Best American Restaurants in Northampton

We have been take-out and dine-in customers here for many years, essentially since they first opened, and have dined at most of the major restaurants in the Amherst-Northampton area. In terms of the quality of food, service, ambience, consistency, etc., we think Johnny's is the best restaurant in this area.

Always a pleasure to dine at Max's Tavern. We went for happy hour, and the bar area was full. The hosted suggested we go to the new space, Max's swing lounge. It was a great space, and excellent, friendly service from Allison and Steven.

The food was delicious. The tenderloin and the scallops were wonderful. The beet salad was also a winner. Hannah was a very capable server and the entire evening was perfect.

Fantastic evening celebrating XMAS with our daughter and her roommate from MHC! The staff could not have been more gracious in allowing us to decorate our mini Christmas tree on the table while waiting for the delicious food. Thank you Johnny’s for a wonderful and memorable evening at our daughter’s home away from home!

A Christmas experience you must do every year! The decorations, carolers and of course, delicious food 🎄
