Awesome pizza!! This was better than New York or Chicago style! Service was superb! Get there early though, it gets crowded quick!

Below average...... after reading great reviews we were excited to make a reservation, however this was the worst food we have tried in Paris, VERY AVERAGE. The restaurant is interesting, lots to look at and an old world charm, after this it's all down hill...... we had six staff members waiting our table, the best was "polite but hurried" through to one staff member who was very rude, and did not have more than a few seconds to answer food questions....... we started with a pizza to share amongst four of us, bland flavor, and dripping in cheese, good news if you like a cheese soup pizza.... moving into four different pasta dishes for entrees, all dry and lacking flavor..... I've had better tasting microwave meals. Unsure why the 5 star reviews did not match our experience, maybe an off night ? read more

Great place. Entered without reservations, which perturbed the manager a little, but they accommodated us, we were a party of two. Great atmosphere, staff spoke English if that is necessary for you. We ordered the caprese salad appetizer, which was great, with marinated sun dried tomatoes. You also get a basket of bread with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. We then had a four cheese pizza, and the lasagna which came with a giant salad. All portions were huge, we should've skipped the appetizer. Everything tasted great. We ended with some sort of chocolate puff pastry with vanilla ice cream which was insane. We also had a 500 ml carafe of house red wine, which was only 12 Euro, very good deal. Other bottles reasonable. I believe our total bill for all that was 66 Euro. And we had leftovers boxed up to take home. Very good restaurant. Highly recommend, especially for tourists. read more

I have been in Paris for 3 weeks and have already eaten here twice. They have English menus. The service is wonderful and there is a great atmosphere. The Penne Alfredo is perfection, I asked for more bread so I could wipe up the sauce from my plate. The average plate is about €15 and worth every cent! Generous portions and they are more than happy to wrap up the rest "to-go". Oh and get the half baked cake for desert, its the best chocolate lava cake I have ever had! read more

Gambino - Half baked chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream. €9 - Italian Near Me - Paris, 75

Great food and menu. The pasta is cooked perfectly and their pizzas are big. The ambience is rustic and the staff is very friendly. Beer, coffee and food all reasonably priced. Servers speak English. Ate here twice in one week because it was that delicious. read more

We were seated promptly despite the fact that the restaurant was packed. I had the sausage pizza and it was amazing. My brother and mother had the penne pasta with seafood and the ink pasta (black). Overall, great meal in a very active area that's fun to be at. Would come here again. read more

Best food we had in all of Paris! Unbelievable fresh and authentic. We started with fresh French bread best we've ever had with a nice spicy olive oil, went to Bruschetta that tasted like it was made to order and freshly picked from the garden. The entrees we chose were Veal Ravalini which was amazing, the sauces was unbelievable. The other was a stuffed shell with meat sauce, we gave that a 5 as well! Great ambiance, wine and service! You absolutely have to find this little gem, which is discreetly positioned with out a name on the building. read more

Great cozy bistro on a street filled with them; French, yet Italian with friendly service and very reasonable prices. The house red even came in a sealed bottle, not a carafe. Nice large portions, too! read more

Food was excellent and well prepared. We enjoyed both the pizza and pasta dishes as well as dessert. Waiters were able to communicate in English easily. Service was friendly but could have been more attentive. Overall it was a good dining experience and I would definitely recommend this restaurant to others. Service could have been better. read more

Delicious food, quaint decor. Authentic Italian dishes served in Italian quantities! If you're looking for Italian food in Paris, I'd highly recommend. read more

Really great food! Everything we ordered was delicious! We ordered the Lasgana, Penne All Alfredo, and spaghetti carbonara!! So delish! You also have to try their spicy oil with pizza or bread! Best meal we have had in Europe! We will be back! read more

Cute, busy and loud restaurant went here expecting a nice quiet dinner with the bf and got none of that! a bit over priced for what you get but hey that's Paris for you. The tiramisu was delicious though. read more

This place is great. Walked in and got seated immediately. Did get rushed to select our dinner. Wait staff was amazing. We selected a pizza to start. Whatever pizza you select,, you cant go wrong. Our entrees you could not ask for any better. Best Italian i have had in a while. read more

The pizza was great and the house wine was pretty good too. The price is a little much but that is to be expected in Paris. Our waitress was very helpful and had no problem explaining anything on the menu. The atmosphere was enjoyable, lots of chit chat over laid with ambient music. I would definitely go back. read more

Absolutely fabulous pizza. Very friendly staff. I will bring my family back to have dinner here soon

Brutal service but good food. The pizza was legit but the other stuff was hit or miss. Service still brutal.

Some of the best Italian food I've had outside of Italy. Didn't have reservations, but still was able to get a table anyway (very lucky b/c it was very busy!). Huge portions, too large to finish, even though I wanted to because it was that delicious. Very friendly staff who didn't make us feel terrible about not being fluent in their language. Wish we were staying long enough to go back again! read more

We've been to Paris twice, and we've eaten at Gambino three times. The food is wonderful, and the service has always been delightful. Don't be ashamed to eat Italian in Paris. Gambino is among the best meals in Paris, even if seemingly in the wrong country. read more

Great food and service. Very nice ambience. Family friendly, our kids loved it. We had the pizza, cannoli and sun dried tomato pasta. Would definitely come back. read more

Solid Italian restaurant in Paris. Ordered a pizza to be followed by a Veal Milanese and my wife ordered a vegetable anti pasta. Thankfully the waiter forgot about the pizza. The meal was huge and enough on its own. read more

Not very good pasta and over cooked. Chef does not seem to taste what he/she sends out.

Found this place near our hotel and the food was pretty good. Basic Italian food - how can you go wrong? And, they were open in the middle of August. (Many places we tried to go were closed because of vacations.) Service was fine and they graciously put up with us not speaking French. read more

Had a late dinner with my son after a very long day of touring. We had visited D Day beaches in Normandy (highly recommended) and were looking for an easy meal near our hotel. We both ordered pizzas which were fantastic. Nice thin and crispy crust. We were both impressed. My son texted a picture of his pizza to his friends because it looked so good. They also serve pasta which looked very good at other tables. We were going to come back for a 2nd meal at this restaurant but they were closed for a holiday. Nice casual restaurant for a good meal. read more

Without a doubt the best meal we had in Paris. Strolled in here about 2:30ish for lunch. They have this pepper olive oil that is insanely good that you can use with the bread they bring out. I ordered a truffle ricotta stuffed pasta which might be the best pasta that I have ever had. Wife ordered Cannelloni ricotta épinards which was pretty good too. Portions were great and the prices were very fair since it is in a pretty upscale area. Service was very friendly. All in all, pretty much the perfect restaurant. read more

The food was delicious, the atmosphere was awkward, the temperature of the room was uncomfortable until they turned on a fan (but was blowing bits of dust everywhere) The staff left something to be desired. read more

Great Italian food. Large serving sizes. Relaxing atmosphere. Try and get there between 12 and 12:30 to beat the lunch rush and get your food right away! Would go back. read more

Amazing place located in the Opera district. We went there our first day in Paris, were craving italian and this had high ratings and was not too far from us so we gave it a try. Loved everything about it, from the atmosphere, very warm and cozy, to the staff who were so welcoming and friendly, and especially the food which was so delicious and better than we even expected. This place was so great that even though we only had 2 nights in Paris and wanted to try as many places as we could in that time, we had to go back here for dinner on our last night. And even with how busy this place is, everyone working there still remembered who we were. Anyone visiting Paris has to give this place a try and see what makes it so great, can't wait to visit again read more

Really good Italian food in a busy cosy spot. Absolutely huge generous portions and more than enough to share. I had one of the salads and gnocchi. My hubby had the carpaccio and the anchovy pizza. Tiramisu was to die for. Didn't really have room for dessert but am I glad we had it! Service was great and our Swedish server also spoke English fluently! read more

Loved my pasta with shrooms, asparagus and ham. My friend and I got a half carafe of rosé! The staff was friendly and spoke English. Also the bread was amazing. Try the spicy olive oil! I could put that sh** on everything!! read more

Food was extremely expensive for the quality recieved. The space was quite crammed. To illustrate the cost, a starter of cold vegetables costs 17€ (the price of most mains). My pasta was a bit undercooked but honestly if it was maybe 10€ less I would have gone along with it. Finally, the water we got was chlorine filled two water (we didn't want to get a bottle of water as it would've been overpriced again) and the menu was of a very bad quality (couldn't read headers). However, there is a large selection of dishes to choose from. read more

This place has delicious everything! I had a penne pasta with a green sauce and it was the most amazing thing ever. We also shared a couple of pizzas that were delicious. read more

Favorite meal in Paris! Had the goat cheese ravioli with caramelized apples and loved it. Also had the bruschetta appetizer which was delicious. Very generous portions and interesting flavor combinations. Excellent. Can't wait to go back! read more

Went here for dinner with friends and it was deeelish- the buffalo mozzarella pizza was a party in my mouth! Service was good and a great place - it was just what the doctor ordered when you want a good pizza in Paris. read more

When Italian food is needed, this is a reliable refuge. Cozy on a cold day. The anti pasto salads are shareable, pizza's crust is perfect and seating upstairs is perfect for family. ALWAYS book ahead. read more

Great food, awesome service and friendly environment! Within a week, we ended up twice here as we were craving their dish!

Yum, the is the easiest way to sum up our meal. Our last night in Paris we opted for a family favorite, Italian food, & Gambino did not disappoint. There are NUMEROUS pasta & pizza options as well as some house specialties. Warning, the menu is in French & from what I could tell they don't have an English version. But don't worry, most of the staff spoke English well & helped to translate. Those that didn't were ver supportive in their own way. Three people in our party of 4 had pasta. Every dish was cleaned! One person had a pizza and was similarly satisfied/happy. Warning, portions are very large....the American family next to us took home ~3 slices from the 2 pizzas they had ordered. Overall, good food, great wine options, friendly staff & authentic Italian food, Gambino is worth your time. I recommend it!! read more

That's a very nice restaurant with a large choice of italian food. I really enjoyed the surronding and the decoration that placed us in a cozy atmosphere! Plus, the staff is very nice amd the food is tasteful read more

Really great pizza. The waitress we had was wonderful she helped explain the menu fully..

Great Service...eat upstairs if you can! All three of the people in my party enjoyed their food. For those who are unaware, the stuffed pizza is quite large (and delicious) and is what many may know as a calzone. It was a relaxed atmosphere and the serving staff were on the ball. It also wasn't super expensive for its location. Menu has a lot of choices and food arrived pretty quickly. Thoroughly enjoyed it! read more

Came here on recommendation and thoroughly enjoyed our Italian fare in this happening part of Paris. Abundant options for pasta and pizza, both equally delicious! Leaving with our hearts full and bellies happy...or vice versa :) read more
