Welcome to Johnny's! To start, you will have a delicious basket of bread, and a plate for olive oil & parmesean cheese, sprinkled w/ a little pepper, for a dip. (Seen below is Leyton, demonstrating how to eat this delicacy. Sorry it's blurry - it's also dark in there & most of my food pictures didn't turn out nearly as well as the pasta one!)
With your entree, you will be given a dinner salad, complete with Johnny's signature balsamic dressing. I do not like iceberg, but there was some purple cabbage in there, tomatoes, croutons, and carrots, so I was able to sample the dressing. Very tastey! Not as bitter or sharp as the Olive Garden's signature dressing (which I also like), more on the sweet side, and very enjoyable!
For my main dish, I tried the Portabello Tortellini with Shrimp. The pasta is stuffed and topped with cheese, and I admit I added more cheese from the parm on the table. Mmm! Not only are there mushrooms & a mushroom cream sauce, but sweet red peppers and broccoli are added for a superb taste! The shrimp were rather large and firm, seasoned to perfection & very complimentary to the sauce. Give it a try, it's worth the price, I think!
I really enjoy tri-colored pastas, and am always pleasantly surprised when restaurants use them. More should take advantage of the nutritional value spinach & squash pastas offer!
What have you been eating lately? Anything worth sharing? : )
Until next time, keep the rubber on the road!
