Situated in the picturesque Claisebrook Cove area of East Perth, Gioia On The River is a true gem for lovers of authentic Italian cuisine. Located right on the banks of the stunning Swan River, our restaurant offers an exceptional view of the water, with the added charm of being just a leisurely stroll away from the iconic Matagarup Bridge and Optus Stadium.

Our terrace, with its breathtaking river views, sets the scene for a tranquil Mediterranean escape. Here, you and your guests are invited to relax, enjoy the moment, and immerse yourselves in the joy of fine dining.

Our culinary philosophy blends classic Italian flavors with a modern flair. Under the guidance of Andrea, a local Italian and a veteran in the restaurant industry, Gioia's menu is a tribute to our cherished family recipes and the intrinsic Italian love for exquisite cuisine.

Seasonality is at the heart of our menu, ensuring that only the freshest, locally sourced ingredients grace your table. This commitment to quality is echoed in our wine selection, thoughtfully chosen to complement our dishes and featuring both local Australian wines and international favorites.

Gioia On The River is the quintessential spot for an unforgettable dining experience, whether you're looking to impress clients, celebrate with loved ones, or simply enjoy top-notch Italian fare in a stunning setting.
