Johnny's is an italian restaurant in Schenectady, New York. It is listed at 433 State St, Schenectady, NY 12305, which places it among the local businesses of Schenectady that residents and visitors turn to when they need this kind of service close by.

Italian restaurants, sub shops, calzone counters and Italian delis sit next to the pizzerias on this site because most of them bake pizza too, often from the same dough. Full-service Italian restaurants take reservations for dinner, add a tip line for table service (15-20% is customary) and usually run a cheaper lunch menu on weekdays. Sub and sandwich shops are counter-order and quick, with sizes by the inch or in half and whole lengths. Calzones and strombolis are priced like a medium pizza and are large enough to share. Italian delis and bakeries sell by weight and by the piece, and many close mid-afternoon.

The business lists hours on 2 days of the week. Typical hours are 4–9 PM. As with most places, expect changes around holidays; the phone number below is the fastest way to confirm. The listed phone number is (518) 982-5657. Many businesses also reply to text messages on the same number if it is a cell phone. More information is available on its website, johnnysdowntown.com.

On Google it holds a rating of 4.5 out of 5 from 1,151 reviews, which is a strong result for an italian restaurant in Schenectady and suggests consistent service.

Schenectady is in New York, in the Northeast, where four distinct seasons shape local life: hot humid summers, snowy winters that can close businesses for a day, and a dense pattern of towns where walking, transit and street parking all matter. Getting around Schenectady is easiest by car; street parking is metered in busy downtown areas, and most suburban businesses have their own lot. Ride-share apps such as Uber and Lyft operate across New York's larger cities, and public transit varies from extensive to minimal.

Johnny’s in Schenectady is one of those rare restaurants where every detail is done exceptionally well, from the impeccable service to the perfectly crafted food and drinks. The staff is welcoming, attentive, and makes every visit feel like a special occasion. Every dish is delicious, and the cocktails are thoughtfully made and absolutely outstanding. Even when you’re completely full, the desserts are so incredible they make you wonder how you ever lived without them. This is the kind of place that keeps you coming back, and I can’t recommend it highly enough. PS - Dana is the most polite and attentive waitress ever. PPS - Caitlin is a wonderful server assistant

We had a wonderful experience at Johnny’s in Schenectady! The atmosphere is beautiful, warm, and invitingβ€”perfect for a nice night out. The food was absolutely delicious. We specifically enjoyed the Lobster Elena, which was mouthwatering, the sauce was divine! I finished my meal with the brownie special for dessert, which was the perfect sweet treat. The carrot cake hit the spot too!! The service was outstanding. Our server was friendly and efficient without being "too much." If you're looking for great food and a lovely vibe, I highly recommend stopping in!

Authentic Italian food, fresh bread, great wine, and excellent service. I had the Bolognese pasta and it was incredible. Bring an appetite, the portions are generous. Also, the atmosphere makes you want to come back.

My husband and I got seated right away despite no reservations at 6 on a busy Saturday night. All employees we encountered were friendly and professional. The ambiance is largely what you come here for; Fully immersive of an authentic Italian feel. I got the margarita with salt which was strong and tasted house made vs premade bottled marg mix. I had the lobster bisque, which was yummy and a great price comparing to other restaurants in the area. For my entree, I had the filet mignon with roasted potatoes and green beans and all was delicious. My husband had arancini and chopped salad with added shrimp. He thought the salad itself was kind of meh but the arancini and shrimp made up for it. Will absolutely return!
