" I had my first experience at Johnny Jo’s Pizzeria a few days ago and I was very pleased! From the moment I entered I felt a warm welcome from the staff. I opted for a recommended slice of pepperoni and was extremely impressed by the fresh toppings and the perfectly baked crust. It was a little on the greasy side, but I didn’t mind that at all. Just remember, if you're looking to sit in, this place is all about takeout! Can't wait to return and explore their unique offerings! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting Johnny Jo's Pizzeria is very much like visiting a friend's home—they're welcoming and want to share their love for great pizza! I tried the classic pepperoni and it was evident they take pride in their ingredients. The portion sizes were just right for a decent price. However, the wait times can stretch a bit during peak hours. They definitely keep their pizzas fresh and tasty! Overall, I had an excellent experience here, and I will return for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was really excited to try Johnny Jo's after hearing so much hype, but my experience was somewhat mixed. The pizza did have a nice crisp to it, and the ingredients seemed fresh. However, I ordered a slice with extra cheese and found that the portion was a bit underwhelming. I sat outside and the limited seating left me feeling crowded. The staff was polite but a little hurried. Overall, I might give them another shot since many people rave about their flavors! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been to many pizza joints around town and Johnny Jo's really stands out! Their offerings have a knack for flavor while keeping the ingredients fresh. The staff was incredibly polite and made my experience enjoyable. I had a slice of their specialty pizza today and I must say, it didn’t disappoint! Solid portion sizes at great prices. With limited seating, I'd highly recommend doing takeout to enjoy at your leisure! You won't be upset! " (*Curated Review*)

" Highly impressed with Johnny Jo’s Pizzeria! I ordered the sausage and mushroom slice, and it was packed with flavor! The portion sizes were good and not too overwhelming, allowing me to try other items. Have to give a shoutout to their garlic knots—they were absolutely amazing! I would recommend avoiding busy hours, as my wait was a bit longer than expected. However, it was well worth it once I dug in! I will most definitely be coming back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Unless you love greasy pizza, steer clear of Johnny Jo's during busy hours! I decided to try this popular spot late one Friday and was quite disappointed. My cheese slice was dripping with oil and lacked flavor. I understand every place can have an off-night, but this left me skeptical. The service was okay, but the cramped outdoor seating felt so chaotic. I might give it another chance during the week and hopefully get a fresher slice. " (*Curated Review*)

" Johnny Jo's Pizzeria does have its charm, especially if you’re craving a classic New York slice. I visited on a Friday night, and it was quite busy, with a line of eager customers waiting for their pizza slices. I opted for the Margherita, which had a light crust with a delicious sauce, though I found it a tad on the sweet side. The portions are generous, but be prepared to wait for your order during peak hours. Prices are reasonable considering the quality. I did notice the staff's pace was a bit hurried, and the service could use a touch of friendliness. " (*Curated Review*)
