Giardino 54

Giardino is fantastic and if you are thinking about going, just make a reservation and stop reading. The food and service were both excellent. We shared a prosciutto and fig special appetizer, followed by the pesto gnocchi and pork orchiette (unbelievable- my favorite), and finished with the short rib and eggplant zucchini starter. Sauces were all perfectly seasoned and proportions were appropriate. Cheers.

Wonderful evening from drinks through appetizers to dinner and dessert. Waitstaff wonderful, food delightful. The evening’s special watermelon cocktail was beautiful to look at and tasted just as good.

I was hoping for a better waffle at brunch, however I would definitely go back! Great staff and lovely outdoor dining!

I live in Hell's Kitchen and have been frequenting Giardino 54 since it's first opened. This is one of my favorite neighborhood places. A lovely little spot, the food is consistently outstanding and the service is excellent. I've taken many friends here and it always gets rave reviews. I'll be back again and again.

The food was delicious, but even more importantly the staff were friendly, kind, and gracious. It was a wonderful place to visit with a dear friend after over a year not seeing one another, and I recommend everyone support this neighborhood gem.

Everything that we ordered was wonderfully prepared. Highly recommended

Best bolognese ever! Homemade Ravioli special was delicious.

Such a gem in Hell’s Kitchen. It’s become my new favorite Italian restaurant in the city. The food, wine, service, and ambiance are all amazing. Spaghetti with mushroom and speck was delicious. The Prosciutto melts in mouth and is definitely the best I’ve had in New York. The waiters are very attentive. Will come back again and again.

Tremendous food; good service. The staff seemed overwhelmed resulting in long time gaps between visits, BUT they were very professional!

We had reserved, but the only tables in the garden were high-tops with stools--which would kill my back. The hostess very graciously got other guests to relocate so that we could have a regular table with chairs. Sooo nice!
I lived in Italy for many years and know Italian food very well. The food here was delicious, the portions were copious, and everything was just right.
Exceptional server as well!

Food was great, service not so much. Server never came to us, had to hunt them down for every thing.

Great ambiance. Service was a bit slow.

Cute place enjoyed eating outside and the service was great

Lasagna was incredible! Pesto gnocchi was all right. The gnocchi was amazing but the sauce didn’t have much flavor.

They created an app of buratta and prosciutto that wasn’t on the menu per our request which was amazing and very appreciated! We will be back. :)

Great food and service. Everyone was very pleasant and helped us with a few. Requests

Great food and wine. Lots of seating options

Food was delicious/amazing. The neighboring lights were a bit bright, but the restaurant probably couldn't control that. Gabi, our server, was TERRIFIC. We loved her a lot and would go back just to see her.

Mixed reviews. First time I came here was perfect (food, service, etc.). This was my second time and it felt like a whole different (bad) experience.

Food was cold, Short Rib was all fat, and Tuna did not seem fresh. Waited for a server for 20 minutes to correct it but by then, we were just eager to leave.

Nice staff on a personal level though, they were very understanding,

Consistently great food and ambience!

Great food and service; very accommodating of requests.

Amazing food but slow service. They seemed very overwhelmed.

Great food. Wonderful service. We were able to have a terrific, relaxed meal.
