Gioia is everything you hope to find in a neighborhood restaurant and more. From the moment we walked in, the service was incredibly warm, thoughtful, and attentive without ever feeling intrusive.

I asked for a very specific drink that wasn’t on the menu and instead of saying no, our server literally took a photo of the ingredients and had the bar recreate it for me perfectly. That level of care and willingness to go above and beyond says everything about how this place is run.

The food was outstanding across the board. The pasta was phenomenal, the chicken was cooked perfectly, and every dish tasted fresh, balanced, and thoughtfully prepared. What really stood out is that you leave feeling satisfied and not uncomfortably full like so many restaurants today. The ingredients are clearly high quality, fresh, and intentionally used.

The space itself is small, quaint, and intimate, the kind of place that feels special the second you walk in. It’s perfect for a date night, but just as great for gathering with friends or family.

100% recommended. Gioia is a standout and I will absolutely be back again.

The lady that was working with the tables was rude, bumped into our chairs multiple times, dropped utensils under our chairs, and never said sorry or anything.

However, we sat at the bar and our bartender was very nice and attentive to us. Food is decent and I would even say better than some of the Italian find dines we’ve been to in the city.

Maybe it’s a norm that restaurants on the island don’t care about customer experience that much or it’s just always that one person at the restaurant ruins everything else without recognizing it

Gioia Italian Restaurant in Oyster Bay is an absolute gem. The food is outstanding — every dish tastes fresh, authentic, and beautifully prepared. You can tell there’s real care put into the ingredients and presentation.

What truly sets Gioia apart, though, is the intimate, welcoming atmosphere. It has that perfect cozy Italian feel that makes you want to relax, enjoy a great bottle of wine, and stay awhile. It’s the kind of place that feels special without being pretentious.

If you’re looking for exceptional Italian food in Oyster Bay with a warm, inviting vibe, Gioia is a must-visit. Can’t wait to go back!

We have been regulars at Gioia for a couple of years now. We have had several meals, and all of them were excellent. The three course dinner is a bargain, and the mozzarella is the best I have eaten anywhere. The young staff is friendly, attentive, well trained , and professional. Hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

We have been waiting to come and check this place out for a while so, the expectations were very high.
Unfortunately they weren’t met! The best thing we had was the prosciutto and the grilled cauliflower. We both had pasta, I have Gluten-free gree potatoes gnocchi with shaved white truffle, from Tuscany… for only $150, if you pay so much you expect to get intoxicated with the truffle smell, it didn’t happen. Drinks were ok… nothing special. Disappointed.

Gioia is a very beautiful intimate restaurant. With there only being 10 tables, this was definitely a very unique experience. I took my boyfriend here for his birthday after finding out about Gioia on Facebook, and he loved it. Our waitress Jamie kept us laughing all night and was very attentive, as were all the staff members. The mozzarella appetizer was delicious as were both our entrees. I cannot wait to go back for another birthday or special occasion.

Had 6pm reservations for 4 people. Two of us got there at 540pm and ask to be seated early as the other 2 party members were en route about 5-10 minutes away. Mind you, the restaurant was completely empty , except for two occupants sitting at the bar. The hostess told us we couldn’t be seated until the whole party was there as in the past people have come late and they were going to busy that night. Now it’s 545 and the hostess still didn’t sit us and not one other person was in the restaurant. We were literally about 5-10 feet away from here watching her stand there texting on her phone. I yet again went over and asked to be seated. She replied again in a condescending tone it’s the policy of the restaurateur not to seat anyone until the full party arrives. Under normally circumstances I understand but this restaurant was beyond empty. I took it upon myself and finally sat down at one of the many empty tables and the hostess comes over and says I guess you can sit here as you took it upon yourself to seat yourself. Now it’s 547pm and the two people in my party arrive. I was beyond disgusted with the hostesses attitude so we left. I would never recommend this restaurant to anyone. Their people are nasty and their policies are lacking. It’s a tiny hole in the wall dump. We went down the street to Eddie’s and had a very good meal. STAY AWAY FROM GIOIA!!!!!!!

I haven’t been to a place this good in a while. I am currently attempting to eat my way through the entire menu. However, i want to repeat the duck, shrimp, prosciutto, pastas, and well almost everything i have tried so far.
Bar staff is great. Food runners are on point with at the table plating.

Gioia never disappoints!! We have been here multiple times since they opened and have an outstanding experience every time.

Today was no different- we took advantage of the $59 prix fixe menu and enjoyed the baby gem salad, cheese trolley, magliati and the newest addition of the summer risotto.

The ambience is perfect- not too loud, can hear yourself talk with music in the background. Service is perfectly timed- you are not waiting long between courses, yet you are not rushed through your meal.

The intimate setting is perfect for a special occasion or just a date night out.

This is the true hidden gem of Oyster Bay- look no further for great food and service.

Gioia is small but intimate restaurant which has a nice selection of appetizers. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. The pasta, we tried three different selection were all delicious. Appetizers are large enough for you to make it a tapas type selection. The shrimps were excellent, the beans delicious, the crudo plate large enough to share and the cauliflower worth considering even as a side dish. The deserts are a must if you have a sweet tooth.
