On 9/19/2025 scott swalla had this to say:
Just like the old days. The onion rings are always on point.

On 7/22/2025 Ron Husted had this to say:
Pam declared today pizza day at Giovanni's. Their Special which consists of a mini, a drink and a side of onion rings is a huge bang for the buck, we certainly didn't walk out hungry, even brought some home. Always superb servers and eats and always arrive quickly to the table. I can only describe those onion rings as delicious, delicate and tasty every time, in fact I would come for just a side of those, their actually that good. As you can see from the photo I couldn't resist having a piece of my pizza before shooting the photo. Mine was a mini with cheese, pepperoni, pineapple and jalapenos, Pam's was with cheese and double pepperoni. To say they were mouthwatering would be a big understatement.
