" Delicious meal! Stopped here after hearing recommendations and was very pleased with the experience. The staff was quick to seat us and take our orders. The fettuccine Alfredo was the star of the show, creamy and delicious. I will definitely return to try additional dishes on the menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" Never had a bad meal at Giovanni's! The variety truly impresses me - you can enjoy classic Italian entrees, and also try unique Thai dishes. I love bringing friends here; they always leave happy and full. The atmosphere is perfect for gatherings, and the staff is the cherry on top. I'll continue to be a loyal patron! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had lunch here last week and it was quite refreshing! The mix of Italian and Thai cuisine offers a unique twist. We tried the calzone which was quite large—definitely a 2-meal kind of size! The only downside was the wait time, but our server was friendly and made it worthwhile. Plan on returning soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I hosted a small gathering at Giovanni's, and it was absolutely enjoyable! Everyone praised the food, and I felt proud to have chosen such a lovely restaurant. Service was a bit slow, but the food certainly made up for it. I will definitely recommend Giovanni's to friends and family! " (*Curated Review*)

" Disappointingly average. I came in excited to try some authentic Italian cuisine, but the food was underwhelming. My pasta felt a little overcooked, and though it was edible, it lacked the vibrant flavors I hoped for. I definitely think they need to tweak their recipes a bit to bring them up to an authentic standard. Service was friendly but much slower than I expected. Not sure if I'll be back anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" We celebrated my husband's birthday at Giovanni's, and it was fantastic! The ambiance created the perfect backdrop for our night. The staff treated us like royalty, and the food was of excellent quality. I highly recommend their house special pasta—it was fresh and flavorful. We’ll come back soon for another celebration! " (*Curated Review*)

" Giovanni's is a cozy little spot that offers great Italian food. While the service can be a bit slow during busy hours, the staff always maintains a friendly demeanor. I particularly enjoyed their chicken parmesan, which was cooked to perfection. The portion size was generous, and I left feeling satisfied. " (*Curated Review*)
