Lovely Italian spot. Great bottomless brunch price, live old school music, delicious food. One of my favorite places and right next to prospect— you can’t beat it😊

I’m so happy Giovanni’s is back! I had the pleasure of attending the reopening at their new location across the street from the old one. The atmosphere is amazing, the staff are friendly and welcoming, and the food is just as incredible as I remembered. The new décor is so classy and elegant—it really enhances the dining experience. I’m thrilled you’re back—congratulations! Cheers to many more meals and memories :)

Such a charming restaurant 😍. Went there on a Friday night with some co-workers. We were greeted by a band made up of 3 guys, the staff were so friendly and helpful. The restaurant was dimly lite, it had a romantic feel to it, it's the perfect spot for a date. The food was absolutely delicious, there were enough options on the menu, you couldn't possibly go hungry. I had the salmon with sautéed spinach and roasted potatoes. For dessert, I had the chocolate mousse cake. Everything tasted so good. There was a special dessert, it was bunt cake soaked in rum with cannoli cream, i was delicious. I will definitely go back to Giovanni's and I would definitely recommend it to my friends and family

I came here for the first time yesterday for brunch because of all the rave reviews I read about this place on Facebook. I was surprised that the place was pretty empty when I walked in. It was probably because they just opened up. They have a pretty impressive menu and prices are very reasonable for the amount of food that is given. The only thing that I had a slight issue with is the Bloody Mary that came with my meal. Don't get me wrong, it was very tasty, but it seemed to lack in alcohol, which to me is the most important part of a Bloody Mary. I figured the drinks have to be a bit mild during brunch since the waitstaff keeps refilling your glass throughout the meal and they don't want people drunk early in the morning. My waitress was very friendly, bubbly and attentive. The restaurant itself is very clean and pretty. The food came out quickly with no wait time and it was really good, but it just needed a tad more salt. The bathroom "bagno" is also a bit on the dinky side. Overall, I enjoyed everything and look forward to stopping by again for a quick bite. Edit: I have to add an appendix to my original review since I have dined here several times since my first visit. The food and service is absolutely outstanding. I came here again for brunch and for dinner. Everything I have eaten was utterly fantastic. Even though we are in the middle of a pandemic and we have to eat outdoors, you feel comfortable with your surroundings while you eat. I will continue to support this wonderful restaurant. ❤

I love this restaurant.. the food is always good. The service is attentive without being pushy and servers hanging around all the time like creepy stalkers. They checked on you frequently but left you to enjoy your meal. And the meal was DIVINE. Its a neighborhood restaurant so expect the residents to reflect the diversity (or lack of) in the neighborhood... but I've never had an issue there and they are warm with all the guests.. on the Saturday i went to brunch there was a live jazz band. Nice stuff . Where can you get a 2 course brunch for 18.95? And the food is FILLING and DELICIOUS

We wanted to get a little taste of everything that was recommended. Some appetizers I would definitely order again and some I would not try again. Overall it was a pleasant experience. Good atmosphere and good food. The cocktails were delicious and a great selection. I would definitely go again

What a great local experience in Brooklyn! Staff squeezed us in last minute and I’m so happy they did. Live music, families chatting and laughing together while servers whisked around the room with plates of home cooked Italian American staples. It’s like the Brooklyn Italian restaurant this see on tv or in a movie. Verdict: would return and recommend!!

Really good food, but the service was almost nonexistent. We saw our waiter 3 times. No follow up, no refill, one forgotten item. It was bad. But, the menu is interesting and the food is better and more unique than your usual Italian restaurant.

Came here with my fiancée for her birthday and had an overall pleasant dining experience. We decided to take advantage of the plentiful outdoor seating. Host and server were very attentive and food came out within a reasonable time. The food itself was very flavorful, though we both had hoped that the portions were larger. Dessert was a good size however and was very good. The only other thing to note is that there is a credit card surcharge added, but if you bring cash you can probably avoid this. Overall a nice dining experience.

Used to come here all the time when it was at the other location, and was so happy to hear that they came back! We did the bottomless brunch on Valentine's Day weekend, with mimosas. The food was amazing, the portions were much larger than expected, and the drinks were coming at a good pace. Also want to shout out our waitress for paying attention to the allergy note we made on the reservation. After she took our order, she came back and mentioned one of the meals might have cross-contamination and wanted to double check! We ended up changing that order. Overall it was a great experience!
