Top 13 Affordable Restaurants in Johnstown, NY

Josh Rarick I moved to Johnstown about 2 years ago. We were recommended Vinces from our new neighbors. Our first meal in the new house was a floor picnic with a large cheese pizza. We have now taken advantage of the Facebook specials for superbowl, I stop by for lunch frequently, and every member of our family thats visited our house has had either pizza or some of the amazing meals that they make too. It worth it to stop in for slices because like a mad scientist creation, new flavors are always available. I love the Mac n Cheese slices, and the bourbon chicken slice the best but they have so many combos I cant list them all. My daughter even had her first ever pizza from here. Vinces is a must stop by if your in the area. Hell, Id say its worth the drive from Amsterdam.

Howard Pierce Decent place, small with big bang on flavor and variety. Had rice noodles with several meats and veggies. Good amount and mix of vegetables and meat.

Chad Hartwig Love this spot! Everything is always so good and fresh. The service is awesome. The corned beef hash is the best within 100 miles.

Guy Leo I have eaten Mexican food throughout the US. I have always eaten at places run by authentic Mexican cooks. I look at cost, taste, presentation and portion size. Depending on where you are in the US usually guides the spice levels. If your near Mexico it’s hotter and if your in Maine it’s not as hot. At least that’s been my experience. Juan is a very nice guy with very little personality on the front end. However, you can tell he cares but suffers from language issues. The food here is authentic and the flavors are not to strong and not to weak. I have eaten here several times and always left not being hungry and happy. I’ve eaten all over the Capital district and had a little better here and there but paid way way more. For what this place charges and what you get here in little ole Johnstown, this is one heck of a place. I have included some pictures and just tell Juan, “some guy sent you” Give this place a try it’s really good. Update-we went for cinco de Mayo on May 5th 2022. We had a blast with some great beers and the restaurant filled up with people at every table. We ate dinner and it was really good as usual. We got to know the owner better and he is a really nice guy. His whole family has restaurants throughout the U.S. we will include some more pictures with this post. It’s July 25, 2022 and we just had diner. I had 3 chicken and 3 beef empeñadas and they melted in my mouth with a deep flavor of deliciousness. Additionally, I had a beef taco in the shell and soft. Both were very scrumptious. Lastly, I had one chili Rellenos. It was blacked and the cheese and spice were just right. I cut little pieces off and ate them on top of my empanada bites. I don’t eat here all the time but when I do I always leave happy and full. Nice to have something different in our area. Go! Go! Go! tell them “some guy sent you.”

Paul Komarek Simple and honest cafe with some fun and surprising menu options. I tried their waffle for breakfast and it was perfect, fluffy and tender (not overloaded and chewy, unlike other waffles Ive had in this area). O has their tubs melt fort lunch and it was simple but well-executed. If I were in the area longer Id try their African Peanut Soup and a couple other specials, not to mention their cakes and pies.

Alek Fiorenza I love this restaurant it’s very Family style service People are very welcoming and very nice and pleasant Serve family style breakfast I love it and enjoy it so much I got to meet the kitchen people and see the kitchen and all the equipment and saw the dishwasher doing dishes love it very family feeling here and make me feel happy

Garlic Buns Bree and I had the pleasure of sharing dinner with my lovely niece Jessica Mazur and her two delightful children at the local Applebees tonight. This milestone marked the first time my niece and I have had a chance to connect over a meal, and Im eager to create many more memories like this in the future. Im grateful for all of you! A shout out to our terrific waitress Kayla S from all of us @ table 23! #familytime, #Applebee, #friends

Carol Freeman Great food, great service--cant wait to return! Twelve of us gathered from far and wide for Thanksgiving dinner. This was the first time we had ever had Thanksgiving dinner in a restaurant. The food was delicious (better than my cooking!). And, the corn fritters were FANTASTIC--just as I remember them from years ago. Thank you for making this a memorable and special Thanksgiving celebration!

Ashleigh Foster Delicious buffalo chicken pizza , drinks were very cold too , everyone was friendly too

M Gdd The pizza was FANTASTIC! I was in a pizza cinch at 9pm on a Saturday night. I ordered a large half cheese half pepperoni, peppers, onions. While I was picking it up at 9:15pm I ordered a cannoli and that was top notch as well. I ate that in my car on the way home. I recommend this place and I will definitely order again.

Marie Bartlett Traveling through town and wanted to eat some Popeyes for dinner. Excellent choice by far. The food was made to order and the customer service was amazing. Hands down the best Popeyes Ive been to in years. Thank you Alani and to your team.

Annie Kayla took good care of us, she seemed to still be getting the hang of everything but was very nice and got us everything we needed. All the food came out very hot and fresh which was nice. The sundae someone in our party ordered came out exactly as requested which isnt always the case so we were grateful.
