“ Me and my family went here on our way home from a trip, and I usually don't care for Italian restaurants. This place was much better than any of the other places I've been. It felt nice but not snotty. The service was amazing, and the pizza was the best I've ever had. Would highly recommend! ”
“ I've been searching for some great pizza for a long time, and Gianni's is my new go-to spot! The pan pizza is unbelievably good and oh so deliciously cheesy. The thin full meat pizza was fantastic as well. On top of that we had very friendly service and a most enjoyable time. Will be back!! ”
“ Kate and Gianni are just the best people. Had a superb dinner and Gianni talked and we caught up on old times. The food and atmosphere are just awesome. When you are here, you are among friends. ”
“ I tried this resturant while in the area teaching a training class. Delicious food! Waitress got a little busy because a party of about 30 walked in without calling ahead. She handled it well considering she was the only waitress. House moscato was good. ”
“ Great pasta! We tried the calzone, and in all honesty, if you order it, order a side of sauce. Otherwise it's a bit dry. Have not tried the pizza. But like I said, the pasta is amazing. I've also had their fresh scallops. Yum!!! The lasagna is good. The ravioli is good. Everything with their wonderful Sicilian red sauce is amazing. I have not tried the white sauce as yet, because I love the red sauce so much. And their homemade salad dressing is to die for. It is family run by a very talented chef direct from Sicily. If you're wanting a cheap out of the can spaghetti, don't come here. If you want quality, this is the place! ”
“ What a serendipitous experience!! Living in Edwardsville, IL I have always known that to get great Italian food, one had to go across the river. I could not have been more incorrect! I had one of the best food experiences in quite a long while in Litchfield, IL!!!! Gianni's is owned by a man who is Sicilian and he has been immersed in Italian food since he was a child. He has worked with some of the best Italian chefs and restaurant owners St. Louis has ever known. The restaurant is located in a small storefront and is quite quaint inside. Pizza, salad, pastas, & desserts were all phenomenal! This restaurant is definitely worth any drive! You will not regret your experience!! ”
