    Four friends gathered for a holiday celebration and annual reunion - Bistro Don Giovanni was the perfect place. We all dine here individually but this was the first time all together. Our waiter was wonderful as expected and very friendly. The house Don Giovanni red wine perfect. We shared a holiday appetizer and each had a different entree. We will all be back and maybe even together!

    My friends and I call ourselves the dining Divas. We get together once a month at a restaurant we haven’t been too or don’t visit often. Today was awesome. The staff was so kind and helpful. I hope we didn’t burn them out. The food was amazing. Can’t wait to go again to try something else on the yummy menu
