The place has excellent food. The customers are older. I was 60 and was the youngest one there. Prices are average to high for amount of food you get. I like that you can go there and enjoy conversation with your companion without some loud obnoxious music to compete with. They serve the food fast so you are in and out in no time. The chicken marsala with rice was very good. I had a pork chop with fried potatoes another time and the chop was tough and hard to cut. It tasted ok but I would not get that again. My friend had shrimp and scallops on a bed of risotto that was most excellent. See pics below. I am looking forward to my next visit. Want to try something new. I recommend it. Just don't order the chops. Wish they had larger portions.

From the moment I walked in , I was greated with a smile and a welcoming feeling, to the beautiful Italian music on a crisp sound system delightful to the ear and a subtle yet elegant interior design. I started with a glass of merlo with thier bread and butter and the chicken soup , perfect portion and great taste with the wine and soup. For my entree I went with a simple ravioli that came with a salad with thier house vinegarette. Soooooooooooooooo good!!!! I 💯 percent recommend this establishment for a lunch or dinner!

We received a gift card to Gianni’s and were so excited to go. When we arrived, they appeared to be closing (early) so we called to check. The person answering the phone greeted with “Cutie Patootie’s House of Beauties”. I asked if it was Giovanni’s and she replied with a snark that it was. She then confirmed they were closed. That alone told me that they were not a restaurant I wanted to trust to provide me with a good meal and service. Truly sad that we were treated with such unprofessionalism and lack of kindness.

First time trying this place.
Went there craving beef tips in marsala sauce, but they didn't have tips (not their fault, they were just opening for the day and the meat shipment was running late), so we substituted with a regular steak with the same sauce.
The interior is small but more beautiful than I expected with a nice atmosphere.
My server was a lovely woman, the table bread was excellent, my steak was a bit thin, but cooked perfectly and the sauce more than made up for it (soooooo good), and for the price I was pleased.

I'll definitely be going back in the future.

We haven’t been to Gianni’s for a very long time, but returned tonight. It’s time to make this one of our regular outings again. The food and service both are top shelf!!! It was great to see a hostess we recognized from “way back when”. The chef has a knack for food preparation and seasoning, and I’m sure you’ll develop a list of favorites. Give this place a shot.

Good marrow! Gianni please reconsider thy opening times and closing times. I do lack mine dinner at 4 and thou are never at the business to open it up for me. Thou food is most mediocre and because of this I grant doth 3 stars
Sincerely
