Giovanni's had a prime rib deal going on in December for $39. We decided to order it…read more I thought what kind of prime rib we can expect for this low price was puzzling to me, but we tried it. Prime rib is a normally a roasted meat but the friendly waitress asked how we liked it prepared and charred was of the two options presented to us. It was like we couldn't get the usual rare, medium or well-done scope of options. When it arrived, it was not the Prime Rib I was accustomed too but a charred thin steak with overboard seasoning. Being a man and a birthday party honoree, I decided to not complain or send it back as such would have been a very rude, unappreciative gesture to my host, I thought. What I learned here is this is not a place known for Prime Rib or steaks as it is an Italian eatery, stick with pizza and pasta dishes for the best satisfaction. Lesson learned.

Our server was really nice and even though she forgot the extra bread and water fill ups - we were treated nicely. And our food came out in perfect timing. Our food came with a side and also soup so we ordered the lobster bisque. I liked the taste of it but the lobster and onions were diced up and there was so much of it that it just didn't taste good. Onto the entrees I ordered the chicken Marsala and it came with two good sized chicken breasts and I opted for the fettuccine Alfredo on the side. Overall I give it a 7/10 - it hit the mark but wasn't impressive. We also ordered the Parmesan crusted 8 oz filet for $35. We asked for medium but it came out medium rare. Was a bit bland but we ate it. Overall we won't be back for a while but it's a good place to try when you want some Italian from an old school joint.

Modern, classic elegance with an appealing subtle color palette. Simply beautiful! The service was outstanding. They were highly attentive and responded to all of our needs quickly and happily in a very friendly, courteous way, Daisy and her team of bus support were unbelievably attentive. If you go on a day that she is there, ask to be seated in her section. Good service with good food has a tendency to take your experience to atmospheric levels! The bread baskets were filled with rustic Italian bread that was so delicious I thought I was at a trattoria in the rolling hills of Tuscany. Instead of butter, the upscale olive oil dip was very authentic. The menu offers a wide variety of choices for everyone that appeals to carnivores and vegetarians alike. Pastas, beef, pork, lamb and seafood. I asked to substitute one starch for another and the chef made it happen! The food was incredibly fresh. My dining companions has the Maple glazed salmon. The other had the lamb chops. Both raved about the freshness of their meals as well as the perfection to which their dishes were cooked! I had the scallops and substituted the starch with Truffle Fries. The theatrics associated with the presentation of my scallops was breathtaking. It was au flambé! They were so fresh and slightly crusted, i'd never tasted anything that delicious before. Even popular and legendary EAST COAST seafood restaurants could learn a lot about the preparation and presentation of scallops. My meal appropriately mixed textures, tangy tartness and sweetness in the veggie dish consisting of chopped zucchini sweet potatoes and spinach. The way that our meals were plated and presented was sheer "ART," worthy of a museum display. It's a bit pricey, but worth every penny! If I were to recommend an enhancement, I'd recommend some soft background music/jazz or a singer and pianist. It's that type of place. We were celebrating a friend's birthday. The presentation was spectacular! I can't wait to dine al fresco when the weather permits!

The mixed greens and guacamole that coupled it was sheer freshness. The sauce is a hard no for me. Pitars Pinot Grigio was cool but the house paired better. We always top our meals off with the butter cake here. I always start with their signature smoked old fashioned. The service is cool too. No one is ever over the top but they feel like family at this point. The ambiance is 5 stars.

Food is always good when I come. There are different specials on different nights. We play favorites for when we come. This evening was lamb chops on special. Cooked and seasoned perfectly. They give you bread with bruschetta, butter, and an olive tapenade which is delicious. The drinks a really good as well. The chicken parm was okay and came with pasta or veg if your choice. You also get a salad and soup so the prices for your meal are very good. I believe the lamb was on Tuesday and Friday and maybe Saturday has trout which I have had and is delicious. May not need an appetizer. Go and enjoy.

I kills me to give it such high remarks as I'm afraid that more will find this gem, but I have to give them credit, it's really nice, no other way to say it.

We were seated right away, were not rushed, and the wait person took the time to return to our table and show my husband the prosecco we ordered to make sure it was what we wanted. My husband had the 8-oz steak, substituting broccolini for the mashed potatoes and I had the eggplant after a really tasty appetizer, Burrata Pugliese, that included prosciutto. All terrific. Thanks!

I would've given this place 5 stars if our food didn't come out cold…read more They had bread for the table but didn't bring out the oil and cheese until later which confused me. We had calamari and wings for an appetizer, both were delicious. The portions could've been a bit bigger. We ordered the white fish and that was very flavorful and cooked to perfection. We also also ordered the carbonara. It was lacking in flavor and pancetta and came out lukewarm. The wine was ok and the Christmas cocktail was so good! The gelato was good too. The service was a little slow and only maybe 2 of families in the restaurant so I'm not sure why that was. The ambiance was perfect. Such beautiful decor. Overall I enjoyed this placed, they just dropped the ball on the carbonara.
