About Johnny’s Diner
Johnny’s Diner on Curry Ford has been family owned & operated since 1995, serving breakfast and lunch the old-school way: hot off the flat-top, with friendly faces and a fresh pot of coffee.
Our Story
What started as a neighborhood spot for a quick bite became Orlando’s go-to for homestyle cookin’. From fluffy buttermilk pancakes and classic omelets to hand-formed burgers and stacked sandwiches, we cook the kind of food that feels like home.
- Made fresh daily with quality, locally sourced ingredients when possible.
- All-day breakfast favorites, plus hearty lunch plates and lighter options.
- Community-first hospitality — you’re family the moment you walk in.
