Il Giardinello - Toms River

We decided to come to this restaurant last minute and we were not disappointed at all! It is BYOB which is convenient. The stuffed rigatoni ala vodka was probably the best I've ever had! Everyone in my group enjoyed their meals. The staff were friendly and accommodating, and the service was quick. Our waiter has been working there since the late 80s, which is a great testament to the business's quality.

Food was outstanding and Karen was a great waitress. We were there for a Breast Cancer Awareness Dinner and the owner was kind enough to donate a gift card to our cause. It was a great evening.

Went here for lunch and what an excellent decision. The staff is friendly and welcoming, and very knowledgeable about the menu and specials. The portions were very large and nicely priced. 3 of us had the veal parmigiana and it was great, I highly recommend it. My wife had the salmon special and loved it. You won't leave hungry even though you'll bring some home.

We were thrilled to dine at this restaurant with friends for the first time and were extremely pleased with the excellent service and delicious food. The staff was knowledgeable and friendly, and they explained the menu items as well as the special dishes of the day. Each of us ordered a different entree, all of which were top-notch and beautifully presented. I noticed other diners being served with dishes that I look forward to trying on my next visit. The staff was attentive but not intrusive, providing service that was a step above the rest. Our desserts were delightful and looked like something out of a picture. Despite a slight delay in our friends' arrival, the staff was accommodating and warm. Just remember, this restaurant is BYOB.

This restaurant was absolutely fantastic! It had the best Italian food I've had in a long time. Even though the restaurant was busy for a 5:00 dinner, the staff and kitchen managed it very well. I ordered the penne vodka with gluten-free pasta and it was seriously the best vodka sauce I've ever had. I will definitely be coming back again.
