Editorial Review for Cafe Giovanni – by Chad Kirtland
In Short
The main dining room invites lingering. Exposed brick, vaulted mirrors and a baby grand combine for refined romance. Window-front tables overlook passersby, reinforcing the sense of dining a world apart from the everyday. The sign says "New World Italian," but Chef Duke LoCicero imports Old-World tradition on his menu. Hearty dishes like duck and rabbit seem spawned from countryside hearths while inventive sauces flow over lamb, beef, seafood, pasta and more.

Bravo Chef Duke: Chef Duke made our first trip back to New Orleans since katrina wonderful. My husband was a bit disappointed when he did not see his favorite dish on the Menu but was more than happy to try something new. Our waiter talked with Chef Duke and he came out to our table and offered to fix it for him. It was fantastic....worth the trip from Wisconsin alone. The atmosphere is incredible. We had a wonderful romantic evening at Cafe Giovanni....we will return again and again. Thank you Chef Duke and your great staff. Sincerely Christopher and Leona Waser Wisconsin
