Garden da Nino In Giardini-naxos

This seaside restaurant has a lovely white decor and a great atmosphere. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We ordered seafood pasta and pasta with eggplant. The flavors were a bit on the salty side, but the seafood pasta was delicious, with plenty of small octopus pieces in the broth at the end! The portions were also generous. Definitely worth a visit! 👍

We stumbled upon Giardini Naxos by chance. Kind and courteous service, excellent food in a stunning seaside location. Highly recommended.

The sea bass was great and the service was splendid

An outstanding dining experience! The staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and attentive. They also spoke excellent English, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The food was simply exceptional, the best meal I had during my stay in Giardini Naxos. Every dish was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared, with the quality of the ingredients evident in every bite. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting the area. Great service, outstanding food, and a wonderful atmosphere.

Everything was perfect. Thank you to Salvatore and his "Dream Team" for the welcome, the meal, the view, and the family atmosphere. Thank you for this wonderful time, French friends 😉

The service was excellent, the fish was fresh and delicious, and the terrace with sea views was super peaceful.

We stopped by chance before returning to Calabria. A wonderful place, the food is divine, the fish is incredibly fresh, and the staff and owner are excellent.

Excellent food and quality service

We just dined here and, wow what an experience. The food was delicious, the service incredible. So friendly, fast. Even got lemon sorbet on the house, and Limoncello for the adults. We will be back from sure and you have to try the octopus salad.

If you’re looking for an authentic Sicilian meal you’ll remember long after your trip, Garden da Nino is it. The food was unbelievably fresh, proving that simple, high-quality ingredients are all you need. I ordered the mixed fish platter with tuna, swordfish, calamari, shrimp, and fresh white fish, served with perfectly cooked vegetables including aubergine, peppers, and zucchini. Every bite was delicious. The homemade roasted potatoes were crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and absolutely perfect. My wife had the catch of the day—a beautifully fresh sea bass that was cooked to perfection. To finish, we shared the homemade tiramisu and pistachio tart, and both were outstanding. What made the experience even more special was the chef and owner, who personally served us. He was warm, welcoming, and a true gentleman, making us feel like guests in his home rather than customers in a restaurant. This is one of those rare places you never forget. Authentic food, genuine hospitality, and an unforgettable experience. Easily a 12/10. Highly recommended.
