Doesn't look like a posh 5* restaurant, but looks can be deceiving. Staff very efficient. The food is excellent, probably best in town. Definitely the best in town. My favourite place to go.

came here for our anniversary meal from recommendations.
so I changed our times and host was very accommodating, place is very dated and needs freshened up, can see the kitchen from where we where sitting which for me was a bonus , we had the early bird 3 course for 19.00 Pp plates where quite scarce for example lasagne was just a lasagne no garlic bread no side salad which for me was extremely basic and was quite runny , overall the food was good , drinks where a bit pricey was told 3.50 for a gin came to 7.00 including a tin of lemonade so for me that's expensive, lager is from tins and not pints,
really no atmosphere, chairs are uncomfortable and no table covers staff absolutely excellent.
would I be back .....probably

Service speed fairly quick. But the timing between courses was longer than hoped. But it was fully booked, so it's expected..
Also have some access to view the chefs cooking right in front of your eyes at some tables which is a unique experience, it's like being at hell's kitchen except there's no some mad chef swearing, all running well and smooth, food is fantastic! Best in the region by a long shot.
Ambient place to eat, very cozy, clean and inviting. it's like being at someone's house relaxing and having 5 star food served. No echoey uncomfortable feeling a that other restaurants give off with too much open space, This is perfect.
Not great phone signal in building, but does offer free WiFi.

Can't fault this establishment at all, the food was excellent, clean plates all round. The eating area is small enough to be cosy but not too small to be a crush. Definitely phone to book a table as it's always busy. Free on street parking outside at night or there is a large car park round the corner on Victoria Road. The servers were polite, prompt and well presented. I can highly recommend.

Lived in Kirkcaldy since birth, nearly 38 years and this was my first visit to Giovanni's.
It's a small intimate restaurant that some would say was dated in a appearance.
However first impressions most certainly are decieving, the staff and most definitely the owner were by far and away the nicest people I have met in a long time.
They were so nice that you feel a bit like family, so much so if they asked you to help with the dishes you definitely would 😊😊
The meal was excellent and so relaxed, even though they were busy a 7.30 sitting didn't end until nearly closing time as we sat chatting and drinking.
Would I return....... Definitely
Would I recommend.... Absolutely

Brilliant! Never been before & managed to book for our date night. Our table was later on at night. If I'm honest when I walked in I was a little underwhelmed, as I was expecting an ambient small romantic Italian restaurant. Its more like a little bingo hall. They were berh busy and our food took a while to come. When i did arrive it was absolutely delicious. I was pleasantly surprised. The great good made up for it all. I would definitely return.

Nice place. Food is decent not bad but I wasn't wowed, the staff is really lovely and the social distancing rules are well followed. We spent a very nice evening and we didn't realise we stayed very late (were the last to leave). And they were totally professional about it.

Spaghetti scoglio is amazing. As is the lasagna. Highly recommended. Also offer a takeaway service. 😊
