Downtown icon Johnson's Diner has been a regular stop for soul food-seeking locals – including area politicians and NBA basketball players – since 1955. Its June 2006 move to Church Street's City View apartment building expanded seating from the cramped 21 to 120. But matriarch Lillie Johnson's "soul food to please the taste" is the same ole rotating selection of Southern soul food standards, including fried catfish, meat loaf and smothered pork chops, all served with a basket of cornbread or rolls. Mix and match with veggies such as fried okra and green beans, but a slice of the sweet potato pie is almost requisite. No alcohol available. Serving breakfast Mon–Sat, lunch and dinner daily. Voted Best Southern/Soul Food in the 2008 Orlando Weekly readers poll.
