Reviews for Giovanni's Restaurant in Covina, CA
A neighborhood family owned gem for some legit house made pasta. Scallop risotto was on point & better than Spago in Beverly... Hills! Oh and the refreshing clam linguini, grilled salmon salad, and that bone marrow. service was warm & friendly. We had abirthday dinner there and everyone was happy!! Read more
We had a large group and everyone loved their pastas. However, the two people who ordered salmon said it was kind of dry, but... still flavorful. The outdoor patio seating has a very romantic vibe. All in all, a good experience! Read more
Food is usually good. But today, it was sublime the fettuccine Alfredo with chicken and shrimp was like a song in my mouth. And... the smoked fashion with black cherries was so good I had to go for a second one. If you?re looking for freshly made pasta withan awesome flavor this is the place. Read more
He a bad experience with my waitress, but the bartender and manager were superb! Excellent drink selection, and the food is even... better. Great ambiance. I?d recommend the Cajun pasta if you like spicy, or the scallop risotto if you like seafood. Read more
Took my wife out to this reservation for two. We started with two drinks. They were very watery and basic and very little... alcohol for $15 each. We were very hungry, my taste buds would have thought anything was better than it was.... I ordered themeatball appetizer, they were extremely small which didn't bother me so much because I prefer quality of quantity. Four SMALLmeatballs for $15. The first bite into the meatball, I couldn't believe they would even serve this to people. Kind of blandbut sour? Weird. Also extremely dry! The meatball was actually a bit chewy. Meatballs from my kids spaghetti-o's we 1000xbetter. I usually judge an Italian restaurant on the sauce and their meatballs. The sauce was good that was over themeatballs. This is the only reason for 2 stars. The rustic Italian bread that was put on the table also tasted like it hadbeen out on a counter for too long. It was dry. Definitely didn't seem to be baked there. Since the meatballs were as bad asthey were, my wife and I decided to cancel ordering anything else and just paid and left instead of eating dinner there.

Celebrated a birthday here. The service was great. The food was freshly made with reasonable prices. I will definitely come back... again. Read more
Overwhelmingly mediocre. Charcuterie board is basically a costco pack. Wine and bread both seemed stale and slightly sour.
