We stumbled upon this restaurant by chance during our road trip to Death Valley, and it turned out to be a fantastic find! Their Mexican combo plates were absolutely delicious. We had amazing tacos and enchiladas filled with tender shredded beef, along with perfectly made quesadillas. The flavors were authentic, the portions generous, and everything tasted fresh and homemade. Definitely one of the best meals we had on our trip – highly recommended if you’re in the area!

We stopped by for breakfast. Excellent prices. The French toast was great as were the eggs. The texas skillet was not for me, very little eggs, potatoes were a little undercooked and too many peppers. Just the right amount of spice though, if you love your veggies you may have enjoyed it. Chips and salsa is good. I will try dinner there because the prices are so good and update my review accordingly! Plenty of parking

Johnny's has some of the better Mexican food I've eaten in Pahrump. This from someone who used to live a mile from food trucks and dining spots representing dishes from at least 5 states in Mexico. The chips and salsa were good. Chips could be better if served warm. The food was hot and flavorful. I liked the rice and beans. My enchilada had white cheese and green sauce with the appropriate tangy bite. My carnitas taco was very good. My sister's huevos rancheros plate also was very good but she was disappointed that the chile relleno she ordered ala carte did not have enough cheese in it to get a good score. Other minuses: bad tasting water, booth at the front door has an uncomfortable 3" dip in the first seat. Positives: Good food, extremely helpful and friendly staff, plan to return many times. Rated 9 on a 1-10 scale.
