Giardino Trattoria and Pizzeria is located in Downtown Aurora at 12 North River Street, inside the historic Hobbs Building, just steps from the Paramount Theatre.
The menu focuses on brick oven Neapolitan-style pizza, fresh pasta made daily, Italian specialties, and salads, plus vegetarian and gluten-free options. You will find classic dishes made with quality ingredients as well as monthly specials.
The dining room blends historic character with a garden-inspired theme. It works for date night, family dinner, and group reservations. Giardino is perfect for a pre-show meal when visiting one of our downtown Aurora theatres.
The bar offers cocktails, wine, and beer that pair well with the menu items. Lunch specials and happy hour make Giardino an easy stop for nearby offices, as well as visitors spending the day downtown.
Giardino also makes hosting simple. Catering is available for office lunches, family gatherings, and event nights, with options that travel well and serve a range of tastes. If you are planning ahead, the team can help you build a spread that fits your group. For nights you want Giardino at home, online ordering is available for takeout or carryout, so you can pick up your favorites on your schedule.
Reservations are encouraged, especially on weekends and performance nights. Full menu, catering details, reservations, and online ordering are available at EatatGiardino.com.
