    Grilled Cheese Sandwich
    Mattie Y.

    I've actually never been to a Johnny Rockets before and I had a great experience here. Of course it is not the best food in the world, but they have just what you want before a flight. The service was great and prices were cheap, especially for an airport restaurant. I got the grilled cheese and my boyfriend got the chicken tenders. Love the local beer on tap!

    Double hamburger with chili fries

    The food was excellent just as I remembered from years ago. Fast and really friendly service. The prices really wasn't that bad I will definitely go there again

    Great food and experience. Their homemade ranch dressing is my favorite condiment ever. Our waiter Steve hooked it up with multiple ranch dressings to go and was really charismatic and made the experience enjoyable :). My husband raved about his rocket double and my grilled chicken salad was delish. Thanks Johnny Rockets!

    The Spicy Houston Burger
    Nick M.

    Stopped by Johnny Rockets for the first time in a long time after wandering around the mall. Stopped in at about 2:30 on a Wednesday afternoon. There was no wait to be seated and the restaurant was maybe 30% full. I sat at the counter. I ordered a Spicy Houston double with fries and an unsweet iced tea. Food came very, very quickly. Everything about the food was pretty average, certainly not bad, but nothing to write home about. My server, Ashley, was friendly and provided prompt service. I only give it 4 stars because altogether my meal was 18.01- a little steep in my opinion. Probably won't be back for a long time, but it was still a good experience.

    You can do better anywhere in the mall. We were sat by Steve who put us in high top seats right next to the food prep area and walkway for the servers at 11:45 am when the restaurant was empty. The food court would've been a more desirable and comfortable place to hangout in terms of sitting down than where they put us. While I sat at this table behind me was the whole crew and they all gathered in to start singing the 90s rock that was playing from the overhead speakers. The manager Steve was spinning menus in the air at full speed, the waitresses singing every word loud as they can to an overplayed awful rock song, all the while back to Steve who is grabbing some silverware now and head banging his extremely long hair and playing air guitar to the two girls he's seating behind me grasping for a laugh... just wow... then more head banging, and back to playing air guitar with a menu again... Just anything and everything to make this experience so awful and uncomfortable for us he was doing. He didn't get us drinks or waters but sat three tables after us and got all of them drinks and waters while we watched him put on his Rock concert and sing every word of "This is how you remind me of who I really am"!! While we waited with nothing to drink watching Steve and the crew dance n sing away around us serving everyone but us... He Finally pointed our waitress Shauna to our table who was so professional and such a dear. The problem was Steve and how unprofessional the rest of the crew was being. They were singing at the top of their lungs, Steve was changing the words to already awful music n putting in his own lyrics "he doesn't wanna be here no more" instead of the lyrics in the song. Clearly hating every moment of the start to his shift my kids and I just looked around like this can't be happening, and if it is, why sit us right next to it all. Feeling trapped with the entire staff singing was one thing, but paying 80$ for THIS food we got was another. The burgers were dripping in grease so bad my son stained his shirt, the mozzarella sticks were so dark from dirty fryer grease that they were un edible, n my steak... it was all cheese and no meat at all with no seasoning. The tots were under cooked and gross because of the dirty fryer plus the bacon on the top of them wasn't even cooked it was just raw bacon bits. Burger King would've been 10x better for 1/4 the price. Do not go here. Steve, please stop sitting people right next to the workers if they are going to act like that. No one can enjoy themselves in that atmosphere; if you want to sing and headbang put your customers away from the comotion and in seats they can be more comfortable in.

    We were happy to see a Johnny Rockets when we walked through the mall. So on our following visit, we decided to prioritize a long overdue visit to Johnny Rockets. Rosa was our server and she seems to be holding the place together. She worked really hard and was incredibly pleasant. Meanwhile, we witnessed three other servers basically sit while she pretty much served the entire restaurant. She mentioned something to one of them, but they didn't seem to budge from their seats, instead they conversed the entire 30/45 minutes that we were there. We were pretty let down to say the least. Our burgers and fries were pretty average and lacked the overall taste that they once had. I had the veggie and my husband had the original. We ordered cheese fries. The cheese was too salty and had a sticky consistency (see photos). Our food arrived eerily fast and there were plenty of patrons around. Ironically, it was the same quality as fast food.

    AMAZING portions!

Walking through the restaurant was nice as the space was very large and the decor indoor was cozy and whimsical. Our server was nice throughout the meal. However, I did get a water glass that had marks on it that looked like someone just drank out of it and a crumb on the rim. I asked them if they could get me a clean cup and they ended up bringing the same one as the same mark and crumb were still there. For food, our table ordered a few items to share. We got: -CAULIFLOWER WINGS: The chutney/salsa on top of the fried cauliflower was nice and gave the item a little sour kick. However, the cauliflower itself was not cooked fully so not as soft as I wanted it to be. -SYRACUSE POUTINE: The appearance of the poutine was not the best. However, the gravy it came with was very flavorful and tasty. The potatoes themselves were not fried and were in wedge form but went well with the gravy. The small globs of melted cheese on top were a nice complement. -CAJUN SLIDERS: The slider compliments/sauce went well together but the sliders themselves had grill marks on it which gave a bitter bite to those parts of the slider. Additionally, the fried shrimp inside of the slider still had the tail on and so it was a bit of a surprise to bite into a full tail while eating a slider. All in all, a cute spot to see people but food had some hit or miss components.

I placed the order again and this time my dinner came without the cheesecake. I call back again and ask to speak to the manager and he tells me I have to email their HR department to get it all sorted out. He treated it like it was all a joke. I email them and they said I was Refunded for the first meal completely which I'm Still waiting for all these to process and that they're going to refund me for the second cheesecake. So I get hit with delivery fees and processing fees. I used to eat out here weekly but after this I'm sorry but I can't support someone who is going to mess my Order up twice I got hit with all these fees and there isn't anything they did to make the situation right and I've never had to email an HR department for a company I didn't work for. Also the second time I had to call the manager told me that I had to send an email about the missing desert and when I asked him to take care of it himself he couldn't comprehend the fact that I shouldn't have to contact them when they messed my order up twice it's disappointing that a place that I enjoyed eating at could care less that they made these mistakes.

My favorite dish was always gyros over rice with cut up pita and salad from the streetcarts. Fastforward to now. In Upstate NY it is hard to find Gyros or meat over rice as good as the city...until today. I took one bite and had flashbacks. The chicken is seasoned with a blend of the middle east and Mediterranean. The steak was coated with white sauce, garlic sauce, and hummus. And the salad was panopley of options. Even a little toasted pita to remind of the gyros. Very filling. I will get multiple meals out of this and I will be back to try more!

For drinks they have a good selection of beers on tap, usually 10-20, from local and national breweries. The server offered me a sample before I fully committed on a beer I had a question about and I appreciated being able to try it before committing to a full glass. The Evergreen's menu itself is accessed through a QR code where their full list of options and specials are listed. My group opted to share the beer fries and they were taaaasty, pillowy soft, crunchy, and amazingly well seasoned. The vegetarian options are a regular part of the restaurant and the fried tofu I had was genuinely satisfying and well done. My cajun pasta was maybe a touch over but I was okay with it since it had my condiment obsession of chili crisp in it. The menu is well marked for dietary needs. A great thing of note is that they have women's, men's, AND an all-gender bathroom. I appreciate the inclusion in the food and restaurant itself. Car parking is street parking, it's accessible via the Centro bus system, and there is an artistic broken-chain shaoed bike rack just across the street from the restaurant.

My partner and I chose to split the herb fries, burnt end chicharrones, and the brussels. I thought the herb fries were delightfully crisp with great flavor. The sweet & spicy smokey sauce that was provided with it was a bit tangy. I didn't like it at first, but it grew on me! You'll definitely have to taste it for yourself. The burnt end chicharrones left more to be desired. Both my partner and I thought they were dry and not tender. Also, there was something about the flavor that we did not care for. I absolutely love burnt ends from BBQ joints, and this was the first time we've ordered chicharrones so I don't have something to compare them to, but I'd suggest trying them elsewhere. As for the brussels, when we first got to the restaurant our friends were sharing them. We tried one bite and knew we had order a whole plate for ourselves! They were literally the best brussel sprouts we've ever had. The roasted garlic aioli and grana cheese were topped on perfectly cooked brussels which I would go back for. I highly suggest checking out The Evergreen, go through their beer menu, and find a new favorite plate.
