Gina's By The Sea

First time here with family and kids so HAVE to go early. Karen our waitress was outstanding. Food especially the filet and salmon were outstanding. Not cheap eats but place gets packed as has a good reputation. Cars lined up. If not here by 5pm you will be waiting awhile. Highly recommend trying, think you will feel the same as us.

Gina's by the sea is a no frills Italian restaurant . The dacor is traditional Cape Cod knotty pine. Good food at a reasonable price. The restaurant is located in a residential neighborhood close to the beach and most of the patrons walk there. It is crazy busy & loud during the season and the parking lot is normally full. If you are looking for ambience & upscale dacor, this is not the place for you.

Absolutely fantastic experience all the way around. Super friendly place. with great service and tasteful food. We pulled into a packed parking lot and had no idea what to do. We were greeted by a gentleman, that let us know he would park our car... no ticket, no list... just handed my car over and hoped I would get it back. He sensed I was a bit nervous and reassured me he had never lost a car in 30 years... We proceeded inside to the again packed bar and again had no idea what to do, stood there for a moment and then we were greeted by non other than the owner asking what he could do for us... I said 2 for dinner with whatever he had. Very good then, he said, asked me for my name and said it would most likely be about an hour. Again, no lists... I thought this should be interesting. We proceeded to find a seat in the bar, and get a couple of drinks thinking we would be there for a while. The pours for both the red wine and the bourbon were to the rim! Very generous from the friendly lady behind the bar. No more than we had just struck up an enjoyable conversation with total strangers did the owner return and address me by name to say he had a table for us. Wow, that was not an hour, and was taking us to a fantastic table outside! Alice was our delightful server answered all our questions and took great care of us through the entirety of our meal. Even took the time to answer who Gina was! The food was delicious, enjoyable and authentic, well prepared and paced to fit our time! The owner swung back by our table and addressed me again by my name... never have I felt so at home at a restaurant! Then get this... We walked out to hopefully pick up our car, only to find it had already been pulled up to the most convenient parking spot for us to get in and head on our way. The gentleman knew who I was. He knew what car was mine, and had the door open. Incredible. He had to be shuffling cars all night. What a memory! What a service! Top 5 all round dining experiences in all my years!
