Reviews for Gianni's Cafe in Kildeer, IL
10/2022 3* Quaint little place. Had outdoor seating as well. Came in to order to go. From the start the lady in front was... not so friendly. No smile, not friendly. Could be a bad night for her, not sure. But I ordered from the menu. Place wasquite small and crowded. And EXTREMELY LOUD inside! Too loud for me to ever consider eating there. I ordered simple spaghettiand italian sausage to go. Extra sauce. Came with Soup. I chose Pasta Fazool. Total was $24. Ugh! Took over 35 minutes toget the food. Might be a bad night in the kitchen too. Not sure. But that is too long to wait, especially for spaghetti. Gothome and it was dry. No extra sauce on the side, and certainly was not any on the pasta. The sauce was dry, the sausage wastasty, but again dry. The soup was, ok. Just ok. Never need to try it again. On the positive side....... The bread wasgreat! No need to return here. And probably no need to try one of the other locations. Disappointing. Left still wantingsome spaghetti from somewhere. Read more
Vodka souse pasta was amazing First time in this place will come back
I am so glad we decided to eat here for dinner! Very friendly staff, the best service, and really great Italian-American food.... It was our first time here so I decided to try a couple items. Ordered a delicious vodka sauce pasta with mushrooms as the maincourse, fried ravioli (I could clean up a whole plate of these alone haha), and minestrone soup. Soup was hearty and delicious;the vodka sauce was creamy perfection, and having the fried/grilled mushrooms (got a smoky taste) on the side was a plus for me.Nice atmosphere with perfect music playing, doesn’t take away from the food. Highly recommend going here with family andfriends! Read more
This is a really great place to go for Italian. If I'm ever back up in Lake County I go here. The Fettuccine Alfredo and Gnocchi... are really good. Read more
Took my girl here and it was amazing, great food and great service. I was drinking that fast it got me lit ????????
Food and service was good. We went for lunch and lunch menu was limited. It was mostly salad options so we opted to get a dinner... item. Portions were huge and delicious but way too much of a meal for lunch. It would be nice to see some sandwiches or lighteroptions. Read more
I was recommended by a colleague to check out Gianni's while I'm in town for work. I took her recommendation last evening and... was pleasantly satisfied. Courtney at the bar is a gem and the food and drinks were great! Read more
The salmon salad was more of a deconstructed salad. But it was delicious. A huge piece of salmon. I'm not really a salmon... lover, but I loved it. Very simple, but very good. It was our first time trying. Our server and the wait staff were all niceand attentive. Read more
