This place is great for when you're in the mood for seafood without all the fuss of a fancy place. The food is amazing, I've been going since I was a kid with my parents. Now I go with my fiance. The food isnt that expensive, its really good. The decor reminds me of a public school cafeteria and if you're not a seafood lover but your group is they have fried chicken and burgers too...

I always take my fiance to Johnny Reef's on a Friday evening, especially during the summer. We always enjoy the lobster tails & crab legs they serve. Once in a while, we order the traditional hamburger or hotdog platter. It is excellent. The point is that when we order our food, we bring it outside and enjoy the nice view of the water. I recommend it to seafood lovers.
