Pizza
Pizza is a famous Italian dish savored around the world. The entire credit for the popularity of Pizza in the United States goes to the chain of pizzerias all over the country. While the base and the texture of Pizza remains same across the globe, it's the toppings that differs from country to country. In the United States, you will find the top pizzerias serving pizzas with the toppings of mainly beef, bacon, chicken, ham, and sausage for the non-vegetarians. Other than these famous meat options, Pizzas with veg toppings such as mushrooms, pepperonis, garlic, tomatoes, spinach, etc. are also famous in most restaurants in the United States.
Irrespective of your locality, you will find a variety of different restaurants in your cities offering pizzas of all different types. Pizza is hot favorite among people of all ages in the United States. A large size pizza is enough to feed a family of 3 or 4 at large. Pizza is also the most preferred food whenever a group of friends is hanging out together. Pizza gained popularity in the United States after the American soldiers stationed in Italy returned from World War II.
Over the years, different pizzerias in the United States have developed their own respective regional variations. Pizza gained popularity as the iconic dish in the United States in the second half of the 20th century. Whether you prefer thin or thick crust pizza, you can find a pizza of your preference at the best pizza restaurants in your city.

This has quickly become one of my favorite pizza spots in the city. I've never eaten there, but lucky for me, this is on my boyfriend's way home from work so he can bring some delicious take-out home! We've had a few different kinds and it has always been delicious. Crispy crust and perfectly cooked dough. My favorite was a combo of spinach, grilled chicken, roasted red peppers, mozzarella and feta cheese. Not sure of their delivery radius within the city, but definitely check them out!

We found two crickets in a batch of French fries. We called the store and nothing was even attempted to make it better.

Ordered online, food showed up cold 2:15 later. Managements response was sorry about your luck. Last time ordering from here.

I have been to this place a couple times and have ordered from them multiple times. We tried many different things on their menu and one word is enough to describe all: Greasy. I cannot believe the amount of fat they put in their food. It makes it so heavy and drowns the other flavors. Their pasta dishes are simply noodles swimming in oil and sauce. As to their pizza, I would say you can find better pizza around Dormont. Although we do not like their food, I would say that the service is fast and the food is really warm. If you have not tried it, please do so and see it for yourself. Just remember that it is going to be very fatty...

The pizza stands out from most ordinary pizza places, by far the best pizza I've had in the pittsburgh area. The sause is sweet and the pizza is greasy like a Philly cheese steak hoogie. Here delicious!!!!

Went here for the first time tonight and was overwhelmed with the amount of great gluten free choices! They even made me gluten free garlic bread to start. I ordered a buffalo chicken hoagie on gluten free hoagie bread and it was amazing. I haven't felt so normal in years! Bravo Giovanni's!

HALF-BAKED. We ordered a large pizza for delivery, the cost was exorbitant at $27. It arrived with the crust nearly raw. It was practically inedible and we felt disappointed and ripped off. We could have had a much better dinner at another restaurant for our $27. Maybe it's better if you eat in, but I can't recommend their delivery service food.

Great gluten free pizza! Service was excellent. Would re-visit if we come back to Pittsburgh!

My girlfriend and I walk past Giovanni's almost every day and the smell blowing out from the door is INCREDIBLE. Finally we decided to order something for delivery and see how it was. We were severely disappointed. My girlfriend tried the buffalo chicken salad with french fries. I ordered penne noodles with marinara sauce. We decided to share an order of cheese bread twists and a slice of cheesecake. My girlfriend's salad was basically a few shreds of iceberg lettuce slathered in mediocre, overly-spicy buffalo sauce. The chicken and fries were cold. The pasta was nice and hot, but I found the marina sauce to taste bland and ketchup-ish, almost like they had dumped a cup of corn syrup in the mix. It was freaky. I was surprised that the cheese bread thing was so highly rated because ours was doughy, cold, and we weren't even sure if cheese was involved. The marinara dipping sauce was the same as what was on my pasta- ketchup-y, sharp, and basically flavorless. The cheesecake was actually pretty good, flavor-wise. Perfectly sweet. However, the consistency was almost identical to that of a half-melted tub of frosting. The whole thing was a gooey mess, spilling over the sides of the crust. Our experience was incredibly disappointing and we ended up throwing most of the food away. I could have set aflame forty bucks and felt about the same. That being said, we didn't even try pizza. Maybe that's better, but we won't be taking the risk to find out.

I usually order from this place because delivery is usually fast and pizzas are generally ok. Last week I ordered a medium pizza and cheese sticks. The delivery came fast and the delivery girl was really nice. But I think they got a different cook because the pizza was not as good as before and we couldn't even eat the cheese sticks. Also the medium pizza seemed like a small and we thought that the price was unreasonable. Not sure if I'm calling them again ;(

Great option for those on a gluten free diet. Gluten free pizza was good, but I was most impressed when they brought regular garlic bread (for my wife) and gluten free garlic bread (for me).

Hands down best delivery in PGH. The pizza was really tasty and the penne with vodka sauce was perfect! The noodles were perfectly cooked and everything arrived piping hot!! And delivery was prompt! Most food available by delivery here is inedible so this was a happy surprise! I will definitely order from here again. Recommended: spinach feta pizza

Ordered a large cheese and large pepperoni pizza for $30, including delivery and tip. Absolutely great pizza and delivered to Carnegie in the time they said. I've had their pizza twice so far and love it, the sauce has a delicious sweetness to it I can't place. Definitely highly recommend!

I've given Giovanni's about 7-10 chances over the course of 3 months, and I'm done. The first time I got a specialty pizza from them it was amazing, and every time after that it's either been burnt or cold or covered in grease. I might be able to come to terms with the long wait and the barely adequate customer service (at least with delivery and pick up, I've never sat down and eaten in the restaurant, though I have exchanged pleasantries with one of the waitresses and she seems friendly) if the food were consistently good, but it's not. I've done call ahead pick-up, I've done order and wait for it pick up, and I've done delivery through their website. The last time I ordered and picked up, they gave me the wrong pizza and I didn't realize it til I got home (my fault to a point, I probably should've looked at it). It had onions and mushrooms on it, which I don't like, so it wasn't like I could just eat it anyway. I called them and the guy asked: "What you want me to do? You want I deliver new pizza, you want credit, or you want pick up new pizza?" I feel I should note that I used to work as a server. I realize mistakes happen. Despite being hungry, tired, and frustrated, I made sure I was pleasant-- I did not insult anyone or raise my voice. Based on my previous experience with delivery with them and the facts that I didn't want to wait 45 minutes for a new pizza and I'd already put $2 in the tip jar at the counter and didn't want to tip a delivery driver on top of that, I drove back and got a new (correct) pizza, which was smothered in cheese (I originally had asked for them to go easy on the cheese). The guy apologized 3-4 times, which I appreciate, and it seemed that I got a lot of extra toppings on the new (correctly made) pizza, but I found it extremely disappointing that a handful of apologies was my only compensation for being an understanding customer ("Hey man, it's cool, it's just a pizza, no one died," is something that I said.) I feel I should've been offered a discount on my next order or offered a free dessert or breadsticks or something to compensate for the fact that I had to drive back to get my order correct. Now, maybe I should've SAID that ("Hey, uh, can I get a discount on my next order or get a free dessert or something?"), but I don't feel that as a customer I should have to make suggestions. I once witnessed a couple go in there and complain that they'd been waiting an hour for delivery. They were handed their order free. So I'm nice, drive back to pick up my order when they got it wrong, and I get compensated with a few extra pieces of chicken and some cheese that I didn't want on my new correct order? I guess the squeaky wheel really does get the most grease. Unfortunately for them, this was their last chance with me. As I mentioned, out of anywhere from 7-10 chances over the course of 3 months, they've disappointed me more often than they've dazzled me. As soon as I opened that box and got the wrong pizza I turned to my husband and said: "That's it, we're never going to Giovanni's again." With his mouth full of hoagie he asked: "Aww, are you sure? Because this hoagie's really good," and I replied: "Well, let me see if they can make it up to me," and they didn't. So if you wanna roll the dice, you might have some amazing pizza, but you also might have to wait half an hour for something cold or burnt. Best of luck in gambling at Giovanni's.

Food is average. I have ordered pasta and pizza. My husband and I did not like the pizza at all. The sauce is sweet and the cheese is watery and mushy. The pasta was ok. Nothing to write home about. Probably won't go here too often.

I have read a lot about how slow their delivery is, and I don't understand how as I walked in to order to go and was out the door under 20 minutes - of course there are other logistical issues with delivery. The Food: We ordered a medium bacon and meatball and a grilled chicken salad. The Salad: The salad was extremely underwhelming, warm, wilted lettuce and so little grilled chicken. I like a nice crisp, cold salad, and if I ask for chicken I expect more than 4 or 5 small chicken strips. The Pizza: I really enjoyed the crust on this pizza, better than most I have had in Pittsburgh, but the sauce was awful. The sauce was plentiful, which is a plus, but it was extremely sweet, almost like eating candy. There is enough cheese on the pizza, IMO just the right amount. The big junks of meatball were pretty good, not great, but good, and as for the bacon, where is it? I didn't see nor taste bacon except for a bite or two. I will try Giovanni's again, but will stay away from the salad and may just go for traditional pepperoni as a topping next time. I will also give their pasta a shot at some point!

Delivery was FAST during dinner-hours on a weeknight. I got one of their online ordering specials - a large pizza, one topping, cheesy bread, and a 2-liter. The first thing I noticed - the pepperoni was "miniature", as in, the diameter was maybe half of what I'm used to on a pizza. Is this a Pittsburgh thing? Maybe it is - I'm a recent Orlando transplant. Size didn't matter, in this case. The pizza was tasty, though I think it could have used a bit more sauce and cheese. -1 star for that, but it's probably largely personal preference. The cheesy bread is as tasty as it is messy. It's REALLY cheesy. Overall I'd definitely order from them again.

In an interesting and exciting recent development surely influenced by rival Mineo's, this Giovanni's franchise has added a dessert shop next door (same address, though) that specializes in gelato and chocolate candies, all of which are homemade. This subdivision, named Giovanni's Chocolate Factory, was inspected by Kay and I the other evening after dining at Mt. Lebanon's Little Tokyo, and it mostly passes. I was a bit annoyed when we were told that the gelato was gone for the day, but I did manage to take home a half-pound of assorted chocolates that ranged from salted caramels and coated marshmallows to toffee bark and crunchy things containing peanut butter. Every last bit of candy in that elegant box was an interfusion of lasciviousness and loving attention to detail. Either demons or grandmothers are making this fabulous candy. Stop in and give them a try.

I was in Pittsburgh with friends for the 2013 Pirates opener. Whatever you do, do NOT order a Gyro from here. My friend ordered a Gyro and I couldn't help but be flabbergasted. There were about 4 strips of lamb meat. Four! The pita was able to close! That should not happen! It was a travesty to behold! Pretty sure it was a pre-packaged frozen Gyro from the store, certainly not carved from a rotating spit. Not sure if all of Pittsburgh serves Gyros this way but it was a huge disappointment. Waitress and service were fine..
