Darrell Friesen

The food was a 5 but decor is average and we mostly kept jackets on as it was coolish

Kevin J

Attention needs to be a little bit more attentive. They confused and mixed two orders of the same table. Steak well done mixed with medium. But food is delicious, and servings generous.

Ron Galuschuk

Amazing food. Great service

Alister Braun

Good food lots of selection and lots of chefs specials. Very talented

Jeff Nolan

Great food, great service.

Cam Hart

Probably the best menu in Swan River apart from Madoco, but kitchen is typically very slow. Today my wife and I waited through the entire lunch hour... they got an appetizer to our table within 15 minutes, but still no entrees by 12:50, and one was even ordered from the "express menu"! After another 5 minutes waiting by the till, they tried to get us to take the food in to-go bags. Uh... no thanks, and amazingly this is not the first time we've been shut-out by the kitchen! Locals already know, but this might be good for out-of-town visitors to be aware of: good food, but be prepared to spend a long time waiting for your meal – even during non-peak hours. Hopefully this restaurant is able to improve to where they place the same level of pride in their service as they seem to place on their menu.

Ana Terry

Great food and the staff are very friendly, I enjoy coming here with my family and friends.

Water King

Good food ,good drinks A+

Bev Lumax

Really enjoyed the Seafood chowder for lunch today....Delicious

Bruno

Friend recommended I to me saying it was one of the best restaurants in Swan River, and it really was a good place. A bit on the pricey side but real good food.

Redowan Jakir

Ordered steak sandwich, it came with fries and mushrooms and it was very delicious. The environment is cosy and the staffs are very friendly.

Nicholas Babyck

Service is good, food is meh

Gwen Wright

Inconsistent. I hope things improve with the new pizza oven. I have tried a variety of items and none of them are cheap. The dry ribs were better before the new seasoning.

Michelle Stephens

I had a steak sandwich with garden salad. The server was efficient and friendly. Stumbled on it as trucker who parked nearby. Good value awesome variety on the menu. Watched some other food items roll by and it looked amazing. I will come back again when in swan river.

Craig Fisher

Excellent baby back ribs. My wife and I split a full order. That was plenty. Service wise, excellent service. And price wise, we thought good value. We highly recommend.

Dannette kublick

Good food great service

CM Edmunds

Enjoyed a nice menu variety with some international flavours. There were vegetarian dishes as well. We had ratatouille served in a half eggplant. Also a warm beet salad served with feta, walnuts and toast. The raspberry cheesecake was something to write home about... it had pieces of raspberry cake held together with cheesecake.

Heather Korniichuk

Nice place, big meals, good food, good prices... Not the fastest... But they make up for it with everything else

Carolyn Bradshaw (PolythPam)

Tasty and quick! Interesting mix of items on the menu with North American classics and Indian dishes.

Henry Ens

Delicious Grilled Cheese Burger

Kristi Marie

Very tasty eats and a comfortable atmosphere! They have a nice variety of dishes to choose from, something for everyone. I had the beef dip last time and it was epic! The drink menu/selection was impressive as well.

Y Not Johnny's? Let me tell you why not..... After being seated we were never approached again and while we waited for 30 minutes before leaving, I watched as wait staff would pop in the dinning area like lost deer only to turn around to hide out by the bar... I mean, I wouldn't have minded the wait if I had a drink, but they ignored us and 3 other tables. Funny enough we met one of the other tables at the Pizza place, much better service there.

Amber Martin

Great service and delicious food. Found my new favourite wing place.

Jessica Bergen

An excellent restaurant! Johnny and his team work so hard to provide new and exciting dishes, with a regular menu along with a monthly specials menu which features many locally sourced items and seasonal vegetables. An inviting atmosphere great for the whole family - young and old alike!

Norman Mayer

Food and service were both excellent.

Enjoyed our evening dinner and although we didn't have any reservations we were found a table within a few minutes. The menu has something to satisfy young and elderly diners. Highly recommend this restaurant! We will definitely be back.☺

MrNighthawkcharlie

Noticed a change here! Not the same service anymore. Took a very long time for the food to arrive. Pretty good food though! Just didn't have cutlery and condiments for a long time.

Tara Taylor (sweetboomer)

Even though the restaurant was empty their service was 5star and food was just amazing. Got myself some Chicken Enchiladas should definitely try if you like Mexican food! Will be visiting again!

Sherry Johnston

Wendy for lunch on the patio. Very fast and nice service. Food was just ok. The kapow shrimp were pretty good but the fish tacos and sushi were not great. Nice patio

Phil Weedon

Outstanding! What a menu!

Lyndon Vrooman

Was passing through yesterday and we needed a place to eat. We try to only eat local when we're travelling, and this made our short list. Wasnt too sure after reading some reviews, but decided to try anyways. Definitely wasn't disappointed. Staff were alright, food was amazing, and much quicker than we had been led to expect. Pictured is the golden ring burger

Lorna T

Today I had the Baked Shrimp Scampi from the Chef's Features Menu, was delicious, with great atmosphere and service. A very enjoyable evening dinner.

Greg Anaka

Best food in town

Warren Genik

Johnny always has a fun and interesting menu, great atmosphere, and excellent staff!

Brad “Babel” A

Almost drove my snowmobile right by this Lil ' hidden gem. Glad that Google suggested this place, service was friendly and the food was excellent.

Robert Robertson

Service and food are almost always great. Unfortunately speed of food coming out of the kitchen can leave alot to be desired. Thought this was a one time thing, but after 4 attempts it still hasn't gotten any better. 45 minutes for a burger, fries and wings is un acceptable. Also one of only 2 places in town that serves nachos, but after this new menu change they are no longer available. Yet another reason to go else where for us. Great place if you have a couple of hours to kill, but we've got things to do.

John Pasternak

Great food and service

Wayne Macmillan

Service was fast and friendly clean food was very tasty

Robert Bassett

Great food! Slow, but worth it

Rachel Cooper

Service has been exceptionally slow and disorganized lately. It took 40 minutes for us to get drinks and order what we wanted. By the time the food actually reached our table we had been waiting for an hour and a half, we ordered just appetizers. Our server was very disorganized and had to come by to re-check what we ordered on numerous occasions. There were items that we ordered that didn't end up coming out even though we had asked about them several times, we ended up saying we didn't want them, but were almost charged for them at the end of the meal. Not to mention the appetizers were over cooked and hard. More training should be offered to servers and cooks as it seems the waiter didn't really know what she's doing as with the cooks. I blame the owners for this because it is their responsibility to make sure everything is running smoothly.

Stephan Harris

The name made me assume itd be pretty average. But it was in fact above average! Well played johnny.

Kieran Kilgour

This summer I work and traveled across most of Saskatchewan and Manitoba, staying for a week or two in every decently sized city. Myself, and the crew I worked with, thought Y Not Johnny's had some of the best restaurant food we ate throughout the entire summer. Highly recommend.

Richard Hurd

Good food. Service either hot or cold.

Vlad Matejka

Always good food and they switch things up regularly.

Brenda Miller-Adams

Y NOT Johnny's catered an anniversary party in their restaurant last week. Due to distance of people in our party, all correspondence was done via email and text. They were responsive when we contacted them, efficient in providing us menu options and delivered a wonderfilul meal at the quoted price. The selving staff was attentive but not invasive. We appreciated that they allowed us to linger after dinner in their meeting room without hurrying us out. We highly recommend this restaurant for your next group event!

Jason Loewen

Food good service slow

Rick Benson

Great food and reasonable pricing. Friendly staff.

After a brief but pithy exchange of information regarding local eating establishments with the concierge at the Super 8 Hotel we decided upon Y Not Johnny's as the eatery for our evening repast. There were two tables of patrons as we entered and waited to be seated. We chanced upon a waiter/manager/owner carrying dirty dinner plates to the rear of the restaurant and inquired about obtaining a table and perusing a menu for our aforementioned repast. The man seemed out of sorts and informed us that due to a lack of customers as of late business was suffering and he must close extra early (we arrived before 8 pm), so he turned us away as customers.... I can only assume that his business model is of similar construct to the one I used myself during kindergarten playtime when I myself was a budding imaginary restaurateur. Y not Johnny's? Alas, I believe that perhaps a better query/name would indeed be "Y Johnny's?" So, without question, we took our leave to further explore alternative culinary options in this quaint hamlet of Swan River and eventually found our way to a lovely establishment with adornments and savoury aromas reminiscent of Old Rome and the Italian peninsula by the name of The Pizza Place. I will relay this tale ,good reader, but one must venture on to my review of The Pizza Place in order to unfurl the specifics of this next and final account in our culinary expedition... Arrivaderci...

jinz manito

Great tasting menu! We had the pairing cocktail too. Not inexpensive, but the quality and innovation were really good. Johnny's is my best restaurant in swan..

Don F

Every time I go there....there is something new and delicious on the menu!

Mike Patterson

Ordered from BC for delivery to my mom in swan River and they were incredibly helpful including lining up flowers,delivery and pick up. Thanks for going beyond to help us celebrate our mother on Mother's Day. You rock

cliff anstey

Great food and great prices. A fresh made bacon cheese burger and fries for 12 bucks. Wow was it good and hot.

Julie Meadus

Great food, great service.

Joseph Westburne

Impressive place considering its a little off the beaten path. I've been there a few times for pasta, always good and seems to be made from scratch. Cute servers too!

Bill Gade

Great service and a friendly atmosphere await you at Y Not Johnny's. On my visit I was personally entertained by Johnny himself. It's worth the trip.

Tolu Adigun

The food is nice!

mart lei

It was ok. The food was delicious but my order was served after everyone at my table was 3/4 done and when my Asian plate came they served me potatoes instead of cauliflower and when I approached the waitress and she didnt respond to me.. she just said ok

Chalice

Always the best!

priya atwal

We tried samosa and vegan beyond burger it was very good

North Wind

Menu 'we serve breakfast!'. 'Hi, are you serving breakfast right now'? 'Uhh I dont think we ever serve breakfast'. Menu 'Comes with soup, salad or fries' 'Whats the soup today?' 'We don't have soup today' Written on door 'free wifi'. 'Whats the wifi password?' 'I don't know' Waitress was pleasant, no fault to her. Water had no ice, although they had ice. After giving up on water ordered pepsi and specified ice, pepsi was flat. Food was surprisingly decent, so got that down anyways. Dont offer things on your menu if you don't do them. 3 stars country wide, but for manitoba this is michelin star.

Tweena Barkhouse
