Giovans - Crest Hill

I attended a surprise birthday party for 60 guests tonight, and despite the host being quite busy, everything went well. The food was served a bit later than expected, but we understood the circumstances. Overall, the celebration was enjoyable. I had to bring my own cake, which I anticipated. I would definitely consider hosting another party there in the future. The regular menu is also impressive, featuring excellent pizza.

The food was excellent! The pasta and sauces are all made fresh on-site, and they taste fantastic. My only criticism is that the service felt rushed. Our main courses arrived before we had even finished our soup (which we ended up taking home). Additionally, the decor could use significant improvement. It's not very inviting, with worn plastic table linens and unattractive decorations, along with banquet-style chairs that don’t add much to the ambiance. If they could update the interior, I think it would become a wonderful dining spot. But they’ve definitely nailed the food—it's truly delicious!

I absolutely love this restaurant! I've been a patron for 30 years, and I've never had a bad meal. The current owners are a wonderful family who genuinely care for their customers. I highly recommend that everyone give it a try. The prices are reasonable, and you get great value for your money. The breadsticks and pasta are made in-house!

I and my family love their pizza and salads. We always had the same server and he did a wonderful job. Refilled on time, he is very generous, and always receive us with a smile. We'll come here more often.
