    My first time there and it was fantastic ! When we walked in, we were greeted by Cathy. She was absolutely awesome! Great personality and perfect for this type of environment. She seated us and Alex took care of us while we dined. Another fantastic individual! The Pork Chop and mashed potatoes were THE BEST and I also enjoyed the Trio of the Month! Definitely a five star experience!

    Gibson's is a very dependable and consistent restaurant. I have found both the food and service to be excellent. Their steaks and desserts are particular stand outs in my opinion. I will return to Gibson's and have been a customer for more than 10 years.
