“ 1st time in Alton IL, let me just say everyone was super friendly and polite. This place had the best food in our whole trip. Absolutely recommend for the whole family. Great portions and the prices are very affordable. ”
“ First time there & both of us were impressed with the food, service & cleanness of the building. Would return again. ”
“ The atmosphere was great, and everyone including the customers were very friendly. I got the salisbury steak special with mashed tarots and green beans, and it was delicious. It seemed like it only took a few minutes before my food was served. Definitely rate this place 5 star, and going to go back to try other things on the menu. One suggestion is maybe changing the sign to restrooms only for customers instead of no public restrooms. I totally understand why the sign is there though. Also I’m not sure if there is more parking available that I didn’t see. I had to park crossed the street at the car lot at least it looked like a car sale lot. Thank you, and I’ll be back with others. I’m definitely sharing the great time I had with others. ”
“ We ordered to go. Just got Johnson's salads, but they were really good. ”
“ Good, casual place to eat, this was our first time. Dedicated parking lot directly across the road (State Street). Great menu, lots of variety, and food was great. It had more dining area than bar, but the bar was nice and cozy. Friendly, older, mixed crowd, well heeled, mostly dining. Service was great, place was clean, older building and furnishings. Brick oven pizza was great (thin but not cracker thin) and not your usually corporate pizza. Huge pork tenderloin sandwich, crinkle fries- a specialty. We saw a plate of HUGE onion rings being delivered (we were envious) and two enormous salads. SiriusXM channel 25 for music, we really enjoyed dinner there, will be back, and would recommend. ”
“ Johnson's corner is always such a great place to eat. Super nice staff and tasty food choices. ”
