Highlighting Tenant of the Month:

"This is not your typical meat and 3.
Tim Hontzas (whose grandfather's name was Johnny)
dishes up fresh Southern fare with a dash of Greek flair."
For Chef Timothy Hontzas, the path
into cooking professionally came naturally
due to his Greek heritage. His grandfather, Johnny Hontzopolous, migrated to New Orleans
in 1921 with seventeen dollars
in his pocket. He went on to open
three successful restaurants, in Mississippi,
the last being his namesake.
Timothy is the Chef and Owner of
Johnny's Restaurant in Homewood, AL.
Here you will find the comfort
of classic "Meat & Three" dishes,
as well as Greek specialties, such as
Spanakopita, Pastitsio and Baklava. As
with the original Johnny's, breakfast classics
will be served, and some made with a slight facelift.
Tim's success has been driven by his
Papou's philosophy,
"We prepare food for the body,
but Good Food to feed the Soul."
