Update as of Oct 2017: Johnny Rockets branch at Avenue K has closed down
Established in the year of 1986 by Ronn Teitelbaum, Johnny Rockets is a leading global restaurant chain specializes in classic all-American experience. The name, Johnny Rockets, is a combination of Johnny Appleseed story and Oldsmobile Rocket 88, who both embodied the concept of classic Americana and the promise of future. The franchise has finally landed in Malaysia, first in The Curve, and now in Avenue K, Kuala Lumpur.
As the tagline “The Original Hamburger” shows, burger takes the limelight in Johnny Rockets. They do not compromise for the freshness and quality of their burger, from preparation till serving to customer. But of course, other mouth-watering fares such as fries, salad, sandwiches and shakes are not shadowed too.
Bacon Cheese Fries RM15.90
Bacon Cheese Fries add more flavours to your American fries with a topping of beef bacon and melted sharp cheddar cheese. Differ from other French fries, Johnny’s uses a larger 3/8″ straight cut potato, deep fried to golden brown to result in crunchy outside, more filling like a baked potato inside.
Spicy Naked Rocket Wings RM22.90
Chicken wings smothered with traditional spicy barbecue sauce. Finger licking good for its sweet, spicy and smoky concoction.
Chicken Club Salad RM17.90
Chicken Club Salad loads fibers and vitamin in one plate, yet not lack of protein. Fresh salad green, olive, bell peppers, ripe tomatoes, shredded cheddar cheese served over with chicken, tossed in sesame dressing.
Bacon Cheddar Single RM24.90
Burger patties in Johnny Rockets are made from 100% imported meat. Fresh, never-frozen and made to order. It is flavoured up with special seasoning while cooking to enhance the beefy sensation. Cooked till well done on hot flat top to lock the juiciness inside while providing a nice caramelized served at the outside edge.
Smoke House Single is the most basic choice of all, combining single beef patty, beef bacon, sharp cheddar cheese, JR’s crisp onion rings and “smoke house” barbecue-ranch sauce within two fluffy bun. Add RM2.50 to replace fries with onion rings or sweet potato fries.
Tuna Melt RM17.90
Goes light with Tuna Melt, showcasing tuna, cheddar cheese sandwiched in between white bread or wholemeal bread. Other options include BBQ Chicken Melt that draws tender and smoky chicken goodness; Grilled Cheese Melt purely for melting cheesy pleasure, or Patty Melt that place sweet, caramilized onion and cheesy satisfaction together.
Philly Cheese Steak
We like this Philly Cheese Steak, stuffing perfectly grilled thin slices of beef, grilled onions, bell peppers, cheddar cheese in hoagie roll full to the brim, or to say, overflowed.
Chicken Philly Cheese Steak RM23.90
Perfectly grilled thin slices of chicken topped with grilled onions, bell peppers and cheddar cheese served in hoagie roll. Complete with fries and coleslaw.
The Houston RM25.90
Something spicy? Then entice your tastebud with The Houston chicken burger. The two fresh soft bun houses a thick slice of succulent chicken patty, jalapeno peppers, pepper Jack cheese, crisp coral lettuce, fresh tomato slice and spicy sauce. Feel the burn, the spiciness lingers.
A visit to Johnny Rockets is not complete without a glass of their famous milkshake. Be it vanilla, strawberry, chocolate, banana, coffee milkshake or any other Johnny Rockets’s milkshake from the Original and Deluxe shakes list. All is blended from four scoops (YES, four scoops!) of imported, high quality ice cream made in US, mixed with fresh milk to give birth to this extra rich, creamy, milky and chilling milkshakes. So good, so popular that almost 10 millions glasses are sold worldwide every year!
So head over to the available outlets for their awesome milkshakes and burger.Good news! The largest Johnny Rockets outlet is on their way to Sunway Pyramid Shopping Mall, and also Pavillion KL in near future.
