Reviews for Il Giardino Ristorante in Virginia Beach, VA
Hands down some of the best food I've ever eaten. The fiance and I found this place online and stopped in during our vacation... here earlier today and boy are we glad we did. We didn't have reservations but we were able to sit at the bar with the full menuand the food was so amazing by the time we finished our appetizer we were talking about making reservations before we leave.When we left we did exactly that and can't wait to come back Wednesday. Authentic and delicious Italian food. Read more
Recommend reservations, we walked in and were put on wait list decided to make reservations for the following night. Very... elegant restaurant, servers all in black but the patrons were dressed casual. Prices were as expected at a fine dining venue.Our server Pierre was attentive but not overbearing. Food was exceptional and came out steaming hot. Our reservations were for 6and they were not crowded but by 6:30 all the tables were full. Read more
We tried it all from appetizers, drinks, kids meals, entrees and dessert! Fantastic recommendation from a friend. Everything... tasted delicious and the portion sizes were huge. The ambience and service are great and the live music is a nice touch. Read more
This was a great food experience. I ate at the bar and the bartenders were attentive and answered questions. The Mozzarella... Caprese was very nice. The tomatoes were fresh and the oil and balsamic vinegar were added after delivery. I choose the marinaraover a gluten free pasta and it was splendid. The sauce was out of this world. I could eat it daily. The crème brûlée fordesert was fine, but I have high standards for this desert. All in all it was a very enjoyable dining experience. Oh.. and thelive music selections were interesting. We went down with the ship with the Titanic theme song and then followed that up with the Charlie Brown theme song?.definitely entertaining Read more

I am absolutely going back andrecommend everyone go and have the spaghetti with meatballs! Read more
My daughter and I were on vacation and I googled best Italian restaurants near our hotel and this place came up. YEEEEES!!! I've... been in Food and Beverage for a very long time. I am a Culinary Supervisor at a Casino and I've had my fair share of Italiancuisine. This place without a doubt is the best Italian restaurant I've ever been to. Our server Steve or Steven (sorry) wasfunny and attentive. The ambience was perfect! The gentlemen playing the piano was fantastic! I had veal piccata and my daughterhad fried mozzarella and clams with linguine. My veal was cooked perfectly and the sauce aaaahhh! LOL! My only tip is to make areservation so you and your guest can be accommodated in a timely fashion. I went on a Wednesday night. I can only imagine aFriday or Saturday night! I plan to visit this place whenever I come to Virginia Beach!!! Oh, the video I couldn't help it. Mydaughter was like Mom no. Haha! Read more
