Chicken sandwich
Franklin F.

Decent BBQ establishment. BBQ, chicken, and ribs were all a bit dry. Chicken and ribs were both overcooked. The selection of BBQ sauce was just ok, not much variety offered. Coleslaw, baked beans and fries were all pretty good. Portions are a good amount for the price. Sweet tea was not very sweet at all and tasted like half & half tea. The sandwich bun on the side is a waste and should only be offered if wanted as it's not really a side bread. Hushpuppies would be a good add to the menu.

Evidence if my first visit there.

But one thing I fail to mention is the freaking AWESOME service I received. They dont know me from Adam and treated me as if I was a best friend. Most places give good service due to poor food quality. I was preparing myself for the worst. I was too deep in traffic to go back. Now I am sitting at home wanting more wings, craving those wings, mad cause I am out of wings. What am I to do now. see if I go back they will recognize me and I'll look greedy. Help Yelp!!!! What do I do?

Came here while I was in the area on lunch break with a co-worker who was looking for bbq and yelp led us to Johnny's. It's a small little place that was packed around 1pm on a weekday. Add the nice smell of smoke and I was starting to get my hopes up! They had a lunch special going on, which comes with a pulled pork sandwich, a side of fries and a drink for $7.71, and that's what I got. In addition, I got a 4 oz cup of Brunswick stew, for $1.35 They were generous with the pulled (more like chopped) pork, because as you bite into it, meat falls out of the sides of the sandwich. The meat itself didn't have much in the way of flavor, and they seemed to rely on their sauces to be their flavor saver, which if you like them, are great. To me, the sauce was nothing special, and so the sandwich was simply okay. They have a yellow bottle on the table, which is your sweeter bbq sauce, and then at the condiment station they have more vinegar based sauces if that's you're type of bbq. The french fries, which are crinkle cut, were seasoned with salt, and were also simply okay to me, a little on the hard side, and I didn't finish them. I'm a pretty harsh critic of Brunswick stew, because I love it so much, but what I tried really wasn't good at all. At least not to me. I did try to save it with a mix of sauces but at the end, I only had a couple of spoonfuls and that was enough for me. Service was lightning fast, so fast that you just about get your order as you pay, and customer service was nice. There are both booths and tables enough to seat about 30 people or so comfortably. Parking was not a problem, as this is a private lot, and since Cleveland Hwy is not a busy road, getting in and out isn't a big deal. I was going to give Johnny's BBQ at least 3 stars, because prices were cheap and service was friendly, but while that's true, the only thing I finished is the sandwich. I know bbq is pretty subjective for what's good, and I get that, but for my experience, i've definitely had better.

Fair barbecue. Not a big fan of chopped BBQ, but it was ok. Good local place. Just wish they had more selections of meat.

William was our server, and he did a great job taking care of us. The three of them ordered pulled pork sandwiches. I ordered the fried oyster plate with mac and cheese and collard greens. I'm picky about my mac & cheese, and asked William how theirs was. He said, "It's made with real cheese," not velveeta. It was just like homemade. The greens were also good, seasoned with some pork and bacon. And the oysters were nice too, with a light crispy coating and a sauce made in house. The pulled pork sandwiches were good too. Very clean, well-lit restaurant in the downtown area. I look forward to returning on future visits to see Dad!

I worked with management to plan my 80th birthday party there with 30 guests on Sat., 7/25. I made…read morethree trips there to work out the details, including a visit one week prior (7/18) to confirm. The bartender, Kayla, assured us all would be handled. Fortunately for us, a friend went by the Green Street location on 7/24 and let us know it was CLOSED! We were able to plan another party at nearby Recess, but are still are very disappointed with NGB management for not notifying us of the pending closure. If our friend hadn't alerted us, imagine the anger of 30 hungry party guests. Shame on you, North Georgia BBQ! What a shameful way to do business.

Walk up, tell them what you want, they carve & weigh in front of you & get your side orders as well. Go around the corner for your condiments, then pay & enjoy! Small building, easy access in/out of a small parking lot. Make sure you don't leave anything behind- we left the fried okra :(! Some beers & seltzers available as well. Took a total of 15 minutes at 5:30 pm on Friday night... they have a system & it works. Clean inside for dining in. Food- YES!!!!! Sooooo tender, soooo flavorful & the smoke was truly memorable! Meat by the lb... 2 lbs of meat we were given 2 TX toast & 4 buns (either or per pound). They have a variety of meal options like baskets, plates, etc. This is going to be a go to from now on. Great prices, nice folks, and literally the best Q in Hall county! My pictures are of my LEFTOVER brisket & pulled pork sandwich.... unreal the flavor! That is all!!!
