Most menu items are good, but not great. Stick with the steaks. I've had good experiences there, Would rate them 3 stars, but past 2 experiences I'll give them 2(lucky they don't get 1). My last visit was horrible.... (more)

We dine at Crazy Johnnies everytime we crave a good steak and don't feel like mortgaging the farm to get one. The filet is our favorite. Love the Crazy Potatoes and the BBQ Shrimp are some of the best in town. Like the bar... (more)

This is by far the one of the best steaks I've ever had. I would always order my steak well done until a friend took me here and suggested I order it rare. One of the best decisions I've made.... (more)

Crayzy Johnnie's is a great place to dine. Service is great considering how busy the restaurant is and the steak is cheap and tender. This is definately a place for you to eat if you're on a budget and close to Fat City.... (more)

<b>The Scene</b><br>Family-style dining with enough harmless adult diversion to still fit into Fat City. A showcase of merchandise bearing a sun-glassed cow sits near the door and sets the spot's laid-back mood.... (more)

AWESOME food at an incredible price. Dippin' bread or dippin' shrimp are amazing. The filet melts in your mouth. Service needs improvement. Not a fancy place, but still definitely worth a stop!... (more)

While the steak and the price is good, the atmosphere is no more than a smokey bar room. I have to say that the steak was very good, tender and cooked to perfection (medium rare). However the smoke can kill you and the... (more)

When I am on a budget but still want a good tasting steak, I always choose Crazy Johnnie's. The price is really unbeatable for the cut of meat you choose. Only thing I disliked are the televisions going in every corner.... (more)

In a city with the finest eating establishments on the planet, Crazy Johnnie's fills your need for beef. You can order a steak at Ruth's Chris or Houstons or many other fine places but the $7.99 sirloin strip or $11.99... (more)

This was our first time to Crazy Johnnie's. It took several trips around the block to finally find somewhere to park. The steak that I had was heavy on the garlic, but since I like garlic that was fine with me. However,... (more)

Crazy Johnny's has The Harbor beat by far for steaks. The service is better, the food is better, the employees are not rude, the place is neater and cleaner, the atmosphere is a lot nicer, the music is at a reasonable... (more)

CRAZY JOHNNIES DOES DELIVER PROBABLY THE LEAST EXPENSIVE FILET IN TOWN HOWEVER I HAVE FOUND THAT THE FLAVOR (AND FRESHNESS) LEAVE MUCH TO BE DESIRED. MORE THAN ONCE HAS MY STEAK HAD AN ODOR RENDERING IT INEDIBLE.... (more)

Excellent Prime Steaks & Schrimp @ -$10. Ask for C/J Off Menu Specials. I love Prime Philly-Schrimp combo w/super buttery/garlic potatoes for under $10. They make a killing on drinks, but wine by glass are large. As... (more)

Being visitors to your city, we were taken to Crazy Johnnies by friends. Though very noisy, it did not take away from the excellent steaks we had at the very best price imaginable. The wine was even on special at 2 for 1... (more)

I eat here a lot. This is the only place to get a filet. Why pay $20 plus for a steak when you can get the same cut of beef for $9. The garlic potatoes as the signature side item are the best.... (more)

We have always like Crazy Johnnie's until a few months ago. The steak was very dry and the potatoes which were always very good were bland. I sent my entire meal back and we haven't been back.... (more)
