Why We Love Gianni’s Steakhouse
Gianni’s is Wayzata’s old-school steakhouse, with white tablecloths, an extensive wine selection and the kind of service that makes a birthday or anniversary feel like an event.
The patio is heated when the weather cools, which stretches the outdoor season, and boaters can order dockside takeout.
