  “Nice intimate restaurant. Friend and I had a few drinks, pizza, a side of chunky chips and garlic bread. Fresh thin crust pizza was tasty, chips were nice. Staff were friendly, a good crowd on a Friday evening.”

  “Uncomfortably crowded seating + kitchen exhaust smells. It was overall an unpleasant dining experience thought the staff was friendly, if less than attentive. Food was mediocre at best. Won’t return should I ever happen to be in Carlisle …”

  “We had a wonderful meal here. We arrived without booking and the small restaurant was pretty full. The staff were really friendly, welcoming and very attentive. We had a lovely meal and really enjoyed our evening here. We'll definitely be returning, when we visit Carlisle again. This restaurant is just a few yards away from the Travelodge Central and a short walk from the train station.”

  “Delicious Food & Lovely Atmosphere Giannis Pizzeria is a true gem! The moment you walk in, you’re greeted with a warm and welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. The staff are friendly, and the place has a cosy charm that’s perfect for a relaxed meal. The pizza was absolutely delicious, fresh, full of flavour, and made with care. You can really taste the quality in every bite. Highly recommended for anyone who loves great food in a lovely setting. We’ll definitely be back!”

  “My first visit, a family night out celebrating Mum's visit. Very easy to book a table, which was a must even though we went mid-week it was really busy. We used the pay car park directly opposite for ease. You can park for free for 2 hours in nearby disc zone streets, with a Cumbria parking disc available free from many local outlets. Unfortunately we were not advised of the hours wait for food when we ordered, but the food was worth it. The staff were helpful and attentive, we had pitchers of water for the table during our wait. There are stairs to the toilet facilities and to the front of the restaurant itself, so if you require accessible facilities this will be difficult. This is most definitely the most authentic Italian restaurant I've been to with the food and atmosphere reminding me of Rome. Mum isn't a fan of huge plates of food these days and was able to order a smaller meal from the children's section. We managed starters and mains, resorting to fabulous limoncello shots as afters. I'm really looking forward to going back here and will be making sure I have room for a sweet too!!”

  “We were running late to find a spot for quick dinner in Carlisle and managed to locate a parking spot and Gianni's pretty much at the same time. …”

  “Wow. Just wow. This place is a hidden gem in Carlisle. A teeny little Italian restaurant with proper decent traditional meals on offer. We went here post graduation ceremony and so glad we did as it was one of the best meals I have had for a while. Perfect seat at a comfy table and LOVED the decor. You could almost believe you are in a little village in Italy. Very prompt and FAST service. Firstly I had warm goats cheese on bread with ragu as in the photo. Wow. Incredible flavours and had be completely dribbling for the next course. Next was chicken valdostana(might have spelt that wrong) chicken breast, breaded, deep fried, topped with mozzarella, served with spaghetti bolognaise. Absolutely incredible. Was full to bursting when we left and was good value. Totally recommend this place. I will be visiting again.”
