I love this place! My dad used to take us as family here as a kid. I recently went with my husband and he loved it! He ordered the shrimp Costa Azul and they we're huge! I ordered the chicken enchiladas and we both got albondigas soup. Everything was so good!
9/9/25.. 8:00pm Food was really good.. no issues at all.. Our server was excellent, I did not get her name. Big menu, would definitely recommend
I reviewed this place once and it was a great experience. BUT!!! I went in today with my girlfriend and my man BIG CHAPO took care of us. I right a review about almost everywhere I eat out good or bad service. But let me tell you this man went out his way to make sure my meal was EXACTLY how I wanted and im peculiar about me food. He was friendly, energetic, humble and just an all around great server. You have to show appreciation for people who go above and beyond for there job and he is one of them. Ohh yea my food was star to good lookin out to the cooks lol
Good .. just needs a little change on the salsa it's not the same as before.
Pascual was my server and he was very good. The servers here work as a tag team, very professional.
I have gone to this restaurant a couple of times over the last decade or so. Very authentic, never disappoints. Whenever I go to a Mexican restaurant I usually get a plate with an enchilada and a taco, and the rice and beans. After that, I could try other stuff. But, this is really the mark for me to see if it's authentic or not. This place is definitely authentic. Great service, quiet enough to have a conversation with the people at your table but enough music so that other people aren't listening into what you say. Bathrooms are clean, and even on a busy night you can find seating pretty quick. Next time I am out that way I am definitely going. Keep up the Great work!
Great service and the atmosphere is as expected in place like Gamino. The food has large portions, a little bland for my taste. I wouldn't run back to Gamino but its not bad for place to have a birthday diner of company Christmas party.
Came here last night to celebrate my dad’s birthday. The food is always amazing here, but what really did it for me was our server, Chapo! He was simply amazing, he was the most attentive and kindest person. I would go back just for him to serve me again.
