A beautiful, tucked away spot with great food (& nice wine) - Friday lunchtime was quiet but I can imagine it gets busier in the evenings. Very lovely.

Food always good and consistent with the owner more than willing to accommodate any request. Only issue can be the service if the owner is not involved.

My girlfriend and I had a most enjoyable lunch in Giovanni last Friday. The restaurant was quiet but we sat outside on the pavement and had a most delightful meal. The food was excellent, the wine good and the staff were friend,y and helpful.

Pleasant room opening on to a quiet backstreet, with friendly service, and delicious food. Servings were generous an there was a good choice of specials, several of which tempted members of my party. Prices were reasonable for this part of London, with no attempt to charge extra for side dishes; bread was charged at £1.50, but the basket was refilled without asking and at no extra charge. The deserts and wine seemed particularly good value. Complimentary digestifs were served to us all and were appreciated; the water melon flavoured liqueur was an interesting change from the more common limoncello.

As ever, we had a wonderful dinner. The specials are always a good choice and this evening was no different. Service was attentive without being over the top, and the "neighbourhood" ambience is perfect.

Reserved for today's Sunday lunch several weeks ago, but unfortunately the restaurant decided it was still ok to hold a four year old's birthday party today with lots of screaming kids and a children's entertainer who was using a megaphone! The restaurant should not have accepted customer bookings for lunchtime today when they had planned this children's party. The food was very good but the whole experience was spoilt by this mistake.

This restaurant serves consistently good food of a very high standard. Setting is small but pleasant and I can thoroughly recommend it, as it is a hidden jewel so close to Knightsbridge.

Very disappointed, especially as the reviews were great. Welcoming and friendly staff, but can only think the chef must have had the evening off. Can you believe that the avocado was "rock hard" - which self respecting chef would serve it up. Sea bass was slightly burnt. A great pity.
