Reviews
"Meh. Frankly not impressed at this pricing level. Portions were fairly small for the price. Service was fairly slow. The marinara was way too sweet for virtually everyone at the table. For $50 a head you can do much better in the area."
"Amazing dining experience and a must visit. Gino's offers an excellent selection of wines, with good recommendations from the servers. The staff are polite and helpful throughout the meal. The calamari tasted great and fresh. The Capri salads were refreshing. The Veal Parmesan was delicious. Their Lawrence bread (their version of garlic bread) is also a great compliment to the meal. For dessert, we ordered the Tartufo cake and tiramisu. The Tartufo cake was absolutely delicious and rich; id recommend it if you are drinking red wine with your meal. The tiramisu's mascarpone was delicate."
"Such an amazing iconic restaurant! The Laurence bread is such a highlight as you read the menu! Thursdays Gino has live music at 7 so make sure you make reservations if you want to sit in the bar area at a table! I love the lamb chops cooked medium and its my Go To! Check out the specials- you cant go wrong! I love this place every time! Great for 6-8 people too!"
"Was looking for a good Italian restaurant in Baton Rouge. Gino's was near my hotel, and everyone recommended it. I was not disappointed! The food tasted just like my grandmother's traditional meals! Plus the entire staff was warm and friendly. Would definitely recommend this restaurant. Plus check out the pistachio cake...words cannot describe how good it was!"
"I had the veal marsala, and my wife had the eggplant parmesan. Both were excellent. The veal was so tender that you didn't even need a knife. Terry was our waiter, and he was very personable. His manners were exceptionally."
