Restaurants near Nathan Hale Park

It's a wonderful restaurant. Avi is a genius. Among Gioia's many merits is that they regularly add new dishes to the menu. Plenty of vegetarian options. I brought some Italians from Milan who were very impressed by the authenticity and quality.

Food was delicious. Best crab cakes I’ve ever had . Drinks were great and the staff was very attentive and polite. . Ambience is 10/10. My new favorite spot in New Haven

We had a table for five plus a baby for lunch. Interesting and flavorful menu. Pulled duck tostados were excellent. One friend said the chicken sandwich was the best meal she had over the Christmas/Hanukah holiday. Kitchen made an easy substitution for a food allergy. Only slight gripe was that it was chilly sitting at the front table in the window. Will definitely be back!

This is our regular Christmas or Thanksgiving location. It’s never disappointed. Pricing isn’t “holiday inflated”, food is always on point, service is stellar. I’m big on cocktails and theirs are lovely. Thought out and executed well. Huge wine selection, and deserts that don’t disappoint. Put this place on your list.

Everything was great. All 7 of us had great meals and there were no complaints as far as I remember. The ribeye was huge and flavorful. The mac and cheese app was very cheesy with a wonderful hint of smoke flavor. The seafood salad was very tasty as was the oysters on the half shell. I had the honey glazed salmon which was perfectly crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. Service was also very good. Phenomenal experience overall.
