    Devin was a great waiter! Explained everything, as it was our first time, very knowledgeable on the menu and how we should go about it as we had a larger group. Getting the full experience was what we wanted and we were able to do that. Everything was fresh and delicious. We got a cheese he recommended and it was a bit strong for us, had wine in it, so he took it back and gave us a new one. Overall a wonderful experience that I will continue to recommend.

    Delicious food! The Carbonara is fantastic and the puccia bread is too. We discovered this place through Uber Eats, and wanted to try everything right out of the kitchen rather than after a 20 minute drive, and we were not disappointed. This place is worth the drive; will be back.

    My wife and I had such a great evening at Giardino Neighborhood Cucina in Lemon Grove. The food was incredible – the Pappardelle Bolognese was rich and flavorful, the Tiramisu was perfect, and the wine selection really brought everything together. Roberto, our server, was amazing—so friendly and attentive. After dinner, we checked out Zest, the wine bistro right next door, owned by the same people as Giardino. Heather was working there and gave us great recommendations for wine, making it a perfect way to end the night. If you’re looking for delicious Italian food, awesome service, and a great spot to relax with a glass of wine, Giardino and Zest are a winning combo. We can’t wait to come back!
