"America's Top 100 Independent Pizza restaurants for 12 years including 2008"
"I was glad I got the slice... of proper New York-style pizza, complete with super-thin crust, cheese
baked to brown perfection, just the right amount of sauceand pepperonis with those crispy
little edges."
"Giovanni's consistently ranks among the best pizza parlors in the country and has been written up in
La Cocinita, on Citysearch.com, Expedia.com and a horde of other publications. How Julia Miller
missed this gem is beyond me."
"When we think of pizza, we think of New York City (no offense Chicago). And then we think of New York pizza...it's Giovanni's where we imagine Uncle Joey from Long Island would be most at home. Thin crust and a genuine New York attitude permeates the air here."
"Crusts of Giovanni's superb pizzas are thin but soft rather than crisp, toppings are laid on unstintingly, and prices are reasonable."
"What you will find is a small selection of very tasty, hot and pleasantly-topped pizzas"
"One thing I do know is that it's hard to find a good slice of pizza in this town...The only pizzeria
I've found that can provide that fix is Giovanni's..."
"The requisite toppings are available, but Giovanni's specialty pizzas steal the show. The White Pie's
three heaping layers of cheese are too much of a good thing, but Giovanni's Spinach Pie is nearly
perfect, with a thick layer of bright, juicy (not soggy), flavorful spinach. Even spinach haters will
succumb. The Pummarola pizza, with no cheese, extra garlicky tomato sauce, onions and spices,
is killer--you'll never miss the cheese. "
"a dash of salt and a little oregano and it's Heaven in an isosceles triangle."
"Tucked into an unassuming strip mall near Kirkland Air Force Base is Giovanni's, a gem of a pizza place that more than matches its reputation"
"Good pizza is what we were searching for when we discovered Giovanni's and we weren't disappointed."
"So celebrated is pizza from this small, unadorned Southeast Heights establishment that this year it was named one of the top 100 independent pizzerias in the nation..."
"Yes, there is lots of good pizza in Albuquerque, but only Giovanni's makes a spinach pizza so
crisp,
garlicky and gooey with cheese a kid would scarf it down knowing full well it contained a nutritious
vegetable. Great white pizza and calzones, too. And oh, yeah, the red sauce is stellar."
"We tried pizza, spaghetti, lasagna and calzone and all of it had that slow-cooked, herb-infused,
food-as-love Italian flavor Madison Avenue advertising agencies try to convince you is available
in a jar if you'd just buy the right brand of sauce"
"When the Zito family moved from Italy to Queens to Albuquerque, nothing of culinary importance
got lost in the shuffle."
