My husband and I found the groupon and decided to give Gina's a go. As we seated, we asked if they have Pesto. The young man who was from Italy went on to say that they didn't, mostly because they aren't able to get the same ingredients here to make it like they do back home. Therefore, they don't make it. I was so impressed!! That was my first sign that this would be REAL authentic Italian food. He then said that if we were to come back, to call in the morning requesting pesto and he would see what he could find here to make it as authentic as it is back home. Just that was so impressive to us!!
Free fresh bread to snack on which we loved while ordering. We split the Calamari appetizer ($12.99) which was 100% worth it! It came with a fresh, and I mean FRESH marinara sauce. It was so authentic and I seriously could have drank the sauce. The portion size of this apatizer was HUGE and we were both stuffed and didn't even finish it. Because we were so full, we split an entree (a daily special, some sort of ziti bake with mozarella on top). EVerything was to DIE for. I could tell it was all made to order, FRESH, and authentic. It makes Olive Garden look like absolute complete trash.
We will definitely return. The woman refilled our drinks like it was her job. (Finally - this restaurant is how all restaurants should be). I hate when you are waiting for a refill and no one ever attends to your needs. Anyways, they were so amazing and we will surely return.
