The food was excellent. Our waitress was new so there were a few hiccups to be expected. My only complaint is how loud the resturant is. You had to yell across the table in order to be heard. Even my children commented on how loud the resturant was.

We were greeted with smiles, received excellent service from our waitress, Cara, and the food was simply amazing. If you're looking for authentic flavor & taste, Giovanni's is your new favorite Italian spot! Love, love, love! Thanks Giovanni's! We'll be back!

The waitress was very nice and the Italian food great (don't order steak at an Italian restaurant)...There were 8 of us. We had $200 in gift certificates that I personally purchased in June. When it came time to pay the $335 bill, the waitress came back and said we could not use more than $100 of them. The waitress was clearly mortified and we didn't want to add to her stress so we didn't argue about it. Giovannis was THE PLACE in the 80s and later with real Italian...
