Giovanni Fresco — Local services in City of Glens Falls

We was passing through the area on the way to Lake George so I wasn’t too familiar with the area. Looked around and decided to take a chance here, and it was absolutely worth it! The restaurant was small, clean, and unassuming. The owner greeted us warmly and explained the menu options, we decided to get the build your own pasta bowls. The food came out quickly, hot, accompanied with some fresh bread and the best garlic butter spread you’ve ever had. This hands down has been the best pasta I’ve ever had, fresh, tasty, and authentic. The owner was warm and checked on us a couple of times during our visit. We were so pleasantly surprised and how delicious the food was and how welcoming the owners were. We highly recommend this place next time you’re in the area, it’s not your typical Italian joint, this is the real deal and you won’t be...

I really wanted to like this place because it’s finally something different in GF, but the food was awful. The alfredo had no flavor, the pasta was a horrible consistency that was way too light almost to the point of dissolving in your mouth. My wife got spaghetti and meatballs. The sauce was nothing special, the actual spaghetti noodles were basically lo mein from a chinese restaurant, and the homemade meatballs that are $2 per meatball! were just frozen meatballs you pick up from Walmart. Maybe we hit an off night based on all the other good reviews here but it was honestly so bad I wouldnt give it...

I ordered via DoorDash so I have no experience with the inside of the restaurant itself but if it's anything like the taste of the food, then it will be amazing. So far I had the pappardelle and the hot Italian sausage sub and let me tell you. It was perfect and rich in flavor. But it's kept simple to compliment the dish. Just how real Italian food should be. And the sfogliatelle (an Italian pastry) was just spectacular too. I know it might sound too good to be true, but it's that good in my experience. Thank you to the owners for opening this place...
