Rating is for Pizza delivered only, did not dine in/pickup Ordered a large Gino's Special. all ingredients appeared to be fresh, the pizza tastes great Reduced 1 star based on: When the pizza arrived, the box did not have a sticker seal on it...ensuring that no one open and tampers with the food...something to consider Pizza also arrived very soggy, we put it in the toast oven for a few minutes before enjoying

Great presentation of food and good portion for the price. We ordered several different dishes including chicken souvlaki, beef souvlaki, roast lamb, Greek salad, and calamari. Each main dish came with Greek salad, a potato, and pita bread. Everything was very flavourful. One disappointing aspect with the roast lamb. The piece was very small and it had some sort of sauce poured over it. Another complaint was that there was too much raw red onion in the Greek salad. Overall, it was a good meal with plenty of table space on a Friday evening at 7 pm.

I heard good things from a friend but wasn't expecting dawn of the dead. I wasn't impressed, no love in the food despite the expedited service.. Staff weren't really fun or friendly which is Vancouver standard (chatting at the bar the whole time). Its a great place if you're a boomer and just waiting to pass the time until you venture on into the afterlife. I would recommend the bar just down the street instead. Much more lively.

Mixed review. I usually enjoy my food at Gino's and I did tonight too, that's not why I am giving them 1 star. Unfortunately, I found a small nail in my rice and was kind to the server about it and didn't make it a big deal ( though maybe I should have? no one should expect a metal nail in their rice). I was surprised that when I suggested that maybe something in the back had fallen a part, maybe a pot or a knife, cooking equipment, not sure, but just so they could look out for it for safety reasons. The server we had just brushed it off by saying "no we don't have anything like that". Odd. She didn't even apologize for it either, which I found kind of distasteful. That's why the 1 star. Usually when things like that happen they would apologize or comp the meal or offer a discount. I recieved none of the above which is disappointing, as I come here with my family often and do enjoy dining here. But I'm left with a sour taste in my mouth after this experience and just saddened that at the very least they couldn't have said sorry for the inconvenience. Which I don't think is much to ask for. (Edited because everyone I've talked to is telling me I should give them one star, because if I ate it I could have been seriously injured and the response wasn't adequate to the seriousness of it all)

I always look forward to a meal at Gino's and anyone I recommend it to has been happy they went. They have dine in and drink specials almost every day of the week and makes it easier on the wallet! The food is consistently good. Always fresh, good quality and tasty. My favorite is the baked lasagna but if you like thicker crust pizza with lots of toppings you won't go wrong. Atmosphere is low key and on the plain side but clean and comfortable and always room available. Service is fast and always super friendly.

The Missus and I had passed Gino's many times over the years and now have visited 3 times. We have found the food to be above average for the price paid. The Missus really enjoyed her roast lamb on the Thursday night special while I liked the baked lasagne. However, we found the service to be very inconsistent. On the third visit, we had the best service. On the first visit, we felt rushed and the server never asked us for drinks or dessert. Then on the second visit, the server neglected our pizza order (even though the restaurant was not busy) while we had finished our other dishes. We had the pizza as a take away. As with other reviewers, we also did have a few pesky fruit flies as our dinner guests.

I tried the roast lamb and calamari here. The roast lamb was very tender and had great flavor. The calamari had a nice texture and was plenty seasoned. Both plates were a good portion size. Prices were very reasonable and service was good. The restaurant had a nice local community vibe. I would definitely come back to try out other menu options.

Nice time here last night. Enjoyed the food very much and the servers were really friendly. We had the kalamari as well as the scallops and bacon appetizer. Both were great. Kalamari had a nice crunchy batter and soft squid. Scallop was very tender. Had the roast lamb dinner and can't really go wrong with this item. Fall-off-the-bone lamb that's also still very juicy and packed with flavor. Their tzatziki sauce is great too along with the pita bread. Nice time here overall and would come back in the future.

Top notch service and the daily special offers (Greek night on Thursday, especially) can t be beat. Parking: E. Columbia is tricky for parking. There s paid street parking right out front, or a paid lot across the street. If you can luck out and find a non-permit side street, those can be free.

5 stars for the pizza which is the only thing we have tried so far. It was fantastic. A style and quality that we have been searching high and low for in North Surrey. Happy to have landed here at Gino s for a nice soft yet crispy crust, nice sauce and lots of toppings on our pizzas.

I havent ordered in awhile. I havent had the best customer service here either but they always make it right. Tonight I ordered to be delivered. I got pizza and it wasnt the right pizza and its always cold. I even told person more then one time which pizza I wanted. I call to tell them they sent me wrong pizza so they tell me theyll send the right one. Great it, nooooo it arrives and its cold, of course. But also it looks like they missed about 1/3 of toppings on one side and its burnt. I threw it the garbage. I even told them please dont burn pizza in original request too. Like do I have even say that on the normal? Not happy. Not sure Ill order anymore from Ginos. They just cant get it right. Small 2 topping pizza delivered $22.65. I posted a picture of the crap I was sent. I called them about 2nd burnt pizza they didnt know how to give me debit a credit card so I got a credit. Ugh!

May 22, 2024

The food is great! The service is poor despite the great waitstaff. From what I can tell over several visits they are understaffed, leading to notably poor service. As an example my water was not refilled, and they had forgotten to fulfil my drink order. I had voiced I wanted to keep the menu in case I wanted to order more, and I did, but the lack of follow up from staff lead to a lost sale.

I ordered a roast lamb delivery and it smelt and tasted like fish. There was a puddle of water that smelt like fish with the lamb roast. Definitely wasnt roasted...

My daughter and I use to come to Ginos quite often just for the spinach pie. The filo pastry was light, fluffy and had so many layers to it, it was packed with spinach and so delicious. We moved away and hadnt been there for awhile, we decided to drop in while in the area for a treat. We were both very disappointed with the pie. It was so small, the filo pastry if I had to guess was bought instead of made in house, hardly any spinach in it. Definitely wont be buying that again.

Service was beyond poor, we are seating outside and the tables outside on their patio had ants. Our waitress took forever to even come greet us. When she arrived and took our drink order, and appies. It took 15mins for our drinks and maybe another 10mins for appies. After that she never came back to even check up on us at all. We finished our appies and waited another 15mins and than my hubby went in and paid our bill. Never again will we be ordering from here as our experience dining was disappointing.

Finally got to checkout Gino s and had dinner from their dine out Vancouver menu. The service was prompt, the food was made fresh and just delicious. The portion size is really good and enjoyed our meals so much. The place is a bit busy but the service was on spot. The pita seemed fresh from the oven and hummus, tzatziki were just yum! Chicken souvlaki and roast lamb tasted perfect, the rice pilaf and potato were equally good. Highly recommend checking this place out. Will definitely be going back again.

Very disappointed in the food and service. There was a small piece of plastic found in one of the dishes that got dismissed without an apology. It is understandable that mistakes happen but not to address them at all is disrespectful. It was my first time visiting this restaurant. Perhaps it was a busy night due to dineout so I hope this was just a rare occasion. This is a very harsh review but I just want to share my honest opinion.

The chicken souvlaki had dry, overcooked chicken, mushy overcooked rice and the lemon potatoes had no lemon flavor. The pesto fettuccine had barely a hint of pesto. Ive had Greek food that was a million times better at the food court.

Good amount of food, regular taste, busy and famous, but nothing exceptional. We tried the calamari (disappoints), not crunchy and with raw onions, chicken souvlaki (similar to opa) but double priced, and opa s rice and pita are better, chicken tender ( not good as cactus). Other Greek nearby like Greek tavern have more options with the same price and tasty.

My family was in town and we ordered dinner here through Uber eats. When the order arrived, it was missing most of the dishes.

Gino s is amazing! It has got it all. The calamari was served as it should be, lightly crisp, tender, with traditional red onion and tzatziki sauce. So hard to fine anymore because so many restaurants want to change it up. Watching the 4 women running the front of the house, which was 3/4 full on a Thursday night, smoothly efficient, while remaining friendly and not rushing the customers was a joy to observe. Our server Joanne was phenomenal, getting our order ( a little more complicated than the norm) spot on the first time. She was so quick with great, friendly service. You could tell that she loved working there, voicing her appreciation for the many regulars and for the employer who treats the staff like family. ( in a good way lol) We are only in town for one more night and will return for dinner tonight!

Lovely restaurant, very friendly and accommodating to our toddlers. The food was excellent, especially the Sunday roast. Dietary restrictions: One of our party had a large number of dietary restrictions and the staff were more than happy to adapt the dishes to allow for this. Kid-friendliness: While the layout is not designed for small children, the staff were very accommodating and not at all phased by our two toddlers. Even the other customers were friendly to the kids, making for a lovely family atmosphere.

This Little Gem has been here for 51 years! And I am sorry to say this is our first visit! In fact, we were invited to try this place by the Head Server at the Rivers Reach Pub in New West...! (Because she also works here!) Lexi... You are one of The Best! The Most Professional, Friendliest server we have ever met! Now, to the food . . .Kalamari is right at the TOP of our list for Best in Greater Vancouver . . . and the Chicken Souvlaki rivals our all-time favourite Greek place: X-site in N. Burnaby! (see other review) Lexi gave us a Special Dessert that was not on the menu (the benefit of being invited by the most senior, Long-Time Server). Should have taken a photo! Next time... AND, there WILL be MANY more visits... This place it GREAT ! Parking: Depends on the time of day . . . We were here on the BC Day holiday, so parked right in front of the restaurant! But, since it is on Columbia St. in Sapperton traffic can be a real problem.

The pasta here is excellent. The staff is incredibly friendly and warm. Dated decor but the food and prices are good. My only complaint (and I ve been going here years) is the place has a major fruit fly problem. Can t order a glass of red wine as you will be battling them all night. My advice: mason jar half filled with apple cider vinegar and a drop of dish soap, put it somewhere out of sight (mine at home is behind a tall vase) and top it off regularly. Fruit flies will be gone

Went in to Gino s for thanksgiving dinner last night with my family . We arrived at 7:30 pm and was told there might be no turkey left. Erin went out of her way to check every single pan to make sure we got some turkey and it was delicious !! Thank you so much Erin and Gino s for another fantastic dinner. We thoroughly enjoy the food here every time. My mother also loved her roast lamb. She has trouble chewing harder meats and she said it was SO soft. Love you guys. Also, If you like sangria , order Erin s red sangria. Best. Xoxo happy thanksgiving Gino s and I ll be back soon.

I lived in New Westminster years ago and visit my family regularly. A stop to Gino s is a most memorable experience and it hasn t changed from when I used to go there with friends back in the early 80s. Tonight I had the usual for me which is lasagna. It tasted exactly as when I had dinner with friends back as early as 1980. The service was good and Sydney the server provided excellent service. As always, I will be back!!

Didnt have high expectations when we came here, but the restaurant barely met those expectations. The restaurant itself is just a bit gross. The table was sticky. There were 3-4 fruit flies buzzing around our table the entire dinner. They gave me a diet soda when I asked for a regular coke. The fish and chips themselves were decent. But the house salad came right out of a supermarket clamshell that had been reduced to sell. Just sad wilted veggies. The brussel sprouts and carrots that came with the meal were obviously previously frozen. And tasted freezer burnt. Wont be coming back here.

The price is reasonable. The pasta Fettuccine tastes a bit bland, so it s suitable for people who like something light. The Prime Rib meat is good but a bit overcooked. I usually eat three-quarters, but this is at least over medium-cooked. The Caesar salad is pretty good. I ll probably order it again. Come back and will try the lamb chops next time.

Ive been looking for a local restaurant that makes a decent baked lasagna, and this place was excellent! It was ready when I got there, and was still hot and fresh 30 minutes later when I started eating it at home. The lasagna was a perfect balance of meat, sauce and noodles, with a generous portion of delicious baked cheese on top. It also came with garlic bread which was surprisingly good and still warm! It was crispy in the outside and soft and tasty on the inside. The bill came to exactly $16, which is a lot less than many local competitors. I highly recommend this place for baked lasagna.
