⭐☆☆☆☆ After initially leaving a "not so great" review based on my experience with some of the staff, I was contacted by the owner. He was extremely remorseful for the situation at hand, and dealt with it in a timely and professional manner. He went above and beyond to correct the situation at hand, and make sure that I was taken care of. I haven’t been to Johnny dollars, since, but it is a cool dive. It’s got a pretty cool lounge area inside, as well as pool tables, and a patio area that seemed to be the popular for the customers. Most of all, the owner cares, and the leadership shown in my situation is why I would like to make my way back in the future. Thanks JDs!

How have I missed this place my whole life? I had a couple IPAs and didn't want to drink anything else strong and the bartender kindly offered an N/A IPA. Loved that about her! Most bartenders like to one more you to death but she respected the fact I wanted one more without it being so strong and loved she sold me on a N/A beer. She was also very kind btw

Anthony (ASM) got physical with a member of my group for calling him out on cutting in line multiple times for the pool tables. I had to pull his hands off said friend and step between. Upon realizing he’s outnumbered he went to the bouncers to kick out said friend. I asked Anthony if there’s a learning moment here I’d like to hear it. He got in my face. I said, "You don’t seem like a rational person." Anthony said, "I’M NOT! I’M NOT! I’M NOT!" My friend has never been kicked out of anywhere. I hope Anthony gets the help he needs - it doesn’t seem like management is it.

This is hands down the BEST dive bar in CLT. Personable and hardworking bartenders, great atmosphere, and fun crowd. Variety of activities including pool, darts, board/card games, ping pong, and corn hole. There’s ample space both indoors and outdoors to kick back and relax or make new friends. Grab some popcorn and a hotdog while you’re there. You can leave your mark in the bathroom with provided paint pens too. Check this place out!

The bartender with braids on Thanksgiving just had the worst attitude when talking the drink order. Other than that johnny dollars is always a vibe.

ATTENTION DELIVERY PERSONNEL This establishment practices tip bating. or this was my experience when shopping for them! The order had been sitting for awhile, it was very late but I managed to make it to the store prior to closing. I selected the items carefully making sure none of the items were spoiled or blemished. Upon delivery, the bouncer help me locate the person who ordered or similar which took more time than anticipated, but found him. Later I noticed the tip amount went from $6 to $2. Contacted support for further assistance and they shared no complaints for the items, nothing noted. Although customers have every right to change the tip, I didn’t understand why the drastic change. Had I known up front, I would not have accepted and delivered due to compensation of time, extra effort, etc didn’t align with payment.
