We had the stuffed mushroom starter and the sauce was absolutely delish. The main dish, Chicken Parm, was well flavored and cooked perfectly. Our waiter, Christina, checked in on us regularly. She was friendly, helpful and gave great service. Johnny Carino’s has a warm, cozy atmosphere and the music adds to this.

The restaurant is well situated in Laredo. I had a specialty sandwich and it was pretty small considering that it cost over 12 bucks. The portions are small, and most of the food is salty or over seasoned. If you want to betray your heart this is the place. The service I received from Jessica was top notch, that’s why I give this place 3 stars.

It’s always usually a great time. Food is good and prices and specials are very good. Today( Sunday the 10th of April) about 2-4pm, wasn’t totally busy but bar area was just a tad slow as far as the attentiveness. There were literally 5-6 people. Drinks were a little weak but still decent. Their extensive menu has something for anyone and not only limited to “Italian” .

Cool spot with awesome happy hour deals! 25 cent wings and $2 beers! This place is a favorite amongst the locals with the occasional travelers. The bar is the place to sit. People are very friendly and you strike a conversation with the people sitting around you. They also carry tons of beer selections on draft and bottle. I found one of my favorite beers Purple Haze here. Such a fun and lively place. Service is a bit slow but it’s because they are so busy! I will definitely be back next time visiting Laredo.

Overall, the experience with the food and service merits 2 1/2 – 3 stars, but the lack of social distancing created an unsafe environment for dining and brought down this review to 1 star. I will be staying away for a while.

Detailed review

Usually, this place gets 4 stars from me, but recently we went for lunch and were disappointed. Several things made my most recent visit give it a 1 star rating.

We went on a Tuesday for their 2 for 1 lunch special. There were 4 tables seated when we arrived (excluding bar area), the place was essentially empty.

Host – tried sitting us in a booth that didn’t follow social distancing protocols. Occupied tables need to be 6-10 feet apart of each other. This needs to be done since people are removing their mask to eat and can unknowingly spread Covid further. These booths were occupied back-to-back. We asked to be moved to a safer table and were able too since it was essentially empty.

Waitress – her personality and attitude were great, but she would take a long time to check on us and to deliver our food. Weird since it is slow and pretty much empty.

Food – I ordered a pronto pasta with a potato soup. The soup was luke warm, stale, and very watery. Pretty disappointing since this soup is usually creamy and delicious. Pronto pasta was a Chicken Scaloppini. Pasta itself was average, but the chicken was cooked perfect. Overall, the plate was ok…but not it’s usually great flavor.

Host continued to sit people in back-to-back booths even though the restaurant was essentially empty. This is discomfiting considering that we are currently experiencing high numbers of Corona cases. We try to support local businesses during these difficult times, but won’t go back at the moment because I don’t feel that proper precautions are being taken to help curb the spread of Corona.
