Five specials are on the menu at Giardino Trattoria & Pizzeria this October: a salad, a soup, a pasta, a cocktail, and a wine. Here is what goes into each one.

Pear Salad

Roasted pear, caramelized walnuts, grapes, and Gorgonzola cheese over spring mix, with balsamic dressing.

Italian Wedding Soup

Meatballs and spinach in chicken broth with celery, carrots, onion, and acini di pepe, a small round pasta about the size of a peppercorn.

Giardino Lasagna

The pasta special is the Giardino Lasagna. House made pasta is layered with Italian sausage and beef, Giardino Bolognese, and pomodoro sauce. The cheeses are Ricotta Di Dulce, mozzarella, Parmesan, and ricotta.

Autumn Noon

The October cocktail is the Autumn Noon: pumpkin spice vodka, spiced pear, lemon, and simple syrup with prosecco.

Barossa Valley Estate Grenache Shiraz Mourvèdre

The October wine is a 2024 red blend from the Barossa Valley in South Australia, offered by the glass or bottle.
