Giardino

Went tonight for first time around 5:30pm on a Friday for date night. HIGHLY recommend doing a reservation. Got patio seating and as you can see the views don't disappoint but you wanna know about the food. Two people, no drinks (we are water people), Appetiser, two meals, dessert: $75 before tip. Our waitress Lainey was AMAZING. She was so busy but made sure to check in on the tables like a champ. They were snappy on the bread, the butter was nicely balanced and not overly salty. Also if u want more for your meal ask for it! They will oblige! Also the Cat Host Parmesan made sure to table touch like a natural, and he's super sweet! We were also told they actually took him to the vet when he got hurt by something to make sure he was ok and get him better....that's CLASS folks. Got the Bruschetta, was delicious, had some sweetness, the tomatoes aren't overly acidic and balanced it out well. Bread was crispy and on point. Pappardelle Bolognese noddles were wide and cooked well. Meat was seasoned right on point with a good balance of salt and cooked to perfection. I like sauce could have used a little more but that's more so on my preference, the noodles were sauced amazingly otherwise. The other dish Penne Tuscano was just as rich and delicious. Sauce was creamy and the chicken was moist and done amazingly. Finishing out with a Tiramisu it was just divine. Nice coffee flavor, mascarpone wasn't too sweet but enough to balance out the bitter of the coffee flavor, nice dusting of cocoa with just a little juiciness at the bottom which was on point. TLDR: Everyone was super nice, attentive, and made sure that not just us but everyone around us was well taken care of (from my perspective) is it cheap? No. Atmosphere good? Yes. Seating good? Yes. Food Good? Absolutely. Sweet cat=Win.

Absolutely loved Giardino! I got the pappardelle bolognese & my husband got the chicken Parmesan! Finished the meal with tiramisu cheesecake! My new favorite Chattanooga restaurant- will definitely be back!

Excellent meal made to order with plant based requests all met and all expectations exceeded! Not surprising considering the attentive service. The atmosphere is lovely and the menu will surely please everyone in your group, including wine connoisseurs. Absolutely welcoming to families and equally perfect for special occasions, there is plenty of seating and parking for the many regulars who frequent often and those trying the restaurant for the first time. Incredible sunset views from outside, where they have a covered seating area as well.

Absolutely delicious food. Each of us tried a different plate and we all liked all of them. The lasagna, the bolognese pasta and the fungi pasta were spectacular. The service was great. As the appetizer, we had the flat bread and it was phenomenal. Will go back there when visiting Chattanooga next time.

Visiting from out of town and this place was better than I could have expected. Fantastic service. Food was delectable. We made reservations and were seated on arrival. We had the cheese board, split and entry and a refreshing cocktail. We even ordered a dessert to go. All this in less than an hour. We were never rushed and everyone was pleasant and personable. Highly recommend if you're looking for a good Italian restaurant.

Had a great anniversary dinner here. Boyfriend and I both got the chicken parm (which was heavenly) with a side of pasta. I got pappardelle bolognese for my side and it was delicious. My boyfriend got pappardelle with the rosemary cream sauce and it really lacked flavor. It wasn’t bad but wouldn’t get it again. We also got the calamari and it was good!!

I’d been here for lunch a while back and sat in the patio. Nice spot to sit at sunset. This time I was there for dinner with friends. Our server Bry was great. The entire staff was fabulous. Our food was delish!!! Two of us had the burrata risotto and I have to say it was one of the best risottos I’ve ever had. One had spaghetti and meatballs and my husband had chicken parm. He loved it. I’d definitely go back and I’d definitely recommend it. I think the only negative is that the interior is a bit dated but that’s not a deal breaker.

Exceptional dinner last night for a friend's birthday! Maddy was the BEST server, the food was delicious, and patio seating with the view cannot be beat. Do not skip dessert - the tiramisu left us speechless! We will be thinking about this meal (and Mr. Parmesan) for a long time!
