Definitely do not recommend!! I ordered a turkey sub with a select few condiments and all they did was slop it on the bread and call it good then I called to have it remade and they did it, but turned out worse than the first one. They put extra of all the condiments and didn’t spread them out and hardly any meat or cheese. And I also got mozzarella sticks and they were not even fully cooked. Will never catch me ordering anything from them again.
Ordered in 2 nights in a row. The owner was very easy to work with over the phone and remembered my hotel and room from the previous night. He gladly accommodated multiple requests for special dinner items and the food showed up on time and was hot. The food itself was genuine Italian style and the ingredients all tasted fresh. I got the stuffed shells and sausage the first night and a bacon burger with crumbly blue cheese on the second night. Cooked perfectly medium rare as ordered.
Good service. I am not a fan of the interior nor their thicker crust on the piece, but its good. The service is somewhat quick, menunis alright and they are offering curb pick and delivery. I wish they would have some automated system to let you know when the food is ready for pick up.
The fish fry was either 100% frozen before cooked, or they don’t know how to cook fish. I was so disappointed receiving this because they show that their fish fry had an award :( the fish itself was dry and watery at the same time and the breading was hard. The mac and cheese was so mushy but had good flavor. The curly fries were good but I’m sure those were frozen as well.
Overall it was a good experience. The food states very good. The staff was professional and they were following strict protocols during the pandemic to make sure they are safe and their clients are safe as well. The waiting was exactly like mentioned. The prices are overall relatively higher than competitors and thats the only inconvenience, but the food was worth it.
In the past, my family has purchased a make your own pizza kits. The kids loved creating these. Today, my kids have friends over and they wanted to make pizzas, so I called to order some kits. Unfortunately, they have taken them off the menu. Hopefully, they’ll return to the menu soon.
Ive ordered from here three times and I have been disappointed every time. First time I ordered cream cheese poppers with our order and received cheddar poppers. Second time ordered a salad with our order and never received it. Third time ordered our pizza crispy and again received a soggy pizza. The rest of the order was bland. Its sad that I would recommend the maple city bowl food over an Italian restaurant. Not to take anything from the bowling alley because their food it delicious. If your looking for poor service and mediocre food this might be the place for you.
Stopped here because I was craving lasagna and Italian villa was closed. Really glad I tried it. Been eating their pizza forever ( delicious) , but had never tried any of their entrees. Lasagna was delicious and its a big portion for a very good price. I will definitely be trying some of their other entrees.
Called at 6:20 ordered for 6 people. 4 fish frys were missing thier sides. We called back minutes after they were dropped off at 7.15 after i had time to go threw it at 7 18 i called to fix. Its now 8.40 pm they havent arrived and my guest left annoyed. They always take awhile to recieve typically its good food and worth the wait. It its a friday and thats exspected but almost 9pm not fixed and a 89$ bill kinda sucks
Everything here looks awesome, and I ate here two nights in a row while in Hornell. Wish I couldve try the buffalo wings and the pizza, but decent dental work necessitates eating soft foods for awhile. That being said the lasagna was worth going back for a second night! Great staff, very fair prices and great quality food!
So ive ordered from these guys 3 times.The last 2 times i ordered thr chicken wing pizza.Well. Both times the chicken on the pizza tasted so bad like it was spoiled. Im pretty upset cuz theyre pizza isnt cheap. But if its that much. It should definitely not taste like the toppings are spoiled.
I placed my order for delivery, I believe all was good to go was told 30mins. As I sit here waiting the phone rings. WE DO NOT DELIVER TO THERE YOU WILL HAVE TO PICK IT UP OR DRIVE DOWN THE ROAD TO MEET US. what the hell? Im not even 6 miles away? Not to mention the person that took my order did not seem to have a problem with the address!
We wisconsinites take great pride in our beer-batter fish. The wilderness. The Wisconsin Dells. Friday night fish. Thats Wisconsin. All Im allowed to say in order to keep my Wisconsin citizenship is that Ive never had a better or more perfect looking fish delivered to a hotel than Giovannis just did!
I love this place! It is the best authentic Italian Restaurant in the area. Their sauce is enticing, always the same, and once you taste it youre hooked. Youll be back! They have the best chicken wings, too. Very meaty and tasty. The salad bar is great, a lot of variety. When people ask, wheres the best place to eat? My answer is always the same, Giovanni s in Hornell !
Three times weve ordered from here and three times its been inedible. While the employee in the phone and the delivery driver are friendly, the bread is stale, items requested are left off and items requested too be left off are loaded on. Every time. Contacting them will just get you ignored. I figured everyone has bad days but three times in a row of inedible food is absurd. Huge waste of money.
The interior and exterior havent been changed since what looks like the 70s...Salad bar had very little on it but the their pizza is really good.. so are the hot wings (sometimes).. staff is young and always curtious I would recommend to get your order to go though. .
Well I ordered chicken parm and it started all pasta dishes come with garlic bread it was 9.50 only when she brought it out all I got was a piece of chicken no pasta and no garlic bread 🤬 who the hell wants to pay 9.50 for a piece of chicken !!!! Also ordered appetizers we got when they brought our food out instead of before ! I know where not to eat again that’s for sure !!!!!!
These Guys/Gals who work here are Amazing!! NO ATTITUDES, etc. when you Need your order a certain way due to Not being able to eat like Everything that comes on your order, Even if They Screwed it up, by Accident, NO ATTITUDE, Always a Smile and an Im Sorry, let us ReDo that for you..They have even, at almost Close, Delivered me food, made wrong, Took back, Remade & Brought Back to me, AFTER closing....AWESOME!!!! Thanks Giovannis Workers, Your ALL GREAT with Wonderful Customer Repor!!

2022-05-04I order from here often. The food is good. The staff is awful. I ordered for delivery tonight and I only ordered 2 dozen wings. I called an hour after I ordered because it doesnt take an hour for 2 dozen wing to be cooked/delivered. When I asked what was going on the girl on the phone said there were 12 other orders being delivered including mine. I said my food would probably be cold by the time it got here. She said all the food got done at the same time so it would probably still be warm. I work at a restaurant and this is not very efficient. I told her this and she said okay great I hope you have a good night and hung up the phone. Needless to say I wont be ordering from here again and I hope other people wont either. Also, my food was cold when it arrived.

2022-03-15Nice pizzeria. The thin crust is still pretty hearty. The Salad bar has all my faves. I would go back just for the salad bar and bread sticks deal for eight bucks. Friendly and efficient staff

2022-05-31We went in and ordered Sunday evening. We were told the pizza would be about 15 mins. We sat down and planned to eat in the dining room. We watched other families come and sit for dine in. They ordered after us and some how still managed to get their pizzas before us. I then watched my pizza sit on the counter waiting for someone to grab it and bring it to us for at least 10 mins. I did finally walk up and ask for our pizza. They were very short and rude with us when I asked them to just box it up so we could take it with us, stating if I was just going to take it with me I should have ordered it to go! The sad thing is the food is pretty good, but the staff is quite rude!

2021-12-09Moved recently back to NY and was excited to get real NY style pizza again. Have been twice and it is good pizza. Today sadly, I went to get a few slices and it was cold. They were not busy, most of the workers standing around talking. But the slices were not fresh. Obviously been sitting a while. The first time it was good. Hopefully it was a fluke.

2021-10-05Sad, 30 plus dollars to the garbage.Terrible food, horrible OLD SAUCE, chicken parmigiana totally bad, besides having paid for a drink and NO DRINK not any utensils to eat…Living and learning, I should have given that money to someone in need.

2022-03-27We order delivery at least 2 times a week... Dont like the hours and the closed days...and closing the dining room at 8:00 when you close at 11 is just rude patriotism......

2021-09-03This is the best restaurant with the most delicious pizza I’ve ever had. NYC quality in a small town. The owner and his daughter are super friendly and bend over backwards to accommodate customers. Love everything I’ve had here from pizza to lasagna to wings.
