    Gamba has been our anniversary location for over five years. It’s where we go when we know the food, staff and atmosphere will be perfect. Oyster and shrimp appetizers. Yum! The house salad is incredible; brightly flavored. Pork Chops are thick and juicy. Pasta with calamari is divine. End with crème puffs and you’ll be in heaven!

    Excellent as always. It was my daughter’s birthday and they brought out a dessert and we didn’t even ask for it. It’s worth the money there!

    Dinner for 2 on the Saturday of Memorial Day weekend. So, no full house at all. Nevertheless, we genuinely enjoyed our dinner. Our waitress and her help provided truly excellent service. The food was delicious and the red wine by the glass had the perfect temperature (a bit below room temperature). Only the young host still needs to work on her customer service (& friendliness). Gino's is a great place. We'll be back.
