We had a wonderful experience. We were seated right away. The restaurant was very clean. I had a lobster tail with mash potatoes, and broccolini. My food was very good. My best friend had the center cut filet mignon with mash potatoes and broccolini as well. They loved their steak. For our appetizer we had the shrimp kisses; which were delicious. I visit this restaurant again.

It was packed tonight! And the reservation time was delayed a bit so we waited at the lovely bar. The hosts and hostesses kept coming by with updates and what a lovely surprise to have been sent appetizers on the house to make up for our wait. Besides excellent food, Gibson’s Italia is unmatched in terms of how they care for their customers !
