A thought it was a little over priced, but the food and tropical mojitos were fabulous. More

I am not a fan of Costa Rican cuisine, so this was a nice break from the ubiquitous arroz con pollo, etc. It was actually very tasty and the prices were very reasonable. The Argentinian malbec by the glass was an excellent value. As a New York City foodie, I'm not easily impressed, but all the food we ordered was... More

You only should go here for the pizzas, although the rest of the menu did look good. Plenty of space downstairs, good service, reasonable prices. More

There are many wonderful reviews of this restaurant already and I agree with all of them. So, I'll just add two things. One:seated by the window we had our first sighting of the blue crested mot-mot. Secondly, the staff all seem to speak excellent English and they are charming, patient and helpful if you want to practise your Spanish with... More

The top of the restaurant is Tapas, and the pizza is on the bottom level. Pizza is not the only item on the menu, but it is what Johnny's is know for. You can have 1/2 one kind and 1/2 another if you can't decide. Ours was excellent. Our friends were also happy with their choice. The server spoke English... More

Stopped by in mid-March with my wife. We broke away from a group of people we were traveling with. They went elsewhere and we went here. Had a wonderful pizza in a very nice part of the restaurant next to a window with lush vegetation outside. Decor inside was wonderful. We were staying at the El Establo Mountain resort down... More

When you think of a "Johnny's Pizzeria" in the US, you certainly aren't expecting white tablecloths and a glowing lighting concept but that's what you can expect at Pizzeria de Johnny in Santa Elena! The atmosphere is truly beautiful, and we were very pleased with our personal pizzas. They have many unique options on the menu, but we can verify... More
