Giovanni's Italian Eatery

Late night stop over here. TBH I was intrigued by the google description of “classic Italian dishes such as lasagna … AND THAI FOOD”. We had to stop by to check it out. Being the biracial couple that we are, we ordered the crowd favorite mushroom chicken chardonnay (classic red and white sauce) and Tom Kha soup. Both are so delicious without too rich and stuffy. We were the last table and enjoyed our chat w the owner. We love connecting with locals when we travel especially the Asian diaspora. They’re clearly doing well w take out but if you’re an out of towner passing by, try to stop at this place rather than fast food.

Service was excellent for one guy, seeming to do everything !! Very happy and friendly! Lunch was very good!! I had the manicotti, and my husband had pizza!! But we're served hotel and delicious!! Will definitely be back!

I had a pizza, ravioli, and chicken Parmesan. Everything was hot, delicious, and well worth it. Definitely will visit again and refer to friends. Edit: I took my family a second time and it's incredible quality. Do not sleep on this amazing food

Giovanni's is a wonderful Italian restaurant. It has a wonderfully lit mood, nice soft radio in the background that you can't even notice unless nobody is talking, and delicious food. I would come here everyday if I could but I live in the town over and I couldn't afford the gas bill. Wonderful food and wonderful service. The owner is a nice man and will make sure your night is a good one.

I love the calzones here! I just melt when I order their lasagna! They even have Thai food and I must admit, it is very good. The staff is personable and friendly. And the prices average. You can dress up if you want, but there's no dress code. Overalls are allowed and just as welcomed as stilletos! So go ahead & give them a try!

Been coming here for more than 15 years, previous owners and current owners kept the ambience and recipes the same adding a few Thai dishes to the menu. I've never been disappointed with the service or the food! I would recommend this place to anyone.

What a delightful Italian restaurant! The service here is second to none. The staff was not only attentive but also incredibly passionate about the food they serve. They took the time to explain each dish, which made our dining experience truly special. The food was heavenly, with every bite bursting with authentic Italian flavors. The ambiance was charming and cozy, with the soft glow of candlelight and Italian melodies in the background. I can't wait to return and explore more of their menu. A genuine Italian culinary experience!

Good, hearty, Italian food. Everything we had was delicious but their lasagna is definitely a must have.

I like coming here for their thai food. Something different for sure. The dish I had was spicy but I love spicy food. Would love to taste more of their dishes for sure. It is pricey but once in a while is awesome.

Very generous portions. The mushroom olive lasagna was excellent, Ceasar salad was perfect.

Orders Med Pepperoni pizza. Looked great in the box. Has ok flavor. Not sure if they are using previously frozen crusts or what but I do not like how the crust easily breaks off from the main pizza. Minimal grease and not much flop. Definitely not worth 17$.

The salad wasn't very good. The italian dressing just tasted like oil and has little to no flavor. I also got fettuccine Alfredo and it tasted like oily cheese. The guy that was there was nice, the food just wasn't my favorite. I just feel it was very bland for what I paid. The fettuccine Alfredo was $17 and it wasn't worth that... not trying to be rude I just wasn't very impressed. Again, the guy working there was very nice. They also don't have a lot of sides and all you get is salad.

Better at Thai food than Italian. If you want the real deal go to Frugatti’s in Bakersfield.

We ordered 2 fettuccine chicken Alfredo’s, it was very disappointing. The chicken was hard, had black spots, and some pieces were green. The pasta sauce was like oil and did not taste good. Would not really recommend.

Price is like eating at the Olive garden but without the flavor scenery or costumer service. The meatballs are pure salt and the noodles were over done. Owner is rude was told to leave after sitting in my car for 5min wanting for my wife.

Where do I start?…( I have to put 1 star, because it won’t let me put 0 !!!!) We ordered Ice tea, took a drink. It was obviously OLD and tasted bad. Ordered food also. Well, we heard stuff being put in a Microwave and started. Needless to say, we canceled our order and left. If I wanted a $14.00 frozen lasagna that was going to be microwaved. I would have gone to the store myself and got a Family size lasagna for the same price! We will Never go back!…
