    We arrived at our Airbnb and they recommended coming here. I'm so glad we chose this restaurant. The food is outstanding. The view is breathtaking. I hope someday we will be able to come back. I highly recommend coming here.

    Pear stuffed ravioli
    Laurie G.

    It's been a long time since we've eaten at Gino's but after having dinner there last week we will definitely return! We did not have reservations but the hostess was very gracious and sat us immediately at a quaint table for two. I had probably the best ravioli dish I have ever had! It was the Pear Ravioli - yes stuffed ravioli with pears with a roasted onion cream sauce and topped with candied walnuts, cranberries and blue cheese crumbles. Absolutely delicious!!! My husband had the Pescatora. It had lobster, prawns, clams, calamari, scallops, and mussels in a zesty marinara sauce served over tagliatelle pasta. Paired with a bottle of Champagne, it was a fabulous meal.

    We celebrated our anniversary dinner here last month. This restaurant is right next to the beach /waterfront, which shares a parking lot with the beach goers. Unfortunately, we did not know this so finding parking was a bit of a headache. The staff was very kind when I called them explaining we are running late since we couldn't find parking. Once inside we were promptly seated at our table. The inside is small, romantic and has some views of the water. The food we ordered was delicious. Although it was a busy weekend evening the food came out quickly. The drinks and desserts were also very tasty. I would recommend this place just be mindful of the parking!

    Risotto Di Amore

    Made a reservation last minute. I was pleasantly surprised they had space on Mother's day. Arrived 15mins early for our 6:15 reservation and checked in and waited outside. The inside waiting area was packed. We got seated early and got bread and water. The busser made sure we always had enough water. It took a really long time before a server arrived. We ordered drinks. I noticed the server was also making drinks. A couple sat at the bar and then ordered. They got their drinks. We waited and waited. When our drinks arrived (6:40) we ordered an appetizer "Lox". The drinks were so good. Our appetizer again took a little while to arrive (6:57) but it was delicious. We ordered diner when the appetizer arrived. For diner we ordered Risotti Di Amore and the Short Rib. Diner arrived faster(7:14) and was absolutely delicious. The server again took some time to come to our table. We wanted creme brulee for desert but they were out. We had the butter cake(7:57) it was yummy. We also had the Lemon curd dome, it was ok. We paid 249.79 (which included a 20% large party gratuity in hindsight: 1. There was only 2 of us. 2. It wasn't previously stated, is this normal here?) I really wanted to rate them higher because the food was really good but the service just wasn't .

    Smoked salmon Alfredo + "Sophia" + Twin tenderloin + "Amor"

    First off WOW. This place has exceeded so much of my expectations and the service goes above and beyond. We made reservations and the hostess let us choose where we would like to sit (great start already) and then we sat down and our water was filled already for us like ok even more wow! Our waitress was so sweet I'm not good at names but she was amazing, we had asked her for recommendations since we've never been here before and pretty much went with what she has said. They were all very attentive especially when we had accidentally dropped our silverware! Long story short we came here to celebrate our anniversary to which they do a free complimentary wine and it was delicious! Food was amazing, I noticed for my Alfredo pasta it must've been hand made since the cut of the noodle isn't the usual ones you would see, I've never had salmon alfredo pasta so that is now something I will crave in the future. I'll say the bread was delicious it was warm and stayed warm until we pretty much devoured it, lol. The drinks were amazing in the Amor you can really taste that smoky flavor on the mezcal and in Sophia that's such a fruity and fresh drink, if I had a bottomless stomach I would order more food. The ambiance was super cozy and I never noticed this but it is family owned which I very much love and will always give a lot of support for.

    We made reservations for 6pm but got there earlier for happy hour. Parking was easy. We had two drinks at the bar then moved to our table (great water view). My wife chose this place for my birthday dinner. Don't expect anything special after being asked what you're celebrating. I got a candle I couldn't blow out and a happy birthday only after we ordered dessert. I'm not sure there would have been any sort of celebration had we not purchased dessert. Felt strange. Outside of that underwhelming and honestly unnecessary exchange we enjoyed the experience. We ordered a second cocktail, Avacado Relleno (a special), salmon Alfredo, and bone in T-bone steak. Definitely hats off to the chef. We enjoyed every bite of our entrees. Our server, Bella, was super sweet and was the only one working but did not miss a beat. To circle back dessert was not tasty and I should have passed on it. It's probably was the only thing I didn't enjoy. My wife had hers to-go and didn't enjoy it either. Could just be preference of texture and flavors. My butter cake seemed more like a biscuit and was bitter. Overall I'd come again for the dinner menu and specials. The ambiance is also really romantic.

    Food was good but the service was horrendous. We got sat 20-40 minutes past our reservation and it was not busy. The waitress acted annoyed the entire time, didn't ask to get us a second round of drinks and barely checked on us. There were fruit flies every where and even the table next to us were clapping to try to kill the bugs. Parking is annoying too.

    Ribeye
    Kalena C.

    This restaurant has excellent food and amazing service! I really love how intimate it is inside, but also appreciate that they have outdoor seating as well. I wish I had more pictures to provide, but I am too busy stuffing my face! We always start with the wicked prawns! Huge prawns served with a flavorful and slightly spicy tomato sauce and bread. This last time around, I got the ribeye (again) and my husband got the twin tenderloin. Now I am a ribeye girl through and through, but these filets.... WOW! I kept saying how I have never had a filet with such amazing flavor and texture! I get my ribeye rare and he got his medium rare. Excellent cook on both steaks. We let our waitress know that these meals were better than what we've had at some of our favorite steak houses! In all, I am never disappointed and will always come back to Gino's!

    Brie Cheese w/ crostini
    Leah S.

    Wow! What an amazing dinner my family and I had here at Gino's!!! I cannot say enough incredible things about the food and the owner, Gino himself along with his two beautiful Daughters! His daughter Alexis was our waitress and she took excellent care of us. The food tasted phenomenal and each dish was truely crafted and cooked with love. We ordered the Calamari which was very crispy yet tender, oysters that were grilled to perfection and were very fresh! The beet salad was beautifully executed with a tasty dressing. The Brie cheese served with crostini melted in your mouth and was paired beautifully with a fig preserve, candied walnuts and a honey basalmic drizzle! We all ordered around the menu for our entrees. The scallops were truely pan seared to perfection! The halibut was a generous and thick cut yet it was also cooked all the way through while remaining juicy. The tenderloin Medallions with a Demi glaze.. wow! The Demi glaze was such a nice pairing with the steak itself which by the way was very tender and cooked to a perfection Medium rare. It truely also melted in your mouth! The raviolis were all cooked all dente and each sauce really was knocked out of the ball park. We all finished off with one of each desserts which were all 10/10. Thanks Alexis and Gino for the amazing experience I am so happy we got the pleasure to dine at your beautiful Family owned restaurant. We will be back!

    Spinach salad

    Delicious special last night - Papillote King salmon and spinach salad. Pleasant and attentive service by Espy. Previous visit was the first time; flatbread was wonderful. Nice chatting with Naya then.

    First timer! I came here for my birthday & it definitely did not disappoint. Loved how cozy it felt inside. We had reservations, so not quite sure how long the wait would be without it. Food was so so good as so were the cocktails! Ohh they also had a sparkler lit up for me! Guessing it's their birthday surprise for guests, lovely touch! Plenty of parking as well! Will definitely be back!

    Is this near where Salty's is/was?

    No it's not. It's located adjacent to Dash Point Park. Salty's was located on Redondo Beach.

    Is this place worth the cost?

    Pasty of the cost is the fact that it is waterfront dining. That will always come at a premium. That said, the food is absolutely delicious and my wife and I just ate there for the third time on Friday. I realize you posed your question last year,… 

    Are there any dairy free options?

    Yes, there are dairy free options, and gluten free as well. all you have to do is ask.

Cant fit more than two entres in table so kinda had to hurry up and finish our appetizers rather quickly to make space. Service could be better with more attention.

We were quickly seated for our reservation, and our server was friendly & attentive. We started off with a delectable appetizer special of burrata with heirloom tomatoes, pesto and olive tapenade. The tangy tapenade really complimented the creamy burrata. We were also served the softest french bread, which sopped up the pesto so nicely. We were lucky enough to get a bite of all 4 dinner entrees on the table. I ordered one of the daily specials, the Saltimbocca. The chicken/prosciutto combo was so flavorful in the white wine sauce. The portion was plentiful, I could have taken a doggy bag, but devoured it bite by bite. I was thankful to have made this choice - score! Hubs ordered the Diavola pizza, with crisp pepperoni and pickled serranos. Either the serranos or red pepper sauce gave it quite the kick, not overly, but deliciously. It was perfectly crispy! Family ordered Carbonara and the lamb ragu. Both great portions, very flavorful! Our dinners came with a salad, which was a perfectly lightly dressed compliment to the appetizer and mains. We drove quite awhile in 5:00 traffic to get here, but it was well worth it. We savoured every bite!

We called the day of, and they were booked out until 7:45. Which makes sense considering how small the restaurant is. I'll start off by saying that the food was the highlight of the night for sure. But, the service wasn't the best from what I've heard from others. We ordered a bottle of wine, which took about 10-15 minutes to be served to us after the order was taken. Then when we were putting our appetizer order in, the server told us to wait while he handled something else. But, I've heard from close friends that the service is amazing, so maybe it was just an off-night for them. Anywho, we ordered the arancini, arugula and Gorgonzola salad, and the caprese. My favorite was the caprese. The tomato's were nice and juicy and tasted amazingly fresh. Mozzarella and basil also delicious. It was a nice refreshing appetizer. The arancini is a pretty heavy dish which makes sense since it's risotto stuffed with bolognese and cheese. I wish it was hotter, but the flavors were yummy. I ordered the bucatini that was on their specials menu. It was served with a sauce similar to Alfredo but a lot lighter than I expected. It also came with zucchini, mushrooms, and a prosciutto-like meat. It was my first time trying bucatini, and I was definitely not disappointed by it! They had great specials that night, so we were very fortunate to have caught them serving these dishes. We finished the night off with tiramisu, and it was delicious. Overall, I would definitely come back and hope for better service. But the food is something I would come back to regardless.

This spot is off A street and is located within the big grey building that is the post office. You'll enter where there's stairs on both sides of a grey wall/stone structure. And once you're in, take a right and and the restaurant will be straight ahead. And of course parking, downtown is mostly street parking. And you have to pay during certain hours, so look at the signs to enure you don't get a ticket because the police are pretty well known to not give any grace. Made a reservation online to celebrate a birthday. (And just FYI with the small print, if you cancel less than a day before or a no show, you are subject to a $20 fee PER person). Alright, so this spot has no air conditioning even though its pretty small in there, so I'd recommend sitting outside. Or else, the inside can become a sauna especially in the summer. Had initially requested to sit inside, totally forgetting about the no A/C and my friend who has never been here requested to sit outside. But the server became short with us and was less than pleasant but had intially agreed to take us outside. So it was a confusing situation. And I was embarrassed to bring my friend here because they were talked at and not to and was suggested to sit at a dirty table at that. Food was mid and wasn't as good as it used to be. There wasn't much flavor in either dish.
