I ate at Giani’s Pizza with my family . The restaurant is clean and well-maintained. When you enter you order your pizza and then pay. After you have ordered you choose your table. When your pizza is ready they bring it to your table. The...pizza was good. The crust and cheese were excellent. The sauce is average. The toppings are generous. The prices are a bit high, but it is a good quality pizza. The staff were friendly and helpful. We also ordered the breadsticks and they were terrific. This is a good pizzeria.More

This place is very popular with locals. We had a little difficulty getting drinks as we didn't know the flow. We ordered jalapeño poppers-not too good. The garden salad was good and our pizza was just ok. The guy bussing the tables were super nice...and helpful.More

We’re staying in a nearby hotel and wanted to enjoy a meal in. Gianni’s Pizza hit the spot. Shared a small Pizza and salad made a nice meal for two. Service was quick about 20 mins.

They take your order then wait til you show up to make it. We carefully timed everything so we could stop by when it was ready. They were not busy yet inexplicably the pizza took just exactly as long as it takes to make and...cook one before it was ready. If you policy is to not make it until the customer arrives say so on your order page. Waste of our time, later for an engagement and insulted,More

The best thing about Giannis was the breadsticks with tomato dipping sauce. Everything else was disappointing and the spaghetti vongole was inedible with chewy clams. It is a seat-yourself, order from the bar place with refillable drinks - all casual and fine but you also...need the food to be good, which we didn’t think it was. That said the restaurant was packed and so we were obviously in a minority; it seemed very popular.More

This is the place to go for pizza in Monterey! We visit Monterey several times a year and someone recommended Gianni’s. Parking lot was full on a Wednesday night, and it’s obviously where the locals go. The pizza was excellent, the service was great and...the atmosphere is very inviting. Would have loved to try the gelato- next time I will!More

A REAL SIT_DOWN PIZZA Parlor I really liked this pizza. It had lots of toppings and lots of cheese. But the crust and sauce are a little bland. It’s true I ordered a veggie pizza, but the sauce and toppings were about an inch from...the edge and they did not have ant flavor. Perhaps they needs to be coated with garlic butter or cheese. They need something to add flavor The crust seemed cooked well and I really did like the pizza, the outer edges of the crust needed some help; The sauces was a little bland, but it was hard to tell with all the topppings and cheese. I would definitely go back. The ice cream looked tempting and unique, but the price was pretty high for me $11 a pint.More

Burger Place across the street upon arrival was supposed to be open, but found to be closed. Walked across to this busy Italian place with its own parking. Got take out Sausage sandwiches in 25 minutes. Pizza smelled and looked really superb as it flew...by. Cheerful and cozy indoor setting with friendly, fast moving staff.More

We always stop for pizza and a salad everytime we come to Pacific Grove. We have been coming twice a year for over 20 years. It was disappointing not to see the place packed but still have a great staff and excellent pizza.

I just got back from Monterey. My visit there was great Now to the bad part. It was my very first time going to Gianni, and I was very disappointed in there pizza. Extremely disappointed. I got there at 4pm, and the staff was great....Very friendly. I saw that on Tripadvisor that it had a four rating, and I assumed that the pizza must be great. I see an Italian flag outside the the estabishment, and am thinking must be good pizza here. I take it back to my room and the pizza lacked flavor on so many levels. The sauage was cold, no salt. and no flavor at all. Anyways, like i said, friendly staff but not good pizza at all.More

Like I said before, been coming to Gianni's from almost the time they opened. Whenever I come back home, they are always a must visit. Sometimes little to no change is a good thing. They still are old school, and the food reflects it! While...they have a good variety of things, I always go traditional. Pepperoni pizza, couple of bread sticks (which could be a meal by themselves), black cherry gelato (YUM!!). This time I was a Sunday evening walk in, so I had to wait almost an hour for my order, which I didn't mind. I just sat out front and took in New Monterey. If you're on a schedule they take phone in orders and I see they do Grubhub, but for me that family atmosphere is worth hanging around. Still the best on the Central Coast!More

Went for take out dinner. Ham sandwich was more than I could eat. Pizza great, salad huge. Definitely recommend
