Comfort Italian at a comfortable price 9/26/2002

I have frequented Don Giovanni is a perfect place for an polished plate of succulent Italian cuisine at a reasonable price. It is a great place for lunch, I find dinnertime to be very crowded and loud. I personally love their antipasti plate, their EXTRAORDINARY caesar salad, and their ravioli (get half lemon cream and tomato cause, believe me!) Their desserts are decadent, as well. In the summertime, it is best to sit on the veranda. Don Giovanni has a verdant garden area with a unique fountain that is charming, yet casual. Pros: light dinners, perfect for lunch, good prices Cons: poor service, cramped quarters, next to freeway more

Where the Beautiful people go 8/21/2002

OUTSTANDING! One word says it all, we took our in-laws who are from Portland and who dine out quite a bit and they were impressed! the place was hoping with ""movie-star"" looking people and just a busy as can be but it didn't interfere with the service or atmosphere. The service was fantastic, the waiter was very knowledgable and did not rush us and the desserts......WOW! This is a definite dining experience you need to have! Pros: Food, Atmosphere Cons: Small resturant more

An institution 7/19/2002

Don Giovanni is a Napa institution. Locals give you respect if you tell them you will dine there. The food is not flashy but it is good, decent, flavorful, hearty, and reliable -- not ""impress your date"" fare so much as real, heartful, cuisine in a celebretory but not over the top atmosphere. It is northern Italian with provincial French influence. The lamb shank was melt in your mouth delicious and the bacon and mushroom pizza was one of the best I ever had. Prices are moderate. We enjoyed it so much we went back two nights in a row. more

Service with sneer..... 6/25/2002

Was very unhappy w/ the overall dining experience. We requested a week in advance to be seated outdoors. However, upon arriving we were told that it would not be possible for a our party (group of nine). The hostess was overly rude and not accomodating at all. Later offered to seat outside in the sun. Upon leaving we saw several parties of 10 outside on the dining terrace. If you're looking for horrible service and good food this is your spot! more
