Purchase options and add-ons

A collection of recipes and anecdotes, inspired by the world famous restaurant Joanne Trattoria, owned by Joe Germanotta, father of Lady Gaga.

Family, food, and love are the foundation upon which Joe and Cynthia Germanotta raised their daughters. Built on those same principles, the Germanottas family-run restaurant is world-renowned for its vibrant hospitality, delicious Southern Italian fare, and warm familial atmosphere. Named in honor of Joe’s sister who died of Lupus three months shy of her 20th birthday, Joanne Trattoria is more than a neighborhood restaurant; it is a mecca for Lady Gaga fans, a frequent gathering place for celebrities and notable New Yorkers, and a home to its faithful regulars and devoted staff.



In his debut cookbook, Joe shares a mix of time-tested family recipes and house favorites—such as Joanne’s Meatballs, Papa G’s Chicken Scarpariello, and the unforgettable Nutellasagna—and for the first time recounts his inspirational story of fulfilling his lifelong dream of opening his own restaurant. With never-before released family photos, heartwarming testimonials and entertaining anecdotes from the extended Joanne family, as well as a moving foreword by the Germanottas’ older daughter, Golden Globe®- and six-time Grammy®-winning, Academy Award-nominated global icon Lady Gaga,
Joanne Trattoria Cookbook: Classic Recipes and Scenes from an Italian-American Restaurant will delight both fans and foodies alike.

About the Author

Joe Germanotta, or “Mr. G,” was born August 9, 1957 in Elizabeth, New Jersey and is the father of Stefani and Natali Germanotta. He has been married to Cynthia Bissett Germanotta since 1983, when the two wed in New York City in the small chapel at the historic St. Patrick’s Cathedral.

He is a graduate of The School of Hospitality Business, an industry-specific school within the Eli Broad College of Business at Michigan State University. A devoted Spartan Basketball fan, he is a passionate supporter of the team during the “March Madness” NCAA tournament.

For thirty-five years, Mr. G has worked for large corporations, owned and operated several businesses, and now works as part of his daughter’s management team. In addition to his work in the music industry, Mr. G sits on the board of directors for Lady Gaga’s charitable organization, Born This Way Foundation.

Joanne Trattoria is his inaugural food-industry endeavor and the realization of his boyhood dream of owning a restaurant.

Reviewed in the United States on January 6, 2017
Having had the pleasure of dining at both Joanne and the predecessor restaurant many times, I was eager to read the story of the restaurant, the Germanotta family and learn how to prepare some of my favorite dishes. This book scored on all counts but, most importantly, in learning how the Germanottas are so well-grounded by two incredibly loving parents. I'm a big believer that a restaurant's ambiance either enhances or detracts from how the food tastes and the beautiful renovation of the space combined with knowing how close the Germanottas are as a family assures you of a delicious experience. After reading about Joe, Cynthia, Stefani, Natali, all of the incredible staff and, of course, Joanne, I cannot wait to prepare some dishes and also return to Joanne Trattoria for some unforgettable Italian food. The Nutellasagna is a "bucket list" item!

This is more than just a cookbook; it tells the story of a beautiful, loving, Italian-American family. Reading it, I had a smile on my face, from cover to cover. You get never before seen family photos, recipes for appetizers, entrees, desserts and even drinks. I will very much enjoy fixing an Italian dinner for my loved ones, with this truly special book. Thank you to the Germanotta family, for sharing your lives with us and for bringing so much love and kindness to the world.

So far I have only tried one recipe, but it was flavorful and tasted wonderful. A lot of work to bring the sauce to perfection, but well worth the time and effort.
Reviewed in the United States on January 17, 2017
I purchased this cookbook as a gift for my brother who has eaten at Joanne Trattoria in NYC and is also a Lady Gaga fan. He was very excited about it. He said the recipes are all very good and the book is a fun keepsake. I thought the cookbook was going to be larger in size, it's kind of small, but I guess that doesn't matter. Also, all of the print and photos are all in black and white, not in color, which I thought was strange..it made it seem somewhat "cheap" to me, but it didn't seem to bother my brother. If you're a huge fan of this restaurant or Lady Gaga, I think you'll enjoy this!

Bought this as a gift for roommate since she's Italian just like Lady Gaga's family and she loves to cook. And I'm a huge fan of Lady Gaga.

Smaller than it looks on photo but jame packed with original recipes and lots of photos. If you’re a Gaga fan, you need this book.

Reviewed in Canada on April 15, 2017
I LOVE THIS BOOK. The recipes are AMAZING. I have worked as a cook/chef for several resturants over the years, so i know good food. This cook book is filled with impressive recipients and stories behind them as well. If you are not even a Lady Gaga fan its still worth the purchase to add to your cook book collection.

5.0 out of 5 stars Endlich!
Reviewed in Germany on July 25, 2017
Lange habe ich gewartet, bis das Buch endlich über Amazon zu bestellen war.
Es ist hochwertig gestaltet und zeigt auch private Momente aus der Familie Germanotta. Für einen Fan auf jeden Fall ein "Muss", da es ja leider gerade von Lady Gaga nicht viele Fanartikel zu kaufen gibt.
Die Rezepte sind liebevoll gestaltet und laden zum Nachkochen ein, was ich leider noch nicht gemacht habe und deswegen die Rezepte nicht beurteilen kann.

5.0 out of 5 stars Lovely little book.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 11, 2017
What a lovely little book. I wouldn't class myself as a Lady GaGa can but I was intrigued by pics of this book on Instagram. My name is Joanna so I liked the fact it (almost) had my name on the front. It's only a small book but contains stories, photographs and authentic Italian recipes for food and cocktails. I'm really pleased with the purchase.
