    What a great lil Italian pizza restaurant. Marcelle helped us out as it was close to closing time but took our order and was a terrific host. We took the pizza back to our campsite and I also ordered the spaghetti and meatballs. Excellent pie with fresh quality ingredients. Hearty meatballs with a quality marinara sauce. Marcelle also brought us plates, napkins and utensils as well as offered us a drink while waiting. Quality customer service, food and ambiance. Highly recommended

    Lunch portion Chicken parmesan.

    Went to Gino's for lunch. First time here and loved the space. The owner was very nice and explained the lunch specials. I ordered the chicken parmesan lunch special which is a half chicken parm over spaghetti with salad and a drink. The portion size was ample and delicious! After my meal I played their pinball machine which was Jurassic Park. So much fun. I will definitely be back the next time I am in Buellton, CA.

    Came up to Santa Barbara county for some business. Stayed in Buellton and needed a place for dinner. Thankfully I found Gino's, what a great little Family spot. It is located off the Ave of the Flags in the downtown area, the are is a throw back to a simpler time, such a cute street. Reminds me of where I grew up in the Midwest. The staff here is very friendly, I spoke to the owner (I believe) for a bit and he was telling me the story behind the 13 stripes wine they have there. This is a local winery that is connected to the military and proceeds from the sales support brave service men and women who serve or served. Great cause. Now to the food, fist let me say, bring your appetite, I ordered an individual Spicy Mexican pizza, it was bigger than most other places medium pizza. I was impressed with the value for the money for sure and was not expecting so much food. I ordered a side salad as well, it was wayyy too much, but happy surprise. Left overs are always great in my book. The pizza itself was amazing, Chorizo, Italian sausage, cilantro, onions, tomato. There was a bit of spice to the meats, but not overwhelming, I actually would have liked it to be spicier, but still excellent. The crust was thick, edges were crisp and fluffy, great flavor to the crust. The salad had a lot of mozzarella on top, tomato and lettuce. Simple house salad, which I love. Their homemade house Italian dressing set it off for me. They also have a number of old school arcade games, growing up in the 80's and my parents owning an arcade, it really brings back great memories. Great experience and would visit again when in the area. Great food, great service and supporting a great cause. Go check them out and support a Family business.

    Calzone
    Michael H.

    OK, I will say the portion sizes are great and they offer you the ability to have small medium large, which is awesome. Calzone was delicious and the chicken Parm itself was delicious. The sauce, however, here is made a lot different than most Italian places. It's made with pepper and it definitely makes the taste of the sauce a little different . For most it may not be bad, but for me and my family, the taste is different enough for me to not really like it. It could be they used different tomatoes as well in making their sauce. Service is OK it's pretty much order and bring to your table . The ambience is just of a small Italian place in downtown Buelton

    We were too lazy to go get dinner so we decided to get some pizza. We were going to order through DoorDash but had some questions so called the restaurant. Turns out they delivered for a small fee so we ended up ordering from them. We saved a few bucks because we didn't have to pay the up charge on food prices and service fee on DoorDash, plus this business gets to keep all of their money. The veggie pizza was great. I loved it. My hubby thought there was a bit too much olives so I told him to just pick some off lol. Crust was still nice and chewy despite delivery. We also got our food in less than 30 mins. The Caesar salad had good flavor but there was way too much dressing. I didn't realized it was going to come with dressing on it since it was delivery. Best part was leftover pizza the next day. Still delicious. Highly recommend.

    Love this location in Buellton !!  Stop on by !
    Frank D.

    This Gino's Pizza location never disappoints ! Per usual, our pizzas were cooked to taste and perfection ! The crust is golden brown while keeping a great crunch to every delicious bite ! My wife always orders the personal mushroom and sausage, while I continue to keep my spicy capicola and sausage fix going. The sausage and capicola has the perfect balanced amount of spicy and heat. The menu has many other hearty options as well to tantalize your tastebuds !! The staff offers warm greetings while always keeping busy while the restaurant remains clean and aromatic ! Enjoy ! Cheers !

    Fettuccine Alfredo

    I was craving a hearty bowl of fettuccine and this place absolutely hit. Pizza has a solid thick crust and the Alfredo is cheesy and comforting. Employees are super kind and helpful

    Amazing food, excellent service and I can't wait to come back! Cute, cozy ambiance and just what we needed rolling into buellton on a Monday evening. The guys working there are great at what they do-we were absolutely satisfied with Gino's pizzeria. Thank you!

    Chicken Parmigiana
    Zsadé R.

    Recently, my boyfriend and I decided to give Gino's Pizza a try and ordered a few dishes to take home. We ordered a Margherita pizza (which unfortunately wasn't pictured because we got it to go), and my boyfriend went with the Chicken Parmigiana. He found the Chicken Parmigiana to be just okay and felt it didn't quite meet his expectations. I opted for the Fettuccini Alfredo with chicken. While the pasta itself was decent, I noticed it lacked flavor and had to add salt and pepper to enhance the taste. We both agreed that the quality of the chicken could have been better. On a positive note, the service was swift, and I appreciated the generous salad portion, which was enough for both of us. The restaurant had a nice ambiance, but I was disappointed that there were no visible bathrooms for customers. Overall, while there were some highlights, particularly the quick service and salad portion, the main dishes fell a bit short for us. I hope they can improve on the quality of some of their menu items.

    Pastrami sandwich and pep/cheese pizza

    Visiting Solvang and wanted some good good pizza! So glad we found Gino's! We knew it was gonna be a hit as soon as we drive up! The set up is legit! They have a few arcade games inside for the kids! Very open and nice ambiance! I The food is AMAZING, the service was exceptional!! It was soo good that We went two days in a row...had pep pizza which was delicious, the pizza crust is soooo thick and yummy! We also had the pastrami Sandwich which is the best I've ever had! Highly recommend!!

    Meat lovers!

    My family and I stopped at your restaurant on our way home to Lompoc because the menu and website…read morephotos looked great. We ordered the chicken picatta and sole picatta to-go, tipped despite not dining in, and drove 20 miles home. When we opened the boxes, both orders were incorrect. According to the board menu, the sole picatta comes with arugula, beets, pistachios, and potatoes (no capers), and the chicken picatta comes with capers, spinach, and potatoes. Instead, both dishes came with pasta and none of the listed sides. More concerning, the sole had capers--even though we specifically asked when ordering because my partner is allergic and were told it does not include them. Meanwhile, the chicken picatta, which should have had capers, had none. Portions were also quite small for the $22 price point. We tried calling the restaurant eight times with no answer. After contacting the liquor store it's located inside, we were told to call back in five minutes. When we did, the call wouldn't even go through. Since we couldn't reach anyone, we drove the 20 miles back to Buellton to request a refund. When I showed the chef the incorrect dishes, he insisted the picatta dishes come with pasta and produced a small, crumpled paper menu from under the counter showing that version. We were never given this menu and ordered solely from the board displayed above. There was no apology and no offer to remake the meals, only a refund when I requested it. The employee who originally helped us acknowledged they "haven't gotten around" to updating the board menu. Other reviews mention similar issues with discrepancies between the board and the paper menu, which suggests this is an ongoing problem. Thankfully, we received a refund and our tip back, but we drove a total of 60 miles and ended up without dinner, eventually eating at Blaze Pizza at 9:45pm after ordering from you at 6:15pm. Despite this disappointing experience, we would be willing to give your restaurant another try if complimentary meal vouchers could be offered. We understand that busy periods can lead to mistakes, but the lack of accountability and apology was the most frustrating part. Acknowledging errors and making things right builds trust. Photos of what was advertised versus what we received are attached. We hope for a better experience in the future; otherwise, we unfortunately will not return.

I expected the angel hair on the side but actually stuffing it in the eggplant, gave it such a depth of flavor, it made me a fan of angel hair. The Salsiccie, oven roasted sausage that comes with 3 was a bit salty for me since it's just over cannellini beans. Having some pasta on the side may cut down on the saltiness.

Since our table wasn't quite ready, they invited us to grab a drink at the attached bar while we waited. This review is specifically about the bar. I was surprised that the bar at a Michelin-starred restaurant didn't have a blender, as it seemed to limit the cocktail options available to guests. My husband's friend asked for a lemon martini and then inquired about a lemon daiquiri. The response from the bartender, Monica, made the request seem unusual or overly complicated, which made the interaction feel less welcoming than expected. I'm sorry but Monica could sure use some tips on customer service and professionalism. I watched this interaction from where I was sitting nearby and it was cringy. If certain cocktails can't be prepared because of equipment or menu limitations, that's completely understandable. However, it would be helpful if those limitations were communicated in a more guest-friendly way and accompanied by alternative recommendations. At a restaurant of this caliber, I'd expect the bar experience to reflect the same level of hospitality as the dining room. Once we were seated, the dining room staff was attentive, welcoming, and accommodating, and the rest of our evening was enjoyable.
