I don't like leaving 1 star reviews but this pizza was baaaaaad. Delfinos and Windy City are WAY better. The crust was mushy and the sauce was so bland, like straight tomato sauce from a can. See that glistening in the photo? That is water. Not grease. Straight water. Soaked some of it up w a napkin to try to avoid the rivers running off of each piece. Didn't work.

We had a very good dinner tonight. We had a large NY style pepperoni pizza, cheesy garlic bread, and a Greek salad. The salad was very fresh and had high quality ingredients. The cheesy bread was my favorite with a chunky marinara sauce. The pizza had great flavor! The service was excellent too. The only constructive feedback I'd offer is a cleaner bathroom and menus (had dried marinara sauce on them and with Covid concerns expect extra sanitation). It wasn't terrible but not necessarily clean either.

My husband and I loved this place. The food was awesome. We a got New York style pizza. They also had one of his fa orite beers on tap so that was a bonus. They also serve Chicago style pizzas so we plan on trying one of those next time. We enjoyed sitting out on the patio but the inside of the restaurant looks comfy as well. We'll definitely be back.

Nice patio. The noise from the Eastlake Bridge wasn't the nuisance we were worried it would be when we chose to sit outside. We shared a salad, meatballs, a calzone, and the goat cheese and prosciutto jalapeño poppers. The only reason I'd order a different salad next time is that some of the other ones looked so good.
The service was also outstanding. The staff was fun, helpful, and attentive. We're already planning our next visit.

Yum. Yummy salad. Yummy pizza. Yummy sauce. Nice people. I got the asparagus and greens salad and pizza with half pepperoni and half margherita. Really the pepperoni was the star. Wonderful flavor to the pizza. Staff were attentive and nice and there's ample outdoor and indoor seating. Yum yum. Only pieces of feedback were to candy the walnuts in the salad. :).

The pizza is delicious here! The crust is a magical texture, kind of crunchy and chewy, whatever it is, it's delicious! The Chicago deep dish pizzas take 40 min so be prepared to wait if you come by, but their NY styled pizza comes out quick!
They have awesome service as well, super attentive and friendly!

This place was packed when we arrived. A surprise birthday party was being thrown on the patio so we ended up sitting inside. Service was a bit slow, but I figure that was because it was a particularly busy day.
We ordered a Cesar salad and a pie - half pepperoni half Giuseppe's Goodfella. I was a bigger fan of the pepperoni had great spice and the sauce is a little sweet which complimented the spice. The salad was so so, probably wouldn't get it again. The meatball on the Goodfella was not to my taste by my partner preferred that half.
I ordered a house red and my partner got a beer

We hit this joint on a whim, pizza near me search! It was number four on the list but the only one in the top four that we had not visited.
We arrived and found the area was difficult to find parking, like most places in Seattle these days but just as I was ready to give up, we found a spot.
When we walked in we were immediately welcomed in and offered indoor or outdoor seating. We chose inside and were given a choice of tall table or short. We sat down and used our phones to obtain the menu.
The menu has lots of options and pizza styles, New York, Chicago deep dish, etc. I'm not going to lie

Found this place online and was intrigued by the good reviews. Came down and was glad there was some parking across the street, but the spots were tiny. Don't bring your SUVs...
The other thing was that my wait time for my food was quite a bit longer than promised. It wasn't a deal breaker, but I was starting to get antsy...
But thankfully that's where the unpleasantness ended. The food was excellent! I got the pepperoni mushroom Chicago style pizza (with kalamatas!). It was my first time trying a Chicago deep dish pie. I was very impressed by the flavor and the lovely thick

This is for the Chicago Style. I have friends that live in Snohomish they used to live in Fremont and went to Kylie's all the time ever since Kylie's closed they would try another Chicago Pizza place around the city but just never found one they liked. When I ran across Johnny Mo's I let them know about the place they ordered and drove all the way into town and have been hooked ever since. When my friend comes to visit me in Seattle he has to always picks up pizza to bring home to his brother and sister-in-law. I asked if he would mine if I went this time and placed an order since

Once again on my pizza journey. Came across this place off of Yelp. Took me nearly an hour to arrive at this place, the things I do for food. I ordered the Chicago deep dish pizza. I love everything was packed underneath the marinara sauce, the cheese and pepperoni. Lots of flavor and that cheese pull was the nail in the coffin for me. I'd definitely come back, the management was very polite and welcoming as well.

I had the Stratton Spinach Chicago pizza which comes with mozzarella, spinach, garlic, basil, mushrooms, onions. I appreciate having a veggie option that doesn't have olives. The sauce was spot on with the imported tomatoes. The pizza itself is not really that deep. The crust is good if you're not comparing it to Lou Malnati's or Giordano's. Overall, one of the better pizza options in Seattle if you're having a Chicago-style craving or want something different from most Seattle pizza joints. I was also happy with their pizza box design showing Chicago icons.

We will not be going back to JohnnyMo's soon. Ordered two 10" Chicago's totaling $55 before tax/tip (no extra toppings, no drinks, only the two pizzas right off the menu). Not much pizza for the price as these aren't deep dish (see my picture). I'm happy to pay for good pizza but this was really disappointing.
The crust was completely flavorless, dense, over cooked (I had to eat around the dry bottom crust; I usually eat all the crust), and had a consistency like they were still experimenting trying to get it right. I gave two stars because the staff were super friendly

So The closest I've come to trying Chicago pizza other then this was frozen Lou Malnatis so I'm no expert BUT this pizza was amazing! By far the best pizza crust I've had and the crust is my favorite part of pizza! We ordered two Chicago pizzas the Bethany's Special and a make your own with bacon and pineapple both were so good! Definitely don't let the price sway you because you are paying for quality product and it was worth every penny! The service was great and the location was adorable. Very cute neighborhood!
My only complaint is the bacon was more like tiny ham?

We got a New York Style pepperoni pizza. The pepperoni and cheese were delicious. That said, the dough was a little soggy and chewy, and there was a little more grease than desired.
We ate the second half of this pizza reheated, and were able to get it a little crispier. This brings the rating up to 4 from what would otherwise have been a 3 star slice. Ask for extra crispy.
We also got an Italian salad. The dressing when combined with the cured meat made it extremely salty. Still relatively tasty, but use moderation when adding the dressing.
I'd eat here again for pizza in a pinch.

The atmosphere and service are great. It was really busy last night, but Ralph service was on pace. The only beef I have is that the BBQ pizza came with onions, jalapenos, and pickles which were not mentioned on the menu. I had my 2 kids there who were starving and we ordered Chicago which took a while to cook. Luckily I ordered a pepperoni pizza as well.
The menu should state what's on the BBQ pizza otherwise it should be safe to assume its bbq, cheese, sauce. I wished the waiter had mentioned this as well.

OH MY GOODNESS! My husband and I got a Bethany’s special deep dish pizza for take out today for lunch and we’re blown away! It was absolute perfection. The crust was buttery and crispy, the sauce was sweet and perfectly seasoned. We devoured the entire thing within 15 minutes and are already planning a return trip to try the New York style. Best Pizza I’ve had in Seattle, and definitely comparable to the deep dish I’ve had in Chicago.
Update: we went back the next day and got the New York Style arugula Bianca pizza and it was also amazing!
