Great Full Gardens was founded by husband-and-wife team Gino and Juli Scala, whose combined talents brought a fresh vision to Reno's dining scene. Gino contributes decades of expertise in menu development and ingredient sourcing, while Juli brings a background in life coaching and wellness, helping shape the restaurant's mission of nourishment and connection.
In 2013, the husband & wife duo welcomed friend Cyndi Wallis as a co-owner. Cyndi gave 12 years of service before departing to honor a life dream & care for her aging parents. In that same year, Dr. Sean Devlin and Dr. Ann Barnet joined as investor/owners and have continued to serve as owners & on the Board of Directors.
With a dedicated team of passionate professionals, Great Full Gardens is committed to serving food with purpose — building community, supporting well-being, and creating a place where everyone can gather and feel welcome.
