The food was all so fresh and tasty, even the gelato was home made! Everyone who worked here was so kind, and the atmosphere was perfect. I told my husband several times that I felt like I was a kid again and at my aunts house. We’ll be back :)

A holiday family tradition but this year terribly disappointed. Called in advance for reservations 6 pm didn't leave until almost 9:30. Fried calamari appetizer, salad, rum raisin gelato stellar... entries disappointing watery pasta mushy ... one entre mixed up with another order. I traveled from North Carolina to host my family for Christmas usually a great homemade Italian taste of home. This year not so...

A place that will remind you of dinners at your grandmas house, the atmosphere is cozy and makes you feel at home. The person hosting us, Sal, was phenomenal and very attentive to answer any questions we had. All the food tasted fantastic, knowing it was made with passion and a love to provide delicious home made food. From the appetizer to the home made gelato, let’s just say I continually telling myself “Wow.” Because it was delicious and reminded me of my grandmas home, even though she cooked different food, it was the thought of how much effort and time was put into it and presentation.
Please don’t skimp on this tiny little place, I such bite was so comforting and warming.

Excellent old school Italian restaurant…Nothing fancy but if you want great food and a family atmosphere this is the spot..Places like this are slowly closing and will not come back so it should be supported….Been there a dozen times and never had a meal that wasn’t amazing
This is one of the best Italian Restaurants in the tri city area. Everything is homemade and you are treated like family. We visit as often as possible. The food is delicious and fresh. Don't forget the gelato......
I have to say, this is by far the best Italian restaurant in the area I have been to outside of Italy. Homemade pasta, great menu, and homemade deserts. The atmosphere was very quaint and casual, much like family owned restaurants abroad. Service was phenomenal. Very minor error on my order and he insisted on throwing in my gelato on the house. I will definitely be back when in town again. Will recommend to friends as well. Just a great all around experience. Thank you.

I've eaten veal parm all over Europe and the US and Gina's is absolutely the very best without a doubt. She cooks just like the best home done meals. All is just so delicious as is the rest of her menu items. We've been regulars since the 1980's when she opened.

Excellent meal from the homemade bread, to the fried calamari appetizer, house salad, veal Sorrentino, stuffed veal, shrimp scampi, fresh spaghetti and sauce, gelato di frutta, and cannoli.
Enjoy a carafe of red or white wine, and be patient for this authentic homemade delicacy. Worth every minute. Delightful staff and ambiance, and ample street parking . Grazie
