VALENTINE’S IS FAST APPROACHING…RESERVE NOW!!!

For a memorable evening please relax and enjoy our traditional Italian cuisine. Using much of our local harvest, Gio’s has created a menu that’s not so much bound to Italian traditions, but inspired by them. Gio’s will make your visit one to remember. Anyone who has spent time dining around Italy knows how hard it is to transport true Italian character of food to anywhere else. So here at Gio’s much of the texture and flavor is tied to the freshness and vibrancy of the ingredients that you almost have to be there to get it. Gio’s captures that essence when cooking Italian food from the heart.
