About

Don Giovanni has been serving delicious, affordable Italian cuisine in the Theater District for almost a quarter of a century. We are wholly a family affair, and our traditional Neapolitan restaurant boasts both a warm atmospheres and a lovely outdoor cafe. Pizzas are Don Giovanni’s specialty, with over twenty to choose from. Baked in our old fashioned coal fired brick oven, the dough is thin, crisp, and bursting with flavor. Fan favorites include our traditional Margherita Pizza, Quattro Formaggi, Pizza Pomodori, and White Clam Pizza.

Best pizza in town

We went to Don Giovanni on a casual night with friends. The pizza was delicious, and the service is OUTSTANDING, specially Asaf, taking care of our every need. It’s a 5/5 stars + 1.

Always my First stop in Manhattan

I have probably eaten at Don Giovanni more than 50 times. discovered it walking around new york with friends back in 2001. It has become our " place" in Manhattan. We always start with a meal here, usually visit late night after shows, and try...to grab our last meal there on the way out of the city. The food is fabulous. my daughter always gets lobster ravioli. We love the house salad - always seems fresher than the salads we get at home. garlic knots with marinara are the best! We always have Pizza and spaghetti with meat sauce. Both are among the best i have had anywhere- including in Italy. We have tried many menu items through the years- most were fabulous. Service is very good to excellent all the time, Prices seem fine to me, probably on the lower side for what they offer.More

Theater Night

Theater Night: we were going to see a play and we went to pick up our tickets at the box office we asked for a place for a nice dinner. He immediately said to walk down the block to Giovanni. Upon walking in the place...is an old style family restaurant. The food was delicious and the house wine was fine. We enjoyed our meal, eat garlic knots and drank wine and still had time to make the show. If you on seeing a play on West 44 street take the walk down the block to Giovanni and have a nice Italian dinner.More

Incredible Pizzas

We had a lovely meal here, not too far from Times Square, traditional Italian, would thoroughly recommend the pizzas, please note the large ones are enormous but you can take the rest away with you. Special mention to our server, he was a lovely guy.

Locals' Italian... great theatre district choice

Enjoy the delicious, well-priced food in this historic space; the former Caroline's Comedy Club where so many NY comedians got their start. The friendly staff seems always able to squeeze you in. This is a great spot to keep in mind when you are in...Hell's Kitchen.More

Fabulous pizza!

Wonderful experience. We had burrata, portabella mushrooms and calamari for an appetizer. All excellent. 4 different pizzas: margherita, meat, white, and fig/goat cheese. As they advertise, best brick oven pizza in the city! Amazing service. Ask for Asaf. He made our dining experience the best!
