Our Sicilian Steakhouse is an original concept that celebrates the Sicilian-immigrant culinary experience. Referred to as the "original fusion cuisine," Sicilian food is a historical mosaic influenced by the various conquering nations. Traces of Greece, North Africa, Rome, the Middle East, Germanic nations, France, Spain, and Italy are evident in traditional Sicilian cuisine. At Giancarlo's, our love of history-rich Sicilian cuisine is combined with our interpretation of both the great American Steakhouse and the Neapolitan Pizzeria.

    It all started off with a very warm welcome by the hostess. A very friendly greeting to it. When sitting at the bar waiting for our table it was very pleasant. bartenders were very attentive. Our waiter Chris was excellent , beyond excellent. his side kick was also excellent. the attention to detail by these professional`s was amazing. the food was delicious. We live in Rochester and wished it was as good as the buffalo branch. Rochester B&B has a very cold feeling to it and a different vibe to it. Hope to be back VERY soon....

    Wonderful experience! My husband and I went out for dinner to celebrate my new job, and we are so glad we went to Jazzboline! You have to try the Lamb Meatballs app - the cheese sauce they come with is amazing. My husband had the short ribs and I had the natural chicken breast meal - both mouthwatering. I couldn’t decide on a wine to go with my meal so I thought I’d ask for a recommendation…Jonathan, the restaurant manager, suggested Rainstorm Pinot noir, and he was spot on! Finished out the dinner with the crème brûlée - just incredible all around. Olivia our waitress was attentive, never had to wait for anything. Highly recommend to anyone who wants delicious food, fantastic service, with a great atmosphere!

    At 630 pm Via open table arranged 715 time,, called by hostess heads-up running late asked about possible accepting later time which was fine with us, glad we arrived at 8 and hostess very accommodating; offered us table in dining room or the lounge which was quieter with college football on with volume off and fireplaces warm. Waiter and hostess very attentive; we split fig pizza slightly sweet and perfectly made, and seafood with risotto which had abundant well cooked seafood and of course perfect risotto. Negronis were excellent and reasonably priced. We had a pleasant evening of conversation, food, football and great service. Great place to eat.
