We ate a couple of time at Little Joeys and had really enjoyed the food both times. Unfortunately I can't say the same about Giovanni's.
I've eaten Gnocchi (potato based pasta) all my life; at restaurants, supermarket and my mother made it homemade all her life. I have to say that Giovanni's was the absolute worst I've ever had. It was more like hardened stale polenta (corn meal mush) than gnocchi. BTW, my mother made polenta with bakala (salted cod fish) and I loved it! Interestingly, when she was young, her parents would wash off the kitchen table and it was served directly on the table without dishes! Must have been a tradition in Italy. Unfortunately I've never found a restaurant that has it on their menu.
I might try Giovanni's again since one product that doesn't suit my taste, makes not a bad restaurant.
