They charge 18% operation fee + tax instead of tips. It seems this restaurant is on the anti-tip movement. I agreed with that mind, but that mind affected the service mind also, I guess. The employees (about 10 or fewer people) eat and chat while only 2 tables of customers(4 people) have dinner quietly. I had never seen this kind of scene before at the restaurant. I feel I was uninvited guest of their party.
The food was good, though. But I would not come back to this restaurant.

Pricey but very good. The spicy seafood pasta (not always available) was tasty and *very* plentiful. Service was efficient; noise level was quite high. I don’t get the negative reviews, which by my experience, are undeserved.

Great Italian food! Pasta is fresh, although on the saltier side. Appetizer, Dessert and drinks are amazing also!

What could be better than handmade pasta, delicious wine, and a beautiful outdoor balcony? This place is incredible. Definitely worth checking out. Also their desserts are made in house – we had the chocolate torte and the tiramisu. Both were light and savory. Will definitely be back as soon as possible.

First time here, we had 6 in our party for 5:30 reservation. Sat us immediately with only 2 other occupied tables. The service was slow and unprofessional and she wasn’t a teenager. The restaurant wasn’t busy when we got there, so no excuse. Took 30 minutes to get one of our drinks and a request for a second drink was never served. We got a lot of “sorry”. We ordered garlic bruschetta. It was NOT brushetta, it was basic garlic bread. Focaccia was very plain with few spices. The menu when we arrived was shockingly limited compared to the online version….not even close. Plus there is a disclaimer that states an 18% “operations charge” which is taxable is added to the bill (even if the service is bad). Just too many negatives for this “upscale” establishment that I cannot recommend. We will not be returning. Read the reviews on Trip Advisor…..owner doesn’t care! Food is mediocre at best.

Amazing Italian food & provisions place off 9G in Tivoli. They also have meat & veggie lasagnas, parmigianas and soups to prepare at home. I loved the affogato after my perfectly prepared tagliatelle!

We have been wanting to try this restaurant for a bit now and finally went today. We were not disappointed! Delicious Italian food! We started with arancini, which were great, as was the sauce they were accompanied by. My wife got the Parma panini (prosciutto, mozzarella, and tomato), and I got the Tagliatelle alla Bolognese. Both excellent. Dessert was expresso and tiramisu. Again both excellent with the tiramisu made as it should be! Chef Francesco definitely knows what he’s doing and the staff was friendly and attentive as well. Highly recommended!

We are patrons since Gio Batta opened. The wonderful atmosphere, Francesco’s lovingly-crafted & beautiful foods, and the excellent, attentive and well-trained staff combine to make this our go-to restaurant in Tivoli, and always a dinner visit when we’re in the area. You’ll taste the love, and whatever your meal selection you can’t go wrong. Enjoy!

Nice Italian restaurant, you can buy Imported goods and have a breakfast here.
This time i went for lunch and everything was good. Goat cheese gnuti are worth a try.
The tiramisu was too big and not to my taste.
