I haven’t gone out to a lot of social lunches (or dinners) as of late. But me, siblings and some friends of one of them ended up at this lovely spot called the Mid City Grill.
Which was interesting on its own, because I never really explored Johnson City in any capacity. Save random Craigslist junk I’d buy or sell in my last semester up at ETSU, most of Johnson City was not something I poked my nose it. It didn’t feel like you belonged anywhere, groups weren’t inviting you along or just the “you weren’t local” vibe everyone gave.
So being in a group and going here was actually a big chance.
Honestly there wasn’t a whole lot on their menu that I cared for, so I defaulted to a Philly Cheesesteak. And that actually wasn’t a bad choice. That was one of the best Philly cheesesteaks I’ve had for the few times I’ve eaten them, and it felt more like a cooked gourmet sandwich than dry cheapo stuff.
Other things I’ve had was some onion rings with a really nice ranch sauce of some sort. Apparently this was my sister’s “side”, so I swapped the fries with the onion rings. I don’t regret it.
8 out of 10, would go there again. Take company when you go.
Here’s a map if you choose to look it up yourself.
