Reviews for Gardina's Kitchen & Bar in Oshkosh, WI
First time here, same owners at Ruby Owl, but different ambiance and menu. I had a New York strip and my wife had the walnut... encrusted salmon. Both dishes were flavorful and would definitely order them again. Bartender was friendly and made a greatspecialty cocktail. If you enjoy bourbon, this is a must stop. Small liquor store in the back that is well stocked with spirits.Don't forget to join the bourbon club. We'll be back soon! Read more
My wife really likes this place and is always asking to go, but I?m not a big fan. After tonight I?m even less of a fan. I... ordered the Mac and Cheese and it had absolutely NO flavor. Tasted like they forgot to drain the water from the pasta and youcan judge for yourself in the picture below. For what its worth their bruschetta is the best I?ve had but sadly the kitchencan?t even make a simple dish like Mac and Cheese. Making matters even worse we had to wait over an hour for the entrees (and 25minutes to just order the entrees). Even my wife was unimpressed tonight. Very disappointing!! Read more
We were so excited to celebrate my birthday with a 6:15pm reservation. At 7:40, we decided to push our reservation at Paine's... Nature of Light to 8:40. At 8pm, we asked the waitress (who was sharing no information with us), if she could check on thekitchen. She came back 10 minutes later and told us there were still 5 tickets ahead of us and we would miss the Paine. Wedecided to leave. Our food would have taken almost 3 hours... We all have service industry background and respect the process.Would have loved to dine with you! The menu looked good and we were comped our appetizers. But watching the tables around usarrive after us, get their food, then get their plates remade, it was pretty frustrating. Felt like others needed to know and beprepared. Read more
The Shrimp Prosciutto Fettuccine, Braised Beef Ravioli, and Chocolate Raspberry Mousse Cake were all terrific. But the star of... the show was the Ricotta Cheesecake! It was so amazingly perfect! This place has a nice vibe and comfortable atmosphere. I'dcertainly come back ... especially for the cheesecake. Read more
This is the best restaurant I've found in Oshkosh, Neenah, Appleton, and Green Bay all put together. The food is delicious,... prices are fair for the quality, service is friendly and quick, ambience is nice. You can pay twice as much at some places for ameal not half as good. The pasta dishes are especially delicious and desserts are a bargain, appetizers are yummy and fairlypriced. Very tasty craft cocktails, too. The liquor store is very good and they offer some exclusive liquors you won't findanywhere else. We got a bottle of bourbon as a gift that was truly special, the best and smoothest I've ever had. Highlyrecommend! Read more

Truly a wonderful dining experience. The service was fantastic, the food was expertly prepared, and the bourbon selection was a... very happy surprise. Most importantly, Gardina's had a lot of delicious options to accommodate celiac diners, includinggluten-free bread for the appetizer. Would recommend to anyone looking for a great night out. Check out the wine and bourbonselection in the market for a bottle to take home with you! Read more
I LOVED this place and can't wait to go back! The food was delicious. I'm not a pasta person but tried a pasta dish and now... can't stop thinking about it. The flavors were exceptional! Our waitress was unbelievable as well, so friendly, nice, andattentive. She helped us choose a delicious win selection and it set the tone. For dessert, we tried two both delicious but theraspberry crumble was SO GOOD. I highly recomemd for business or pleasure and I can't wait to go back! Read more
