Giovanni's Italian Ristorante

Giovanni's was absolutely fantastic. I was absolutely happy with the service and the flavor of our food. They actually paid attention and didn't miss a beat. 10/10 would recommend. I will be back very soon!

There was crap floating around in our water, mouth imprints still on the glasses, stingy on the bread, butter tasted old. Food was disappointing. $62 for that??

Just tried the Sauk rapids mn new location, service was absolutely horrendous , sat for 25 mins before seeing a server,(it was slow maybe 8 customers in the building at most) had to ask them to bring us the free bread that every other table had, sat with empty drinks for 20 mins, the mussels were rancid, the meat balls were dry and flavorless, Alfredo has a odd taste almost like they put maybe nutmeg in it? They never remodeled the building from when it was el Loro Mexican restaurant so it still has Mexican decor 😂 oh also the plates were dirty, and they still charged us $115 for 3 adult entrees and one kids menu spaghetti. Absolutely garbage food atmosphere and service. This place won’t be around for very long. Very disappointing, we had high hopes for a new restaurant in town
