At this wonderful restaurant, what you see is far less than what you get. Giovanni's is a small restaurant tucked into a small shopping center that provides huge enjoyment. From the outside, it looks like a small pizza point. Then you open the menu to find that almost anything that you can think of is there. Even if it's not, a few words to the owners John and Melina and they will cook just about anything you can imagine. Try the Veal Vodka Parmingana, the Pasta Trio or the wonderful Spaghetti with clam sauce. Not only will you enjoy the evening, the portions are so large you'll enjoy if for lunch or dinner the following day

You would have to go to Sicily to get real Italian food as good and authentic as this. Have not had a dish a did not like. Melina even gets me to eat vegetables. The veal is second to none and you don't need a knife to cut it. It's like eating in Mamma's kitchen and you can't beat the price!
As a resturant owner myself, ther's only one place my wife and I go...its is Giovannis place...warm family atmosphere, quality food..quality ingredients...consistenty delicious,always fresh...this is not a pizza palor...it's the authentic flavors of Italy served with love and compassion...a great place to share a meal with friends.
Giovanni’s Place is an oasis of delectable tastes, friendly people, and reasonable prices. Whether indulging in pizza, a basic like lasagna or ravioli, or one of their weekly specials, the consistently high quality of each dish is evidence of the care and attention given at every level. The owners are always available to offer suggestions or to insure a patron’s dietary needs, like gluten-free dishes, are met. The dining room staff is particularly courteous and efficient, as are the young people who make the home deliveries. Off-premises catering is available and reliably good.
