One concern was the restaurant's policy of not allowing an elderly couple to share a meal. I've now seen this happen twice, and it left a disappointing impression. Many seniors simply don't eat large portions, and a little flexibility and understanding would go a long way toward creating a more welcoming atmosphere. Good food, but customer-focused policies would greatly improve the experience.

Located in a very quiet and secluded neighborhood, Gabriella has a private parking lot right across…read morethe street. The place itself was very easy to find. Right upon entering, I can hear English being spoken flawlessly without any accent. I would even guess that they have an American server. We were greeted and seated quickly. I ordered a small Spezi (combination of Fanta and Cola), and Justin ordered a still water (tap water in this case). We got the cheesy garlic bread to share and I started with the onion soup. For the entrees, we ordered the Rigatoni Gargonzola and the Fettucine Scampetti. The food took a fair amount of time before arriving. I don't mind the wait because we were brought our drinks and our appetizer with soup. The small size of the Spezi soda was way too small so don't make the mistake I made. Just order a large. It also taste exactly like what it is. I would have never thought to mix Cola with Fanta. Their tap water is probably one of the worse tasting water I have ever had. If you're one of those people who could taste huge differences in water, do yourself a favor and order another beverage. They charge either way so just spend your money on something more enjoyable. Cheesy Garlic Bread - Comes with 4 slices. Deliciously cheesy bread. You really can't go wrong when ordering this! Onion Soup - Very well seasoned without being overly salty. A semi-messy dish to eat because the melted cheese is stringy and sticks to everything. Not a cute thing to eat on a date or with people you don't know very well in my opinion. Rigatoni Gargonzola - When I think Gargonzola, I think of cheese in the blue cheese family. It's supposed to be a very strong taste that overpowers a lot of ingredients around it without trying too hard. That's what I was expecting. The taste of the cheese was somehow completely masked in this dish. Although the sauce was quite good, I couldn't tell there was Gargonzola. It was also a much looser and liquidy sauce than I had hoped for and expected with the pieces of sausages being overly cooked and dry. Still a very decent dish none the less. Fettucine Scampetti - Not as cheesy as a regular Alfredo sauce, but the creaminess was definitely there with the lobster flavor shining through. Shrimps were cooked to perfection. This was a very tasty dish I wouldn't mind ordering again. Overall, a lovely place with great ambience and friendly staff. A lot of Americans dine here from what I can tell. A minor thing I felt could have been better is if they provided freshly grated parmesan instead of the ones stuck in a stubborn glass shaker. Other than that, I had quite a lovely dining experience here and would definitely recommend.

While we understand that reservations should accurate and that guests who reserve should show up, everyone has a life, things happen, and people can't always make the reservation. However, the majority of the party (14+) showed up to celebrate. Due to the last minute no shows, Franca took it upon herself to yell at me in front of the entire party and other restaurant guests about this issue. Extremely unprofessional, rude and disrespectful. She was also rude at arrival, expecting guests to sit down and instantly order "so the kitchen could cook". It doesn't matter if you have reservations or have 14 people walk in off the street - the kitchen still has to cook!
