Charming

Giovanni’s Ristorante invites you to experience Italian cuisine in an atmosphere reminiscent of the old world charm where friends and family gather to enjoy more than just a meal. The homemade pastas, the prime cuts of meat, the fresh fish and farm grown vegetables are carefully prepared to preserve a distinctive flavor of the finest regions.

Specialty wines and spirits complement each course. Guests enjoy tableside conversation with Frances Cannarsa Truant, the “padrona” or perhaps a visit from Chef Randy Truant. The atmosphere is convivial, warm, and aromatic. The staff is seasoned, the service impeccable.

The Godfather Room is the ideal setting for a business meeting.
The Wine Room offers a touch of romance for that special evening.
The Main Dining Room is a perfect place to celebrate a birthday or an anniversary.
There’s a Speak Easy in the back for the ultimate private party.

We have been to Giovanni’s numerous times. We understand it was busy but it took way too long to get our salads and main course. Someone came by to apologize that it was taking so long but we were shocked she didn’t even offer to buy us drinks or dessert to make the experience better. Not saying we would have had dessert but she should have done something for us with the length of time it took.

Another wonderful meal and great service with Chris. Veal Marsala was top notch, scampi was excellent and the filet was good size for the price, perfectly cooked and tender. Lemon dessert was wonderful too. Probably our best dining experience there and have been several times previously. Superb.
