Il Giardino delle Esperidi In Bardolino

Wow! The food was delicious👌. My husband, my baby and I had a beautiful peacefull evning in this authentic italian ristorante, and it was a discovery for us.

We had a truly wonderful experience at Il Giardino Delle Esperidi. This charming, intimate restaurant offers the perfect setting for an unforgettable evening. Family-run and full of character, it is the kind of hidden gem that absolutely deserves recognition in the Michelin Guide. From the very beginning, we were warmly welcomed by the exceptionally kind and attentive staff, who made us feel instantly at home. We each chose the four-course menu and received excellent guidance and thoughtful recommendations, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The food itself was nothing short of outstanding. Every dish reflected a deep passion for cooking — you could taste the love and care in every bite. It was slow food at its very best: refined, authentic, and prepared with remarkable attention to detail. The entire evening was simply unforgettable, and we are sincerely grateful for such an experience. Without a doubt, we will return on our next visit to Bardolino, and we cannot recommend this outstanding restaurant highly enough.

This restaurant is truly exceptional. It stands out from the numerous food stalls in Bardolino. There's always a fish and a meat menu. The dishes are beautifully presented and a taste experience. The wine list is extensive, and the recommendations are excellent. The same applies to the service. So, stopping here is both inspiration and enjoyment.

It was quite expensive, but that wasn’t the main issue. The real problem was that I found a piece of foil in my pasta. Normally, they would cancel the dish or offer some form of compensation, but they didn’t. After that, I couldn’t eat my pasta.

Excellent!! A place that cooks lake fish. Highly recommended 😍

We would like to sincerely thank the entire team! From the moment you enter the restaurant, you can feel the warm, inviting atmosphere – you immediately feel welcome. The food was delicious and the service incredibly warm and attentive. An all-round successful evening that we won't soon forget. Thank you so much for this special experience in Bardolino! 😊❤️

A wonderful restaurant in Bardolino! The Giardino delle Esperidi impresses with its elegant ambiance, beautiful garden, and excellent cuisine. The dishes are refined, creative, and prepared with the finest ingredients. Each one is a true taste experience. The wine list is also outstanding and perfectly rounds off the culinary experience. The service was attentive, friendly, and always professional. Definitely a top address for connoisseurs!

We returned after years and found it even better than we remembered. Very creative dishes, perhaps not to everyone's taste, but for our personal taste, an extraordinary mix. A wide selection of wines to pair, and the staff are extremely kind and knowledgeable. The requirement for a minimum of two courses is clearly specified on the menu, which is clearly visible before entering, as are the prices. Bardolino is full of restaurants for all tastes and budgets, so the controversies I've read are somewhat meaningless. I found the price to be absolutely proportionate to the quality.

Great atmosphere in this lovely little place, thanks to the staff, all women, and the kindness of Mrs. Susy, a great wine connoisseur! Thank you, congratulations, and definitely see you soon.

Very charming place with rustique italian food. Interiors are toned down with original details. Attentative service, great wine pairings. Menu is quite straightforward, food of high quality but the wines are the main attraction at this venue. Charming owner.
