SIMPLY AWESOME!! GREAT FAMILY OWNED RESTAURANT THAT CREATES AMAZING & REAL ITALIAN FOOD!! I can not say enough great things about this establishment!! If you ask me, once the word gets our about this food, Giovanni's will be packed and a line out the door!! Even as it is, in the time we were there on a Wednesday night, there was a steady stream of take out pick ups and Grub Hub drivers picking up food. As to our food, we are originally from the Boston, MA & Providence, RI area that had enclaves called "Little Italy", where you ate real family Italian food!! I'm here to tell you, the Giovanni's family restaurant in Sharon delivered the food we remembered from back east!! They use family recipes that deliver real flavor using real and fresh ingredients that you can taste!! The funny part, in speaking with the son, it turns out the family moved to Sharon from the Boston area!!
As to the food we enjoyed during this visit, it consisted of, a Meat Lover's New York Style Pizza, a Steak Bomb Sub (that I added 2 over easy eggs), Chicken Parmesean Sub, and a Cheeseburger Sub. The pizza was delicious!! Hand made, real marzono tomatoes that you could taste in the sauce. The pizza wasn't full of grease, even with a meat lover's pizza. The diced meatballs on the pizza had great texture and flavor as did the rest of the ingredients. We finished it, even with the rest of the food, even with only three people!! Now, I can say wonderful things about the other two subs, my wife and daughter loved them, but I must share about the Steak Bomb Sub with my over easy eggs!! This wasn't just a delicious sub, it was an experience to be savored!! This was a cheese steak dreams are made of! Yes, IT WAS THAT GREAT!! I love Steak and Eggs, but this was so much more. The grilled onions, peppers and mushrooms were not overcooked. You could taste each ingredient. The roll texture is just right. And the Steak, eggs and cheese was the best of the best!! It was an experience!! We will be back soon!!
From our family to the Giovanni Family, we are so glad you are here in Mercer County, delivering such amazing food and sharing your family recipes with our communities!! You just can't beat fresh dough, sauce and food made daily!! You can just taste the difference!!
Plus, a side note... Sunset over Sharon,...
Read moreI use to love this place but tonight I went with a group of colleagues and it was the worst experience I’ve ever had. Our waiter was decent, came to the table maybe 5 times for the 2 hours we were there. We were not told a week ago when we made the reservation that we could not get spilt checks. So we got a bill that half of us couldn’t pay for because we only had our debit cards. Then for them to add an “automatic tip” of almost $30 without asking?! I’ve gone here before and have never had an automatic tip added to my bill. And even so if you do this for larger groups why not tell us in advanced that you do this? Then to get smart because we are trying to figure how to pay our bill and say that we don’t know how to add. Our waiter saw us struggling to figure out the bill for almost an hour and never once came to ask if there was a problem. I’m very disappointed because I loved this restaurant but after my experience tonight me and my 10 other coworkers will not be returning. You can also see in the photo that our original total was crossed out so that the waiter could put in his...
Read moreWe orderd three pizzas for our first visit. We wanted to try a new pizza place and heard a lot of good things about Giovanni's. We ordered a Margherita, plain cheese and a pepperoni and sausage. My wife and daughter both loved their's and I enjoyed the pep/sausage. I judge new pizza shops on their pepperoni and sausage pizzas because it's a very common pie that should stand out. I'm personally a deep dish guy but their NY style was just right. Not to thin. The sausage was more of a groundbeef style that I'm not use to. The taste was great, but not my ideal texture. The shop gets 5 stars because it was killer pizza but it's hard to go back and stomach $45 for three pizzas. Delicious pizza. But at...
