    A lovely seafood reataurant. The quality of the fish was excellent. The portions on both the starters and the mains was generous. We would definitely recommend anyone to eat here.

    Very good seafood, excellent! The atmosphere are really Italian up lighted and not cosy. If you go for the food it’s absolutely 10, if you go for the atmosphere it’s might be a 4-5. The food quality will overwhelm the atmosphere.

    The food was outstanding. The only mystery was why more people weren't there.

    The restaurant is a bit hidden, but absolutely recommendable. The fish is very good and the ambiance very appealing. Thank you for a nice evening. Michael from Germany

    Nice restaurant, decorations a bit outdated but not so bad, prices reasonable. The food is very well presented but average in taste and in terms of associations. As for the starter, we took the scallops, which were good but overpowered by the lemon cream. Followed by the lobster pasta. The lobster per se wasn’t bad but the pasta sauce did not tasted like homemade. Nevertheless, we had a pleasant evening.

    We stay for several years for our holiday in Gardone and we have every evening a dinner in a different restaurant in very different price ranges. Il Giglio is every year a surprise for us with excellent seafood, great wines and for reasonable prices! Don’t go there for a pizza or a pasta, go there when you love a good dinner!

    On our Hotel's staff advice we ate at Il Giglio on our arrival night. The Restaurant is off the Main road & a little difficult to find. But the little extra effort to find it is worth the while. The settings are modern, simple and clean. The tables are well spaced apart, covid-19 oblige I suppose. The Restaurant is simply: FISH. Fresh, well cooked, well presented on king size dishes with copious portions. The oysters my wife had were fresh, they smelled the sea, the Branzino al forno (oven cooked sea bass) was a pleasant discovery, we normally have it oven cooked in a crust of salt, and my fried Calamari were as they are supposed to be: gently fried to a light golden color, cooked but not chewy. Perfect. The wine list is a little limited and it is composed of mostly whites from the Garda region. Sandro, the owner, is omnipresent but discreet, very efficient and courteous. It is not an inexpensive Restaurant, but if you are looking for a meal were fresh and good fish is the objective, look no further. You are at the right address. We were so satisfied that we paid the Restaurant a second visit. And satisfied we were, again! And so were the couple of English people, sitting next to us, who kept on looking at our dishes and who decided to repeat the experience the next day. I don't know if and when we'll be in the area again, but if we do we will definitely put Il Giglio on our agenda.

    One of the best options in the area, a must if you like seafood, our favourite is Grilled Mix Seafood - yammy!!! The price level is correct bearing in mind quality of food and portions size. The owner is very welcoming person, we highly recomment to visit the restaurant.

    Went to this restaurant for dinner with my family including my 2 small children 1 6yr old and a 3 year old - they were accommodating and prepared a simple meal of spaghettis for my kids whilst we were able to enjoy their delicious oysters and tagliatelle with lobster. Very good wine recommendations as well and excellent service.

    It was rather strange to have David Bowie singing (rather too loudly for our liking) when dining in a small Italian restaurant when there were 4 couples dining

    Delicious seafood. Enormous portions. Friendly, efficient service. Good value. Lighting a little too bright for my taste but might be ok in the daytime.

    One of the best meals we had while at Garda Lake, do not be surprised if there are not many visitors the food and the service is above all expectations. Very tasty and high quality ingredients, go for pasta with seafood or for mixed fish grill, brilliant!
