Giovanni's has the best food. I recommend the chicken parm and steak and pizza but all of their food is good. You won't be disappointed no matter what you get. Highly recommended!!!!
August 2025
I just finished my leftovers from my dinner at Giovanni’s last night. It was even better than last night if that’s even possible. We had a very relaxing dinner; celebrating my husband’s birthday. We all enjoyed everything. Great food! Will definitely be back for more!
June 2024
usually just order and pick up pizza from here, even though I live about a half hour away it's worth it. decided to go in for dinner after a family event tonight, didn't get pizza lol. we all had a variety from antipasto, clam strips, chicken wings, cavatelli, philly cheese steak French fries, chicken Marsala, ravioli with meatballs and the list goes on and on. when I say everything was absolutely delicious I mean EVERYTHING WAS ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS! SERVICE WAS TOP...
