on Citysearch May 11, 2008Most 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)

on Citysearch Nov 05, 2005This 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)

on Citysearch Mar 15, 2005Crayzy 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)

on Citysearch Sep 07, 2004<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)

on Citysearch Jul 25, 2004AWESOME 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)

on Citysearch Aug 23, 2003While 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)

on Citysearch Aug 04, 2003When 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)

on Citysearch Jun 30, 2003In 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)

on Citysearch Jun 08, 2003This 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)

on Citysearch May 27, 2003Crazy 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)

on Citysearch Jan 24, 2003Excellent 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)

on Citysearch Oct 02, 2002I 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)
