    Small cheese pizza
    Lisa Y.

    I've been to Giovanni's in the past, and perhaps I caught them on an off night. The service was great, I called in a takeout order and the pick up process was quick and efficient. The food however was pretty bad. All the pastas were overcooked and mushy. Even my pasta loving kiddos took a couple of bites and couldn't finish it. The pizza was also just ok.

    After a somewhat long drive from Yosemite is stopped at this restaurant for pizza and also I had lasagna. Service was good. Food was very good. Also, I'm a little hard to judge because in the dining room they had some of the restaurants equipment. I don't know if this is permanent or just matter chance this would be the one thing that might take a point they had a good selection of pizza toppings

    Buffalo Hot Wings

    Love the vibes here--great pizza & bar spot to watch football! I love that they had a $7 Hefeweizen on tap. I also tried the $10 Limoncello, which strong & sweet, which got my friend drunk off one haha. Masterpiece pizza was super yummy and filling. Medium size comes with 8 slices that could feed 2-3ppl (4-5 if you get another dish too). Dough is thick and fluffy, and you can't go wrong with a meat combo w/ mushroom & bell peppers! Caesar salad was the other star of the night, very light & refreshing to go with the heavy pizza. Everything else was just alright. Buffalo wings were small and light on sauce. Fettuccine Alfredo was super basic, as if it was a frozen microwaveable dish. Overall, I'd definitely come back for the pizza, salad, and drinks if there's a sporting event to watch that night! I'd pass on everything else there.

    Superb lunch special! From 11am-2pm only. We came here to dine-in and both ordered the dinner salad with balsamic + the 2-topping pizza special. The thin crust was crispy. Delicious!

    Boneless wings
    Michael P.

    Came by here after hiking rainbow falls, and did not disappoint! Food and service was top notch! My group ordered a ginormous pizza and some boneless wings, pretty much fed a party of 6 hungry people. The go-to dish here has definitely got to be the pizza. Boneless wings were okay for what it was. Cheese and bread on the pizza tasted freshly made. Would come here again for some carb load after a long hike.

    Gluten free pizza with eggplant, tofu, spinach, and vegan cheese.
    Erin H.

    Very cute, family pizza joint vibes. The main reason this place gets 5 stars is customer service. Our server was super nice. We ordered a gluten free pizza with eggplant as a topping, not knowing the eggplant is fried in wheat flour. When it arrived and I asked, the server said they use the same eggplant that's used in their eggplant pasta dish (which isn't clear on the menu.) when she learned I'm gluten free, she offered unprompted to Make a second pizza free of charge with olives in place of the eggplant. We kept the original pizza as my partner had taken a slice before I realized. They made sure the pizza came out quick so I could eat at the same time as my partner. Wow! So so nice of them, was really above and beyond. The pizza itself was great! Love that they have a vegan protein option (tofu), which tasted similar to a traditional sausage. They weren't skimpy on the cheese or other toppings, and the crust was nice and crispy. We will definitely be back. Thank you to our amazing server! Also, it gets busy so come early if you don't want to wait (though it does have a ton of seating on the inside).

You can tell real care goes into every single thing they make. It's the kind of food that's hard to find even in LA unless you're paying Erewhon prices. This place inspired me to start making similar organic bowls at home regularly. We're heading back to Mammoth this week for a couple of nights and already planning to try more of the menu. Highly recommend if you're in town, don't miss it!

As you enter you are greeted by someone and then it's open seating and you basically scan the QR code and order thru your phone and pay as well it's easy and convenient. The food options are great and their food is Delicious. Simple concept but very well put together. We had their Beet Salad and their Pizza along with their Pork Belly taco and every bite was satisfying and full of flavor. The salad was the win for me I love a good beet salad, the dressing it was tossed in was just perfection along with the goat cheese. For their drinks I had a Beet infused drink and well it was different but just worked and was strong & also tried a local beer. You order your food and then a server just comes and drops off and if you need anything you just look their way and they help out. The servers were very friendly the ones bringing out the food, it was kind of a bummer toward the end, I always say the staff make the visit enjoyable or not and that can def hinder people from coming back. A simple question was asked about the merch and the answer was just rude.. there was a Main lady by the register and she just didn't have the friendliest vibe or smile at all. We left kinda confused but the food was great and that doesn't change the food review and the vibes here. There was an indoor and outdoor seating and cool views to people watch and loved that it was Dog friendly so many cute pups. They had these mixed drinks in can and Lemme tell you they were AMAZING we took them back to our campsite and was the perfect drink to just hang with. Can't wait to pick some up again.

The food is decent, it's never going to absolutely wow you but it will be sufficient and well priced. This time I tried their mac and cheese, it was cheesy and I liked the type of pasta noodle they used that allowed it to get extra crispy and crunchy with the spiral texture, however it was a little dry and on the blander side for mac!
