– food was very good, fresh, flavorful, and well presented.
– the waiters were nice and friendly, the hostess to be honest were not real friendly at all. They are the first contact with customers and set vibes for the customers so negative interactions with them can ruin experiences.
– service was quick and my waiter was very friendly and helpful. The baked ziti was what I got.
– place was clean and organized.
– prices are normal for the area.
– overall not a bad first experience.

It was really good. The flavor was on point the service was excellent. We went for my daughter’s 16th birthday and she wanted Italian. They surely executed the good well and had great portions.

Sorry I have to leave this review. Terrible food! The chicken wings were way overcooked. It’s dry and tough. The masala chicken was very tough as well. Meatball tasted horrible. Even my toddler who usually loves meatballs threw it away. Everything tasted like canned food. It’s disgusting! WHY? We will never return.

I’ve been coming here for years and always had a great experience. They serve some of the best Italian dishes in all on Northern VA. The place is really clean and the staff are very friendly. It seems to be a favorite spot for locals with a very family friendly vibe. I really like their fettuccine Alfredo with chicken and the Pollo Bryan. The calamari here is excellent at well. On Monday nights, they have a large 3 topping pizza for only $11.99 which is an amazing deal for a high quality brick oven pizza. They also have prime rib on Wednesday nights which I love to get too. Whenever I meet up with friends at Giradinos, they all say that the food is great too. I need to try some more of their entrees but it’s hard to when I really love getting what I’m used to. Highly recommend this place if you love Italian dishes, brick oven pizza and some good wine.

Family Italian food and pizza. The food is considerably better than your typical pizza place. You’ll find more options than just spaghetti & meatballs. Manicotti with pink sauce, incredibly rich alfredo with perfectly cooked plump shrimp, linguine with clams, sausage & peppers, handmade calzones, brick oven pizzas with fresh toppings and an excellent crust. The bread knots with olive oil and fresh herbs are great.
There is a smallish bar, smallish dining area, some booths, some tables, covered seating out front (shopping center views), larger group seating 10-12) is pretty common here but call ahead.
There are a lot of pizza places that will charge you $18-22 for a pasta dish, but this one is actually worth it.

Amazing Father & Son Experience at Giardino Italiano!
My son, being a true foodie, chose Giardino Italiano for our special outing, and it was an exceptional choice. We started with the calamari, and they were some of the best we’ve ever had. The calamari was crispy and perfectly cooked, but what truly set it apart was the marinara sauce—it was top-notch, full of rich flavors that elevated the dish.
Our server, Theodore, really went above and beyond to make the experience memorable. He was attentive, knowledgeable, and his warm personality added a special touch to our meal.
Highly recommend for anyone looking for an authentic Italian dining experience with exceptional service!

Giardino’s is like a little slice of Italy in NOVA. All the food is delicious and the ingredients are authentic and fresh. Tony and Eddy are wonderful. Thank you for a beautiful experience!

This is definitely not authentic Italian food. Very bland and over priced. The sauce was definitely from a can. The bread tastes funny. I doubt i would eat here again. The service was pretty good
