    The welcome from all staff, the service and the food were all impeccable. It was without a doubt our favourite meal of our holiday- an absolute must visit when staying in Gardone.

    Wonderful service, delicious food and beautiful view. It’s a bit more pricey than most of the other restaurants in town but worth it!

    Excellent restaurant. Much better than the typical cafe in the Garda area. Very good value for money. Fine dining standard. Strongly recommended.

    oh, my goodness, both Fabian and Chef Nicholas were so welcoming and gracious! This was our second visit in two days & our last night at Gardone Riviera. Our food, the ambience, everything, was just tutto bene! What more can one say?

    From the moment we arrived we felt rushed, and they wanted our table back as soon as possible. Food was good however, but a slower pace particularly with a foreign menu would have been beneficial

    Excellent location - started well - downhill after that . Clearly too many covers at once but if the system lets you book then it should be ok. Staff needed more training for sure which would give the owner less stress. However , mains disappointing - maybe menu too big . Didn’t stay for dessert as already felt you had outstayed your welcome . New to gardone - it’s could work well but alas not tonight

    Ristorante Nicholas is in a prime location on the lake. Service was very attentive and the food was excellent. Quite an upmarket restaurant so quite expensive but they were happy to accommodate preferences such as sharing starters. We would definitely recommend a visit.

    Recommend by a friend. Very good food. Wonderful service. More expensive than many Garda restaurants but well worth it. Good for special occasions.

    Lovely atmosphere with very attentive staff who made us feel very welcome. The food was exceptional and can’t recommend it highly enough. The setting on the lake front added to the experience.

    Lovely location next to the lake and nice atmosphere. The staff were excellent and very helpful. We received a few tasty treats between courses which went down very well. The food was very good for the most part but one of our party was disappointed in his selection. Overall, it's worth a visit.
