Love the atmosphere here. Family owned and it shows. They take care of their customers as if you were family. Food was excellent. We will definitely return.... read more

This is one family run neighborhood Italian restaurant. It's more like a hit or miss kind of place for me. I usually order pasta Trio which is veggie lasagna, chicken parmesan and Alfredo fettuccine pasta. The issue is always with chicken parmesan which will be very good sometimes while other times it just seems burnt chicken. Veggie lasagna is okay and I like their pasta. My wife likes their tortellini pasta as well as fettuccine in pink sauce. Also, since during lunch time it's just the couple running entire place by themselves, service gets affected a lot when they have 4-5 tables or more. I would still go there since kids love pasta and we do too. read more

We were excited to see that Giovanni and Nina had reopened a restaurant here in Bee Cave so we stopped in for lunch. Greeted with smiles and hugs, we were seated immediately and received our selected drinks and complimentary bread knots. There were olive oil and vinegar as well as butter pats on the table. We ordered - I had the Antipasto Salad while the others had the lunch ravioli, one with marinara and one with vodka sauce. Each lunch special included a salad so one had a Cesar and the other, a house salad with ranch. The salads were fresh and colorful and were followed pretty quickly by the main courses. The lunch portions of ravioli looked small but were tasty and very filling. The antipasto salad was HUGE! (see image) The meats and cheese were apparently rolled into logs then sliced and added to the dinner-plate-sized salad in pinwheels and accompanied by tomatoes, shredded cheese, and black olives (watch for the pits!). DELICIOUS!!! We plan to return soon - glad they're back! read more

Giovannis table - The huge and delicious Antipasto Salad - Pizza Near Me - Bee Cave, Texas

I came and sat outside. And I waited and waited. No server came to get my order. Nobody acknowledged I was there. I would have preferred to write about their food but the service was literally non-existent. There was only one table occupied inside, so it wasn't that they were busy. The lady in the kitchen made eye-contact with me so I assumed she would ask for my order but no. I really wanted a local Italian restaurant as an option and there is one down Cuernavaca with excellent pasta called Patrizis or something like that. read more

Very nice cozy family restaurant. The owner and his wife are friendly. Food is great. Authentic. Parking is easy. We ordered hot wings, lasagna and spaghetti with mushrooms and garlic oil. We will come back for sure. read more

Yelp failed me this time. Yelp is usually pretty reliable, but stopping here was a regretful decision. We had spent the day at Hamilton pool and Reimers Ranch. We wanted to stop for a quick dinner on our way home, and this place sounded good. Unfortunately, it wasn't. There was something really wrong with their marinara sauce. It definitively tasted off. It was sour. All 4 in our party agreed. My kids ordered kids' spagehetti and meatball dinners. My daughter said, "Mom, I'm hungry, but im not eating this!" She loudly told us it was "disgusting. " My husband was shushing her, and I thought she was just being a bit dramatic. I asked what was wrong with it. She said it tastes "bitter." I tasted it, and she was correct. It tasted awful. Like it may have gone bad. My husband tasted it and was immediately concerned that we would get sick from it. My son took his headphones off, and we asked him what he thought of his dinner. He said it wasn't very good. I asked him what was wrong with it. He said that the meatball was okay, but the sauce was terrible. He also had only eaten his meatball. We told the server. A different one gave us the bill. It was like we had said nothing. My husband told them he wanted to speak with someone about the sauce. They tried to convince us it was perfectly fine. That this was their normal sauce. No way. Something was wrong with that sauce. Whether or not they admit it. All four of us can't be wrong. We have never had an issue with marinara sauce anywhere else. I mean, it's marinara. It's pretty hard to screw up. My husband had a stomach ache later on. He had consumed some of the same sauce on his meatball parm sub. The meatball, bread, and cheese had masked the sauce flavor enough that he had thought it just wasn't that good of a sandwich. When you tasted the sauce alone, it was apparent that something was really off. Luckily, he only had a stomach ache. Nothing more. The servers were all very nice, but they did leave us waiting for very long stretches. Especially when we asked to speak to someone about the sauce. Oh, and they charged us $20 for a penne vodka with onions and mushrooms. No meat. Meanwhile, other meatless pasta dishes were $14 or less on their menu. We had seen a photo on Yelp of this dish, and the waiter said he could have them make it. We should have asked how much. Oh, well. After the second time we brought up the sauce, they did take off one of the 2 kids' meals off of the bill. Mind you, both of my kids each only ate their meatball. We hadn't actually asked them to remove anything from the bill, but I would have personally taken both kids' meals off if I had been them. The kids' meals also had rang up $10 each, even though the menu listed them as $7.50 each. The extra fun part was that we had to stop and buy our kids' dinner when we left because they were still hungry and the point of dinner out was not to cook. Ridiculous. We won't be back. read more

Food was amazing! Staff is really on top of things and very polite. I had the eggplant parmigiana and I am pretty picky with that but it was real good. Can't wait to go back! read more

Ordered lasagna bolognese. When our order came out there was no bolognese just tomato sauce. We asked and was told this was the bolognese sauce. Plus tasted like salt. First time and last time. Was not impressed at all either by the food or the staff. read more

I gave 3 rather than 2 stars because I only tried 1 dish. if I try another dish and it is ok I will stick with 3 stars.. but i really feel its more like 2. lousy bread (and no butter). I won't be coming back. read more

This is great food, in a quaint little restaurant. The people who serve you are very nice, and I highly recommend this spot.

This is such a friendly, family-owned REAL place to enjoy a delicious casual Italian meal with friends and family. Everything in the menu is scratch kitchen made. New deck is perfect for fall weather. Lots of regulars which tells you a lot about consistency. Enjoy! read more

Great authentic Italian! So glad we decided to give this place a try despite some of the negative reviews. Wonderful service, and absolutely AMAZING food. Me, my husband, and my 2 kids all agreed its some of the best food we've ever had, and I am a foodie so that says a lot. You can definitely tell that this food is home made with love and tradition. read more

What a find.... Family run lil Italian joint that feels like it should be in the 5 boroughs. The service was friendly and warm. The food was delicious. I had the trio w Alfredo fettuccine, chicken parm, and lasagna bolognese.... It was all good. Desert was house made tiramisu that was amazing. The price was reasonable. We look forward to a future visit where we will try the chicken Florentine and gnocchi...... read more

Small restaurant worth checking out. I had shrimp scampi, which was light on shrimp but big on flavor. Definitely order that again. Started with some decent bread too; you can ask for oil or butter. My mom had a sausage sub, she really enjoyed; well toasted. Also had a stuffed mushroom appetizer. It was swimming in Vodka sauce; also very tasty. The waitress was overworked, but service pretty good for one waitress. read more

Giovannis table - This is your take on a margherita pizza ? Get a clue . - Pizza Near Me - Bee Cave, Texas

We recently took our entire family to this newly opened restaurant in Bee Cave. Our overall experience was wonderful. This is a very traditional, family owned restaurant with traditional Italian food. Chicken Parmesan, Lasagna, Bolognese, etc. The food is good if you love the Italian classics. The service was outstanding and it is very kid friendly. The restaurant itself is not a big space, so it may be more difficult to get into on the weekends. Highly recommend and take the kiddos! read more

Hungry for Italian food found a cute place on Bee Caves and wanted to have a nice meal so I was seated right away. Very quick servers aiming to please. Seated immediately I noticed long drapes over the windows to keep heavy sun off. I ordered several menu items and found the Fettuccine Alfredo with Chicken which was a plus. The waitress took my order of a salad and cheese sticks. First I ordered a Reisling white wine added ice because I do like ice in my drink. The pasta was above average the sause did ring very well with me. I recommend but the cheese sticks was not hot enough a little too stiff needed a little more cooking time. I will return again prices moderate for the area. Large plates and bread over cooked but good. Ambiance is a fun first date and exceptional service a major plus. Lovely decor sweet and comfortable dining. New business opened formally Napoli's read more

I'm from New York and my cousins are Italian. These credentials leave me to say this is the best Italian neighborhood place we've eaten at in two years down here. You need to get over here and support this place, because I don't want to spend two more years looking. Nice people, excellent food, typical neighborhood ambiance. You can bring the kids. My wife ordered veal Marsala by mistake. She meant Piccata, and the Marsala was so good she decided to just eat that. I had a bite, and she was right. Brooklyn good. As we were finishing, the chef came out to say hi and ask how it was. First time this has happened anywhere in Texas, but not uncommon in New York. These people are awesome and their food is great. Don't miss it. read more

This is a lovely Italian restaurant. I stopped in after a hike in Westlake. I got the spaghetti and Italian sausage and my boyfriend got the seafood fettuccine. Both were delicious and the service was friendly. We also enjoyed a mixed drink and wine. Overall I loved the low key ambiance and simple but fresh and delicious ingredients. I would highly recommend stopping in for a low key Italian cuisine . read more

Again, Great food and even better service. They were busy but the service never lacked. The food was (as always) high quality. Tried the Seafood Special (Family Favorites). Mmmm. read more

First time going to Giovanni's Table and I will definitely go back. It was amazing! I felt like we just stepped into a restaurant in Italy. The flavor of everything we ordered from the chicken parm, the lasagne, Alfredo and more was so good. If you haven't tried this place yet, go! read more

we were so hopeful for this place but sadly disappointed. got there and ordered caprese salad. tomatoes were basically white so we left those and ate the mozzarella. then we waited over an hour for our food. a table next to us got there after us and got their food before us (even finished the food before ours came out). we got chicken piccata and piccata with salmon and shrimp. the chicken piccata had great flavor but the chicken was cut into strips and was tough/rubbery not exactly a cutlet like it should be. the salmon and shrimp dish had no flavor except for char and everything tasted burnt. no one came to check to see how our food was. we pushed the salmon dish to the side after taking only 2 bites and the i'm assuming owner came to give us the bill. we told her our thoughts about everything and she proceeded to take 30% off the salmon dish. no apologies, no can i make you a new one, let me refund you the full amount. nothing. will not be back. read more

I was looking for a few Italian restaurants closer to South Austin because I bring food as a medical rep to offices there. All of them gave me the runaround we're not able to accommodate me, do not open till 11 AM. This is when I called Giovanni's as I live in Lakeway this is our neighborhood Italian restaurant. Not only do they pick up before store opened, they immediately accommodated my needs; was able to create two large pans to serve a group of 13 people and have all of it together within one hour. I can't say enough great things about this place. And I know it will be good because my wife loves it as well. Stay local and support this great restaurant read more

We were looking for something new to try for dinner and found Giovannis by odd chance. We were quite impressed and will be going back again without doubt. Tried three dishes. Shrimp and crab linguine. Tasty. Big portion. Chicken and sausage risotto was delicious. Cooked perfectly. Great sauce and there was enough left over for lunch the next day. Which was good for two reasons. Dishes arent cheap, but I had dinner and lunch for the money. Veal marsala was not as good as expected. The beef gravy flavor was salty and overwhelming. Tried tiramasu and the Italian Cream Cake. Cake was outstanding. Tiramisu was good but a little strong on the coffee component. Family run and operated. Dad was in the kitchen cooking for each table in order so it wasnt fast but well worth the patience. Kids and mom were taking care of customers. When I go back instead of the chicken and sausage risitto I want a custom shrimp and sausage risotto. And lets take a full cake home also. read more
