came into Johnny’s for a slice and the atmosphere is great, VERY friendly attentive and over the top customer service. The pizza came out PERFECT temperature, great under carriage, little flop but not much, great crunch and the crust was phenomenal. Being from Chicago and great slice is hard to come by but Johnny’s is by far the best slice i have had in Knoxville!

This is a new family favorite! Right up there for best wings in Knoxville - get them crispy, you won't be disappointed. Pizza is delicious and everything has such a fresh flavor. Also, the cherry on top - both times we've been, the staff has been SO friendly. 10/10 customer service. We'll be here a lot!

Went for dinner on Friday night. We found this one after we went to the one in Johnson City. Wings were good. We ordered a large buffalo chicken pizza. The first one was undercooked so the waitress had them cook a second one. The second one was cooked but the crust was crispy. It was a disappointing experience to say the least. The Johnson City location always makes amazing food it just seems like this location needs help with making dough, and ultimately preparing the pizza itself. The wings were much better at the Johnson City location. The waitress and the manager were very courteous and showed concern but overall the food was underwhelming. Try this place for yourself and if it works for you that's fine but you definitively don't know what you are missing if you haven't visited the Johnson City location.
