Giovanni’s Pizzeria and Restaurant

Amazing deep dish pizza! The mozzarella and pizza sauce are out of this world. PERFECT crust. I’ve had my fair share of different pizza in Boca — good Italian food is very hard to come by — and definitely think this is the best pizza place in Boca. I will only order from here now on. I’ve had the baked ziti and Italian wedding soup in the past, too, which were both also tasty. They deliver until midnight and are very prompt. I absolutely recommend getting the Pepperoni Deep Dish, it will not disappoint!

Loved it!!! Great deep dish pizza!!! Cute place as well. My kids are not creative so they only ordered the deep dish cheese. I would have added sausage, meatball, garlic but that’s me. Wait time about 25 minutes but well worth the wait! OMG my 2 sons eyes rolled up into their heads after the first bite. The cheese was hot and gooey, the sauce was home made and awesome with a hint of garlic. All visiting from Chicago should visit Giovanni’s it really is a great place.

I just ordered an large pizza on a Tuesday night. Their menu says that when you order a large they upgrade it to x-​large which we confirmed with the person who took the order. When the delivery guy arrived he gave us a large pizza which they charged us $ 37 because we ordered 6 garlic rolls. We told the driver it was a supposed to be an extra large and when he called the restaurant back they didn’t want to honor the deal and said we could pay or send the order back. We paid because it was 11:30 at night and everything else near by is closed. We will never order from here again the delivery driver was very nice and helpful but the restaurant employee was very rude.

I’ve heard great reviews about Giovanni’s and I’m sad to say I can’t even review the quality of the pizza since they flat out said they didn’t feel like delivering. This horrible customer service will prevent me from even considering trying their pizza.

Last night (like most summer nights) we found ourselves hungry — craving pizza — and heading out to eat it around a quarter to ten. The places we knew and were familiar with had either already closed or were closing. What is wrong with this town? And what do they have against us late eaters? Well, last night was fortuitous– because we discovered Giovanni’s. The establishment has been there for about 4 years at the time I am writing this and the owner greeted us as we walked in. We were the only ones there– it was Wednesday night after 10 pm. He asked us how we liked our pizza cooked– I have never been asked that– I am accustomed to it being made and flopped in front of me with a «there-​eat it» attitude. He put on a movie for us– and we felt like it was our private pizza place. The pizza was amazing and he continually asked us if we needed anything. We were quite content. The place is small by Boca restaurant standards– but it is nicely decorated and there is the big tv… They serve canned and bottled soft drinks– no alcohol– but we were told we could bring our own if we wanted. The menu has a nice selection of other Italian fare which I imagine would be also good– if the pizza is any indication of it’s quality. Giovanni’s does mostly take-​out and delivery– but they are open until midnight and seem to enjoy late eater’s company. I give this place 5 stars because for what they do, they do well.

Pizza here is really good, tried the stuffed pizza for the first time and it was awesome!
I have ordered the chicken parm in the past and it’s also delish, easily feeds two!

Beware of the 39 dollar PIZZA. I ordered half Veggie and half meat and was charged full veggie and full meat. This is a case of two halves equal 2 wholes. Ask for a price before you order is placed. Don’t leave your pepperoni exposed.

So we have ordered pizza and stromboli from Giovannis. the first time it was fabulous. cheese on pizza a slides all over the place and crust wasn’t to rave about but overall a good experience especially for late night options since they are open late.
So we give it another try and order a third time. this time we get the steak n cheese stromboli and choc cake with gorganzola salad. stromboli was excellent. choc cake was extremely dry and stale. we took one bite and tossed it. it tasted as if it had been left out for days and they just poured hot choc sauce on top to fool us. great disappointment.salad was good…
So we order a third time bc my boyfriend is falling in love with the stromboli. same steak n cheese bit… but to our dismay its completely different the strak is in cubes and seasoned completely different. he was hungry so that was that.
The fourth and final time we ordered which was last week. we order the same steak and cheese stromboli. once again its different. now the streak is like lunch meat. weird I know. now for the disgusting part. A HAIR. baked right into the end of the stromboli. we called complained and to be honest they really didnt care. actually could care less. it was like «ohhh yeahh oh».
Basically this place is a no go for us at this point. its obvious there is no quality control. and absolutely no consistency when it comes to the preparation of their food.
Its so bizarre. and so sad because they have potential.
However that simply isnt enough to keep loyal customers.
Im only giving it 2 stars because the delivery driver is so polite and cordial.
Ps garlic rolls suck and are dry. cooked carelessly with no passion. and the presentation was awful various shapes and sizes of cooked dough. weird i know. I know.

I had high hopes for Giovanni’s Pizzeria. I have ordered delivery a few times now and I am not really impressed. The first time was a cheese pizza with mushrooms and a cheese calzone. The pizza was good but not great. The calzone was pretty good but the marinara sauce to dip was very acidic.
On my recent delivery order I just had to try their «stuffed pizza» or Chicago style pizza. I got a medium «Special» and it included sausage, peppers, and onions. The price was pretty high for a medium pizza $ 36! I convinced myself it would be delicious and worth every penny but I was sadly mistaken. It looked great although it seemed more like the size of a small not a medium pizza — strike 1.
Strike 2 came when I opened and tasted the calamari that I ordered. It was not even warm and the calamari was rubbery. This was a real bummer especially after paying $ 12.99 for it!
When I finally dove into the pizza it was just underwhelming. It didn’t taste bad but it wasn’t great and it sure wasn’t worth all the money I paid for it. STRIKE 3… you’re OUT! I will say it was loaded with toppings, I will give them that but overall the food is just really overpriced Italian.

Pick up review. Place is in a very wierd and narrow strip center on Powerline Road. Next to a Dunkin Doughnuts. Small inside. Would not want to dine in. No beer or wine. Pizza was delicious. Generous amount of shrooms and cheese. Nice crust.

Had the meat lovers and chicken pesto, both were good but way too salty and definitely not worth $ 56!!! Plus, they were not very helpful on the phone and gave me attitude. Will be taking my business elsewhere.

Dear Boca Raton and Palm Beach Unilocalers why now after three years of living here am I only finding out about this this place???
It is amazing!!!
the pizza is delicious I feel like I was transported from powerline Road to Chicago.
I order the garlic knots a small cheese pizza and a meat lovers deep dish the cheese pizza was okay the only thing I’m not that crazy about it the place is there her use of cheese it’s not high-​quality cheese it gets the job done but it’s really elastic and kind of salty and tasteless however their sauce the use of meats and their ability to make a deep dish is out of this world we warned you will have to order about 30 to 45 minutes before you plan on eating much like the pizzerias in Chicago good pizza takes time, love and care to make.

Great pizza. Lots of cheese & sauce. Good crust. Fast delivery. Will definitely order again.

One of the best Chicago style pizzas I have ever had. It is way cheaper than paying to have a pie shipped down to you.

Giovanni’s is expensive as hell but really who cares — its effing delicious. Best (and to my knowledge only) Chicago-​style pizza in South Florida. Pleasant, family-​owned spot.

Yummy!!! Deep dish pizza is amazing ;)

Best pizza EVER. Everything is so fresh and delicious. I’m not even a big pizza person but we order at least 1x a week now. I’m hungry just thinking about it!

One of the few places in Boca Raton that makes an excellent pizza. I am not a fan of the charred coal fire style so this place is perfect for me. They also make a deep dish that rivals true Chicago style pizza. The owners are very nice and take care of you like family when you dine in. This restaurant is a permanent part of our dining rotation.
