Every single dish is amazing, and the service is fantastic! The mushroom lasagna is delicious.

Food was outstanding. Service was friendly and catered to our needs. But very noisy, expensive but not exorbitant. Difficult to park.

We have Eaten at Gioia many times. The food and service is always excellent. It is noisy on a weekend nght because it is aways full.

Their food is phenomenal. Seated toward the back, the opposite from our reserved request, we had a non-English speaking buswoman give us some attention for the first :30. It took a while for the kind waiter, William to take our order. It was all, appetizers and my daughter's bolognese pasta, fantastic. The meal was in need, however, of some practical placement and removal of unnecessary plates on our smallish table. I do wish there were more dishes without pork, made for less possibilities. The manager, Nicolette, I believe, took over with grace toward the end. Indeed, we will run back to Gioia.

Food, cocktails, and general atmosphere were amazing! And the Broken Vows was one of the most unique and best cocktails I've ever had.

1st off They want a credit card for a reservation. ?

2nd you get 4 shrimp for $20 and 8 extremely Al dente tortellini for $40. Granted food is really good and staff is great. If they up their portions and get rid of their little fine if you can’t make your reservation I would go back!

Our food was excellent, but our waitress was highly irritating and mildly offensive. I can't bring myself to return.

The tortellini dinner and the ravioli dinners looked like appetizers. My dish had 5 tortellini on it and my wife’s dish had 5 raviolis. When I asked the waitress if these were dinners, she replied yes and offered us a side to go with it. Nice but honestly we left and could have gone somewhere to eat dinner after that. We ordered 2 drinks when we first arrived and that was $20 for an old fashion and $17 for a small glass of wine. The food was good but we will not return there unless we eat before we go. They seem to be charging Manhattan prices for drinks.

The food and service were fair at best. I liked the vibe, but no reason to return.

Fine dining brought to Long Island in an unpretentious way. The experience should not be understated. Lovely atmosphere reminiscent of a speakeasy with an Italian flair. Cocktails well made. Wine list incredibly thoughtful and excellent and VERY well priced. Bread basket with olive oil and butters memorable and would return just for that with a cocktail. Mozzarella with prosciutto simple but perfect and well made, beautifully sourced ingredients. Tortellini with sausage and prosciutto delicious, unique and satisfying. Staff friendly and knowledgeable. No criticism. Will enjoying coming back again and again.

Excellent food and service. An unusual presentation., e.g., the lasagna did not look like traditional lasagna but was nevertheless delicious. Portions on the small side, but that is not necessarily a bad thing. Tables close together.
