Pizza is OUTSTANDING! This was our first time sitting on the restaurant side, and will be our last. Service on the bar side has been much better in the past (we've been here quite a few times). I've had a few other menu items, too, and all have been really good. Just go to the bar side, you'll be happy. :)

Early bird special’s are excellent. Highly recommend the Chicken Parmesan. Save room for the mini cannoli!

When my wife and I entered the establishment around three o'clock the restaurant was pretty full with around twenty or so diners. There was only one server whom we felt extremely bad for as she was trying her best to seat people and take orders! She was great by the way! We order the Early Bird special which comes with a drink, side and dessert. I never received my caprese side salad and when I mentioned it to the server she was very apologetic and said she would see where it was. When she came back to the table she had our entrees in hand so I politely declined the side salad that apparently got lost. She got the owner/manager to remove it from the bill as the caprese salad was an added change. The entire time as we dined we watched this poor server running around trying her best to please the patrons of this establishment and not once did anyone, a manger or owner try to help her. Do better at helping your staff and I believe the quality of the food suffered as a result of how busy it was.

I’m really surprised to see the bad reviews. My experience was amazing. From the polite person on the phone to the service received. The bread, side salad, lasagna & manicotti were all absolutely amazing. I’m really glad we stopped here!

Stopped in for the lunch special of a slice, salad, and drink.... Only $9! Both were very good and it's more of an Italian restaurant than a pizza shop. I will definitely be back to try their entrees.The server/bartender was a lovely young lady. The restaurant was impeccably clean also!Kid-friendliness: Definitely kid friendly

Went there yesterday and the pizza was so-so kinda soggy in the middle. I got the shrimp scampi and it was maybe 4 pieces of shrimp (some still had bits of shell that got miised) it had no parsley for color and just tasted like garlic- water. It was a family of 6. Definately not worth the $176 I spent.

Definitely a locals place…which is good. My friend and I had 2 terrific pizzas (great crust) and wine. Price can’t be beat. And the best part of the evening was Kaleb, our waiter. He was prompt, friendly and efficient. And he knew about the wines. I believe he was the only wait person in a very busy dining room. He did an amazing job.

We have had lunch at CUCINA GIOVANNI'S 2 days in a row and Chef Tony made some great meals for us! Yesterday Mgr Jenn recommended their Marsala Steak Sandwich for Doug who wanted a 'juicy sandwich' and it was their yumm-o Antipasto Salad for me! That sandwich was theee best! It was so good we went back today and BOTH had it this time! Since I don't eat carbs, I had my 'breadless' sandwich insides served piping hot in a oval au gratin dish along with a side salad! It was soooo good! Their salads are always fresh and delish! Today Fionnuala waited on us. We just love it there! Great service and wonderful food! 5-Stars!It's now a year later and we have continued to have good meals and fun service at Giovanni's. We ate there on Monday with our son-in-law and all had good meals: SiL had chicken fettucine, Husband had the 2 slice lunch special and I had a Philly Cheesesteak. ALL good!Today we went back and we both had the same thing: Spinach Calzones. I tell you what! They were so delicious along with their perfect-to-our-taste marina! And of course, each calzone makes TWO meals! It's a win-win for us and another 5-star rating for Cucina Giovanni's!

Today I ordered pizza and salad, the Caesar salad was so-so, but the pizza was just a nightmare. Firstly, it’s overcooked, secondly, it’s small, and the price is the same as for a big one.
