Visit Date: Nov 13 2024While traveling for work in the Orlando area, I visited this restaurant because it was in the same area as my hotel and it had good Yelp reviews. It was an excellent decision.I sat at the bar, ordered a beer, and placed a carry out order. The bartender, Jonathan, was very personable and helpful. He helped me select the lemony chicken dish, and suggested getting it with linguine for my pasta selection. So of course I did that. I was not in any rush, I enjoyed a clean and fun atmosphere, the place was busy, and everyone was having a good time. It was like a neighborhood joint, even though it was in a strip mall, between a Publix and a hotel. It was great. My food was prepared quickly, and I took it back to the hotel. It was a remarkable amount of food. It must have weighed 5lbs. There were three chicken breasts, a ton of pasta, a LOAF of garlic bread, and a salad. This was all for $20. They added paper plates, plasticware, Parmesan, and crushed red pepper. All of this because he knew I was staying at a hotel. Pretty remarkable. This was pretty much a family style portion of excellent food. This place is a gem, and it's particularly special to me when I am traveling, and the employees make suggestions and take great care of me!

This is a must-visit for anyone craving authentic Italian cuisine. The ambiance is warm and inviting, perfect for a family dinner or a casual date night. The menu offers a wide variety of traditional Italian dishes, and every meal we tried was exceptional. From the rich, flavorful pasta to the perfectly baked pizza, everything was cooked to perfection.The staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our meal. The portions are generous, and the flavors are authentic, making it a great spot for anyone who loves Italian food. I highly recommend Giovanni's for a memorable dining experience in Lake Nona!

The good: pastas had great portions, very tasty and well done. Garlic knots were good.The bad: DO NOT ORDER A "Margherita" pizza from here. I could not believe my eyes when I opened the box. For $17 it felt like an insult.

Once you enter, you are greeted by the host, the host was very friendly. I asked about a coupon I had and they accepted it. At the booth, they were very nice and patient while we were looking over menu. I ordered two kids meal;slice of cheese and a drink. For myself, I ordered a bruschetta. The food did not take too long to arrive,it was good. I was surprised of the amount I had on my plate. They have three TVs next to the bar, so you can enjoy while eating. I came in before the rush-hour of dinner time, so it was not too busy and not too loud.

Pizza seems like a good idea always because, well- pizza! Haven't met many I didn't like so I'm sad to report that the one I had here didn't meet or satisfy any of my many pizza experiences. The pizza photographed beautifully, but sadly the flavor was absent.

I want to start by saying the service here was amazing. From the hostess to my waitress! I dined here with a coworkers while on a work trip and the food was great too. I loved the starter of garlic cheese bread. Phenomenal! I got the classic chicken Alfredo and I would get it again! Lots of grilled chicken on top and the most creamy sauce. Fantastic!!! I chose this place because it was next door to my hotel and did not disappoint. It's located in a Publix plaza so ample parking!
