    Johnny V's takes your average chicken, rolls it around in a Captain Crunch crust, fries it, and serves the delicious concoction atop a classic waffle with maple syrup and served with melon and berries

    Johnny Vinczencz's food is always recognizable by familiar flavors rooted in our country's regional cuisines - just disguised with worldly-wise additions & daring dashes of gastronomic ingenuity.

    Every Sunday morning, the chefs at Johnny V's coats its chicken in a layer of Captain Crunch crust, throws it in the fryer, and sticks it on a classic waffle with some good ole maple syrup. Read more

    Just had the blackened grouper and it was awesome. Also don't be afraid of the garlic / blue cheese creamy bliss spread for the bread. Tasty!

    Usually when you go to a restaurant by a chef that was on tv, you may be underwhelmed, but this place was actually pretty great. If you're in the area go to this place. You'll be glad you did.

    The Blue Corn Crusted Calamari is highly recommended by Barbra Streisand. And yes, she is right. It's delicious! And the smoky tomato soup is yummy.
