Gianni's Italian Restaurant

"We have been here five times since they opened, and every time has been better than the last. We took friends from out of town here for dinner, and our guest said it was the best chicken Parmesan ever had we continue to be impressed by the efforts they put forth. During one of the frigid days in January, the restaurant that usually hosts my Bridge group was closed due to frozen pipes. I called Angelo the GM and he said we could have lunch and then play bridge for the rest of the afternoon. He couldn’t have been any sweeter on my accommodating, the food is outstanding and I really hope this place makes it over the long haul in a spot that has had much restaurant turnover"

"Came in with my family on a Sunday night. Got some wine and appetizers. The waitress (Probi) was extremely friendly and honestly just a wonderful person to be around. The atmosphere of the restaurant was quaint and enjoyable. We got some wine, which was great. The cheese bread and mozzarella sticks pulled apart exactly like you'd want. Great experience. My wife and I are already planning to come back for a date night soon."

"It wasn't good but it wasn't bad. The girl who started us I don't think she done English, there's a sign that says wait to be seated and she just stood there and looked at us and then pointed. The tablecloths were dirty, some of the plates were dirty. I ordered fettuccine Alfredo and it was creamy but no flavor, my husband ordered the tour of Italy and he said it was mid, the only good thing was the bread they bring out. We ended up spending $60 which was ridiculous because it definitely wasn't worth it. I love Italian food especially pasta and I only went here because of the reviews but it definitely wasn't worth it at all"

"Another hidden gem in South Kansas City! Saw this place when it was under construction and couldn't wait to try it. I was finally able to try the food to go and was amazed at the taste and quality of the food! The marinara sauce is AMAZING! I liked it so much I went back the next day and took my mom. She had the sampler, and I had the spaghetti with meat sauce and mozzarella sticks. Everything tasted amazing and did not disappoint! The bread....wow....the bread alone could be a meal. I've never tasted bread like that before, and it came out hot! They just opened, and I hope they get some traffic and are able to make it because I am a Johnny Cascones fan, but the food here is far better!"

"Tried this new restaurant in South Kansas City last Friday night. It has only been open two weeks. Overall I would say food quality was very good, service was good, they do need to work on a few issues to get five stars. I did ask to speak to the owner, who is a young guy about age 35. He seemed very eager to learn how to better serve customers. I will definitely try the restaurant again. There were three of us dining, I had the veal piccata over linguine noodles. The sauce was very good. My date had a chicken dish. I can’t tell you what it was specifically but it tasted good. It had sort of a lemon spinach cream sauce. The other diner had lasagna and she said it was very good. It’s hard being a new restaurant. I wish the owner of the very best because it’s always difficult getting started."
