" Like stepping into your family’s dining room, Gio's delivers a warm atmosphere filled with the comforts of home-cooked Italian meals. This was my first visit, and I was impressed by the pizza, which was thin and crispy with just the right amount of toppings. The staff was courteous, even if a little overwhelmed during the dinner rush. I will return to try more; this is definitely a hidden gem in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" Every time I bring friends to Gio's, they are amazed by the food! It’s like sharing a secret. The family-style service and delicious Italian dishes make it feel like a home-cooked meal. My all-time favorite is the baked ziti. Oh, and don't skip on dessert; their tiramisu is divine! The only downside is, it does get crowded, so plan ahead or go a bit earlier to snag a table without a wait. Even so, the food truly shines and keeps me coming back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I couldn't wait to try Gio's after hearing so many great things. The décor felt inviting and reminiscent of an old Italian grandmother's kitchen, which instantly made me feel at home. The pizza was the highlight—it had fresh, zesty tomato sauce and perfectly melted cheese. The service was friendly, but we did have to wait a while for our food, which was slightly disappointing. If you love Italian food like I do, Gio's is definitely worth trying out, as the flavors are authentic and delightful. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been to Gio's multiple times over the years and had varying experiences. The food itself is usually quite good; their spaghetti and meatballs are classic and tasty. However, I had a disappointing visit where my meal came out lukewarm and lacking sauce. The staff apologized and offered to remake it, which I appreciated. The intimate feel of the restaurant is a huge plus, and I can’t help but enjoy the nostalgia. I will return for sure, just hoping for consistent quality. " (*Curated Review*)

" My latest visit to Gio’s was one for the books! Their brunch offering of Italian frittata was a hit! It had all the right elements, and the portion sizes were just right—definitely not overstuffed like some other places. For my main, I enjoyed their classic marinara pasta, which wasn’t too tangy or sweet, just perfectly seasoned. I appreciated the efficiency of the service, with our orders coming out promptly. I can't wait for the next opportunity to dine here again! " (*Curated Review*)

" Though I enjoyed my visit to Gio's, I had higher expectations based on what I had heard. The ambiance was nice, but the service could be more attentive. The pizza was good, yet not the best I've tried. Just a bit more effort on consistency would go a long way. I’m open to giving this place another try to see if it can impress me during my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Gio's Pizza & Spaghetti House is a staple in the area! The homemade red gravy is something you cannot miss—it packs unique flavors that remind me of my grandmother’s cooking. The pizza is a must-try; being thin crust, it allows every topping to shine. There have been times when the service felt rushed, but that often happens when it’s busy. This place holds a special place in my heart, and I recommend it to everyone. " (*Curated Review*)
