C’était super bon ✅

Food is fantastic. Service is off the chart.

Great location. Food was incredible (the tiramisu was probably the best I’ve ever had). The staff was so sweet. Accommodating with language.

The pasta dishes were all delicious, making me want to come back and try more varieties!
The veal was slightly greasy.
The tiramisu was very tasty; it would have been even better with more ladyfingers!

J’ai pleuré tellement c’était bon

No words! C’est PARFAIT! Highly recommend les pâtes à la truffe noire.

On a beaucoup aimé ce restaurant - la nourriture était délicieux et très authentique (les employés étaient italiens aussi), il y avait beaucoup d'options sur la carte qu'on voulait goûter, le service était attentif et sympa mais pas pressé, et les prix étaient completement raisonnables. L'ambiance était bon et cosy. Je retournerai absolument.

ero alla ricerca di un ristorante italiano essendo a Parigi da solo per lavoro e sono rimasto piacevolmente stupito dall’accoglienza e dalla qualità dei piatti, super consigliato!

Superbe restaurant italien, les plats sont bons et bien servi, le service est génial... À très vite

Beaucoup trop bruyant et plats sans grande saveur.
Service sympathique et bon vin.

Emplacement parfait et très belle ambiance

A delightfully quaint Italian spot in the heart of Le Marais with warm and inviting ambiance, a kind and attentive owner and service team, and delicious food. It’s good and true Italian food without the fuss of trying to make it something extra, and it’s a perk that the pricing is very reasonable. I would most certainly go back!

Super!!

One of the best Pasta I had in a long time! Very friendly and attentive service and everything so reasonably priced - grazie mille e ci torneremo!

Such a great place to eat Italian food. The pasta was simply amazing, the service was great, everything was perfect. Will come back surely

Enfin un vrai restaurant Italien. Les entrées, les plats et les desserts sont délicieux et surtout ils sont faits maison. Le serveur ainsi que la serveuse sont adorables, professionnels enfin bref, je passe toujours un très moment dans ce restaurant . Les prix sont corrects. Ils ont une belle carte des vins. Grazie Mille.

My January 20, 2024 response to the restaurant owner's note.
I just received a semi apologetic reply from the owner. However, he also basically doubled down and called me a liar!

I repeat: the dish was inedible (the line cook himself nodded, from behind the argumentative nephew of the owner when I said the food had merely been reheated).

The veal looked & tasted like a dry old shoe sole AND WAS NOT cooked upon order, the truffle had no taste whatsoever and I DID NOT have more than 2 small bites before calling THE GREAT WAITER, LORENZO to ask if we could have another dish.
PLUS: note the speed at which a dish is delivered to your table. We had the salad in 30 seconds and the main dishes came in 2 minutes later. Enough said!

So, I will stand by my words and label this as a terrible experience! Only made better by the professionalism, politeness and positive behavior of Lorenzo.

I travel all the time and eat out at places ranging from holes in the wall to high-end restaurants and to me, as long as the ingredients are fresh and the cook skillful, the food served is always delicious.

So, I shall repeat that this is a tourist trap and unless the owner si willing to be a tad more honest and holds himself accountable for the bad food, there is no going back.

MORE, the fact that he has the nerve to write to me that we ate the food is truly unnerving! I should have taken pictures. I never take pictures of the food I order.

Had you just stopped at: "We are sorry you had a bad experience and hope to see you again at our establishment." We would've returned and given it another try. We all have bad days and I am not one to try to bring a business down.
Honest reviews necessary. I did nothing more than post a honest review and give credit where credit was due.
Once again, Lorenzo is the type of person you want working at your restaurant. The other belligerent and entitled young man (nephew of the owner) has to leave!!!
Awaiting the restaurant owner's response, if he has more to say about this matter

My October 2023 Review:
The good reviews are most likely fake ones written by friends of the owner.
Go to the restaurant next door: Pamela Popo. It's great food, great staff, great atmosphere.

The one and only redeeming point of Don Giovani is the amazing waiter, name unknown. I wish I had asked him for his name.
"Unknown", if you read this, you know who I am talking about: you wore a white linen shirt tonight and I heard you mention to other patrons that you were of Portuguese and Italian descent.
Your demeanor, calm, poise, professionalism and decency are priceless!~

We ordered drinks and appetizers. The beef carpaccio was good and most likely the only good item on the menu.
The salad was ok.
The pasta with truffle was made with Chinese truffle, rubbery and not fragrant.
My dish, the veal dish... was HORRID! When I nicely told the manager (the restaurant owner's nephew) that the meat was spoiled, he went berserk.
Note: any good restaurateur knows that when a customer sends something back, the magic words are: " We am sorry; let us make this right." Most of the time, the problem is resolved. I was ready, willing and able to pay for the dish AND order & pay for another one. The manager chose to argue with me. I can argue until the dawn of times. I told him that it was ok and that I just wanted to order something else. He would not let up.
He was extremely aggressive and when White Linen Shirt repeatedly steeped in to resolve the matter, he would not let him speak

He insisted on charging us for the inedible main courses, while still berating us about our remarks about the spoiled veal.
He explained to us that we did not know anything about food in general and Italian food in particular.
We will not even address that matter ????

To make a long story short: It was a terrible experience.
The food was NOT good. The place is not really nice, the street tables are uncomfortable. The waiter saved the day. I left a 50 Euros bill and was out the door. Ended up right next door at Pamela Popo and our evening was salvaged.

Une très belle découverte.
Plat savoureux.

Les gnocchis sont un véritable délice ! Le tiramisu est véritablement énorme et délicieux. J'ai passé un superbe moment dans une ambiance conviviale. Merci à vous

O lugar é incrível e a comida dispensa comentários!

Visitamos a primeira vez em 2021 por acaso. Não tínhamos feito reserva em nenhum restaurante na época e muitos não nos atenderam.

Acabamos encontrando o restaurante Don Giovanni e toda a equipe nos atendeu de forma excepcional!

Acabamos encontrando um dos melhores restaurantes Italianos em Paris e ganhando um amigo especial (Enrico).

Ambiente delicioso, com atendimento sensacional (especialmente Enrico e Lorenzo), caímos sem querer lá e assim nos apaixonamos perdidamente pela comida, pelas pessoas e nunca mais paramos de ir.. seguiremos voltando todas as vezes quando em Paris ❤️

J'ai été plusieurs fois dans ce restaurant et je n'ai jamais été déçue ! Les plats sont parfaits avec des vrais saveurs d'Italie simples et fraiches ! Le service est toujours fait avec le sourire et la bonne humeur et le restaurant a une ambiance cosy très agréable ! Un vrai bout d'Italie au coeur de Paris !

Situé dans le quartier de Saint Paul, il bénéficie d'une salle supplémentaire à l'étage, idéal pour se réunir à plusieurs de façon plus intimiste.
Cuisine italienne délicieuse et généreuse.
Bon service.

It’s a nice place if you are looking for a decent authentic italian cuisine restaurant. It’s located in the heartthrob of marais district close to BHV

Très très bonne adresse italienne ????????
Je me suis régalée !
Le patron est adorable et aux petits soins.
Je reviendrais :)

Excellent accueil (avec tout le sourire de l'Italie), excellente cuisine, cadre agréable. un excellent souvenir.
