We decided to try to get in to Jianna during restaurant week and we were graciously welcomed by Chef/owner Michael Kramer who visited with us as though we were old friends before finding us a table.

To say the food was excellent and the ambience was fantastic doesn’t do either justice. Brandon was our waiter and his culinary prowess was exquisite. He helped guide us through the evening’s delicacies and drinks with a sense of humor and passion.

We started the evening with the ricotta with Parmesan cream and my mouth still waters at the thought. My husband had the bone in pork chop which was perfectly prepared. I ordered the seared scallops with parsnip purée which was divine! We ended the evening with panacotta with lemon and it was sublime.

Chef Kramer’s dedication to excellence is evident from the moment you step into Jianna. It is a warm and inviting atmosphere with attentive staff and food that you will obsess over long after you leave. It was a wonderful experience and I highly suggest purchasing his beautiful cookbook. We can’t wait to return to Greenville as this will be our first stop.

We had an amazing experience at Jianna. Our server: Fernando was incredible – he explained everything so well, added fun moments to our evening, and even told us about the restaurant and their best dishes. He helped us customize a vegetarian, no-meat menu, which was so thoughtful.

The place is clean, welcoming, and the food and desserts were absolutely delicious. The entire staff was warm and friendly, and it truly made the experience special. Since it was my birthday, Fernando surprised us with a little treat too. He is one of the best servers I’ve ever met – he really made our day enjoyable.

Jianna absolutely deserves its Michelin Guide recognition, and our experience proved why.

I’m so glad I was able to grab a seat at the bar during the last day of restaurant week. I can say of all the new places I tried this week, Jianna was my favorite. Patrick who was waiting on me provided excellent service to begin with. Then the food was flavorful and well balanced. Overall, it was a 10/10 and I’ll definitely be coming back in the future!

Really great meal here! The burrata is a must-have and might as well get some extra bread while you’re at it. The chef’s created pastas were really well done. I got one with lobster and there was a generous portion of lobster. Very heavy handed on the garlic which isn’t necessarily bad but just know what you’re getting with that. Didn’t have room for dessert after all of the good food but would like to try that in the future. Would definitely go back. We sat outside and it was nice (other than the more-than-occasional loud car) – probably wouldn’t work in the heat of summer but was great when we were there (mid October).

Excellent dinner service! If you’re thinking of making a reservation, do it early. There’s a reason they book full every day. Also bought the cook book and absolutely love it! Hands down, must experience this venue.

Updated 1/6/26: Amazed to say the least. Took my wife out for a surprise birthday party and had been planning it all a month out. The manager Andrea helped pick out Italian food related presents for her, they printed out custom menus, and even cut and served the cake we brought. The waiter was overly knowledgeable of the food options and was a delight to have as our server.

Ate outside. Nice and quiet. Had a heater to keep us warm. Offered still or sparkling water. Jacob B was our waiter. Very attentive and explained our dishes to us in detail. We got the Radiatore, Gemelli and Fusilli. All delicious. The pasta is made fresh and lots of fresh Parmesan on top. The Fusilli has large chunks of lobster which was tender and juicy.

If you appreciate fine dining and truly professional service, Jianna is a must-visit. My wife and I were absolutely blown away by our experience here last night, one of our final dinners in South Carolina.

Staff: Our server, Matt, was phenomenal. He knew the menu inside and out, describing dishes with the knowledge and passion of a chef. He was attentive, kind, and just the right amount of funny; clearly someone who loves what he does. One of his recommendations ended up being my order, and it was spot on. The hostesses we met were equally kind and welcoming, making us feel valued at every interaction.

Food: This was, hands down, the best meal we’ve had in a long time, and we eat out often. We’ve dined in some of the finest places, and Jianna measured up to some of our favorite places. My wife has celiac disease and must avoid gluten, yet the menu here was perfect for her. Almost everything could be customized, allowing her to enjoy the same experience as everyone else. The gluten-free pasta was incredible.

I ordered the Halibut, and it was the best fish I’ve ever eaten, and I grew up on an island where seafood was a daily menu item. The Fingerling Potatoes were bursting with flavor, the Tomato Bisque was smooth and satisfying, and the Summer Salad was a fresh, light start. Every dish had brilliant flavor combinations. It’s no wonder Jianna sells a cookbook! The only regret I have is not buying one to take home so I could try my best to replicate our experience at home in my own kitchen.

Atmosphere: We dined on the outdoor patio, which was perfect. The soft sounds of the street below added to the warm feeling of the restaurant, and to top it off, a musician in the park provided live music as we ate.

We couldn’t have asked for a better evening. If we could go back tonight, we would in a heartbeat.

If you’re looking for a spot to eat… stop looking and just give them a call and reserve a seat.

We sat on the balcony overlooking the park and live music, which made the atmosphere incredibly romantic. The food was flavorful but definitely on the pricey side. The mixed drinks and wine were excellent, and our server was polite and attentive. Overall, a lovely experience.

Nothing like a tiny sign and a door in a wall to say… “We are amazing!”

Andy was fantastic from start to finish. I followed his recommendations through most of the meal as well as alcohol pairings.

Wild boar shank ravioli, leeks, shiitake mushrooms, Sicilian pistachio, pecorino
paired with the “Socrates”

Gnocchi sardi. Basil pesto sauce with hailbut, tuna, and grouper, roasted heirloom tomatos and ricotta
Paired with a white wine. Didn’t catch the type. It was Andy’s recommendation

Chocolate Pistachio Bar
Feuillentine, Chocolate Ganache, Pistachio Ricotta, Granella
Sommelier Recommends: 2020 ‘Braida’, Giacomo Bologna, Brachetto d’Acqui, Piedmont, Italy

This meal was a 10/10. Absolutely go there. It’s a MUST in Greenville.
