Giovi Fine Food

Real Italian food made by real Italians!

Giovi is a restaurant dedicated to bringing authentic flavours to Queenstown. Where nothing is rushed and traditional cooking methods are honoured to create unforgettable mouthfuls, waste no time in paying Giovi and Giovanna a visit.

Giovanna? She's only the brains and the tastebuds behind this marvellous creation! Your go-to lady for all things Italian and tasty, her remarkable vision has propelled this eatery firmly into the Kiwi consciousness. A fully stocked Italian deli, an Italian wine bar and plenty of comfy, informal seating make Giovi an all-encompassing slice of Mediterranean bliss.

And that's just the beginning. With classic Italian focaccia, a combination of minestrone soup and the freshest Caprese salad, these starters mark the beginning of your culinary odyssey. Pair it with a staff-recommended wine and feel yourself being whisked away to a hilly vineyard in beautiful Tuscany.

Continue with a lovingly made pasta dish, all of which cater to seafood, meat and veggie enthusiasts, the comfort eaters and those who enjoy the simple things. Pizza lovers are also invited to indulge in the classic iterations of the world's favourite cheat-day eat. And seeing as you've started down that road, you might as well finish with aplomb. Rich Italian chocolate cake, crostata with seasonal stone fruit and her family vineyard has made an exclusive limoncello liqueur JUST for her, should fit the bill perfectly.
