An Upscale Italian Steakhouse Experience

🧡After a long day of travel, I had high expectations for Johnny's Italian Steakhouse. As an upscale Italian steakhouse, 🍺 the ambiance and atmosphere are indeed elegant and appropriate, and the staff are friendly and attentive. The food was generally acceptable, though not without its flaws. 🍦For the appetizer, the fried shrimp was slightly greasy with a overly thick coating, resulting in a lack of crispiness and depth of seasoning. ✨ However, the main course—the steak—was a highlight. It was richly flavored and cooked to perfection, though the meat itself leaned toward the milder side. The side dishes were excellent and well-suited to my taste. 🧡Another standout was the four-cheese ravioli with shrimp. The ravioli filling was rich and creamy, the sauce was flavorful, and the shrimp were fresh and springy—a harmonious and highly recommended dish. 🍋Overall, Johnny's meets upscale standards in terms of ambiance and service, but the food quality can be inconsistent. #Steakhouse #DesMoines #UpscaleDining
