Giovanni's Pizzeria & Kitchen

Been there twice. The first time was pretty decent. The 2nd time was pretty bad. The server treated my wife like she didnt exist. Also, bread was terrible. We didnt order anything else because of the service.

Update- Wait staff has turned over since new management and is not quite as friendly as in the past. That said, the food remains outstanding. Don't even look at the menu, just the specials. Have now gone on multiple days of the week and the different specials get better and better. Dishes with cheese are, by nature, a tad saltier than I prefer but oh my, how tasty. Have been going here for several years. The Giovanni brothers have apparently sold all their restaurants but it appears that the new owners/management company have kept most of the wait and kitchen staff. My mom has gotten the Eggplant Parm every time and loves it. I look forward to the specials, especially Thursday's Chicken gorgonzola. We get dinner sized portions which leaves us with an extra meal or two to take home. Salad is huge and always fresh. The bread is awesome (if you like garlic) but my only complaint is that is almost always arrives between the salad and the main meal. Too late to have with the salad and then no longer hot and fresh with the meal. I have never tried their pizza because I have found what I like. Addendum: had the chicken fransces the other day. Excellent taste, just the right amount of lemon to it. Two fairly large pieces and this was their lunch portion. I took half home and added mushroom and spinach to it which really completed it. I will probably have to pay a surcharge but will ask them to do the same next time I am there. The chef is usually amenable to simple modifications to his dishes such as that, or, using less salt. Even under new management, this remains my favorite italian restaurant here.
