Restaurants near Lions Park

We had a 7:00 p.m. reservation and was promptly seated. Our waitress was very friendly but not overdoing it. Our food came out promptly and perfect The Braciole and spicy meatballs are our go-to for appetizers and we both had a filet mignon cooked perfectly . Both me and my husband went home with leftovers because there was so much food. We go every year for our anniversary. And will continue coming back. Price is great for great food. Only complaint was multiple people going in in sweat outfits I wish they would look at the dress code a little more strictly for a high-end restaurant.

Gioia is our favorite restaurant in New Haven, Connecticut. It’s a whole experience and everything on the menu is delicious. You just gotta go there. Make a reservation first. We will keep going back!

Love having new option. A steakhouse is always a higher price point, thus expectation is higher. The venue was done well. Food was done well. If there was a 10-scall, I'd give this a 9 - SOLID. But to get a 10 it needs to be a "blow-my-socks-off" in all avenues.

Food was interesting and unusual and yummy. Lobster beet fusili was unusual and tasty. I had it as my main after delicious clam chowder. Husband had the boullabaise and could not have been happier. We were cold in the restaurant. A warm sweater would have been appreciated. Service was great until we had finished our meal.

The food and service were excellent. Love the atmosphere. The manager, Webster is excellent. Made sure we were taken care of. Highly recommend.
