Me and my family came to Gino’s to celebrate New Year’s Eve as well as my husband’s birthday. Our service was very slow. We were seated at about 8:30 PM, but we did not receive our food until 10:00 PM. When our food arrived, all of it was not cooked properly, so most of us had to send it back. By this time it’s nearing 11 PM so we asked for them to package it up because we needed to leave in order to get to our destination before midnight. Our waitress, Jen was very kind and she tried to do damage control, but I believe that the damage was already done. I will try and visit Gino’s on a day where it’s not as busy and hopefully have a better experience.

They were overbooked for New Yeats Eve. We waited an hour past our reservation This is one of our favorite restaurants, and this was very unusual. We normally are seated immediately.

Overall, we had a good experience. Our reservation was at 6:00 and we weren’t sat until almost 6:30, which I get on a holiday, but still kind of annoying when making a reservation for a certain time. The server we had was great and apologized for delays but was very attentive. I’d say it was a 4/5 experience.

Our reservation this evening was for 6pm. After waiting 45 minutes, I checked on our table and we were told there were 2 ahead of us. 15 min later my husband checked on our table and the very young hostesses told him they gave our table to someone else. They said they'd seat us as soon as possible and then proceeded to seat a 7pm reservation. I asked for the manager after the girls told me to" look around honey, there are people everywhere.". She told me the manager would speak to me when she has time. I asked the bartender to speak with the manager. She got her immediately and got us seated. We've been to Gino's for Christmas eve many years and have never encountered waiting like this for a reservation. Many people were upset about the wait we encountered and the way we were treated. Dinner was enjoyable and good as always. Our server and our gentleman refilling our water and packing our food were great and we tipped them both on top of gratuity added to our check. We appreciate good service but after this experience we will be dining elsewhere for Christmas Eve. In my opinion, as a manager, I would have addressed the many people waiting on their reservations and thanked them for their patience. Instead the hostesses were very disrespectful and didn't offer an apology but instead an explanation. Overall this was a disappointing start to our family holiday.
