Restaurant description

Villa san Giovanni is a proud Italian, family owned, restaurant that's been in existence since 1981.

Started by founder, owner and chef, Giovanni Maiorana (having just arrived from Italy), he was then joined by sons Christian and Luca years later. It is unlikely that you will find another family owned restaurant with the persistence and commitment that?s been devoted to Villa San Giovanni over the years. It boasts an indulgent compilation of fine Italian cuisine with a classic rendering of Italian sophistication as well as a feeling of homely warmth.

The food is a celebration of predominantly southern Italian flavours, where homemade pasta is always the flavour of the day. From the lasagne to the gnocchi, cannelloni to individually made ravioli, you can be assured that all these speciality dishes are always freshly made in the kitchen under the watchful eye of Giovanni.

Our pizza is what we are famous for but, rest assured, our steaks and seafood are sourced from the best, ensuring a top quality product all year round.

What?s good food without good wine? Over the years we have made sure that both the wine and food are of an impeccable standard and we are proud to be part of the Diners Club Platinum Wine Award Winners boasting a wide range of South African, Italian and International wines.

Constant attention to detail, continuous improvements over the years and the pursuit of upmarket hospitality has created a restaurant where Italian passion flows through every crevice of its cosy decor, waiting to entice your senses.

Situated at Wonderboom Airport in Pretoria, the restaurant is easily accessible from the N4
highway and has become the ideal dining choice in Pretoria. With the sliding doors sectioning the
restaurant, it makes it an ideal venue for private functions, special occasions and milestone events.

Let us not convince you any further. We invite you to come and experience our friendly Italian culture and great food for yourself.
