Johnny's Half Shell - Adams Morgan

Everything on the menu rates praise. The service is very good and the space is warm and inviting.

This was our first visit and we definitely plan to return. I didn't realize the night after Valentine's Day they would still be serving a fixed menu, but it was reasonably priced and the options were good. I would say my ribeye was tasty but not a great cut lots of fat (not the marbling kind) that had to be trimmed and discarded. My wife had the lobster which was decent but, you know, those are frozen, not alive moments before being served. We brought our desserts home because there was too much food; the bread pudding didn't fare well a day later although my lemon pie held up well and was enjoyable. Our waitress was great, and the people sitting next to us were fortunately nice since our tables were basically touching. It was basically designed for four with one upholstered bench and two chairs on the other side, but then the two tables moved apart. No matter, it worked out well and I'm sure if we wanted more privacy they could have seated use elsewhere. So, in all it was fun and we'd return for the atmosphere. Maybe we'll fare better on the food next time, I'd have to assume their fish dishes would be fresh and well prepared. We'll see!

Our local go-to. Great food, wonderful, friendly waitstaff, reliably delicious!

This place is so overpriced and the food is nothing special. I can’t believe it’s surviving in this neighborhood. We were the only people under on the night we went so that my be why.

Great service, ice cold beer, wonderful food, very fresh and tasty food, great atmosphere!
