    The food was with good plenty of options. It was Mother’s Day and every table was full. It took a while for the waitress to get to our table but the hostess was great and brought us waters. They definitely made us feel welcome after the little wait with an order of garlic bread and desert on the house.

    Food and service was excellent. My only critique is too many distracting TV screens in the dining area that took away from the otherwise nice decor. Plenty of TVs in the bar for people who like that.

    We really like Gambi's seafarer / pirate atmosphere. We prefer being there when there is live music 🎶 🎵 to listen to as we visit and eat. However, the service was better when there are fewer people, so. . .that is the plus of no live music. We like the menu and have enjoyed the entre's that we have tried. Appetizers are very good, too. We could make a meal of the Appetizers! We enjoyed our meal and the Gambi's experience! Thanks 🌟

    The food and service was amazing. I personally loved the decor, but it’s not everyone’s taste. That said, the overall experience was fantastic. If you haven’t dined there, put it on your list.

    Gambi's feels very European. Loved the atmosphere. Prices were about average for an Italian Sports Bar. We liked the piano player and his wife's music. The food was pretty good, no complaints. We waited and waited and reminded twice about a glass of wine. It finally got to our table! I got my first drink in pretty decent time. The 2nd drink took a long time to receive. My thinking is that Gambi's needs more bar tenders, or at least faster ones and more servers. Otherwise, no complaints. It was a cute place and the food, and the food service was good!

    We were pleasantly surprised with the new Gambi’s location! The food was delicious and better than it was when they were in Somerset! The ambience was great with a player piano and it will definitely be one of our “go to’s” for an Italian meal and a bottle of red!
