Perfect place for a business lunch meeting. What separates the men from the boys in great restaurants is when you are offered a black napkin in lieu of the white napkin when you are wearing a dark outfit. It amazes me how many alleged "great" restaurants miss this. Not Giovanni's. Very quiet atmosphere so it was great for a private discussion. Our server was simply outstanding, very experienced and very professional. He knew when to approach the table and when to leave us alone. It sounds rudimentary but this guy was good. We started with the 3-pasta sampler for each of us. Delicious but damn it filled me up before my primary lunch choice arrived. I chose the beet salad with grilled salmon. Again, excellent. The meal was perfectly paced, the service outstanding, and the food great. Giovanni's IS stuffy in the dining room. If you want something a little less stuffy, eat in the bar! Older crowd for sure.
