" Simply the best Italian restaurant I have ever visited! The quality of the ingredients shines through! The owner genuinely cares about his customers, and this was palpable. The bruschetta was delightful, and the salmon carpaccio was out of this world! The service was quick and friendly, making the experience even more enjoyable. I wouldn't change anything about this place but their opening hours, which could be extended for dinner. Definitely will return. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the pleasure of dining at Cafe Gianni recently, and it was a wonderful experience. Upon entering, we were greeted warmly, and the vibe of the restaurant was cozy and inviting. The mushroom crostini was spectacular; it blended with the wine to create a delightful starter. I chose the pollo piccata and was impressed with the lemony goodness and the al dente spaghetti! I must also mention the gluten-free pasta; it was the best I've ever tried. Service was impressive; I felt well cared for throughout our visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" This Italian restaurant has become our go-to for family dinners! Every time we visit, the quality of food and service is consistently fantastic. I especially appreciate the chef's willingness to accommodate our vegetarian needs with a unique dish that was both filling and flavorful. The ravioli was freshly made and the tiramisu was the perfect ending to our meal. The ambiance is warm and inviting, making you feel right at home. Highly recommend Cafe Gianni! " (*Curated Review*)

" Cafe Gianni is one of the best Italian places I’ve ever tried! The food was truly a delight, especially the mushroom risotto. The chef personally interacts with diners, which adds a special touch to the experience. The ambiance was superb for a night out. However, I found the service a bit too eager at times. Overall, very impressed and will return to try more dishes. " (*Curated Review*)

" Cafe Gianni is worth the hype! I loved how every dish was homemade and crafted with care. The wait staff were friendly and made us feel right at home. The only downside was it took a while to get our entrees, but it was totally fine as the food was delicious and made fresh. Will definitely come back for more pasta and an amazing atmosphere! " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing about Cafe Gianni from friends, I decided to give it a try, and it definitely lived up to the hype! The pasta was cooked to perfection with delightful flavor combinations. I had the linguine with clams, and my companion ordered the bolognese. Both were excellent! The restaurant had a lovely atmosphere, but it did feel slightly cramped. Overall, excellent meal with attentive service. " (*Curated Review*)

" Cafe Gianni is an absolute gem! I've been several times, and each visit has been a culinary delight. The chef prepares everything with such passion and detail. The eggplant parmigiana was the best I've tasted, and the cannoli finale was perfectly sweet. The atmosphere is perfect for a date night or casual dinner. However, the portion sizes seem to fluctuate, which is the only downside I've experienced. " (*Curated Review*)
