As a child, John Caracci (founder of Johnny C's Deli & Pasta) grew-up in his grandmother's kitchen sampling authentic Italian cuisine. Johnny's grandmother took great pride in the food she prepared for her family and it was here Johnny developed a passion for cooking. In 1992, he decided to open a restaurant that mirrored the experiences he had in his grandmother's kitchen.

Johnny wanted the patrons of his business to feel the same sense of family, contentment, and love he felt with his grandmother those years ago. In order to provide this experience, Johnny knew he would have to create a product that would live up to her exacting standards. Johnny C's Deli & Pasta is one of Kansas City's most popular Italian deli's and has become quite the KC staple for any soul looking for delicious home-style Italian food.

This place is a must have in Kansas City. If they have the fresh tomato salad you got to get that with your order. I would eat there 6 days a week if I was in the area more.

I got the Chicken Parmesan sandwich and it reminded me of a school lunch. The bread and sauce was very soggy and the chicken was very slim. Proportions were not very big either. The only pro is that it was delivered on time. 3/10.

Joanna catered my Christmas party This year, the food was phenomenal and the talk of the party. The phone calls and texts keep coming with rave reviews of every aspect of her service and fantastic Italian food. Thanks Vince and Joanna, you made the party a success.

I love Johnny C’s, staff is amazing and the food is great. Please make a visit and see for yourself!
Only reason I gave 4 instead of 5 stars, is employee wages. I really hope they are able to up the pay for their sandwich makers and dishwashers to a living wage, (currently $9-$10 p/h according to Glassdoor and other employee reviews). I unfortunately can’t in good conscience shop at a restaurant that doesn’t pay a living wage, but would love to return if I knew their wages had gone up. Maybe just an old glassdoor review?

Hands down the best deli sandwiches in Kansas City. We’ve ordered the Italian Trio Sub a few times for carry out. The meats and cheeses are delicious, high quality and plentiful. The bread roll is also super fresh. Whether you call in an order or order online, you receive great friendly service. Highly recommended!

The food was actually so good. I was surprised. I had the Italian beef special and everything about it was perfect.
I honestly could have gone back and ordered a second one.
I'll be back.

This place was great! A real hidden gym - really hidden, I didn't even see it until we pulled up in front of the place! It opens up inside and is very welcoming, the entire family works the registers, the food is amazing at a good price. The walls are covered in family photos which reminds me of home.
