Spaghetti Sequel

Culinary enthusiasts, book your tickets to the mid-week release (or so they promise) of Don 2, as Italian restaurant Don Giovanni readies to launch its first take-away only joint in Juhu, opposite the Marriott Hotel.

If you haven’t eaten at the restaurant before (you should choke on your spaghetti), know that Juhu’s Don Giovanni is somewhat of an institution – it also had a brief stint at Atria Mall, Worli - where many officials from the Italian embassy go to eat pizza and pasta when they’re home sick.  If you’ve dined here then you probably know that the authentic treats came with many tenets, including never ask the chef to modify the taste of your pasta and if you bring kids, they must behave.

What They’ll Serve

So in our heads, the restaurant’s soon-to-open take-away and delivery joint with its bright red sign board, will be Mumbai’s version of The Soup Nazi in TV sitcom Seinfeld. Ravenous appetites will be regimented and fed with pizza in an orderly fashion. Besides pies and pastas off the restaurant menu, this joint will also feature Focaccia from different regions of Italy, as well as a list of sandwiches.

It‘s slated to open in the first week of November, but we suggest you call the number below before you visit, in order to make sure the Don is open for business.
