Ristorante Da Giovanni

Excellent restaurant, I ate there for lunch today with my family. I can only recommend trying it. Everything was delicious, the fish was incredibly fresh, and the quality was truly top-notch! I don't understand the negative reviews. Everyone was friendly, and the service was fast and friendly. The price was in line with the quality!

English: On a beautiful Sunday at the end of May, walking along the Falcomata seafront and finding all the restaurants full, we came across this little restaurant, all the reviews were good, but the appearance made us a little hesitant.... We were welcomed with kindness, it seemed like being welcomed into a Sunday lunch at your grandmother's, the owner is very sweet, the cleanliness of the place and the scent of fabric softener on the tablecloths stand out, I have to make this positive note because not in all places where you eat well there is the smell of perfume, here there is the harmony of lunch I can assure you that it changes and a lot, they explained all the courses to us with great care, in the end we relied on the owner's son who in the end guided us very well, abundant dishes, very fresh fish, you could perceive the freshly caught aroma, and cooked like a god, to lick your fingers and mop up the plate, last note the cook the husband for an award-winning chef, now I present the dishes try the muccuni, that is, the sea snails enchanting including drinks and wine approximately 40.00 per person

Exceptional restaurant This is my second time eating at this restaurant. The first experience was already excellent, and a year later, I returned with high expectations. This time, too, I felt at home: the fish was incredibly fresh and the ingredients were prepared to perfection. The hospitality and friendliness of the owners are a real plus. It will definitely be a regular stop every time I return to Reggio Calabria. Highly recommended! P.S. The swordfish rolls are truly amazing.

A small, tastefully decorated restaurant, where the owner greeted us professionally. The tuna steak was incredibly fresh, the calamari was delicious, and the grilled octopus was also delicious. Then we ordered the famous pasta alla bagnarota. We were a little confused by the tomato and swordfish sauce, but... it was truly fantastic. The gratinated shrimp were equally delicious... unusual, incredibly light, and obviously made with top-quality ingredients. The grilled tuna was equally fresh, cooked to perfection. The Greco di Statti was excellent, and highly recommended. The plating was perfect, and it was reasonably priced at around €50 per person. Truly excellent, congratulations.

We found this restaurant online for a quick lunch during a visit to Reggio Calabria. The place is very charming, with great attention to detail in both the service and the food. The waiter (I believe he was the owner) made excellent recommendations for both appetizers and main courses, as per our requests, and we also enjoyed a good Calabrian wine. The fish was truly excellent, and the flavor combinations were excellent. Highly recommended.

Excellent cuisine. Traditional, homemade cooking with local, natural products. A simple menu, not as extensive as I like. The wine selection is also very good. The price seemed a bit high in comparison, and the amount of food a bit small. But it's exquisite for the palate.

Recommended by the staff at the nearby Bergamot Museum, we came to Giovanni for lunch and were very pleased. The place is small but tastefully decorated; the staff is extremely friendly and happy to chat without ever being intrusive. The menu isn't extensive, but it's all fresh fish! The pasta with swordfish sauce is delicious, and the swordfish rolls are also delicious. Prices are average for good fish! Coffee was kindly offered! It's a bit off the beaten path, but it's worth the walk! Recommended!

A small, well-maintained, and spotlessly clean restaurant where you can enjoy delicious dishes... exclusively seafood. I just had lunch there with my wife and daughter, and they were very satisfied too. Very high rating. ❤️

Pleasant evening, soft location, friendly staff, the kind owner available for every request,

A pleasant discovery in the center of Reggio Calabria. A small, family-run restaurant with just a few seats. This mix is ​​its strength, because it succeeds. It prepares dishes with excellent fresh fish at an excellent price/quality ratio. The superb quality and perfectly cooked tuna deserves special mention. As for the rest... What more can I say? All that's left to do is try it for yourself.

Excellent cuisine, when I have to bring friends to have them eat well, I go to Giovanni's.
