Giovanni's Ristorante Reviews
Was there on October 28, 2023. Have been going there for the past 15 yrs. Unfortunately there has been a decline in food and customer service. The manager on duty that night, who was the owners niece, was rude and would not acknowledge a mistake in the order was made. Another issue is the awareness of dietary restrictions. Giovanni’s puts chicken stock in all their red sauces. Was made aware of that during the ordering. One of the waitress came to the table and said “We make a big pot of sauce and it just has a tiny bit of chicken stock in it so it is not a big deal”. Total lack of knowledge of dietary restrictions. Too bad there has been a decline. There are much better Italian restaurants with better customer service in the Detroit area.
Truly fabulous food accompanied with impeccable, familiar service. The staff are friendly and professional. My family has made Giovanni's our first choice for special occasions and celebrations of all kinds along with business events for twenty years and we've always been thrilled with the way we've been treated and delighted with the delicious food and drinks. In my travels around the world I've never found anyone that tops Giovanni's and very few that come close to equalling it.. The numerous tableside visits I've had from Fran over the years were delightful icing on the cake. Dave Reid

My son, who's moving to SanDiego, treated me there. He's been several times. Ambience, service, dinner and dessert were all excellent. Coffee was pretty darn good too. Can't go wrong!
