History
TRADITION & QUALITY
On a trip to Florence, Italy in 1983, Il Giardino founder Tony Gargiulo saw a wood-burning oven and knew it would be the centerpiece for the soon-to-open restaurant. The first in Virginia, our oven serves up fresh focaccia bread and pizza to order.

Thomas R:
Some of my top business partners live in the area and suggested we do dinner here. With a large group (14 people) they never missed a beat!! Service is outstanding, extremely attentive, knowledgeable, and very friendly. The menu has many excellent choices, food is a "10", and price is very reasonable. Highly recommend and I'll definitely go back when I'm in the area.

Another of our top 3 dinners during our weeklong vacay. We didn't have a reservation but they squeezed us in. Both our server & the hostess were lovely--polite, professional, friendly...Not sure if it was because it was a weekend, but they had a musician in the bar area that did a great job performing various songs. Wonderful date night type atmosphere. Husband & I both got cocktails we enjoyed--lime in the coconut & blackberry spritz respectively. Both were delicious & refreshing...

We had a wonderful time at IL Giardino. We didn't have a reservation, but they were able to quickly squeeze us in, and we had the great fortune to be seated near their entertainer who played the piano, violin and sang. He was a joy to listen to and had a great was of arranging the songs that made them very poignant. Our food was delicious and plentiful and our server Samantha was very attentive and friendly. We all enjoyed our meal and the experience and would definitely return on a future trip.

we went for our marriage anniversary on recommendation of one of our friend. And we were not disappointed all. Ambience was good for date night, with live music and good wine selection. Staff was very friendly and understood what we needed. We had a good time there, will definitely recommend if you are planning for dinner date night or just have a good food and wine.

I feel like I'm coming home every time I eat here. I have been coming here since I was 10 years old. IL G's never disappoints. Even as we arrived here tonight with masks and NO reservations-they had a seat for us AND recognized me! The chicken parmigiana and the crab, scallop snd shrimp special was mouth watering!! Thanks IL G!
