The best Italian food I've had has never been in places that I would call fine dining. It's always been in little places.
I grew up in a very Italian city just outside of Boston. The best Italian food I ever had was my mother's. Outside of that it was little hole in the wall places in my home town and in East Boston and the Boston's equivalent to Little Italy, The North End.
Giovanni's is much more than a pizza place and is very good Italian food. Probably the best I've had around here.
By the way, if I see a restaurant that has the words Italian and Fine Dining attached to it, I stay away. They're usually not very authentic Italian and usually overpriced.
BTW, there is an excellent Italian place on Clearwater Beach called Al and Stella's that is also very good.
