    Last experience was not up to quality we’ve come to expect at Giannis. It was a busy night but it was at the restaurant and they may have been under staffed. It took a long time for server to acknowledge us and to get our drinks. The server did not acknowledge we were celebrating a birthday-which they usually do. I think my cocktail was kept in the mixing glass for a long time as it was quite watery. We were not given wine glasses with our somewhat pricey bottle of wine as was the case in all of our previous dinners. My wife’s steak was significantly under cooked. Overall it was a pleasant meal, but just not up to the standards we’ve come to expect

    Gianni's is an excellent choice for great steaks, seafood, other American fare and drinks. It is not inexpensive, but worth it for the quality of food, service and the ambience. In nice weather, their outdoor seating is also great with views of Lake Minnetonka.

    Another great meal at Gianni's! The servers are the best: professional, helpful, attentive and fun! Try the pork chop - it is incredible. Always enjoy the escargot. Of course the steaks are delicious and prepared exactly how you want them. The cocktails are wonderful too. We enjoy doing in a booth as it feels more private than a table for 4. This is a treasure in Wayzata.
