    We enjoyed an evening at Johnny's. Had the caprese salad, veal parmigiana, the filet au poivre and a slice of carrot cake to go. The food was delicious. When we arrived at Johnny's, we did the valet. Cost was $10 and we tipped $10. At the conclusion of dinner we retrieved our car through the valet. This is where the evening went amiss, which is unfortunate. The valet pressed us about tipping (same guy we gave $10 to, but he had no recollection) and our vehicle reeked of marijuana all the way home. Disappointing end to an otherwise lovely night. Update: Spoke with Leah from Johnny's today and she was extremely apologetic and embarrassed about our valet experience. In our discussion, we learned that valet is complimentary at Johnny's. Leah took action to ensure that this would not happen to future customers. It is clear that Leah and her family truly care about their customers experiences and I am appreciative of the outreach.
