    Crispy Eggplant. OMG!!!!
    Jennifer C.

    They have the absolute best date night deal on Groupon right now! I think I paid $47 (w/the code SAVE), and it was an enormous amount of food. Two plates of garlic bread w/dipping oil, appetizer to share, (2) salads, (2) dinners, (2) desserts, and they gave us (2) complimentary sorbets. I personally got the crispy eggplant, which was amazing. It was battered and fried, but still light and tasted like the oil was fresh and clean.

    Went back a second time to try different things, and though many other options were just as delicious as before I was not a fan of the deep fried lasagna. I was iffy about it before I ordered it, but after getting it it's kind of what I feared which was a bit too much breading that distracted from the actual deliciousness of a lasagna. The spaghetti that came on the side that was good.

    Every time I order from here I seem to decrease my rating by a star, but this time it's all the way to 1. I've given them a lot of patience in the past because the food is great and I wanted them to succeed after their remodel, but I've lost my patience. Every single time we order, it's never ready in time despite the fact that it never appears busy. Every single time we've ordered there has only been 1 table seated but for some reason we still end up waiting at least 15 minutes past the estimated pick up time (which is already 30-40 minutes typically). This time was no different. 1 table seated and still had to wait 50 total minutes for our food to be done. This is the third time we've shown up where our food clearly wasn't even started and they had to start it when we got there. There have a serious staffing and time management problem. However, these aren't even the reasons my rating is now 1 star. The reason for that, is that I found not ONE but TWO DIFFERENT hairs in my food!!! I was absolutely disgusted and couldn't even eat my food after opening the container and finding them right on top but caked into the sauce!! I will certainly not be returning here. Even took some pictures as proof. This place will not be open long of they continue operating like this. Looks like the Food Network remodel won't save them if they can't manage their time or even manage to wear hair nets!

    As seen on Food Network's Restaurant Impossible, this place blew me away. The restaurant looks great on the inside. The service and food were phenomenal. The chicken parm is one of the best ones I've ever had. Food presentation was perfect, and everything was delicious. I can't wait to go back. Currently there is no alcohol, but would be nice if they implemented a BYOB policy.

    Super bummed about my order. I ordered chicken parm and lobster gnocchi through door dash. They forgot my lobster gnocchi and the chicken Parmesan was burnt. My favorite part of the meal was the vinaigrette for my side salad. That was at least good!

    Excellent. Excellent. Excellent. Such a cute place, waited on by Francesca herself (so friendly ), wonderful food with great presentation. Everyone go buy the Groupon right now and try it for yourself. You will not be disappointed. You're welcome!!!! Definitely a hidden gem. Go show this local restaurant some love and support!

    Nice welcoming atmosphere and pleasant service. Came here for the first time and enjoyed the food. Note: the garlic bread is wonderful!

    Chicken Parmesan

    Everything was fabulous! The portions were enormous, and service was amazing. The homemade dressings for the salads were also delicious. All the entrees my family and I had were top tier, and when I say top tier I mean the best I have ever had. and there were absolutely no complaints. They even had sorbet palette cleansers in between courses, which may I add were delectable. This place is family owned operated and a must try if you are in the Buffalo area!!

    Chicken Parmesan

    This restaurant: PHENOMENAL!! This is my first review on Yelp and it's well-earned. The appetizer was alright (Ricotta Fritters), but I had the Spaghetti and Meatball and it was, wow. Heavenly. The sauce was a creamy, rich, and sweet but not overly sweet with just the right amount of cheese on it. The meatball wasn't fantastic but hey, meat is meat haha. So it was good. My mom got the Fettucini Tenderloin and ordered it Medium Rare. Wow, the quality of the meat was perfect, juicy, and a wonderful pink. I loved it. Note: she got Spaghetti instead of Fettucini but it was still amazing. My dad got the Chicken Sausage Pasta, it comes with bow tie pasta and sausage that was covered in a wonderfully creamy and tasty white sauce. Splendid. And finally, my sister got the Chicken Parmesan. Holy. Cow. The chicken was divine, the cheese on top fantastic, and the spaghetti on the bottom wonderful. I cannot say enough good about the food here. Fantastic fantastic fantastic. Keep up the great work guys, I'm definitely gonna be back for more with my girlfriend. UPDATE: DESSERT! WOW! Tiramisu: I've had a LOT of Tiramisu in my short 20 years of life, but holy. Crap. That's the best. Lemon Mascarpone: Whoa. I love lemon cake. And THIS! Wwwwwoooooowwww. So. Delicious. Light. Delicate. Amazing. Again, canNOT say enough good. Please please please give this place a chance if you're on the fence. I'm not a bot, I promise

    Food was amazing! Service perfect! They care about the product they put out. Dinner for two worth every penny

The steak arrived and was perfectly cooked and had a very nice char on it. The steak was very flavorful and juicy. Service was impeccable. The restaurant was laid out nicely and there was plenty of space for our large group. Overall, I would say Giancarlo's will be a must visit, for when I'm in Buffalo.

The au gratin potatoes were shredded potatoes. They were okay but definitely not what I would have expected at a steakehouse. I would not order them again. They had carrot cake available for dessert and it was delicious.

I was very happy with my rib dinner/ definitely agreed with all the positive comments I'd read & heard. My only complaint was the loud music/made it somewhat difficult to have a conversation, & the table/ booth for the 4 of us seemed a bit crowded. I'd also suggest giving diners who order ribs, a packet or two of hand wipes.. those sticky yummy ribs were "finger lickin'good!!"
