   Our food was delicious! Spiddini and Shrimp Dejonghe. Our waitress was just the right amount of attentive and very nice. I would definitely recommend Gianni’s. Very, very good food and the atmosphere very relaxing.

   Four of us dined at Gianni's on a busy Friday night. Food was delicious. A special plus was that I had requested a booth. One of our party has difficulty hearing an a booth is always quieter. There are very few booths and Gianni's reserved on for us. This made our evening so much more enjoyable. Thank you!

   I recently had the pleasure of dining at Gianni's Cafe, and I can confidently say it was a memorable experience! The food was nothing short of spectacular—the flavors were vibrant, and every dish was beautifully presented. From the freshly baked bread to the mouthwatering pasta, each bite left me wanting more. What truly set Gianni's apart was the outstanding service. The staff was attentive, friendly, and clearly passionate about what they do. They took the time to recommend their favorite dishes and ensured that our dining experience was seamless from start to finish. Overall, I highly recommend Gianni's Cafe to anyone looking for exceptional food paired with impeccable service. I can’t wait to return for another unforgettable meal!

   Our overall experience was wonderful! The grilled calamari was fantastic, the salad was large and the blue cheese dressing was delicious. The chicken francese dish and pasta was delicious with large portions. The service was great and unrushed. I was celebrating my birthday and the complementary dessert was large enough for all of us to split and very tasty! I would definitely return here!!

   It had been awhile since we had dined at Gianni’s and my spouse and I decided to celebrate our anniversary dinner there. We started with cocktails and Sicilian Calamari that was fresh and flavorful. I had a great wedge salad and my wife had a house salad with creamy garlic dressing. Our entrees consisted of the cod special my wife ordered that was topped with crab and served with asparagus. I put together a “make your own pasta” with delicious cavatelli, artichoke hearts, crumbled sausage in a Arrabbiata sauce. We ended with desserts of cannoli’s and pistachio gelato. Our server was Angie and she was attentive, sweet and efficient, even though it was a very busy evening. The quality of food was on point and the service was excellent. We won’t wait as long between visits.

    Food was excellent as usual! Service was a bit slow due to a busy Saturday night but happy to see that they were full.
