In 2018, two friends, John and Erik, embarked on an exciting venture that would bring the flavors of Latin America to their home town, Akron Ohio. John, hailing from Latin America, with a background in military and paramedic services, was driven by a desire to make a positive impact alongside his passion for authentic Latin cuisine. Erik, with a background in the fine dining food service industry and armed with financial and business acumen, complemented John's passions by ensuring the smooth operation and growth of the business. Together, they laid the foundation of Johnny Lótes Latin Street Corn, with a shared commitment to prioritizing customer and employee satisfaction. This principle has been at the core of the business, fostering a welcoming environment where every customer is treated like family, and every team member is valued and supported. Since its inception, Johnny Lóte's has not only elevated taste buds with their incredible street corn, but has also cultivated a strong sense of community through their dedication to the customer and employee experience!
Inspired from a classic Latin American side, Johnny Lótes elevates the already great Latin street corn. By carefully cultivating elóte into a main course, we transformed this culinary classic into the ultimate Latin American food experience. At Johnny Lóte's, our signature street corn comes standard vegetarian and gluten free!
Johnny Lóte's operates two mobile food operations and boasts a permanent stand at Canal Park, home of the Akron Rubber Ducks.
