Excellent service – owner Rob was very attentive to our party – excellent drinks, great food.. we had appetizers for the table, pre-fix menu – I trusted Rob’s suggestion of mussels in white sauce and they did not disappoint! I can’t wait to go back and have them again.. followed thru with a delicious veal Marsala and delicious tartuffos for dessert. Live music kept the atmosphere alive (Thursday night) and I hear there’s more nights of music Friday and Saturday. Already looking forward to going back! Thank you for a great night!

Absolutely fantastic experience at Giuliana’s Ristorante! The food was delicious and full of authentic flavors, easily some of the best Italian cuisine I’ve tried. The service was friendly and attentive, making us feel welcome the entire time. The atmosphere was warm, inviting, and perfect for a relaxing meal. Will definitely be coming back and highly recommend this place to anyone looking for an amazing dining experience!

We came on a Friday. I had the fish oreganata was very good, the rest of my party were happy with their choices Veal. Service very good, atmosphere too loud for me they had a “Singer” , and people were yelling to hear each other. Mood should be less loud, the music needs to be toned down. The owner very attentive manages the restaurant like a pro, and you can see he cares about his patrons.
I’ll come back, only on another day of the week.

Let me start off by saying that I have lived on Staten Island for almost 45 years. How had I NEVER heard of this place? Well, now that I found this fabulous restaurant, I will be using them as my new go to. The food was delicious, the service was spot on & the hostess Ann Marie was an absolute sweetheart. I would recommend Giulianna’s to everyone. You won’t be disappointed. A+ & 5 stars for us. Thank you

Excellent food and service. Enjoyed a long dinner with two other couples. Everyone loved the food. Large portions. Staff did not rush us at all. The owner checked on us personally. Owner allowed any changes to the menu and off menu items. They accommodated all dieting restrictions.
That night there was a live performer. She performed two enjoyable sets and made the night even better.
We will be going back soon.

I was on my way to NJ on a Tuesday night with my wife and was looking for places to have some good dinner that has a nice atmosphere. I checked best restaurants in Staten Island and Giuliana came out on top. I was skeptical about it because nowadays reviews may not be genuine sometimes.
I placed a call to reserve a spot for two, the lady was very friendly on the phone and saved a table for us. Parking is plentiful around the block, we went in a the lady who reserved the spot greeted us and made sure we were happy with our seat. The front portion of the restaurant is small but they have a back area as well where the door is opened to the side street.
They had pre-fix dinner that usually offers only Tues – Thurs until 8pm. Since it was Tuesday, we decided to focus on the prefix dinner. The price was extremely reasonable (around $25 per person). It includes an appetizer, main course, coffee, and cheesecake. Which is unheard-of in NY. Without much expectation, I ordered the cheese and tomato while my wife ordered Mussels with red sauce as appetizers.
The portion of cheese and tomato is small but very fresh. Meanwhile the Mussels in red sauce was very good, it was fresh and no sand, the sauce was so good we dipped the bread with it. By the way, their bread is very good as well.
Here came the main course, we ordered the pork chops with peppers and macaroni. They were equally great as everything is fresh and not overly salty.
By the time we finished the main course, we were pretty full, but we still had to make room for the coffee and cheesecake. They had choice of Italian or American cheesecake, so we picked one of each to share. Both cheesecake are also very good but the American cheesecake is by far our favorites because of the texture.
Overall, a very satisfying dinner with a Mom and pop shop feel to it. The food they offer is also very unique compared to thousands of Italian restaurants that we see in NY nowadays. Highly recommended!
P.S. we ordered a cup of wine as well, it is nothing fancy. However, for $12, it is a reasonable size glass. Also, recommend bringing cash since tips has to be paid by cash. I do not know if there is any extra charge with cards.

I can’t talk highly enough of this place!!!! Absolutely incredible! BEST Italian food my boyfriend and I had in a long time on the island. Super friendly and over accommodating service with fresh and delicious food! My boyfriend requested pesto off the menu- AMAZING. Can’t wait to come back! The mussels and artichoke appetizer was so great I didn’t get to take a picture and I can’t forget to mention their cheesecake and pistachio gelato. Incredible experience!
