Giorgio's Italian Food & Pizzeria--San Jose Lively chatter and the aroma of garlic are the first things you notice when you walk in the door of Giorgio's Italian Food & Pizzeria. The interior is warm, friendly, and classically "Italian" (complete with red-checkered tablecloths). It is perfect for romantic couples, as well as the entire family. The restaurant has an open kitchen, where patrons can watch the cooks "hand toss" the pizza dough and prepare entire meals. Giorgio's has become the pizza "mecca" of the South Bay area. Don't look for yuppie pizza here. We feature authentic Italian pie that can be topped with your choice of items or one of the house combos.

good food, family style Italian  3 Star Rating - Satisfactory

Giorgios has good food in a family friendly atmosphere. The waits have always been long when we've gone there and the service a bit slow. I recommend making reservations or going on off-hours.

PROS: good food
CONS: long waits

pizza at its best  4 Star Rating - Very good

Giorgios is a must for pizza lovers. Their pizza is consistently excellent loaded with lots of cheese and toppings. It's just as good taken out as it is to go. The other food is wonderful too, and portions are never skimpy. I grew up loving Giorgios, and its continued to be a tradition with my family.

Great food, great restaurant  5 Star Rating - World class

Weve celebrated many family birthdays and holidays at our favorite Italian restaurant at Giorgios. The food is always great and the staff is friendly and they smile a lot! Whether dining in or take out, the quality and value is number one. The family friendly environment makes going out to dinner very convenient and carefree. Giorgios is always on my list when splurging on my diet!

Great Family Restaurant!  4 Star Rating - Very good

We Love Giorgio's. The staff is friendly, the food is consistently good, the service rarely disappoints, and they are great with kids.
We eat at the Foxworthy location 1X every week or 2, and we have never been disappointed. It is a lot of food for a good price (so don't over order).
And can be a little loud on some nights - but we like that because we have a 2 yr old and the background noise tends to drown out any noise that she makes.

Take out is available as well as catering (not sure if they deliver for catering though)

after 22 years I still love this place 5 Star Rating - World class

I remember when this restaurant was half the size it is now and was just making a name for itself. The food was excellent then as it still is now. The only difference is there is always a waiting list at dinner time now. Do not be afraid to order anything on the menu. It's all delicious!

Pros: one of the best pizza's in town
Cons: always a wait as this place is really popular with the locals

I have been going to Giorgio's for 15 yrs, by far there in nothing on the menu that I do not like. Great place to take the kids, you can have italian cuisine and the kids authentic hand tossed pizza.

Pros: Great food and service
Cons: Sometimes long wait to be seated

Willow Glen Tradition 5 Star Rating - World class

I've been going to Giorgios for 35 years and it is by far the best Italian food in the San Jose area! Part of the Frankie, Johnnys chain, this was the first and still the best! From their hand tossed pizza, pasta or chicken the food is very tasty & very filling! (Be prepared to take some home with you.)
If your looking for a light bill of fare or vegetarian, go find a salad bar, this is real food

Most nights you will wait to be seated due to the number of people dinning there. They will bring you drinks while waiting if you ask for them. Wednesdays is family night with a special meal for groups and there are daily specials as well. Once you get seated you will be taken care of just like at grandmas.

Enjoy!

Pros: Great food, good value.
Cons: You will wait to be seated.

Poor Service Good Food 3 Star Rating - Satisfactory

Nobody in the front to seat us for a long time. Even though we insisted that all food needs to be meatless, they had the wrong sauce with the meat in it. Did not even apologize when they saw that they had screwed up. Too busy to even bring serving spoons with food. The food was tasty, though.

Pros: Good food, Family Friendly
Cons: Poor service
