  Since moving to the area we have become Jonny's regulars, especially for weekend breakfast! The prices are fantastic and the food is delicious! True, if you are looking for a five star upscale restaurant experience with and off the wall menu and a snooty wait staff you may be disappointed....but if you are looking to have a great meal with friendly staff at a hometown restaurant then you're in luck. They are amazing.
  
  As for some of the other reviews I've read just an FYI.....you do seat yourself, there's a sign right through the door that says so. Also I've NEVER waited long for someone to come and say hi and grab us drinks. They get quite busy at peak times but I've never had anything but prompt service with a friendly smile. It's really a great place. Try it if you haven't!

  Coal Oil Johnny's is one of those local joints with awesome food that you hear others talking about.
  
  We visited on a Sunday morning with a friend that had grown up in the area and told us we had to try the place. Glad we did.
  
  The dining area is small but I think they have additional seating upstairs. Inside it is sort of the local diner vibe. Game machine by the door, place mats covered with advertising from local businesses and a wait staff made up of a good portion of the owner's family... All wonderfully friendly and warm. It is NOT dirty or dingy in any way. The family clearly takes pride in the place.
  
  The food though... Wow! They have an all day breakfast menu as well as regular lunch and dinner selections. Being Sunday brunch we went with breakfast choices naturally.
  
  The potatoes are awesome. Cooked golden brown and perfect. Our eggs were all cooked correctly without exception. I had the corned beef hash with two eggs over medium. Holy smokes... The hash was amazing. Exactly as it should have been... Crusty grilled outside and full of flavor. Bread choices include homemade bread (toasted), Texas toast, and your regular wheat and white breads.
  
  Our experience was great! Food was delicious, staff was friendly, and the place is clean with a small town diner charm. If you are in the area, definitely a place to go.
