Food was delicious wait staff was excellent ambience was special

Never ever disappointed In Giovanni’s. Amazing staff, amazing ambiance, amazing food.

Outstanding meal. Communicative & attentive staff. Space. No blaring tvs.

My wife and I had the pleasure of celebrating our anniversary there. Our appetizers, dinner and drinks were all excellent and lived up to the reputation of this restaurant. Our server, Sarah, was very attentive and helpful as she guided us through our evening, as this was our first visit to their establishment. We will definitely be returning and it will not take an "occasion" to do so. Thank you Giovanni's and thank you Sarah for a wonderful evening, Michael R.

Anniversary

Rice balls (starter) were magnificent! I loved the Cannelloni de Pesce- very rich and flavorful with a delicious sauce to mop it all up! Ask for a virgin mojito for a fun and tasty drink if you aren’t consuming alcohol (pregnant, in my case!).

Everything was great but one thing that bothered us was that the door to the kitchen was right there you can see in there and is bright white while the restaurants ambiance was nice dark and cozy so whenever someone went in and out that door it was ruining the vibes with the bright lights coming from the kitchen.

Seafood cannoli’s & lasagna were awesome. We also got the artichoke appetizer. They were good, but a little pricy for 3 small pieces. Not worth the $18 for them. Overall, wonderful experience and can’t wait to go back!

The Alfredo was the best I’ve ever had. The risotto balls were amazing. Everything we tried was delicious.

Amazing food and friendly, great staff. Lasagna is the best.
