Giannelli's

Great customer service. Food was OK, highlights were the house Salad Dressing. Their coffee is not great, they used an instant powder for my decaf, not exciting, although it did come served with a cute cookie. Nice choices for creamers though. Nice offering of pasta dishes, including multiple choices for spaghetti sauces which I appreciated. Hubby had the Stromboli which he said was OK. Presentation lacked in that my plate was plastic as were the bread basket and the table cloth under the glass top. Oddly, my hubby got a regular ceramic plate. An unimpressive battery candle on the table lacked atmosphere. It was cold and drafty, ceiling fans were on. No masks were warn by any staff at any time. No disinfecting of the front counter between to go customers, we watched many come and go. Music playing were old standards which actually was one of the nicer aspects of the dining feel. You can find parking behind the restaurant as well as on street. Food was hot and tasty and they grated fresh parmesan cheese on our food as much as we desired. A nice touch were the bite size bread pieces with oil and balsamic and some nice spices. Spaghetti came with green beans on the side which were actually really fresh and nicely prepared.

It's pricey but it's Italian so that's what to expect. I only tried spaghetti and Alfredo. It was ok! I send my husband when I'm having cravings. The customer service was awesome. The ladies are really nice and have great customer service skills. The establishment looked cozy and clean, although we did take out. The pizza was disappointing with not much sauce on it though :(

Fantastic Italian food, went in for the lunch specials ordered spaghetti and (beef) meatballs and they didn't disappoint the sauce is very good. We had the chocolate cannoli with chocolate chips and chocolate sauce for dessert... died and went to heaven the end. Btw, they have plenty of seating inside. There's a good sized parking lot around back. They will pack your food nicely for carryout, we decided to dine inside because it was smokey and hot outside.

5 stars can be achieved with a few minor changes. SO CLOSE. My husband and I got the family style dinner for 2. Our two picks were shrimp Alfredo and lasagna. For 7 pc of shrimp, it was an extra $6.50. The food itself tasted very flavorful but I was still hungry after wiping my plates clean with the bread. The minestrone was the best I have ever had except it had a touch too much salt. The salad was impressive and good. I like that they bring out olive oil and balsamic vinegar with bread in the beginning, however, the bread would taste SO much better if it was sourdough instead of French bread, and if it was toasted instead of cold chunks of French bread. The lasagna had amazing flavor but needed more meat. The Alfredo needed more garlic and salt. The customer service was top notch and the restaurant is IMPRESSIVE and VERY CLEAN. If the portion sizes were bigger and there were some mild adjustments to seasonings with garlic/salt, I would raise to 5 stars. I’m definitely still going to recommend to my friends and family and we will be back. Also, the iced tea is sooooo addicting for some reason! Bring cash to avoid a 4% bill fee for credit card purchases.

The only reason I gave this restaurant one star is for the lovely server Tynaia, who was friendly, efficient and did an amazing job solely being the only server/hostess and busser all the while being hospitable to the restaurant full of people. The owner who was cooking served burnt garlic bread, green beans with stem still on them, the food was not fresh, as it tasted like very old, bland leftovers, sauce was too sweet, no flavor and food came out barely warm. When I asked for fresh bread that is normally served before the meal when dining in, to go along with our 3 overpriced meals to go order, she rudely denied, just said no. I asked if I could purchase it, she rudely snapped at the server, heavily sighing she exclaimed alright then if she wants it she can pay $4.75. I feel bad for the staff that has to work with her, and customers that have to deal with her behavior. She was mean, unkind and had a horrible attitude not only with her staff but to guests as well.

If I had to rate just the food, I would give this place 4 stars. However, when coupled with the extremely long wait for our food, the add on prices for a salad with your dinner, each pizza topping added to your pizza, and a charge for debit card use, I found it way to spendy for the quality and service. And to top it off, our wait staff checked in with several tables around us as we all waited for our food, yet never checked on our table. I was not even offered a refill on my drink after the hour long wait. Don't think I will be going back.

5 ☆'s plus!! This place is so amazingly delicious, if only I had known about it sooner! The chef, I love as well. She is friendly, takes time, to check on each plate she has prepared when I have been in there I highly recommend to everyone. Once you try Giannelli's Taste of Italy, you will be saying the same thing.. By far my favorite place to eat!♡♡:)
