Johnny's of Grants Pass
304 NE Agness Ave Grants Pass, OR  541-218-4420

About Us
Johnny's began as a couple of hot dog carts on the east coast, selling Italian Sausages and hot dogs on the street corners  downtown.  The work was easy enough and life was good.  We didn't have to pay rent but we got rained on a lot.  

We vacationed here in Grants Pass often and finally decided to move here.  One thing led to another and Johnny's the Restaurant was born.

 
We learned to make cheesesteaks by eating a ton of them.  Our favorite, and the best in the business, is Geno's in South Philly.  We ate so many of them, Joey Vento, the owner, sent us an autographed picture of himself.

Morning Cheesesteak Production

It's not difficult to make good cheesesteaks.  It's very difficult to make great cheesesteaks day in and day out.  We make GREAT cheesesteaks.  We start with quality beef.  Above are half pound portions of whole top sirloin sliced razor thin.  This is how you prepare to make great steaks.  Others get their beef in a box and they'll still have that box in the afternoon.  These steaks will be gone by noon.




The Steak Rolls.  You can't make a great steak using Franz, Williams or Orowheat rolls.  You have to go to the source.  We get our steak rolls from a 100 year old bakery in Philly, PA.  Amoroso's Baking Company, on South 55th Street in Philly.  Check them out, they're famous.







Casper's Hot Dogs
are probably the best franks on the West Coast.
They're a delicate, lightly flavored natural casing frank that absolutely snaps when you bite them. They're very similar to the Hoffy Dogs served at Pink's in Hollywood, but larger.  Shown at right are the Casper's Original style with sliced tomato, sliced onion, mustard and relish.  These are cooked to order, so call in your order if you don't want to wait.









Do you know the difference between a LiL' Duece Coupe and a Surfin' Safari when it comes to burgers?  Me neither.  So if you want a double bacon cheeseburger without onions and add pickle and jalapeno, just say it.  No cute names, no extra charges.



















Char-Grilled Salmon
We use wild caught, Pacific Northwest
Salmon for our Salmon Burgers.  This is
an excellent choice for lunch.
