" I took my family to Giovanni's for dinner last weekend, and everyone enjoyed it. The staff were attentive, and the atmosphere was cozy and welcoming. We ordered a variety of dishes, including gnocchi and veal, which were delicious! My only concern was that the service was a bit slow considering how packed the place was. But still, it was a wonderful outing, and we will return soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Giovanni's is a hidden treasure in the bustling city! As soon as I walked in, I felt welcomed. The owner is very hands-on and took the time to explain the menu. The seafood linguine was cooked to perfection with a generous portion of seafood in a rich sauce. Although it was busy, I was impressed by how attentive the service remained throughout the evening. Keep in mind that the wait can be long, so be patient! Authentic Italian cuisine at its finest! " (*Curated Review*)

" My husband and I celebrated our anniversary here, and it was absolutely perfect! The ambiance was romantic, with soft lighting and cozy seating. We shared the bruschetta appetizer, which was fresh and garlicky. For my entree, the truffle mushroom ravioli blew my mind! I could taste the freshness in every bite. The staff was attentive without being intrusive. The owner even stopped by our table to offer a dessert on the house for our special day. Will definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" Before visiting Giovanni's, I had never experienced Italian cuisine this authentic outside of Italy! The fresh ingredients and the chef's meticulous attention to detail made each dish shine. The owner is extremely welcoming, and his passion is infectious. The spaghetti and meatballs were out of this world! The only caveat is you have to arrive early to avoid the long wait since they don't take reservations. Overall, an amazing dining experience that I would recommend to anyone! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently discovered Giovanni's and I must say, it was one of the best dining experiences I've ever had. The atmosphere is quaint and charming, reminiscent of a classic Italian trattoria. I ordered the lobster ravioli, and it was divine! The pasta was fresh, and the sauce artfully complemented the dish, making every bite a delight. The staff were warm and welcoming, making me feel like part of a big Italian family. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for authentic Italian food. I can't wait to come back and try their tiramisu next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" This little restaurant offers some great Italian dishes! My friend and I opted for the seafood risotto, and it was delightful. The prices were reasonable, but we did find the portions to be on the smaller side, hence the slight deduction in rating. Overall though, a pleasant dining experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" First time here, and what an experience! The atmosphere was so lovely, and the owner struck up a conversation with us right away, making us feel like part of the family. Our meals were fresh and bursting with flavor. We had a mix of appetizers and pasta dishes, and I have to say, the tortellini soup was a standout! Be prepared to wait, though, as seats fill quickly!
