Gina’s was amazing. From the minute my husband and I walked in, we felt welcome. Our server was outstanding, and she was from Lompoc. The food was superb, to be savored. We even shared a dessert, and that doesn’t happen unless the meal itself was outstanding. 10 out of 10. We will be returning!

Love this place and people. The staffs are super friendly and helped us choose from the menu. The place is neat and well maintained. Food was delicious. Washrooms are tidy.

I received a French loaf of bread cut in half with mozzarella on it dry in place of my margarita pizza. When talking to the staff over the phone, they were rude, short, lied to me, made up a story, and then when I receive the rest of my order, which consisted of linguine puttanesca with a meatball, it was a sad excuse for Italian cuisine. I’m not confused that we live in California but for the prices and how it’s advertised I’m incredibly disappointed. I’m sure the chef and the owner are disappointed with themselves as well. I can’t imagine how anyone could take pride In an establishment like this.

Saw good reviews for this place, so we thought we would try it. My seafood pasta was really dry, had to ask for sauce on side. When I asked for more sauce, it was such a small bowl of sauce that it was still not enough sauce. We had to ask for bread twice before we received some even had to ask for our water to be refilled. Daughter ordered chicken pasta, didn’t get any chicken. They had to bring chicken on the side for her. The rest of my family’s meals were yummy is the only reason I gave the 3 stars. Most likely will not go back for such poor service when spending $160 + tip for our family of 4.

We came here on a date night. We were served bread and bruschetta right away. The bruschetta was very tasty! We had the Shrimp & Lobster ravioli and Lasagna. The shrimp & lobster initially came out a little cold, but our server got us a fresh dish right away and was very friendly! The plates were both filling and delicious.

This was hands down my favorite Italian restaurant on the central coast! I loved their pesto goat cheese Ravioli and I always asked them to make it spicy and they always accommodate my request. However, it seems like recently they did not only change the interiors (which I loved the original, felt like Italy!) but the management might have also changed. The menu has changed and now they can’t accommodate my vegetarian ravioli request. They have a chicken ravioli in pesto but can’t do a vegetarian ravioli ♀️ Ended up ordering Rigatoni but it wasn’t as good as the goat cheese ravioli in pesto. Sad that they went through all of these changes rather quickly.

Fun place to eat in the nice small town of Arroyo Grande. Service was great; very attentive. The chicken Marsala was excellent but the mashed potatoes were way too salty. Ambiance was very pleasant.

This is your standard, well priced, Italian restaurant. I went here for dinner and it was not very crowded, and it had good service and good food. The pizza is so good, and the creme brulee is so wonderful. I had a great time and my stomach is thanking me for all the good food.

My spouse and I ate here last Saturday (5/20/2023). I ordered the lasagna. It was the worst thing I have EVER tasted! The sauce was clearly can tomato sauce. It was lukewarm and the cooks didn’t even try to pretend otherwise. I think they literally just poured it from a can. The noodles were so overcooked and they just hung from the fork. They were completely flaccid. I think they cook their pre-made noodles in the microwave. And the cheese was disgusting. I took one bite and was disgusted. They brought me a different dish, chicken with pesto sauce. It was pretty good. And the waiter was OK. But the shift manager/restaurant manager was playing on his phone. I went up to let him know it was my spouse’s birthday and he nodded but he never looked at me. He just kept playing on his phone. And finally, they had an employee taking a break at the table with customers nearby. And another employee smoked out front and the cigarette smoke came into the restaurant. We were appalled. Their employees should have to take a break at the back of the restaurant, not where everyone can see them,

FOOD: great variety of pastas, salads and main entrees. We had the shrimp and lobster ravioli (amazing!), Salmon (had better as it seemed to be cooked out of a frozen one) and salad.
