Food was good. Quickly served, but fresh. I would recommend it for any one or family. Family friendly too. Pizza and Chicken Alfredo Pasta, 2 Orangina's and water which came out to 57€. read more

We had a truly amazing experience at this adorable Parisian restaurant. The food was incredible. I ordered the pasta pesto, and my boyfriend got the veal. We both agreed it was one of the best meals we had during our 10 day stay in Paris. The chestnut cake with ice cream that we had for dessert was by far one of my favorite desserts as well. However, perhaps even better than the food was the incredible wait staff. We arrived right before they were getting ready to take care of a 20+ person group. Our waiter, Elliot, was considerate enough to make an effort to get our orders in before the party so we wouldn't have to wait since there were only two of us. He gave us excellent recommendations, conversation, and the other waiters checked on us as well to make sure we were satisfied. We absolutely loved the whole experience! read more

Squid ink pasta is a must try! Carbonara was delicious too, can't wait to come back for more

Its a typical Paris like restaurant ... and for any international traveller this place would qualify to 'a hole in a wall' kinda place. But ... don't judge the book by its cover. This place offer great food, pretty decent list of options to chose from ... and to top it all very nice teams of servers. It was a great experience. I HIGHLY recommend trying the desserts here ... you'll be pleasantly surprised. read more

We ate a disappointing meal here. We found average Italian-style food that missed the mark. We ordered the Neapolitan pizza and the gnocchi. We didn't finish either. It was cheap ingredients like pre-sliced black olives on the pizza and packet gnocchi that is like chewing like bullets. Service was ok, they were reluctant to give us a table initially, after huffing a few times they found us a table for two in a restaurant with several empty tables. If your looking for delicious Italian in Paris, keep scrolling. read more

I so wanted to enjoy this place I tried really hard and got here at 2:30. It says close at three. But it seems like 3 o'clock means get the F out of here. They display liquor bottles. But you cannot have that. When I arrived at 2:30 I had to order my App Carpaccio,My entrée squid ink. They should've timed it. It is 306 I am asked to leave. Two stars because I loved my food I wish I could in a timely manner. read more

Gambino - Squid Ink Pasta - Italian Near Me - Paris, 75

Food factory with low price/quality value. The restaurant is big and professional but it lacks passion and taste you can find elsewhere. We have eaten in two smaller Italien restaurants in Paris and they were both cheaper and had better taste and atmosphere. read more

The lasagna is amazing, one the best I've ever had. I customized a pasta dish on a second visit which was not as good so my advice is to order on the menu! Any of their pizzas are great, good crust but a little too floppy for my liking in the center. Minor detail. They get you to a table fairly quickly and the food comes out fast, but the service can be a little spotty since more than one server attends to each table. I'm not sure if there was an English menu but I was able to discern most of the ingredients even though I do not speak French. For the words I didn't know, the servers were happy to translate. The atmosphere is modern, trendy, and bustling. Much like a place we would frequent back home in the bay area (California). read more

Awful From the service to the wine to the food. Maybe the Pizza is why it has gotten 4.5 stars but we didn't get a chance to order Because the service was awful. We ordered the caprese. It was piled with arugula. The tomatoes were unripe. read more

This place is amazing !! Best food !!! Every time I come to Paris I come here on the minimum once ! Staff amazing cool vibe cannot go wrong

We were starving and popped in without a reservation. The ambiance was great and they sat us right away. The food was very flavorful and exactly what we were looking for. I'd recommend it to anyone looking for authentic Italian cuisine. read more

Located just off the main avenue, the setting is quiet with a beautiful upstairs section. Exposed woodwork in this very old building makes the dining unique and sets a great divided but open atmosphere between tables. Good for a date or groups, this place has amazing Italian food alongside French specialties and great wines. The buffalo mozzarella is incredible, and so is the house wine. Waiters give plenty of attention, and food comes on time. Would definitely come here again with family and friends. read more

This place is amazing!! They had some of the best fried mozzarella ever, instead of a tomato sauce they serve it with marinated tomatoes. The Margherita pizza was awesome!!! The atmosphere was great and the staff friendly and they spoke perfect English. We had a half bottle of their house rosé which was delicious and want to go back and try their Nutella Tiramisu!! read more

I'm a New Yorker & Italian so am used to good Italian food in the states. Well Gambino blew my husband and i away. The food here is the best we've ever had and during our 4 day stay in Paris we came back twice. We can't wait to re-visit Paris to come to our new favorite Italian restaurant. Highly recommend! read more

Fantastic food! We ate a margarita pizza and a pizza that had some chicken, peppers, onions, and ground beef - thin crust style. Both were excellent. Definitely has some great bread and dipping oils, as well! The atmosphere was quaint, and the lack of english menus made us feel a bit more local. Reasonable prices as well. One star came off because the service was a bit slow - 1.5 hours for our meal which was just the two pizzas (no dessert or appetizers). Waited about 15 minutes for the first service and 15 for the check. No water or drink replenishment either, which obviously isn't that crazy for Paris... read more

We found this based on other reviews and loved it! The food was authentic and a great ambiance. We shared the mozzarella as an app and thought it was outstanding! The truffle pizza is a must try! read more

What a great place this turned out to be for lunch! We stumbled upon it hungry and tired, and this place delivered on atmosphere, food, and staff -- the perfect trifecta. Delicious pizza, outstanding pasta, salads that were huge and beautiful, great bread with tasty dipping oils, and hearty handshakes on the way in and in the way out. I'd go back here on every trip to Paris! read more

Found this place on yelp and decided to go since it was a close by walk. SO happy we did! It was rush hour right before their dinner break. We walked in to find a much larger restaurant than expected, definitely a hidden gem. We had about a 5 minute wait for a table. I ordered the gnocchi and my boyfriend had the classic spaghetti, we completely devoured both. Absolutely delicious! read more

Typically Italian in France is hit or miss, but this place is a grand slam home run! Wait staff was awesome, food was phenomenal and the desserts should be illegal (try the half baked chocolate cake with ice cream). read more

This is probably the best restaurant I've ever been to. The food was incredible, the service prompt and friendly and the atmosphere warm and rustic. The location near the Louvre and the Opera also makes it a convenient stop when seeing the sights. They have a huge menu with a range of pizzas and pastas. I could not say enough good things. read more

Amazing Italian in Paris! I had the ribbon pasta with a crime pesto and mushrooms. It was delicious and savory. My wife had the lasagna and it came out perfect. My daughter had the margarita pizza and it was the delicious and light. read more

The staff was unatttentive and a bit immature. They were having a good time, laughing, hitting each other and neglected us. It took us forever to order and our entrees took a long while to get. The food was mostly unimpressive except for the bruschetta. The pesto sauce on it was amazing and huge. None of us ate the rest of the food. I am assuming we should have ordered pizzas. read more

This was hands down our favorite meal of the trip. We opted for the casa pizza and the tortellini with ham, asparagus and truffles and both dishes were simply amazing. You could have told me someone's grandmother was hand making everything and, I would have believed you. Having experienced how good the main dishes were, we had to opt for dessert. We decided on the chocolate cake and, it was magical. My husband I I literally gorged ourselves as the food was too good to waste. The staff was warm, friendly, and spoke perfect English. If you have an craving for Italian food in Paris, this place is a must. read more

Great find near the Opera. Excellent, well-prepared food and great wines.

Sorry to say, but this place was bad. They had the most rude and arrogant waitress we've ever stumbled up on till this day. From the moment we sat down she just had to have the worst attitude ever. It started with my wife asking about the menu and if they had any specialties and what was here favorites etc. Seems kind of normal right?! Apparently our waitress didn't have any and demonstrated that she likes pizza over pasta since we were going for pasta. Secondly we asked for a full-bodied wine and wanted her advice so she suggested Chianti over Ripasso. We kindly asked if the Chianti was a more powerful wine and she replied that Chianti always is as if we were retarded. Up until now we were mostly fascinated buy her horrible attitude but said that it wouldn't ruin our last night out in Paris. She then came with the bread which was BURNT, I mean like black on crust. I asked her; "Whats this?" She replied; "It's bread!" Again trying to make me feel retarded. So I kept asking; "Yes, but what's this? Pointing towards the BURNT bread. She replied; "French bread". So we kept on and she started to question if I've ever had French bread etc. And I said yes I can tell it's a baguette if that's what you mean. And she replied that it was a baguette until they cut it up and it transforms into tadaaaa "French bread". This is when I had to brace myself for not slapping her in the face. So we told her we want new bread and she left while I called for the management and informed them about the situation. Kindly enough they replaced her with another waitress who was really kind and they only ended up charging us for the pasta and Chianti. They gave us free bresaola with parmesan, coffee, grappa and amaretto plus a glass each of prosecco. If it wasn't for this and the new waitress they would have gotten one star. The Chianti wine was actually really good but the pasta wasn't anything extra. My paccheri pescatore didn't have much taste to it and my wife's ravioli with ricotta and spinach was ok but very creamy. Sad to say but this is a tourist trap in my opinion. There's far better places in Paris. Even if they wouldn't have had the arrogant waitress working there they would have only received a three star rating for the food. However thanks to the lovely Swedish waitress who took care of us and tried her best to make it a nice night! read more

Gambino - Pizzas were pretty good, mushroom pasta amaze - Italian Near Me - Paris, 75

Super friendly staff welcomed us. Small restaurant - quite warm. Service was quite good, though we ordered salad that never arrived (also was not on bill) Pizza was good but not the likes of Italian pizza that makes you dream about it. It was fresh flavorful and reasonably priced. Pasta carbonara was mediocre for my taste, but my husband thought it was good. It wasn't AMAZING. Here's my take - you need a break from French food and pricey restaurants? This is good location, good food, reasonable price & the service is very good. I can't say it's the best. read more

Super large portions, one pizza is big enough for two people, overall good food!! Would definitely want to see what else is out there though. For my first trip to Paris It was definitely worth it! read more

This place literally made my Parisian experience. Coming from USA and speaking little French, we have dealt with shitty service and rude people since we arrived in Paris, Upon arriving at Gambinos we were greeted by Marc, who spoke english, and we were treated so well. The pasta was so amazing and Marc helped me celebrate my birthday by leading the whole restaurant in singing happy birthday in English. I would 1000% recommend this place. Thank you for making Paris and my birthday so special. read more

Favorite Italian spot in Paris. Their pizza is fantastic, but the pasta holds its weight as well. For a safe choice for a picky appetite, the Spaghetti Del Sole will not disappoint. House white and rosè wines are delicious as well and very affordable. Service is great, overall a BOMB (fantastic) restaurant. read more

Amazing pizza and pasta!!! Not my favorite atmosphere/interior design but the food is absolutely delicious!

If you're looking for classic Italian pasta and pizza in Paris then this is the place to go. It's packed upstairs and down so be ready to sit close to your neighbor. One pizza is big enough for two people easily and the waitstaff is super nice and helpful. read more

Worst service ever. Took over 20 minutes to order and over 30 to pay. Felt like a prisoner. Big waste of time coming here. Will not be back. Spent an hour looking over my shoulder trying to flag down a waiter. They kept asking me to wait and never came back. Tip = $0. Food was good though. read more

Portion sizes are very generous. We could barely finish our pasta, not to mention they obviously give you bread and pita to snack on while you wait! Nevertheless we didn't have to wait along anyway, the pasta came pretty quickly and was very hot! Service is lovely, restaurant has a nice, warm, and welcoming ambience. Would recommend! read more

Gambino - Italian Near Me - Paris, 75

We loved this place, so many options for pizza and we went out on a limb and tried something we've never tried before and it tasted amazing! Portion size was perfect for two. The atmosphere is great and everyone seemed to be enjoying their company. We had the best server and he pretty much talked to us completely in English, he was very good at it, and made us feel so welcome. I'll definitely be coming back! read more

Amazing. After several days of mediocre food in Paris, finally came across this fantastic Italian restaurant. Authentic flavors, sizzling hot food and friendly service. Menu was in French AND English, which is smart business considering there's a lot of tourists. Compliments to the chef! read more
