We love giovanni’s pizza and pasta and have had it for years but this is the first time I’m a bit disappointed. There were two cherry tomatoes in my salad. One of them had a big green spot on top of the tomato. I look close and it’s mold.. As a pregnant woman, I feel more cautious with the food I eat. Just didn’t think I would have to be with giovanni’s. Lesson learned. Always check your food before you eat ?
Ordered eggplant parmasan and it was delicious! Restaurant quality and enough for two meals. Came with nice salad (not just a bowl of lettuce) made with crispy field greens and toppings. Homemade Italian dressing was very good too. It's not like the menu says; not rolled with ricotta, just has cheese and sauce but that's all it needed (and pasta side with it too). They should probably change what menu says. Will definitely order from them again!
Well, now I remember why I stopped ordering from this place. The 6 cheese pizza is incredibly salty. I asked for half pepperoni, and it's there, but there are multiple pieces of pepperoni stacked up - I guess someone was too lazy to actually take the slices apart. The crust is thick on one side and flatbread style thin on the other side. The cheesy twist bread...I haven't tried it yet but there's not much there for the price. I'm sorry I decided to give them another try.
From a NATIONAL PIZZA RATER: Looks like a disaster inside of the store BUT they have a nice logo outside . How can you be in the pizza business but for people that are single and don't have a family or 8 kids to feed that just want a couple slices as you won't sell it all it takes is one warmer oven how can you be in the pizzeria business and not want to get any business from single people it's absolutely ridiculous get with the pizza program!! its so sad when you get can 2 slices and a "pop" from a gas station and costo but those who call themselves a pizzeria DONT EVEN KNOW WHAT A "PIE" MEANS and cant sell you 2 slices as a single person, you are missing out on a huge population of people!
Had to edit my review from years ago, not sure what happened to this place but it's really gone down hill. Called around the time they opened and was quoted 40-45 mins. delivery (8 mins away with traffic) for 3 large pizzas to feed a landscaping crew. 7 phone calls and TWO HOURS LATER, it finally arrived. When I asked if they were not going to charge me full price to make it fair ($60- maybe knock $15-20 off to keep a customer), they basically said it wasn't their fault, and that a "manager" would call me back (obviously never did). Second delivery mishap for my last two orders from there. They should probably be carry out only if they can't find a better delivery method.
Don't not order from this place. I was told 45 minutes to and hours. Call after an hour and 20 minutes and would not answer the phone. They didn't close till 10 and I was trying to call at 9:38.
First and last time ordering. Pizza was lukewarm and bottom was drenched in grease. Center was raw dough and pizza . Trashed it. Store refused to give us refund on a $15 pizza. Also was delivered to house next door and left on their porch. Worst pizza place we have ever dealt with.
If you are ever in the mood for penne pasta with vodka sauce, this is the place to order from! Each order can feed 2 people. So far out of all the places I've eaten pasta in South hills, this place is the best.
We were visiting from out of town and were searching for a good gluten and dairy free pizza! Giovanni’s hit the spot and Was easily the best GF DF pizza I have had! The service was great, our pizza were done within 8 minutes and the staff was very friendly. We are already making plans to return the next time we are in Pitt!
I really love that they deliver beer, and they have a very extensive menu as well. I haven't tried much except their vegan options which are pretty disappointing. They have so much potential but I get the feeling that they're made by someone who doesn't understand the difference between vegetarianism and veganism, and maybe doesn't cook vegetarian dishes that much. For instance, their vegan chicken gyro-- why not a vegetarian version with cheese and sauce and, I dunno, flavor? Their fake chicken is cooked well but without any seasoning whatsoever. Maybe the cook is afraid that flavoring it won't make it vegan any longer? I also ordered the vegan wings which were just breaded vegan chicken fingers, again no seasoning, and honey mustard sauce. Blech! Fried to perfection and not dried out but flavorless.
