“ I was recently in Hearst with the Beavertail trailer and was pleasantly surprised by the welcoming we received from the staff at John's. The food is beyond compare, the pizza is second to none and don't ever leave that place without having the souvlaki. Did I mention the homemade burger buns? Absolutely fantastic food! We truly felt at home. The staff treated us all and everyone who goes there better than family. I can't say enough about how great this place is. Thank you so much for an amazing dining experience. ”
“ Fantastic pork souvlaki. Best I've had in years. I only wish it came with some tzatziki instead of having to lay extra for it. Menu should be update to say that it comes with French fries and not "potatoes" as that usually means mashed or roasted. I would definitely go back. ”
“ Came in from a long drive and had a fantastic meal. They even gave us a complimentary slice of carrot cake. The combination souvlaki was amazing. HUGE portions. Delicious!!! ”
“ I've heard a lot of good things about this restaurant.. and read all the great reviews so on a recent visit to Hearst I decided I had to try the pizza. Phone order was very smooth, friendly service.. they didn't have any specials on pizza but their large is bigger than the other guys, so ordered a large Canadian with extra cheese. Picked up my order on time, and right away as I was taking my pizza to the hotel I could tell it would be good, based on the heavy box and incredible smell of real, freshly cooked bacon. Pizza was fantastic, lots of cheese, fresh cooked bacon which I don't believe I've ever had before.. fresh and hot. The price is a little higher, but at John's you get what you pay for. Highly recommended! ”
“ Good food and friendly owners. The food portions are good for sharing. ”
