Our waiter, Kevin, was the real deal. Awesome wine selection, pasta, short rib, and atmosphere. Best Italian in Birmingham--never disappoints.

We love this restaurant...tonight we received the worst menu and service EVER! Menu was not accurate to what was actually serviced. Service was sub par...not to standard normally provided by restaurant. Very disappointed with experience.

Shared a Valentines meal with another couple. Was reminded of the things we all appreciate at GM. The unique atmosphere & outstanding food. The service this night, however, was exceptional. Laurin was our server & despite a full house, was both patient & on top of special requests. Well done!Dietary restrictions: Laurin did a great job helping us navigate the best options.

A great place to have food and a glass of wine! Their short rib is one million percent recommended. It is the best!

Second favorite place in Birmingham besides Ches Fonfon. Awesome steak and their specials are always really, really good. Best Mac n cheese on earth. Waitstaff is impeccable

Best chicken parmigiana I've ever had. Very unique sauce. Fried cheese app was delicious. Smaller dining room that had a great atmosphere. Nice bar area as well.

A true Birmingham classic. The food is great, and the atmosphere is nice, smallish & slightly crowded, but not in a bad way. It is quite expensive, and you'll need a reservation. There is a wine bar in the back that occasionally has space for walk-ins.
Beef cheeks, you saw it right, beef cheeks! If you’re going make this dish, you know what you’re doing! Super cool hidden gem of Birmingham. Very Italian feel, close tables, loud, incredible service, and amazing food. Bombolini, veal chop parmesan, and the beef cheeks were out of this world!

We had a 7pm reservation for our anniversary and were promptly seated, service was appropriately timed and thorough. We started with drinks and both are tasty and strong. Appetizers were great, the burrata was hands down our favorite dish of the night. The honey and bresaola were amazing complements to the cheese. The oysters and my husband's veal Parmesan were good and tasty, as was my grouper. My server asked if I wanted to swap out the potatoes that came with it since I swapped the marinara sauce for lemon butter but I was really excited for potatoes. When the entrees came out and she saw my plate, she immediately asked me if there were enough potatoes and offered to get me an extra side. And you can't go wrong with tiramisu, also very tasty! Service and food were top notch. Good vibes on a Tuesday night, decently crowded but not crazy loud or anything. 10/10 worth the hype and would recommend you go try it for yourself!

The lasagna is to die for. Do yourself a favor and make a reservation here. So good and if you look at the pictures, you can see that we are every last bite. If you get here early, go out back to the wine bar for a drink. So cute and the bartender was very knowledgeable about wine!!

Gianmarco stands by itself in the Birmingham market for great places to enjoy a meal and some wine. The fact you need to plan ahead to get on their invited list says it all!
