We don’t have Johnny Carino’s in MN and wanted to try a place where seems to be only in the Dakotas (went to one in SD a few years back). We loved it there so we knew it would be the same here. And we were not wrong! Husband and I split their Italian combos (pick 2 smaller portions) and there was enough food. But if you’re really hungry, maybe get something that’s more a full-size meal. We got the jalapeño tortellini and their handmade lasagna. Both were delicious! The tiramisu for dinner was a huge slice! It was amazing melt-in-your-mouth goodness. My husband ordered decaf coffee to enjoy the tiramisu with and our server Steve didn’t hesitate to make a fresh pot even if we only wanted a cup. Superb customer service. He was very attentive and pleasant too. The place is good for date nights, small and big family dinners, or a friends night out. Overall, a great dining experience.

This is the place to dine on Monday night. Exceptional value, family platters half price, a family can dine for less than $20!!! We had the spicy chicken romano, it is tantalizing! Artichokes, mushrooms, sundried tomatoes, chicken with bow tie pasta. Autumn was a fantastic server, very attentive she even had a table of ten, very impressive! Great food, great service at a unheard of price! The patio is awesome. Jennee T has added some water fountains which is so serene. The Italian nachos are a favorite of ours. Yummy!

Wow, what a fantastic meal! We stopped for dinner on our way through Bismarck. We had Harmony as our server and she was absolutely fantastic. Really a friendly person. Due to covid they were not serving Skilatinies but Harmony suggested the chicken and shrimp pasta. I now have a new favorite. Highly recommend this place. 10/3/2020

On Thursday I enjoyed a very nice lunch out with my daughter and a close friend. We arrived at 11:30am and there was no waiting. All the wait staff had a facemask on and seated us with a table in between so weren’t directly next to anyone. The service was great, thank you Blaine, and our food was hot and delicious. Highly recommend for lunch and dinner too.

Amazing Food and Service! Had the Lemon Rosemary chicken plus a small Johnny Cariños special pizza. It was half off for the family platter on Mondays so the food was amazing quality for a great price. One of the best pizzas I’ve had and I was a little disappointed that I didn’t get a large one. The atmosphere inside is great. I would highly recommend. There wasn’t one bite that I was disappointed with.

This is the first time I have ever been here. I always here how great the food is here. The mushrooms were perfectly cool and so creamy. The calamari was made just right. And the bread with the oil and garlic was good but for me tastes better with balsamic vinegar that the waitress was more than willing to give me. The only thing that was ok was the lasagna. It was a good portion but it was too salty for me. I know… its lasagna but I have had lasagna not as salty. But everything else was delicious. Our server was awesome. We never had to wave her down because she checked on us regularly. And she told us about the menu and the soups of the day. I wish I remembered her name!!! Thank you amazing server!

Ordered delivery from doordash the other night for my family and I. Received all of our food and then. . .well, whatever is in the photo. It seriously looks like a half head of lettuce with leftovers that someone ate the majority of. Never touched it besides to take the photo. Sort of makes us question doordash and carinos at the same time.

Years ago Johnny’s was one of our date night restaurants. We decided to try the one in Bismarck for old times sake. The food was mostly okay but not as good as we remembered.

We went there today and sat in the bar area. Our sever was Jen. She was amazing even though she was so busy. She never failed to keep my husband’s coffee cup full! I can’t say enough nice things about our experience today. Our food was good, tasty and hot too.
