We were greeted as we entered. The atmosphere was pleasant and clean and the staff were very helpful. "The Tour of Italy" was our choice of cuisine and it did not disappoint. The lasagna was excellent. This is definitely the place to go if you want fresh ingredients and hand made meals. read more

We were in Cleburne at supper time and decided Italian sounded good so we picked Giovanni's to stop by and try. We were greeted when we walked in and got to pick out where we wanted to sit. Old School decor but we liked the feel of the place. We got fresh bread (free) that was delicious. My husband ordered a Cesar Salad and he noted the dressed was "potent" and enjoyed his rabbit food . We ordered an XL (18") meat pizza (was supposed to be the stuffed pizza- but I didn't take points off bcs we loved our pizza!) It had a well balance of ingredients and I actually liked the red sauce. We would definitely come back! read more

This is place is such a gem! We love it for date day/night! It's great to get a cup of coffee after dinner in the shop nextdoor too! The artichoke dip is just delicious- although I wish they gave more for the amount of bread they give. The service was great, though! They forgot my salad and offered to take it off my bill or set it up for Togo. read more

I enjoyed eating at Giovanni's for the first time. We had pepperoni with canadian bacon. The pizza was delicious and a large was very big with plenty to take home for lunch the next day. Two of us the pizza with a cold beverage. They sell beer and wine. Italian garden like ambience. Big screen televisions. Family friendly. Parking is plenty. The price was very reasonable and worth it for what we got. We will be going back! read more

It's a rare occasion that we go inside and sit to eat here, 9 times out of 10 it's a take out order and we eat in the comfort of our own home. The setting here is dim, not overly bright, yet not overly fancy. Tables and chairs are a bit outdated, but they work. Regardless of the atmosphere and tables, the food is why folks continue to come here. Amazing food with some friendly staff. Today was our first time with the Antipasti Salad, and it was really good. The little rolls on top were great dipped in marinara sauce. The Milo's pizza is special, Greek touch, no meats, super yummy! If you haven't been, it's time to go! read more

Service was good but the food was very good. We shared the seafood Alfredo which was made from scratch with real cream. The garlic cheese bread and Caprese salad was very good also. Their coffee was served with real cream. What a treat! Give them a try! read more

Giovanni's is the best Italian food in Cleburne. The Chicken Piccata, the Lasagna, even the pizza is unsurpassed. The salad dressings are delicious. My husband's favorite is the Stromboli, but honestly it's all great! Go there hungry. You won't be disappointed. read more

Whenever I have the urge for eggplant this is the place I think of! It is prepared correctly with a delicious marinara and has a topping of mozzarella cheese. The eggplant is not bitter and never overcooked. They also have an eggplant Parmesan Hero sandwich that is delicious as well. read more

After seeing the reviews from various sources we decided to try Giovanni's. It was AMAZING! We were immediately greeted and had our drink order taken. The staff was friendly and attentive. We got our bread and drinks quickly! We ordered the chicken parm and the eggplant parm and both had side salads with the house dressing! It was phenomenal and the portions were HUGE! As we were eating and raving on what we ordered, we had the opportunity to meet the owner as he made the rounds checking on customers. He was so kind and thanked us for coming. I know the place went through an ownership change and that the original owner is back- I can't comment on what it was like under previous management... but today was AWESOME and we will be regulars!! read more

So good! I got the chicken cacciatore, and it was so flavorful. The sauce was amazing on it. Service was quick and friendly, and the place was very clean and welcoming. Will definitely be back. read more

Service is 5 stars, food is 10! Those guys in the kitchen know what they're doing! The only good pizza shop in town. Being from the East Coast, these chains all over the place just don't cut it. This is the real deal. read more

Giovannis - Margherita Pizza and Dipping Oil - Italian Near Me - Cleburne, Texas

Ordered take out, chicken piccata. My husband arrived home after his 20 minute drive and went to eat my delicious dinner. Too my horror I opened a sauce-less container of noodles with chicken and absolutely no sauce, not 1 caper to be found. First time this has happened, so disappointed but to far to go back to have it corrected. We are a regular take out customer 2-3 times per month. I still gave them 3 stars because my husbands dinner was on point. What happened??? read more

Giovannis - A sauce-less container of noodles. - Italian Near Me - Cleburne, Texas

I have ordered from Giovanni's a few times through Doordash. I have had their Fettuccine Alfredo, their Angel Hair with Meat Sauce, their Supreme Pizza, Strombolis, Chicken Picatta, and Tiramisu Their Alfredo can use more lemon in my opinion, their red sauce is awful, the pizza is good and so is the stromboli that they allow you to add veggies to, the piccata can also use just a little more lemon and the tiramisu is also good. I do not know if this Giovannis is the same as the one in Ft Worth. They also give you fresh baked bread with all of their pasta dishes which is nice. read more

Great pizza and service. Have ate here often, and will continue to eat here. Give em a try

The staff was rude. I will never go to this place again. Karaoke was my reason for being there. The staff acted like we were an imposition. Even though we ordered an entree and drinks they acted like we were taking up their time needlessly. read more

I took my Mom to eat here, we had never been there before. We ordered our waters, and when I got up, and went to the bathroom, I saw an almost dead roach on the bathroom floor. As I walked out and looked down the hall towards the kitchen, I saw numerous roaches of all sizes. I was immediately grossed out! I went back to my table and told my Mom that we were leaving. There was no way we were going to eat in that filthy restaurant. read more

We definitely recommend! My husband, son, and I went here last night for the first time. They were pretty busy but were able to seat us quickly. We started off with bread and ordered a side of dipping oil which was so good. They give you butter but the oil is much better with the bread. We also got calamari, which we didn't care for because it was very chewy. Great size though, just chewy. The lobster ravioli was AMAZING. We both ordered. You could see and taste actual pieces of lobster and the sauce was very rich which went well with the ravioli. Definitely a must try! We also got a few pieces of pizza which came out hot and had nice flavor. (Forgot to take a picture though) Our waitress was a really sweet, hard worker. We will be back. read more

We are here on Sunday after church, wait staff was terrible, they were "out" of utensils and out of a lot of menu items. They must have run out of clean drink glasses as well because they were serving drinks in styrofoam cups. Food quality is not the same. My whole family got sick from eating here. Used to be great but we will not be back. read more

I would say all in all I'm strongly believe that Giovanni's restaurant is going to probably one of the best in town the food is awesome you got to come and try it out it's something you'll probably never want to miss but all the work is there I'm pretty awesome and this is Billy Bones who works in the back so when you guys are getting fresh salad and it's crunchy and crispy and tasty it's Billy Bones who's doing it well we hope to see you come through the more the merrier. Don't listen to all the bad reviews some people might want to try and put on there it's only because they all try to get free meals but that doesn't work as we all know but the food is awesome you must come and try it out.

2/10/2015 6:30 are so we got a pizza and a salad this is the second time in the last month , it all was the worse ever.

Took a chance based on reviews and glad we did. We got Cheese Raviolis with Alfredo sauce, grilled chicken Alfredo over vegetables and a meat lovers pizza. The Alfredo was homemade and VERY good! It even rivaled our favorite place back home. The pizza was a thin crust that was very crispy and tasty, even a few hours later whilst snacking. If you are in the area and looking for some Italian food I would definitely recommend trying this place out. Their menu had all kinds of homemade options. read more

was looking forward to trying out this place and was not happy with the meal. The noodles were overcooked and just disappointed in the spaghetti. 3/10. read more

This place used to be such a hidden gem! Great food and friendly owners. I believe they've switched owners or management because it is no longer worth it. The menu looks the same but the food tastes completely different and it's not good. And my gosh the waitstaff was terrible. Our waitress was rude not only to us but her other tables as well. She seemed completely disinterested and lacked basic social etiquette. Sad to see this place go downhill. read more

Dropped in for a late night dinner after driving around town exploring. Honestly we did not have very high expectations, but we were VERY surprised. The staff was super friendly (waitresses and Sam/pizza guy) and the menu options (with some really nice seafood fare) were beyond what we had hoped for. H got the spaghetti and really enjoyed it- he said the pasta was cooked perfectly. I got the shrimp scampi and a couple glasses of Pinot- it was really nice and the shrimp were a great size. DD got the gluten free alfredo and spinach pizza- and she absolutely LOVED it. She said she wanted a candle with the smell infused ... she's said it's officially now her fav GF pizza in the DFW area (which is no small victory). It's about a 30 minute drive, but we will definitely be coming back to town just to eat here. Very grateful for a pleasant end to a long day. read more

The food is great if you ever get it. Seriously, Don't be in a hurry. I had to get my own drinks after waiting 15 minutes to be seated when only a few customers were there. Had to go to the kitchen to get my salad. Food finally came and was really good. BYW..when the food came so did the bill. Strange! read more

Great staff! Good food. Fun Saturday night Atmosphere. Love the 80s music and Country western.

Quaint a little restaurant only a few tables one employee. But I like the pizza it's really good.

Food was about a 4 out of 5 stars. Service was a one out of 5 stars. Ambiance was 3 1/2 out of 5 stars. They had a bunch of tables yet to be cleared. The server was nice enough to clear & clean a table. But that was about the end of her good service. She didn't bother to tell me that they were out of clean silverware until she started bringing food. Instead, she brought a package of little white plastic utensils. A different server brought another customer a larger set of plastic utensils. I had to ask "Lisa" for the larger plastic utensils. She acted like I was from outer space. If you come here, make sure you come early in order to get metal utensils. read more

Awesome pizza!!! Yummy pasta. My go to is usually the pasta but in this case it was the pizza. Great service.

The food and the customer service has always been wonderful. They have always had great food, no matter what we order! Very pleased. read more

Sever was great... food was not don't go on a Monday or Tuesday.... New management food is not the same at all !

Found this spot on a road trip with our kids. You never know what you'll get but the food was AMAZING. (And I'm picky..) Plus it's hard to find restaurants with tortellini Alfredo on the menu and theirs was excellent. Something happened with our order ticket where it didn't get submitted, and we ended up waiting forever for our food. They were apologetic and very accommodating. They took a % off our bill, brought free dessert to the table AND brought out quarters for our 5 kids to use the quarter machines. Phenomenal service. Oh, and I appreciate that you can buy most of their pizzas by the slice so I don't buy a whole pizza for a kid to eat one slice lol We will be back! read more
