Twirl a Fork Into Fettuccine Alfredo at Gianna Italian Kitchen

August 4, 2016 by

While Gianna Italian Kitchen is not quite out in the country (it’s located in one of historic Tomball's small shopping plazas), regular customers single out the hometown atmosphere as a highlight of this Italian eatery.

Standouts on the menu include house-made garlic bread, crab-stuffed mushrooms, and the rich, creamy fettuccine Alfredo.
