Giani's Napoli Yeoksam Main

We didn't make a reservation because it was early on a weekday evening, but the wait began when we arrived. There was something a bit hard to understand about why one star was removed. There was an empty table in the restaurant, but we didn’t guide them, and the person waiting right in front of me, who arrived almost at the same time, was allowed to enter relatively quickly. However, we were only guided to an already empty table after waiting for over 40 minutes. They seemed to enjoy the wait. Of course, the food was decent, but there weren't many menu choices compared to that... It was disappointing that there weren't many dishes to choose from compared to the very small portions of food. Most of the dishes were white sauces, but there were two tomato-based dishes? I ordered pickles because it was just that, but I was taken aback by how spicy the Cheongyang chili pepper inside was. It was delicious, but I didn't feel good. And above all, it was so noisy that it was impossible to have a conversation. Please refer to this for those who wish to visit.

From an asian palette: Bread- the bread they use for their pizzas. exceptional Antipasti- Grilled Octopus on top of mashed potatoes, pesto, peas, and basil. Very strong in flavor in my opinion for antipasti. Still was very unique and exceptional Pizza- truffle pizza, usually i hate it however it was good even for me. Flavor was great. Thin crust but still very soft. Pasta- Arabiatta was only a touch spicy with a not overbearing presence of bacon. I would have preferred more sauce and less bacon.

Although I don’t have a picture of the pizza, it was my fav dish of the night. The dough was just PERFECT. Thin, chewy, and crispy. Pasta and risotto were also good, but I will definitely come back for the pizza! The place got filled up quickly, and there were about 4 teams waiting to be served around 6:30 p.m. on a weekday. Making reservation beforehand might be a good idea!

The bread was hot and fresh. They have a lunch special on the pizza. The pizza was good and the pasta I ordered was good and was a little spicy. Not enough for my mexican tongue but for those can't handle spicy, it should be good.

Very good pizza. Decent pasta. The dough had that quality chew and was crispy. Very Napoli style. We got the divola which was lightly spicy and very tasty. The arrabiata pasta had good tomato flavour and light spice. The creamy crab pasta was tasty. The house red was like vinegar but that's always a risk when ordering a house. Nothing was too salty. It was refreshing not to see a bucket of sugar used in every dish. Friendly staff. Cute rustic restaurant.

it's a good ,just like a local Italian pizzaria

First, this place isn’t closed. Anyway, cute little Italian restaurant. The menu offers a variety of options (there’s a lunch special menu, which is convenient for office folks. The food actually exceeded my expectations. Pizza dough is nice and chewy (and not burnt!), and lasagna was packed with ingredients and flavorful. I’ve seen high-end Italian restaurants in Seoul charge you up the butt, so I’m pretty happy with hearty, yummy meal at a pretty accessible price. Service is also friendly—easy-going and not overdoing it.

Food is really good but call to make a reservation. Gets pretty crowded during meal time.. I came here again recently and the food was super super oily.. attached new pics. Won’t be back again.
