Da Giovani is really a two in one deal. One side is a dedicated Italian restaurant with waiters and a reasonably close facsimile of classic Italian dishes. On the other much smaller side they operate a pizza by the slice joint, which is my focus today.
Surprisingly there isn't much in the way of Pizza near Berri-UQAM. There's a popular place inside the station, but for several blocks in any direction Da Giovani is the only option. That's OK though because their pizza is actually better than average. Prices may be on the high side, but again so is the quality.
The place is small and old and dare I say well-worn. Even though they are open late, they don't have much of a selection after about 7pm, so go early. It's a pizza by the slice place, and a decent one at that, but it is just pizza so don't set your expectations too high.
