Giannis - Pompano Beach (FL)

3 /5 Norangelis: The meatballs were not enjoyable. I don’t think the trifecta mix is being utilized, pork, veal, and beef. It was dense and big but flavor and smell not pleasant. The portions are big but flavor and seasoning could use some more attention. I’m sure they have a loyal fan base but I could not enjoy anything. The garlic knots were hard and dry. The sauce was all onion and black pepper heavy. I should have said something because I was ready for a Caesar salad but we got this garlic heavy romaine lettuce salad and it was okay but was too strong, bitter and spicy. Service was good and the place definitely had a buzz. I heard a lot of banter and jokes. Can dress casual. If you go in from the back parking lot, the host desk is right there. I walked past it because someone said go to the front. I went to the front just to be told to go to the back to see the host. Oh my. I’m glad I stopped by, now I know.

5 /5 Scott Karlin: Tried Giannis last night. Heard about it and wanted to see if it was as good as everyone says. Well, it wasnt good... nope... it was a stellar experience. From the moment we were greeted and sat, we were in good hands. The service from Rosa was confident excellence. She knows the wine list and menu and we appreciated her input. Garlic rolls arrived and they were so good, I had to move basket away to not ruin my appetite. Ordered a nice super Tuscan for $60 at guidance of Rosa. Perfect! Salad included with dinner and as hearts of romaine with a carrot and covered in Gorgonzola crumbles and aged balsalmic vinaigrette that was a family recipe from Sicily. Best salad Ive had in a while. Veal pizziola was phenomenal and had a few Kalamata olives for flavor. Shrimp scampi was great. Rosa also brought us a loaf of Tuscan bread by surprise -- and it will make great sandwiches for tomorrow. Pricewise... a bargain. Such a perfect dinner. We are 100% going back... often

5 /5 Joseph Bonomo: Food was delicious. Staff were amazing. Seated right away, not an extensive menu to make yourself indecisive. Old Italian-American classics but attention to detail. Erika, our server, was very sweet and consistently checked on us and kept refilling our drinks. Fresh bread, calamari that was cut perfectly — not too thin, excellent cold crisp salad, and a portion of chicken parmigiana that was too much to eat in one sitting. Will definitely be returning.

5 /5 Nikole W.: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ | A Christmas Eve to Remember – Dorian is a Star! "We spent our Christmas Eve at Gianni’s, and it was truly the highlight of our holiday season. While the food was absolutely spectacular—as it consistently is every single time we visit—what truly made the night unforgettable was the exemplary service provided by our waiter, Dorian. Dining out on a busy holiday can sometimes feel rushed, but Dorian made us feel like the world had slowed down just for us. He truly enchanted our table with his effortless charm and warmth. It is rare to find someone who balances such high-level professionalism with a genuine, magnetic personality. Dorian didnt just serve us; he curated our entire evening. His presence brings a certain magic to the room, and quite frankly, Gianni’s wouldnt be the same without him. He has a way of making a great meal feel like a special event, and his dedication to his craft is evident in every detail.
