Giardino at 4437 Douglaston Parkway, Little Neck, Queens, New York.

If you're looking for a well portioned full flavored Italian meal suitable for families, please go elsewhere. Though the place was large, the table we sat at was undersized for our group of 5 with a stroller. We saw other suitable tables around the place but being put in the corner create an uncomfortable space.

After ordering our food, we were distrurbed by how inadequate the table was for holding our many dishes. We were literally sitting elbow to elbow and the dishes were almost toppling off the edges of the table.

When we thought the food was a saving grace, we were wrong. The chicken was dry, the pork chop was undersized and hidden beneath a pile of potatoes, and some pieces of pasta were undercooked (stuck together and could not be chewed).

Though the ambience was warm and inviting, contrary to that we didn't feel that way.

We will definitely not be coming back.
