Gino's Italian Restaurant

We have driven by Gino's often since buying our Galveston home six years ago, but never gave it a try. We finally stopped in for dinner last night. \t\n\t\nThe restaurant is casual and cozy. The customers seemed to be a mix of touists and locals. The service is ok, mainly young folks who don't seem very experienced. There is a bit of a wait for dinner, but it is well worth it. The house salad was pretty typical lettuce with a tasty garlicky dressing. Our pasta were fantastic with a wonderful homemade sauce. He enjoyed spaghetti and sausage. I had an abundant portion of eggplant parmesian which was thin and breaded just the way I like. We will definitely be back to dine in or takeout. \t\n\t\nThe only drawback -- constant phones ringing during our meal between the estabslishment phone for take out orders and the patrons cell phones with various intrusiive ringtones. Come on , people! Vibrate mode, please. \t\n\t\nBottom line: forget about the service -- go for the sauce.
