    Hidden Gem in Wheaton. Went with a few friends after an event we attended. Sitting was quick and staff were friendly. I ordered a French Onion Soup and Spanakopita. The was delicious and flavorful. The spanakopita was ok - no flavor.

    Regina's was surprisingly good. A definite throwback and while I wouldn't go out of my way to eat here, I really liked what we had. We shared zucchini fritters and the chicken souvlaki platter. Fritters were freshly battered. I think they need more seasoning though. I really enjoyed the chicken, which was flavorful. Salad was good and the fries were golden and crisp. Service was friendly. We were the only ones in the place for most of our Saturday lunch, but others were visiting as we were getting ready to leave. If you are nearby, it's not a bad stop.

    This place made me had to come back and tried more food very soon after my first time visit. Regina is a Mediterranean and Italian style restaurant. Their food was amazing as well as service and dining room. I was a little surprised because if you look from outside, the restaurant is quite small and old building, but when you get inside, they have a nice decoration, spacious and good vibe. Also, they have a counter drink bar. As for the menu might not be various as same as other authentic Italian restaurants but I think their food has a good quality and intense taste. Another good thing is there are some free parking lots in front of the restaurant, not many but enough for guests. Whoever wants to try some Italian or Mediterranean food and not sure where to start, yet. Or if you are looking for a restaurant where is peaceful and romantic atmosphere, I recommend Regina's Restaurant, you won't be disappointed!

    Regina's is doing something right. On a Saturday evening at 7pm, the place was booming. Energy was high and wine glasses were filled at each table. The parking lot in the front was a little chaotic, but there's also additional parking in the back. We were in search of a Bouillabaisse (fisherman's soup aka cioppino) and I found Regina's on Yelp. As other Yelpers have mentioned, Regina's markets itself as a Mediterranean place, which boils down to Greek and Italian dishes when you look at the menu. I made a reservation online with the Google Assistant and Regina's was ready to seat us when we arrived. We weren't sure if the reservation was necessary, but I decided to make one for our group just in case. When we arrived at 6pm, most of the tables were still available, but the place filled up by 7pm. All of the waiters were still following COVID protocols and were wearing face masks. A bottle of hand-sanitizer was also set out for customers. Warm bread and butter were brought to the table and were generously refilled throughout the night. We started with the fried calamari ($12.95) and stuffed mushrooms ($10.95) as appetizers. Maybe it's just the way the dishes were plated, but I did find the portions to be small for the price. When the fried calamari was brought out, it definitely looked like they had slid around on the plate a bit. The calamari was light and crisp but could've been more tender. They also served the rings only (no legs). The stuffed mushrooms came with four pieces and took on a spanakopita profile featuring mainly spinach and feta in the stuffing. The accompanying lemon sauce is great for dipping the bread into. In addition to the regular menu items, they also had a separate dinner specials menu. I ordered off the specials menu and went with the porcini mushroom ravioli ($20.95), which came with five sunflower-shaped raviolis with a porcini and ricotta filling in a brown Marsala sauce. I really liked my dish. The serving size was just the right amount after having the bread and additional appetizers. The raviolis were cooked to the desired al dente and the filling was the perfect creamy consistency - I would order this dish again. My table also ordered the bouillabaisse ($32), eggplant Parmesan ($18.95), chicken Marsala ($20.95), and penne arabiatta ($16.95). Everyone enjoyed their dishes and the bouillabaisse was noticeably plentiful with its seafood variety - mussels, clams, scallops, shrimp, calamari, and fish were all present in the dish. There did seem to be a learning curve with our waiter. We would ask him questions and he would respond with "I have to check" or "Let me ask." He also didn't seem very familiar with the menu when we ordered and needed visual cues, which led to some hiccups with service. But overall, he was kind and attentive throughout the evening. Our water cups were regularly topped-off and he came to check on how things were doing multiple times. We were celebrating a birthday that night and the staff was kind to bring out a sparkler and sing happy birthday with our dessert. They also honored a military discount (10% off) with proof of ID. Thanks to Regina's and their staff for a wonderful dinner.

    We enjoyed our meal at Regina's. Service was great, our food was tasty, and it looked like the restaurant varies their specials. I would definitely return.

    Overall, I thought the food at Regina's was pretty good. I went with a gyro platter, and boy did it come with a lot of food. I do not think that I've ever had so much meat in a gyro platter before. In addition, to the meat, the platter came with a small salad and a side of rice (or french fries). So, it definitely was a pretty good deal for $15. While I had a decent meal, I have to admit that I did feel somewhat uncomfortable when I first arrived. Ok, I arrived in my workout clothes (and was a little sweaty) so maybe I was dressed a bit too causal for the place. However, I arrived about an hour before closing and there were only about 7 folks (between three tables) in the place. The man that greeted me at the front of the restaurant kind of gave me a look like I wasn't supposed to be there. Or rather, he seemed confused with my presence. After I was seated, I definitely noticed the man staring at me from the bar a few times. Do not get me wrong, he was not mean or rude (and maybe I'm making a small mountain out of a molehill), but something about this experience just didn't sit right with me. Weirdness aside, I thought the two waitresses that served me were very friendly.

    The bottom line is that the Mediterranean comes into contact with a lot of countries. Regina's tries to cover a lot of bases. It's kinda Italian, kinda French, kinda Greek. Chances are if the family goes here, everyone is going to find SOMETHING on the menu that'll make them happy. Is the food mind-blowing? No. Is it pretty good...better than average? Yes. We did eggplant, stuffed shrimp, and spaghetti Bolognese. The last one was close to excellent. The shrimp had random pieces of shell (more than usual) in the crab filling and the yellow sauce on top was a little odd. The eggplant was tender and over all pretty good. We like this place - the service is good and the staff are pleasant. We'll come back because, as I said earlier, there's always something on the menu that'll make everyone happy.

    Clam and Linguini

    This nice little restaurant is hidden away in a strip mall. The outside may seem unassuming, but the inside of the restaurant is a very nice and cozy environment. The waiters we had were very nice and were able to make specific modifications to our food, and even allowed us to order items not on the menu. We got the clam linguini and the veggie pasta primavera (not on the menu). The clam linguini was a very nice combination. The clam and garlicy sauce in the linguini paired very well together and meshed to create a cohesive flavor. The veggie pasta primavera was both hearty and light at the same time. The sauce was nutty and had an earthy undertone. I feel like the clam and linguini relied heavily on the clams for the dish, while the veggie pasta primavera was enjoyable with every bite. Really cool spot, give it a try if you're looking for something new in the area.

    A good neighborhood sit-down restaurant for when you want a step up from casual. There are many casual restaurants in this area, so Regina's is an ideal place for a date night or somewhere to take your parents. The menu is Italian/Mediterranean and feels more traditional than trendy. I was surprised by the décor when I stepped inside, it was nicer than I would've expected from the outside. Parking is in a lot in front of the strip mall. I haven't needed reservations when I came here twice with my husband. There are many tables. The portions are large. The servers were attentive, so we did not feel forgotten. The food is easy to please, but not extraordinary, so it wouldn't necessarily be a place you drive out of your way for. We are locals and are glad to have this place as an option!

    We discovered Regina's a few weeks after they opened and have dined here at least once a month since. Always start off with their spinach-stuffed mushrooms - fan-tastic! We've tried a number of different items as the main course - all cooked superbly! on this visit I had a personal favorite, the Salmon which comes with spinach & potatoes. My Girlfriend ordered Ribeye from the specials menu. As always, we were blown away! Finished off with a lite dessert of Limoncello cake - a great end to a great meal! Regina's has a nice relaxed atmosphere, the staff is super friendly, helpful & attentive, and did I mention the food is AWEsome! This is one of the best restaurants in the area...highly recommended!

Good variety and not too many options. There's meat, veggies, and seafood. I'm uncertain whether they can specifically modify any dishes for vegan. - Quality. Delicious. My trout was nicely filleted, well seasoned (not overly salty), and the skin was extra crispy. It was served over a bed of celery, potatoes, and cauliflower that were tender. Their shoestring fries were not overly salty and were nicely crispy. Their seasonal dish of grilled shrimp with their barley salad was also very flavorful. The shrimp were well-seasoned and a nice texture (i.e., not overly cooked/rubbery). The profiteroles were sweet, but not overly so, and had a nice amount of chocolate sauce drizzled over it. - Service. Excellent. Our waitress was attentive and checked in on us within decent time intervals, refilled our water glasses - Location. Conveniently located within a plaza with many different options. You can walk around and check out other shops, as well. During nice weather, there's supposedly outdoor seating. Their tables don't appear to be able to seat parties in the double digits. - Layout. Inside layout is not decent, but not expansive. There are a fair number of booths and tables. I've been told that the provide outdoor seating when the weather is nice. Given the limited seating, I highly recommend making reservations. What's Not - Acoustics. Terrible inside. We could barely hear the wait staff who talked to us. We had to ask her several times to repeat the information she gave us Sound carries very easily inside, especially when it's full. - Parking. There is parking in the area, but depending on the day you come, it can be difficult to find. Given that I was there during on a Sunday afternoon, it was difficult to find parking. The nearby outdoor lots were all filled and street parking was difficult to find. Fortunately, my friends told me about a parking lot at the nearby Porsche dealership, which was not costly and is well-automated. For about the 2 hours I was there, I paid under $4 total. The Porsche parking lot is also able to read your license plate. - Cost. To be fair, it's going to depend on what you order. When you combine drinks, any seasonal dishes (and the wait staff did not tell us the cost of the seasonal dishes we ordered), and dessert, it's a fair amount. - Reservations. Definitely recommend making reservations, rather than walking in. Final Answer Would be willing to come back here again, but probably not a first choice.
