    Food was quick and good. There was a lot of fruit flies (or some sort of flies) landing on our table which was a bit off-putting.

    Great selection of pasta, all divided by type of pasta shape on the menu. Ravioli with truffle was delicious. Friendly staff. Tiramisu wasn't very good though and didn't taste of coffee or liquer, more like it was soaked in water, which was a shame to end the meal on.

    Service was outstanding. Restaurant associates checked to see if all ok. Just stopped in for a quick bite. Had a pizza with capers and anchovies. Was very tasty. My only suggestion would be for the pizza to be cooked a bit longer for the crust to be a little more crustier. Thank you!

    For an Italian who frequently travels abroad, this is one of the rare restaurants outside of Italy where the pasta is perfectly cooked "al dente." The pizza is also outstanding, but the hazelnut semifreddo truly steals the show.

    Il Giardinetto continues to be our favorite Italian restaurant in Lisbon. Food is always awesome but honestly its the service that brings us back. Eugene and Eric are simply the best...and its really not very close at all!!

    This is one of my favorite restaurants. We usually go at least once a month or more for lunch and dinner. The food is always good and the service is excellent. I can recommend their pizza, the grilled fish and any of the pasta dishes. A great wine list too!

    We have hosted over a dozen small groups at Il Giardinetto since moving to Lisbon and we keep returning because the service, the food, the ambiance, and the experience is consistently excellent. This visit was no exception!!!

    Just an average restaurant, in my opinion. Very large selection of Italian meals, so everyone should find something they like. Our waiter was rather slow. However, it appeared he was the only waiter covering our large room. Hence, they were probably understaffed. Our reservation was for 9:30 pm. He didn't have time to ask how things were or if we needed our drinks refilled. My risotto was below average as it only had one piece of chicken. My daughter's ravioli was much better. I would not return.

    The food, the service, and the hospitality at Il Giardinetto was amazing. Made reservations for 4, changed them to 9, and by the time we all got there 13 of us!! Didn´t matter, the staff welcomed us like we were their closest friends. Food was outstanding and a good time was had by all.

    Made reservations for 4 but showed up with 10 due to unplanned schedule changes, staff handled the change without missing a beat. Service was marvellous, food was better, all 10 of us had an amazing evening!!
