Wonderful family owned and run by friendly staff. Food delicious and reasonably priced. Atmosphere very friendly and service always with a smile. We revisit often, and for good reason!
We went to this local place on Friday night last week. Waited to be seated to get the table outside as we brought our pet dog. We happened to be served by this staff, a lady whom is really nice and polite at the waiting station area. She accomodated us with a friendly service, made everything so easy and smooth. Very prompt, brought us glasses of wine (byo), water and menu right away!
We then ordered pasta and salad, came out its Yummo! made with loves. Offered us with extra pepper, chilly flakes :) We really could not fault anything that night. Excellent customer service plus yummo food, nothing can beat that!
Thanks Giardino Pizza team for such a friendly smile and great service. Keep up the good work! Cheers.
Best pizza in Melbourne đź‘Ś
Feels like a relaxed cosy family restaurant and the staff are very friendly. Great for both eat in and take away.
The food is tasty and hot (I hate being served up food that's been sitting on the bench for ten minutes before reaching the table), the service is friendly and fast. I've never had a tiramisu like it, fresh, light and boozy, just the way I like it. In summer and on days I'd rather not cook, Giardino's has become a regular
The food is good. Unfortunately the staff and service was not up to the same standard the staff stuffed up our order twice which led to huge delays.
They have good pizza and lots of toppings ontop. They also have fantastic pasta, although their gnocchi is a bit too dry.
They always greet you with a smile when you walk in.
This is my favourite pizza place in the world.
This place is fantastic! It's like every single pizza topping has been meticulously thought out... Not just handfuls of everything with too much cheese to drown out the taste. The decor reminds me of being a kid, just feels like going to someone's house for dinner. Only downfall is the wine list, beer is good though.
Amazing good, had the best Bruchetta and huge Flounder. I couldnt finish the food. They were very busy, and waitresses still kept up with our needs.
Having been eating at this restaurant several times, I can definitely say that it serves very nice proper Italian dishes, always fresh and tasty. The antipasto is quite remarkable and so are the main courses. The pizza is well above average. The atmosphere is the one of a typical Italian country restaurant. The only suggestion I have is that the place could do with a revamp, having been tere for many years.
Nice homemade pizza, nice foccacia nice gelato!!!The service is good and restaurant looks clean. Just like this place and definitely will come again
Just left Giardino, had heard all good things so i thought it must good. We were not disappointed.. Food was beautiful, fresh and tasty. Went with a group had pizzas pastas and risotto!! All delicious. Would definately come back again and recommend to others.
They made a customised pasta for me with basil pesto and pine nuts. That's pretty awesome! It was yumm! Service is nice too! Thanks guys

My fav local. I moved into the area about 12mths ago now & this place has been my fav local. I come here all the time with my family & we all absolutely love it. The food is amazing & the waiters/staff are always wonderful. I highly recommend it.
Wowee. going home very happy. splendid pizza. 11/10
Italian Pizza !!!!. Oh how wonderful it was to rediscover authentic Italian pizza here at Giadino's. Having visited Italy and finding that aussie pizzas were but a pale imitation of a real pizza, eating at Giadino's was like being again in Sienna. A family restaurant atmosphere adds to the Italian flavour. Good service, great prices and authentic Italian pizza!
Love this place. You can count on a good meal at a great price. The staff are friendly and the pizzas are the best I've had. Recommend it to all
Best pizza in the area and we have tried a few! Good traditional pizzas and the price is very reasonable. Pepperoni has a bit of spice to it which is great. We always pick up so its piping hot! I havent tried the gourmet pizzas so I can not comment there. Have tried Crust Pizza - bad, Baked in Elwood - Bad, Dinos - yuk! Won't be disappointed.
Perfect pizza served by perfect gentlemen - good old fashioned pizza and service 9/10
Fresh fresh food, delicious simple meals cooked well. Pizza is great and coffee good too! All round terrific family friendly place with good food & atmosphere 8/10!!

Went for dinner last night and the service was wonderful! Frank was very friendly and our waitress (didn't get her name) was amazing!
The food was yummy and very reasonably priced.
This was a great first experience at Giardino Pizza and Pasta and I am looking forward to going again.
Thank you! 10/10 :)
Went for my niece and nephews birthday party. My husband and I used go there all the time when we lived in the neighborhood 20yrs ago. Great to see nothing has changed, it's still a greatly run family business and the food and customer service was impeccable. There were a few of us and everyones order was correct. Will definitely be back xx
Went to Giardino's tonight for a belated birthday dinner, after it was recommended by a colleague. It didn't disappoint. My friend and I were delighted with everything we ordered (cheesy garlic pizza not pictured as it was devoured too quickly!). We had vegetarian pizza, Greek lamb salad, strawberry crepes & churros. The wait staff were lovely and managed to find us a table even though I'd made the rookie mistake of not booking ahead! The serves were generous and both took some of main meal home, so we could fit in dessert! Will definitely back, hopefully soon!
NO DELIVERY!
Very torn with this place as I genuinely love the pizza but delivery is simply not an option anymore. I waited 90min for delivery on a Friday night and 30min past my nominated delivery time. I called the shop for them to say it was 5min away - 20min later still nothing so called again. Left on hold for another 5min, was told driver is just parking and was 1 min away. Pizza came 5 mins after that.
Pizza was again outstanding and free choc mousse was a nice touch but delivery service needs a lot of work. This unfortunately isn’t a one time issue.
When you walk in to Giardino, the aroma alone tells you that the food is going to be good. I can’t tell you how long I was looking for an authentic Italian restaurant that wasn’t poncy and just served great food. This is not one of those restaurants that has two pastas & three pizzas and calls itself an Italian restaurant: the menu is extensive and reasonably priced.
I’ve been here many times and never had a bad meal; even takeaway is the same quality as that served in the restaurant.
It gets busy, so remember you’re at dinner not a McDonald’s: take the time to enjoy.
If there is one thing I would improve it’s the lighting: definitely too bright and can be a bit “dining hall”, but other than that, great find!
