gino's restaurant

i’ve been trying to get my schedule to work with the hours for awhile and was finally able to enjoy a meal at gino’s. my order was simple enough- spaghetti and meatballs with tiramisu for dessert. too many times i find places that make the redsaucetoo sweet. gino’s is perfect. dessert was delicious. the atmosphere at gino’s is nice with white table cloths and the staff very attentive. i am looking forward to returning.

always great. best italian in town and fantastic service. all the classic italian entrees are great. i like their fish selections, cooked in simple olive oil & herbs, always comes out perfect and the side of bow tie pasta with redsaucetops it all off. you've got to get the bread as well, the kind with parmesan and herbs is fabulous.

pass. just to start the hostess said "i can seat you, but you have to be out by 8:15 as i have a reservation". we should of walked out at that point. this restaurant was highly recommended by a few people i know and maybe i had high expectations, but everything about this place was underwhelming. the spaghetti was undercooked, thesaucewas bland and the food was just a pool value for the money. on the other hand, the service was very good. i don't blame the waiter for the food, but the food wasn't good. i wouldn't come back to this restaurant.

quite possibly my best meal, ever.... just came back from my nye/5th anniversary dinner at gino's. i've eaten there a few times in the past, and it's always been good, but i never thought it was anything special. however, tonight's meal ranks up there with some of my better meals at commanders palace as perhaps my best ever. ordered a tasty bottle of italian red that our knowledgeable waiter recommended and placed my order. started off w/ the arancine -- on a scale of 1-10, it was a 10. had mama's special salad topped with crabmeat, also excellent. two orders of laurence bread were scrumptious. for an entree i had the veal sorrentina which was also great, as was the angel hair pasta and redsaucethat accompanied it. for dessert i had the almond cream cake, which instantly became one of my favorite desserts, anywhere. i finished off with an espresso and a shot of bailey's irish cream. meal w/ tip was $150 and it was worth every penny. i left fat and happy. definitely tops my list of favorite italian places, along with sal and judy's in lacombe.

great service, food mediocre, and why do they have cafe chairs for fine dining? the italian salad was tasteless and cheesesaucewas bland.

good italiano food!. when it comes to italian food i am very tickey about how the sauce, or gravey, taste, and the different types of noodles used. this is one of the best italian restaurants i have eaten at in awhile. i love their meatsauceand also their home made salads. their meatballs are cook just right with the right blend of celery, onion, cheese, meat, rosemary, and garlic. their spaghetti is amazingly great. my wife's favorite is the eggplant parmesan. it is great too. i often get this dish with the yummy egg plant, meat, cheese, and tomato slices. also, the veal cutlets are another great dish to try if you want something different. love their bread and whipped butter, and the service and staff are super friendly and nice. prices are also very good for the amount of food a person receives. i enjoy taking friends here that have never eaten at this place. it is a great place for families too. try it out next time your in baton rouge.

events. gino's could charge double what they charge now, and i would still pay it. the fish is the best i have ever had, same for the salad and laurence bread is a must. redsauceis just amazing.

this really isn't the place to throw large extravagant parties or events, but more one off dates or a dimly lit dinner with a few close friends. the food is so good, you really do not want to take any attention away from it. they do have a space that can be made in to a private room with an airwall, which can seat about 30ppl. i have heard they will also cater.

yum. i love gino's and have been going there for years. their lunch menu is very affordable. but, my all-time favorite is to order the laurence bread and get the crawfish arancine with angel hair pasta and pinksauce-- make your tongue slap your brains out!
