    Pizza with ham
    Laura F.

    The pizzas were great the lasagna was good too. Decently priced for the proximity to the tourist area too.

    Pizza Pragese, Pizza Salame, and Tagliatelle Pesto Genovese.

    The service was amazing, very friendly servers! The food was OUTSTANDING! The dough for the pizzas was perfect, the sauces and toppings were all amazing. The Pasta was perfectly Al denté, and the pesto sauce was creamy, and so tasty! The food was amazing, and it was surprisingly cheap. We didn't break our wallets eating here. With how close it is to Old Town, I strongly recommend coming here when you visit!

    Margarita pizza

    The easiest 5 stars I have ever given. And the whole family agreed. Extremely friendly staff, excellent/ delicious food- probably the best pasta we may ever have had. We are from the USA and totally enjoyed the food. My son got margarita pizza- said it was the best one he has had. My husband got the gnocchi and shrimp(gnochetti gamberi), my daughter got the chicken and spinach (penne pollo) and I got the shrimp linguine (linguine delo chef gamberi). They were all delicious and very flavorful. Perfect portion size, we all finished easily. Since it was our last night in Prague we were glad did not have to waste food. We also had a 4 cheese pizza - that was great as well. Once again ... I think one of the best Italian foods I have had!

    Delicious food, nice ambiance, reasonable pricing! After a couple days of exploring prague and having Czech food, it was finally time to indulge in some italian food. I was craving pasta and my friend wanted pizza so we decided to give Giovani a try. We soon found it out that it was just a few minutes walk from where we stayed. The restaurant is located in the heart of old town, in a quaint back alley. We were seated immediately in the first dining room. The decor is lovely and warm and the staff was friendly. I ordered tagliatelle a al con pesto and my friend went with sardine pizza. The food was delicious and portions were decent. The prices were reasonable as well. Finally we left with a happy tummy and great experience! I recommend this place and will be back!

    Fresh mozzarella with tomatoes. Yummy.

    If heaven ended up to be for real, this place will definitely have a booth there! While touring Prague one of those nights..I was starving. Quickly searching for the nearest Italian restaurant, I found this heavenly place. The place's decoration is extremely authentic, I was impressed by how much happiness I felt the moment I was there. I ordered spaghetti with sea food. Oh my god! The best ever. I had mozzarella and tomatoes as a started, it was so fresh and delicious. Very very recommended. Actually a must.

    A cute, authentic Italian place in the old town square. We ordered: - the penne with spicy tomato sauce - light and flavorful, but not really that spicy - the pizza Giovanni - best dish of the night! - the fungi pizza - bland, not worth it - the calzone - MASSIVE, and good but nothing special - the truffle ravioli - again, good but not as flavorful as expected Overall - good prices and food in a relevant part of town, but nothing was superb

    Top - Pizza with mushrooms Bottom - Foccacia bread
    Naveen S.

    One of the better pizzas I've had during my visit to Prague. The interior is nice, cozy, and rustic. We ordered the Fungi pizza along with the Focaccia bread. The crust on the pizza was perfect - light and airy with a crunch. The Focaccia bread is almost like a regular pizza, just with olive oil and fresh garlic on top instead of sauce, cheese, and toppings. Ordering both the pizza and the foccacia bread felt a bit redundant, but the foccacia bread would definitely be a nice compliment to a salad/pasta dish. Overall, great service, great food at a reasonable price, ambiance was pleasant. Will definitely return when Im back near Prague's Old Town

    Second time here and we like it as it so cost and the stuff if friendly and welcomes you. The Saltimbocca was good as ever. The Calzone isn't so much a pizza number one of the place. The price is low and you can't expect a 3 star restaurant. This counts for open prosecco and open wine as well.

    Very climatic restaurant. It's placed at very narrow street which makes eating outside even more charming. I tryed there carbonara and pizza. Both good (although carbonara better). I reccomend it mostly because of ambience and location.

    Perfect Italian pizzas, nice place, nice people, good atmosphere.
    Lukasz C.

    Very good place, near center of town. You can sit indoor or outdoor. Waiting time is acceptable, less then 20 minutes. It could be difficult to find free places in diner or supper time. We tried Italian pizzas with Italian salami or spice Italian pizza. That was perfect. Beer Staropramen tastes very good, especially in sunny day! Good place for everybody who likes Italian food and good atmosphere.

I know, I know- the more toppings you have the more likely it is that the pizza will end up soggy. But their menu proudly lists pizzas with many toppings so I thought they could rise to the challenge. Also I purposefully didn't add tomatoes on my pizza since they can add a lot of water. Maybe I just had an off pizza and another time it would be different.. Disappointing dough aside, the toppings were very tasty and the service was friendly. For toppings, I had: olives, bacon (not crispy at all), anchovies, garlic, mushrooms, chicken (very nicely cooked- not dry at all!), and arugula (aka rocket?). If you are price sensitive, be sure to confirm the prices of things with your server as you're ordering. I had a glass of wine which on the menu was listed for about.. 35ish crowns but on the bill it was 70. I did ask about this and my server told me it was because it was a large glass of wine. I agree it was a large pour- but I didn't order nor want a large serving. Also, the make your own pizza is listed at a certain price and I asked if that was for whatever number of toppings and she had said yes when I ordered. But on the bill there was a surcharge for extra toppings. All that wasn't a huge deal as the prices were pretty good and our server was really nice, but I do not like being surprised with extra costs at the end. Also my meal went from being pretty cheap to average. The overall atmosphere was nice and casual. The gorgeous horse paintings were a nice backdrop.

It was the most expensive meal I had in Prague, and while the food was good, for these prices, I expect to either be really impressed by the food or to have particularly special service or ambiance. Because I didn't have a reservation, I was seated in the entry hallway; the ambiance may be a little nicer in the downstairs dining room. I had the spinach tagliatelle, tiramisu, and a lime iced tea. I thought the candied walnuts in the pasta were interesting and I really liked the dish. The tiramisu was good but not a standout, though I liked how the bitterness of the espresso came through. Lime iced tea was pretty sweet and more lime than tea, but it was nice even if it wasn't what I expected. If you don't care too much about prices, this is a good place, I just think there are comparatively good Italian restaurants at a better price if you go a little further from the major tourist areas.
