Great food, great service (Luke!), with an unpretentious atmosphere. Every time my partner and I are in Port Lincoln, we make it a point to stop by Del Giornos.

Everything about the entire experience exceeded all expectations. We were served by the sweetest, most upbeat woman I've ever met. The drinks were absolutely lovely (I've never heard of a margarita with sorbet in it before, but now I'm hooked!) And the food was astounding. The oysters were the best I've ever had (which is to be expected in the eyre peninsula), the abalone gnocchi was to die for, and my mother who is notorious for eating like a bird absolutely smashed the prosciutto wrapped chicken breast. If that isn't a top compliment then I don't know what is.

Over from Adelaide for the weekend and Del Gionos kept coming up as a must try. So we did and we werent disappointed! The food was great quality and full of flavour, the staff were friendly and very attentive, even kept us informed about of food as there was a large group in and we had ordered after them so a long way down the list in orders. All the reviews are correct, make sure you visit Del Gionos when in Lincoln.

A very busy spot but staff was lovely with their service to accommodate the crowd. Was asked to wait outside for a bit until a table is available - was promptly greeted and served when we got a table. We ordered a seafood platter, was delish! Would recommend a stop by.
