Food was delicious but we felt rushed. Each course was brought out before we finished our appetizer & salad. We weren't asked about dessert, the check was brought to the table instead. read more

Service eas great! Ordered the Giuseppe special pizza. The pizza is. more cheese forward and could use more sauce. Pepperoni and sausage are more on ghe bland side. read more

Made reservations for a party of six. Was sat a little late. Server was fantastic. Ordered the calamari which was a little chewy and needed seasoning.we also got garlic bread which was very very good. We got an assortment of things. Pizza, salad, pasta. I got a mini pizza. It was so so good. Very pleasantly surprised. Salad was HUGE. All 6 of us enjoyed our meal which is a feat for 4 adults and 2 kids. The ambiance in the grotto was quiet and cute. Loved it. read more

Place has a nice look and friendly staff but the food was very underwhelming and tasteless. Chicken parm tasted like the chicken as well as the sauce had too much water. Pizza was just okay. Three of us in our party and non of us finished our meal or wanted to take it home. Not bad enough to complain just to not want to come back. read more

Dropped into Guiseppe's Pizzaria and Ristorante for a quick lunch while touring Meredith, NH, with our group. The restaurant was well-attended, but we were nonetheless seated promptly. The environment was cozy and comfortable and the service was friendly. For food, we chose the Pollo Florentine Alfredo pizza and a cup of Beef Minestrone Soup. Both were super delicious. The pizza had an abundance of spinach hidden under the mozzarella cheese. That was a bonus, no one had ever done before! We were unable to attend the advertised live music and didn't taste the beer, but it seems like a good place for both. The restaurant was housed in a larger, modern building with interesting shops. The restrooms, were just the next door, outside the market, indoors. There are shops across from the restaurant, and stairs. read more

We were visiting friends who suggested this spot for our dinner, and it turned out to be a nice evening. We were quickly seated and had a friendly server. We chose the fried ravioli appetizer special, which was very good. Hot, crispy and delicious. This and the entrees were reasonably priced. The dinner entrees come with a salad and a big basket of dinner rolls was brought to the table at no charge. Entrees were huge and big enough to split for those with a smaller appetite. Overall, we thought the entrees were good. We were so full, there was no room for dessert. read more

Meatballs and sausage side where poor at best, meatball was all filler. Their Idea of chicken broccoli and ziti was not what I had hoped for , red sauce with mozzarella, sauce was not good, We ended up throwing it away (take out) read more

Service was great! Everyone so friendly. Pizza was delicious and the GF chicken dish was chock full of veggies and yummy! Live music was a plus! Price was extremely reasonable for the food, service and friendly atmosphere. Will be back when in the area! read more

Heard about this place so had to try it. Was very busy, suggested wait was 45 minutes to an hour. The restaurant was cute, cozy and fun. I ordered Chicken Marsala, and it came with salad and bread. My meal was tasty and the price was reasonable. My friend had the pizza, not the best pizza around but was fine for a late lunch. The view outside is pretty, it's at the Mills Marketplace which is very cool. Lots of shops there, other eatery places. I would come back because the ambiance is very nice and the prices are fair. read more

Amazing live music :) overall great atmosphere! Love the energy, the staff, and the food.

We are on a girls getaway ~ Upon entering we didn't see the lady at the checkin desk (apparently she was bent down behind something) so we walked in the restaurant- we were told not so politely that if we wanted a seat we needed to go back out and wait at the check in desk. We did so - got a table ~ once we were ready to order we let our waitress know that we needed separate checks - she rolled her eyes and promptly told us that doing that was a pain and couldn't do it. Now, I know these days nobody can afford to pick up the full bill for a party of 6. It's not that hard to ring them up separately. Just be kind. It's not that hard! read more

Those with mobility issues are going to have a challenging time (lots of stairs). The ambiance is pleasant, as is the staff. The chicken piccata was said to be okay, but not special. The chicken cacciatore was said to be delicious. I found the parmigiana tour to be a mixed bag. The eggplant, chicken, and veal were thin, breaded well, and cooked properly. The spaghetti was Al dente but the marinara was bland. The piano player, Bob, was very entertaining the day we were there. The prices are good, the portions are large, the quality decidedly average. read more

The pizza here is worth the drive from anywhere!! The food is delicious and the ambiance is cozy. It's worth the wait! Prices are incredibly reasonable. read more

The place is super cute but the penne allá vodka is not good. It's basically just pasta with light marinara sauce. The pasta was cooked way too much. It doesn't taste like penne allá vodka at all. The pizza is really good though! Just don't get the vodka pasta lol. The waiters were great! read more

Finding this place was a bit tricky at first since it's located inside the marketplace. We ordered two large pizzas for takeout: a margherita with artichokes and a pepperoni. Both were quite good, and they surprisingly stayed warm despite us picking them up later than planned. We also sampled the Greek salad, which was decent. They feature live music most days of the week. Overall, it was a good experience. read more

At 8 PM I called in an order for a pizza and a small Insalata Verde. The woman who answered reluctantly took the order, saying they were about to close. as if she was doing me a favor. When I got there the restaurant was at least half full and there was no indication they were close to closing. Fifteen minutes later I was home and opened my order. The "salad" consisted of a few scraps of lettuce, one slice of cucumber and a few shavings of carrot. It bore no resemblance to the small Insalata Verde I had ordered many times in the past. I immediately called Giuseppe's to inform them in a timely manner but got a recording saying they were closed. This was frustrating because a half-full restaurant couldn't empty in the short time I was gone. To sum it up: Disappointing! read more

When we were in Meredith for our second night, we went to Giuseppe's Pizzeria & Ristorante. It was steps form our hotel which is what we were looking for. Called and were told the wait was like an hour and a half. We got dressed and went to the restaurant anyway and only waited a few minutes and were seated. Go figure. We ordered drinks and they were very good. Ordered bruschetta as an appetizer. The bruschetta was basically tomatoes and some shredded cheese on the top. I asked if they had any balsamic glaze they could bring me, but they said they didn't have any. No basil, no balsamic. Wasn't very good. I ordered Chicken Marsala and my daughter, Steak Tips. Both our meals were pretty good. Although the sauce in my Marsala was a little watery for my taste, but it tasted good. Chicken was tender, almost too tender. Not sure if they marinade it. Not the best Marsala but pretty good. The meals are served with a side salad which was very good also. read more

Don't waste your time All the signs and ads shows they close at 9pm but when we got there at 817pm, we were offered one drink at the bar. Adjusted your closing time read more

Good for takeout pizza. It's nice inside but the food isn't anything special. I would go for dinner, not lunch

Love supporting locals in Meredith like Giuseppe's! Cute Italian restaurant vibes with live music nightly. Good pizza and subs! A big enough menu that anyone could find something for them. Friendly staff and has both indoor and outdoor seating available! We tend to come here at least once a trip read more

Giuseppe's Pizzeria & Ristorante - chicken caesar wrap with sweet potato fries - Italian Near Me - Meredith, New Hampshire

I have been going to Giuseppe's for decades and have enjoyed everything about the restaurant until recently. Quality of the food has taken a nose dive. Just had what might be my last meal there after giving them so many chances to get it right. I ordered pasta with pink ala-vodka sauce and got red marinara and when I politely said this is okay, I'll just eat this, but I did order the ala-vodka sauce, I was told oh this is the ala-vodka sauce. My wife and our guests were also very disappointed with their meals and hardly touched them. Not sure what the cause is but the food just isn't what it used to be and I can't see continuing to pay for disappointing meals. Such a shame! read more

Staff was very friendly and pizza was good but the chicken parm sub and Greek salad had no taste at all. Wishing we looked at reviews beforehand. read more

We enjoyed the restaurant. The food was decent, had better pizza before, but it did the job. Service was fast. We loved the feel of the restaurant . Recommend if you are visiting to hit this place up read more

The pizza was awesome. Great service. Very friendly service. Ziti with bolognese sauce was excellent. Recommend you make a reservation before you go Nite they also offer pick up pizzas. read more

Food was great. Seafood medley was generous with a delicious garlic white sauce, and generous lobster, shrimp, scallops and mussels. Chicken cacciatore also brought me back to a favorite as a young kid in an Italian household. Generous portions also included a pasta and a small salad. Prices were low for the quality and portions. Our wait staff was friendly, quick and attentive (he was heading back soon to PT school). Lucked out and had music startup as we sat down. one man, talented on multiple instruments (including classic accordion to set the mood). We were front row and worried about the volume. But no issue. Great speaker setup so we could hear the music and still chat. Overall a great dining experience on a Friday nite at the lake. read more

Such a bummer- beautiful summers evening with live music outside but no outdoor seating because it "rained all day"- sorry it did rain at 4pm and by 6 everything was dry and beautiful. I hate being lead a line- they must not have had enough help. Please be honest. You would think in this short summer season in the lakes region you would want to "make hay when the sun shines." read more

Great atmosphere Well decorated for Christmas too. Visited two days before Thanksgiving. We will be back in the summer. read more

Ordered takeout, because they couldn't make a reservation for us until after 8. When I arrived at the takeout window I was ignored for a few seconds; awkwardly looked over my shoulder a few times. I paid but did not tip. (I don't tip for non-service.) I said thank you, and turned my back to go. At this point I distinctly heard the woman say, "Thanks for nothing." I decided not to turn around. You're welcome! read more

the pizza was absolutely disgusting. ordered three large pizzas and came to 80 dollars Which is honestly ridiculous. The pizza was way over cooked to the point that the chicken was burnt to a crisp. will never eat there again. Food is gross and way over priced. read more

I don't know why this place has bad reviews. For the area the food is good. The entertainment makes it memorable. Our server Ashton was great! We went in on a busy Sunday night and they had a table ready for us in 15 minutes. The ceaser salad was one of the best I've ever had. The peanut butter dessert is a must! read more

Giuseppe's in Meredith New Hampshire USA great Italian restaurant. The service and atmosphere is great. We were directed to our table, sat down and the live music started playing. Not too loud I might add. The server was attentive and took our orders. She came back with our dinners in short order. Everything was very good. We will be back! read more

The food came to my table ready to eat and myself and my party were outside. I unfortunately made a late afternoon choice to make a reservation for later that evening and the only table available was outside. Everything was going well until the bugs showed up. We had a table near the waterfall. This was my first visit to this restaurant and I hope next time to be eating indoors or not near the waterfall when I come back. Good place but bad placement for a table during a summer evening because I kept shooing bugs away from my food. read more

Excellent food and service - we had a wonderful meal with a great server . The restaurant has a beautiful outdoor setting near the waterfall . We will definitely be back read more

The evening did not start well. The hostess was rude and pissed off because our original party of 14 was reduced when a flight delay caused the reservation to change. The hostess began to reprimand our party and gave glaring looks at the guests because they had pushed tables together in anticipation of a larger group and felt that we were hurting business. This was uncalled for and inexcusable. High end dining, this is not. The food here is generally meh. House salads taste like they sat in a cooler but remained somewhat edible. All dishes served were bland and mostly flavorless. Anything sautéd came out dripping in oil. Kitchen staff tried hard but failed to execute. Service other than the hostess was very attentive, friendly and extremely accommodating. The building was old but well kept and live music was appreciated by our group. The restaurant was not crowded at all. This restaurant could do better. If you must go a lowering of expectations is advised. Be prepared for subpar food and sketchy service. I am certain there are better dining experiences nearby. read more
