Mohamad KasaeifardJanuary 7, 2016A classic fancy restaurant in two floors that serves italian food. Pizza worthes to try but there are a lot of better places to go in tehran to eat a delicious Pasta. Cesar salad wasn't good enough.Upvote14Downvote
Nima DaneshvarOctober 24, 2016Popular italian restaurant in this neighborhood, stuff is friendly and obliging, tranquil music is always played, atmosphere is quite pleasant, food is mediocre, and prices are relatively reasonable.Upvote12Downvote
Sadaf MoshirabadiAugust 16, 2017After u finish your food,NOTICEABLY ur server is waiting for tip beside your table!Most pizzas are completely normal without any special sauce or ingredients; french fries with special sauce is tasty.Upvote12Downvote1Upvoted Mar 23

mahdi daghighOctober 27, 2016Best tasting italian style pizza in Tehran. usually have to wait arnd 20 mins for a table at meal times. up to 2 hours on the weekend. Reserving doesnt guarantee an immediate table upon arrival.Upvote1Downvote
AlirezaJune 7, 2015While there are a variety of Italian restaurants in Tehran which serve pasta dishes, Giovanni Restaurants are definitely the best. I have to say that Pasdaran branch is somehow better, in my opinion.

Sepehr Barati NardinMarch 19, 2015Delicious Food and drinks But it is too crowded and you should wait outside in your car or street until a vacant table should be found.... Majito is perfectUpvote2Downvote- Alaleh P.March 23, 2018Lively and crowded. Good for gatherings. Great taste of Italian food, specially Pasta.

Saeid KhorSeptember 26, 2016As always the meals like Pasta and Pizza are great and as always customer service is their main weakness. Staffs do not look professional apart from those who are wearing white shirts. Given rate 6/10Upvote2Downvote
Maryam RJune 11, 2013Has polite and well-behaved staff. Fried liver as appetizer, and mojito among the drinks is recommended.Upvote12Downvote
alireza emrauseMarch 14, 2015excellent pasta... the pizza was really tasty but a little "wet"... still the best Italian pizza is @pagard in 27th street, Kordestan highway!!!Upvote2Downvote
Elham DavodiAugust 3, 2016Torino pasta taste like heaven and giovanni pizza was good not perfect :) try pasta ;)Upvote3Downvote
Amir TalèzariApril 19, 2017One of the best Italian restaurant they update their menu and design of their saloon each 2-3 months. Try Capri pizza with special french fries... at last try their mojito,it is simply the best👌🏻

Yalda AlaeiFebruary 19, 2016Great pasta and good service. So dark though. It's a bit gloomy. You have to stand in line but it doesn't take long.Upvote2Downvote
You won't get something special but you won't get disappointed neither. Everything is good but not perfect.Upvote2Downvote
Parnian ShahbazianFebruary 3, 2022It’s a disaster and a total waste of money. Pesto pasta was bland, Bianca pizza smelled, and the Cesar salad was basically just lettuce. We then complained, and they told us they were sorry!!!Upvote3Downvote
Sara MatinfarAugust 23, 2015I really admire the fresh ingredients that they use in their foods , tastes like heaven 👌🏼

Alireza BineshMay 4, 2016Idk why people love this place so much. It's too crowd and sometimes you have to wait even for an hour. In a nutshell drinks like mojito are good. Pizza is mediocre and mediterranean steak is nice!Upvote1Downvote

Sarah SahebariMay 23, 2016It used to be better in olden days. I don't like the new design. The dressing of the steaks and the side food quality has dropped. I guess I stop going there although I used to be a big fan 😔Upvote3Downvote
