UPDATE 2/6/17 HOURS OF OPERATION: MON - FRI 11 AM until 7:30 PM SAT, NOON - 8 PM SUN - CLOSED I parked out front today at 10:50 AM thinking they'd open at 11 ...don't know what made me think that, but I did. I began reading a review which said they were closed on Sunday and Monday so I decided to leave since the doors weren't opening and no one was anywhere in sight at 10:58. As I turned around, I saw lights coming on and decided to park in back and walk around. LUCKILY, They were opening and I walked in, noticing the painted window that had the hours posted. I've been craving their Gyros for over a week now, and I am ECSTATIC they're open today!!! ************************************** Deserves 10 STARS!! We rode by this place a hundred times and said one day we'd stop. Today we did. The food was fabulous and the service was excellent. My hubby ordered the beef/lamb gyro and I ordered the chicken. It was so delicious, I ordered one to go! Love the old school music and dining atmosphere. We will be back! read more

Giovannas - Hours of Operation - Pizza Near Me - Phenix City, Alabama

We're simply dumb for living here for over three years and not eating here sooner. My husband and I both had calzones that were amazing! They're also huge, so we're already looking forward to having the leftovers for dinner tonight. We ordered the children's portion of spaghetti for our five year old. He ate it like it was going out of style, and he's also still got enough for dinner tonight. The hummus and pita were fantastic as well. It's some of the best hummus that I've had since moving to Georgia. The service was perfect. The staff was super friendly and our waitress was awesome. She didn't hover over us and bother us through the entire meal, but she was always around if we needed something. From the very beginning up until walking out, there's absolutely nothing bad that I have to say about our visit. We will definitely be back many more times in the future! read more

This is absolutely the best pizza in town. The crust is amazing. All of the ingredients are fresh and delightful. Each pizza is made fresh to order. If you haven't tried it you don't know what you are missing! It's divine pizza read more

I've been searching for a pizza place like this for a long time now. You know when you watch a movie or tv show and see a New York style pizza in it and think to yourself "wow, that looks really good...I wish I could find a place that has pizza like that." Well this place has it. The dough I the best part. It's fairly thin and crispy, but still foldable. I ordered the pepperoni classic and I couldn't have been happier. When I went in to pick up my pizza, everyone was very friendly. Highly recommend!!! read more

Food was pretty good but the restaurant was so gross. The seasonings on the table were grimy, the menus were grimy and the bathroom was disgusting. Hopefully the kitchen was clean. read more

We found this place on a whim while visiting my friend's son at Fort Benning. Pizza was fabulous!! We had never tried plantains before. They were so good! read more

Great customer service. Very polite and very helpful. Braiden is very kind. Thank you so much. Great food and awesome service.

Giovannas - Calzone yummy!!!! - Pizza Near Me - Phenix City, Alabama

Awesome!!!! Food is good and fresh tasting. We had the calzone, which is as big as the plate! The gyro was full of flavor with meat bursting out of the pita bread. We left full, sleepy, and satisfied!!! read more

Giovannas - So good. The Calzones are huge! Too much for one person. Just perfect - Pizza Near Me - Phenix City, Alabama

Love this place. Great pizza, the 4 meat is my favorite. The Cuban is second to none and it is more like a two meal sandwich.

I called in and ordered a large pepperoni and bacon pizza. The pizza was ready within 15 min. This was my first time coming here so I let him know that. He promised me that I'd be a regular and I'm pleased to say he was right. The pizza is really good I'm glad I went. It's has a thin crust but it's so good. Give it a try. read more

Was in town for work and picked Giovanna's for Pizza. Ordered a 14" pie with pepperoni and sausage. Pizza was fantastic. Nice thin crust with plenty of toppings. Was not disappointed. Will be happy to eat there again. Friendly staff and good price. read more

Food was good-however the service was horrible. Had to ask for drinks to be refilled. Wait staff was tuned into the tv broadcast rather than the customer. I would've rated lower had the food not been decent. The hummus and pita were marginal. Edited: I had this as a 2-star review. However, upon leaving one of the cooks in back yelled across the restaurant to the clerk, "do we have any ant spray." We won't be back! read more

We have driven by this place a few times and saw that the place was empty. Despite that first fact we went in. The hummus was mehh it was microwaved with olives on top. It didn't look like the picture for sure. Joey ordered the Greek pizza it was good he said not the best. Well that was all fine and dandy until my drink was knocked over by the waitress putting the food in front of me. I know it was an accident but no apologies were offered till we got our bill. The entire bill. I was soaking wet from sweet tea all over my legs and lady parts. We had other things to do in town and driving back home to shower and change wasn't on the agenda. Nothing was done to ensure we will return. The food was good but the service wasn't. 2 stars for food. 0 stars for experience.. read more

Giovannas - Looked microwaved wasn't tasty.. - Pizza Near Me - Phenix City, Alabama

No breastfeeding and having to cover baby's head with a dish rag is wrong. Do not come to this place and try to find another pizza place. By the way it's not one of the best pizza places here anyways. This is not a misunderstanding by restaurant owners so don't be trying to cover up and make an excuse. read more

Oh Emm gee!! Their Greek Pizza was awesome!! Brought back memories of us living in the North End of Boston. Needs to have some music though. read more

Outstanding New York Style Calzones, Strombolis, and Pizza. I have been looking for a good pizza place down here in the Columbus, GA area for a while. I had no idea this place even existed until I drove by. Things to know: 1) Cash Only...and there is no ATM in the restaurant 2) Not open on Sunday's...think Chic-fil-a 3) They close at 8:00 p.m., but they stop serving at 7:30 p.m...get your order in before they turn off the ovens 4) Their phone is never connected...so you got to order in person 5) The food is awesome! read more

Had the supreme calzone and it came in a large pizza box. I ordered it carry out. It is awesome! read more

Giovannas - Yummy gyro!! - Pizza Near Me - Phenix City, Alabama

I read all of the reviews and my family was very excited to eat here. I was not expecting the self-serve atmosphere. We sat at a table then realized we had to order at the counter. Once we were given our cups for tea (if you wanted soda you bought a $1.00 refrigerated can), I proceeded to fill our cups myself. I did this using ice from a cooler and tea in pitchers. I am pretty sure this is a health risk. The pizza was good, and their menu had a lot of options. read more

Best New York Pizza in town also many other menu items including appetizers officer Cuban and Philly cheesesteaks

This is a fantastical place to eat. Not "fast food" - they take the time to do it fresh and right. Get the Cuban and be prepared to take some home. Gyros are delicious and packed with meat and all the right goodies read more

My son has been dying for an authentic meatball sub. We get here and this dude orders a Gyro. LOL. Well I order a Stromboli supreme. Not like Italian and greek food thats home made vs manufactured.

The Stromboli is massive LOL. read more

Got a small bacon pizza and a meaty calzone. Both were very good, but we did like the pizza more. It came out to be $19. Would definitely come back for the pizza. Everything is freshly made so it does take some time. read more
