how long is a meal at Chops and Giovanni's?

[cathydev]

I am making dinner reservations at Chops and Giovanni's Table and would like to know how long to plan on being at the restaurants for the meal service.

It really depends on you but safe to say about two hours to enjoy your meal.

Also, if you have time contraints, make it clear to your server up front. They aim to please.

I would go on a night that you could just relax and enjoy the venue. If you are in a rush that kind of spoils the meal.

As long as you want. relax and enjoy.

DH and I ate at Chops on Enchantment back in May. I strongly suggest that you go without time constraints. The staff is soooo friendly and accomodating, and they provided a wonderful meal experience. We took about an hour and a half to complete every course from appetizer through dessert. We sat by a window and watched the world go by...it was really a great night! :)

We were going to say about 1 1/2 to 2 hours on average.

 

Not something you want to rush...but still respectful of other reservations.

If you budget two hours, you should have no problems. We ate at both on Oasis. Even at 150 Central Park, we budgeted two hours and never felt rushed.

Going on Oasis, which restaurant did you like most and why or what does each type serve?

Giovanni's is my favorite. A casual place to eat with very good food. Go hungry. Well worth the charge. Chops is my second favorite specialty restaurant.

On Oasis we had dinner at Giovanni's, Chops, and 150 Central Park. Totally enjoyed all three. Loved Giovanni's so had dinner there three nights! In each it took about two hours which was fine with us since we were in no hurry. :)

I also want to mention that the portions are huge. It really is not in anyone's best interest to rush that meal...there is SO much food to enjoy in each course. Take your time and savor every bite ;)

[TEXASMUNK]

I urge you to ask for small portions of things you have never had before! The entire menu is truly great! We have formed the BAD habit of spending many evenings there...Thought we would miss Portofino, but Giovanni can wow you!!!!!

I think it said on the day planner to allow 2 hrs for your meals ! There is never a rush nd I think most of the times we have eaten there it was just over 2 hrs....and we'll worth it !

Sound good! thanks, also when I clink on the link in the above posts for the dining guide, it says my computer says it isn't safe, anybody else have any problems or have another website, etc

At least 2 hours for Chops Grille. A bit less for Giovannni's.
