We had a fabulous lunch here at Gino’s. We’ve been a few times before for coffee and light lunch and the service is always great. We were greeted by the friendly front of house staff. Ylenia took our drinks order and then returned for our food choices. We really enjoyed the food as it was freshly made and tasted delicious. The bread came with a pesto dip which was yummy! Really enjoyed the aubergine parmigiana! The desserts were also delicious. All in all, a very enjoyable experience. The staff were very friendly and attentive!! A special mention to Ylenia who was excellent!!! Until next time…!!

Very nice starter which was the fantastico sharing board, (shown in the pictures) with the focaccia, bread etc. Ample enough for 3-4 people to pick at, pretty solid. Really nice duck for the main which was in a cherry jous, along with the lamb cutlets which my partner enjoyed but thought they were slightly tough in parts but very nice sauce. On the order was also a Lobster Linguine, this was probably the dish that brought the standard down a little, it was a bit bland and there wasn't much lobster in the dish to be honest. Seemed like the accountants are preparing this one potentially. Eylenia was serving us, she was very attentive and friendly. Excellent service and seemed to be the stronger member in the team. All in all, it's hitting most of the right notes at Ginos with a few exceptions, some dishes might be slightly above market rate for the standard, but I guess your paying a bit extra for the Gino brand. I hate doing 5 star ratings, so what's it out of 10? 7.2 - It's good overall, great sharing boards, pretty solid mains, great sides, disappointed on the pasta dish we had and seen other reviewers not so keen on the pasta offerings so maybe room for improvement here when that's such a key area on an Italian menu. (Bonus material) The other detractor which I haven't factored in to the review is it's bolted on to a next and feels a little random, that might be a benefit though if you fancy picking up a diffuser after you've had a calzone.
