I finally made it to Giovanni's. Let me tell you, it was truly worth the drive from Staten Island…read more You know you're in for treat because the valet was packed and people leaving looked so happy and pleased. It was me, my hubby, son, and daughter. Let me be clear, I came for one thing only. The seafood and steak board. The waitress seated us right away. Guys the room was packed. There are also two other rooms. Our waiter's name was Giovanni. I thought he was kidding, but no that's his name. I missed the memo about BYOB. No worries there's a liquor store very close by. Hubby went and got us wine. Now the food. I told my hubby he didn't need to order off the menu, the board was going to be enough. He didn't listen. We ordered the wedge salad and calamari for appetizers. My 10yr old got the lobster ravioli and hubby got the Cacio E Pepe. I did the board for two with my son. OMG OMFreakingG! Let me tell you, if you go and don't get this, you will never forgive yourself. Wives are always right and my husband said, I quote,"babe you were right this is great!" You get two lobster tails, shrimp, octopus, scallops, lobster Mac, spinach, lamb chops, a Ribeye, and mash potatoes. We all ate it and I still got left overs for dinner. I also need to share the vibe is like a big family dinner. I shared my scallops with the table next to me, to convince them they had to order the board. You see tables sharing alcohol and just vibing. So cool! Please add this to your list. Service 100, Food 100, Ambiance 100, Vibe 100, and it will not break the bank at all. Can't wait to go back and yes I will be seated in Giovanni's section.

Our waitress was great--polite and attentive, and did the best she could, however, it didn't seem like the support staff around her were much help. We waited 20 min to get water and place our drink order and another twenty between refills. At one point, the bartender was on the floor helping to take drink orders, but it seemed like the male manager wasn't doing much to help out. Food was good, flavorful, but what should have been a 45 minute transaction would up taking an hour forty five, by the time we were done. Place was nice and quiet though, only a few tables, but several were larger parties.
