Johnny's Hideaway — Restaurant in Atlanta

They deserve zero stars. IF YOU DONT LIKE TO BE ASSAULTED OR LIKE WATCHING ILLICIT ACTIVITY THIS IS NOT THE PLACE FOR YOU. I was assaulted by a man and two of his friends with unwanted physical connect and overall taunting and bullying which they took turns doing when the first one was rejected (whose force that was used was immense and shocked me when first accosted by him). I told security to no avail because not only did he not review the video cameras they allegedly had (perhaps because he didn’t want to reveal the other illicit activity going on such as prices being exchange for flesh or girls who were trying to lure men to other establishments such as other adult entertainment clubs which I personally over heard) NOT ONLY THAT BUT when I pointed out the men to him he didn’t even give them a warning (perhaps they are friends of his or pimps who he knows recruits in that club). I had to let them batter me a second time and ask for a manager allegedly named Alex they don’t wear name tags or anything to identity them ( I wonder why). I told the manager that I had previous told his security allegedly named Alex as well (what are the chances of that) he said he didn’t like my attitude because I complained twice about the battery in and effort to deflect from why it was not handled the first time because battery although against the law doesn’t carry much weight in this establishment. Finally the manager “Alex” told security guy “Alex” to go warn the dudes but he specifically stated he didn’t want me present to hear even though I was the one battered and needed to point them out. I left because I knew I would not be protected even though I took all the proper steps in their establishment to try and seek help (btw because I did not want to encounter these guys which you would think they would appreciate considering they didn’t want me there while they “talked to them” I asked them to please get my credit card so I didn’t have to deal with them they refused making me have to go back in their presence so keeping us a part to ensure safety was not their goal just didn’t want me to hear the discussion if any was had). BTW I have photos of the ppl who were involved so please don’t get cute with your videos that allegedly aren’t working or been recorded over and show clips of your employees that you think paints them in a good light show the entire encounter or nothing at all because it only proves my point about your establishment. The only thing after I had been assaulted that they could do was to talk about my attitude because I dare to complain a second time because NOTHING was done the first time because in their eyes you don’t have to start or ask for trouble but your still the problem and you better have a smiley face after an assault and heaven forbid one complains. LADIES and GENTLEMEN IF YOU LIKE A UNSAVORY ATMOSPHERE WHERE BATTERY IS JUST BUSINESS GO HERE OR IF SOMEONE ASSAULTS YOU SKIP THEM go STRAIGHT TO THE POLICE DONT MAKE THEM AWARE SO THEY CAN TALK DOWN TO YOU OR GET RID OF EVIDENCE (my mistake for going to better establishments expecting them to be the same). THIS IS NOT THE PLACE TO UNWIND WITH A DRINK AND LISTEN TO MUSIC UNLESS YOU LIKE ANTISOCIAL BEHAVIOR AND A SIDE OF BATTERY WITH YOUR WINGS....

took my grandmother here for her 83rd birthday! We've been talking about going here for years and finally made it out. They drove all the way from Augusta for a fun night.

I called and made reservations a week in advance and was so happy how easy it was and they seemed to be really accommodating, only to be put all the way in the corner right by the kitchen so we had to deal with servers and bus boys walking past us and asking us to move out the way all night.

Not only that but my 83 year old grand mother with mobility issues was forced to sit in a high top because as we were a party of 6 and thats the only tables that can accommodate 6. I asked if we could just split into two tables next to each other since those tables have 4 seats. I didnt even ask for them to put tables together. I even offered to stand i just wanted my grandma to have a comfortable table. I was told no flat out. That they cant move the tables together, and no we cant split into two. At this point in the night the tables were all still mostly empty. And the rules of the establishment are - reservations are only up until 8:30...so why at 8:45 am i being told that these tables are reserved and they cant accommodate us?. I told the staff as soon as we got there at 8:30 that its uncomfortable for her and it would be hard for her to enjoy herself and getting in and out of the chair was a struggle.

If we were more in the center of the club in the lower chairs she couldve enjoyed the people watching and gotten up to dance more. We still had an amazing time because we are fun positive people but it really put a negative taste in my mouth.

Now the real kicker is about 11pm when the club was already packed a group of exactly 6 young men celebrating a bachelor party were sat right next to us and two tables were moved together for them . It was just so funny how way late in the night when it was so packed that the line wrapped around the building exactly 6 guys arrived & they were placed right next to us in the more comfortable lower chairs and tables were moved for them. They could've been put in our table and we should've been put there.

I already called and spoke to the manager about it but I never got a real valid reason that made sense as to why we were treated like this and i was just told I should've let her know when the reservation was made abt her mobility issues. Most older people have problems with sitting in high chairs. I didnt know it was a high top. And thats fine but I did let them know as soon as we got there when the club was empty enough to accommodate us.

I won't even mention the specific other hygienic issues that I saw because we probably would still come back and i dont want to completely turn people off from coming here - I wouldn't necessarily recommend ordering food here though Ill...

Update- I contacted the email as requested and the management never contacted me. As stated, they don't care about how customers are being disrespected by staff...

I am in my 50s and have been going to Johnny’s with big groups of friends once or twice a year for 15 years. Last night’s visit was definitely the last. A friend of mine was having a party and had three tables full of people. I came separately with a separate group of 10 friends who didn’t know that group at all. Coincidentally, there were two available tables next to her group and the host told us we could sit there as long as we all go on one Check and Only bought drinks from the waitress. I understand this policy and have abided by it in the past. Then One of the staff members said that since we knew somebody in the other group, we had to be on the Bill with 20 people we did not know. After a lot of back-and-forth, he agreed to let our group occupy the other two tables as long as it was not more People than there were seats so it would not be too crowded for the staff. We also understood and agreed to that. The Manager above him came over and started yelling at our group saying this is not how it’s done and then singled out one of his guests saying that he “always does this”, loudly Yelled at him in front of the entire room of customers and threatened to ban him from Johnny’s. He was literally just standing at a table and had not been to Johnny’s in a year. He is also 60 years old. I guess there may have been some confusion one other time in the past, but that’s it. Either way, Yelling and trying to humiliate a guest would never be acceptable in any establishment. None of this group of about 50 people will ever support this institution again, not to mention that it is no longer in a safe part of town, there is a lot of crime, and there is an underbelly of Drugs and predators all around the dance floor and bar. It’s creepy and unsettling. Two of my friends in their 50s gotten groped inappropriately by strangers on the way to the bathroom. They must have a new DJ also because the last two times I was there the playlist was not fun like it used to be. Two girls last night told me that they are hearing more and more stories about women getting roofied there as well. Time for people who enjoy good clean fun, safety, a great playlist with appreciative respectful management to find someplace else to go! You will find none of this at Johnny’s...
