    Wow! I can’t say enough good things about Giardino. From the service to the food to the cocktails, everything was phenomenal. The flavors were perfection and complemented each other in such a good way. The ambiance in the restaurant was cheerful and bright—definitely will be such a compliment to this beautiful city. Downtown Aurora has needed a concept like this for a long time and Giardino did not miss the mark. The meatballs were so flavorful, the burrata and prosciutto—chefs kiss! We had three pizzas and two different pastas, all of which were so delicious. I am so so happy that this gem is right in downtown Aurora. I can’t wait to come back again!

    What an amazing place!! The big windows make the view from the street so inviting. The warmth of the ambiance was perfect for a girls’ night, date night and even family gathering. The staff was lovely and attentive, wine selections are great and the food was incredible. You MUST try this place!

    We were seated right away, but sat at our table for a least 5 minutes before anyone approached table and it was only to put down carafe of water on the table . The server then approached our table about 2 minutes after . The food was good, my salmon was slightly too crusty like it was in oven a few minutes too long . Overall it was good but to charge the prices they are charging you need to be spot on 100% and they were not .

    Beef Medallion dinner was a 10/10! We had 2 appetizers, Arancini which was the best we ever had - and Calamari Fritto which was also excellent with a hint of Italian spices. The other thing that I want to mention is that they offer high quality wines which were pleasing to our pallet. The atmosphere of Giardinos was beautiful, and the prices are reasonable. We will be going back!

    The food and service were very good. We were there on the soft opening and sometimes there are glitches when a restaurant first open, but not here. We will definitely dine here again. Downtown Aurora definitely needs a reasonably priced restaurant that is close to the theater district. Hoping they will be open late on show nights.
