"To our delight, everything went smoothly. Our table was prepared and we were seated immediately after it was sanitized. The flatware was sealed in plastic bags and presented alongside the menus. The menu matched what we had seen online, so we were prepared for the variety of dishes. Focusing on the Italian section, we ordered the Stuffed Peppers and Baked Ricotta for appetizers. For our main courses, we chose Eggplant and Veal Parmesan, as well as two different versions of Chicken Marsala—one with traditional fettuccine and the other with an upgrade to potato gnocchi. They had an extensive beer selection and some cocktails, but we opted for a bottle of Chianti, pleasantly surprised by the reasonable price. The appetizers were fantastic! The baked ricotta was a unique and creamy delight, perfectly complemented by grilled bread slices for dipping along with pimentos and other accompaniments. The stuffed peppers were flavorful and mild. The Chianti was a pleasant discovery—an excellent 2018 Chianti Reserva priced at just $33, an absolute bargain! When our main courses arrived, we quickly realized we had made a mistake in our ordering. Each dish could easily serve four people! They were all extremely tasty and among the best in their category, with perfect flavors and served piping hot. We ended up packing away three-quarters of each dish to take home! Finally, we couldn't resist indulging in a couple of desserts, especially since they were on discount. Both the raspberry desserts..."

I dined late at night and ordered the hunch marsala dinner. It was flavorful, but it could have used a little more salt. I would definitely order it again.

The food was delicious! We dined outside, and even though it was raining, we managed to stay dry. It was very convenient to sit there. Our waitress was fantastic as well. We'll definitely be returning!

the first time here. we had the most beautiful server. Portobello sandwich needs more taste. very bland. not very good. maybe a small marinade. high-time soup was good. I liked the fresh spinach leaves. nice touch. the filled banan peppers were very good and I liked the chicken parm View menu

I found the service to be incredibly unprofessional. We sat at our table for about 20 minutes without anyone coming to assist us. Several groups that arrived after us received their orders while we were still ignored. Even after informing the staff at the front, it took a long time for a server to attend to us. Needless to say, we chose to leave without dining. If I could give zero stars, I would, but Google doesn't allow that.

We were looking for a place to celebrate my husband's 75th birthday. We would have 15 people in attendance. We called Gianna Via and they were happy to oblige. We had a great time at the restaurant. Our server went above and beyond with service. Their were multiple entrees ordered and all came within a reasonable amount and as ordered. The food was good. We were never rushed to be done. We were allowed to bring in a cake and balloons. We were provided plates to service it. and the price was reasonable for what we ordered besides the entrees we also had appetizers!

For my main course, I chose the Florentine pasta and added chicken, which came with a side of wedding soup. The soup was flavorful, but I found the pasta itself to be just okay—not exceptional, but still good. The chicken in the pasta was a highlight, though. I also tried the electric blue cooler drink, wanting to try something unique. It was a well-mixed drink, but it wasn’t really to my taste; however, that's just personal preference. I still finished it, nonetheless. Our server was friendly and attentive. When our appetizer took a bit longer than expected, he kindly brought out our soup while we waited, which I thought was a thoughtful gesture. Overall, a great experience! View menu
