This restaurant/cafe is near my office, so I have been there quite a few times since the first visit, so it is time to adjust my expression about this place. They need to elevate their food quality; otherwise, it's worse to try, let alone the "PRICE." ( I'll refer you to my latest picture of their frise, witch almost burned & not crispy & highly likely not fresh ) ------------ 3 years ago ------------ I'll give the restaurant/cafe 5 stars, in general, not only because of their delicious food but also because of their attitude & customer service. _ I ordered fish from one of their meals of the day, yet it didn't go with my taste. (Nothing wrong with the food, just not my type) So, I asked for a different dish (to be added to my bill, of course), but they generously replaced my plate with fried veal & stuffed cheese, which was amazingly tasty. I would recommend this cafe; moreover, check it out, as it is marked as my weekly lunch spot.
I've been ordering & going to Gentile for years... & its always been hit or miss... this time was a miss sadly... we were 3 for lunch. Vibe was good... busy ...waitress was nice. Poured us water... first thing was a dead fly/fruit fly in my friends water... rough start. Fuggeaboutit was pretty dry. Sauces couldn't quite save it. Sausage & coleslaw sandwich was very good. Other friend hand the Portuguese style chicken sandwich... said it was decent. Sexy fries were a little undercooked... but not too bad... it just became a little much when ants were crawling on our table.. ice tea was great though... had the 2.0 with the mint... there was also some dead bugs in the light fixtures... was pretty off putting ... again... ive had good & bad experiences here before... was unfortunately not up to par this time
I came here with my family for sandwiches one afternoon. I had heard great things about this place & was not disappointed. I ordered the fuggetaboutit & I enjoyed the flavors. The fries, which come separate, were pretty standard. While the sandwich was good, I didn't think it was one of the best sandwiches in the city. I also felt the menu was a bit limited, so I'm not sure I need to come back as I got to try the dish that I wanted. Overall I'm happy to have tried it, but not exactly worthy of a second visit.
I highly recommend Cafe Gentile to anyone seeking not only delectable cuisine but also a top-notch dining experience, thanks to the service delivered by Olivia. From the moment we were seated, Olivia welcomed us with a warm & genuine smile, setting a positive tone for the entire meal. She effortlessly guided us through the diverse offerings, making excellent recommendations based on our preferences. Not only did Olivia excel in her service, but she also added a personal touch to our dining experience. She engaged in friendly conversation, creating a welcoming & comfortable atmosphere. I highly recommend Cafe Gentile to anyone seeking not only delectable cuisine but also a top-notch dining experience, thanks to the impeccable service delivered by Olivia.
First time dining at Cafe Gentile. The service was absolutely impeccable. Our waiter was patient & friendly. He made fabulous suggestions for our meal. The atmosphere was ambient & very comfortable. Everyone who came to our table was respectful & professional. The food was absolutely amazing. Highly recommend. Will definitely return!
Although only open for a few years, the trendy Italian bistro has the feel of a local institution. Nominally a café during the day (serving all manners of Italian coffees), it turns into a happening & bustling restaurant in the evening, populated by both young & old. The menu is innovative & the food is very tasty but it is all on the pricier side considering its mostly pasta. Specially call out to DANNY our server...who was friendly, informative; always available but never in your face. Enjoy!
Not bad, but not worth it. I did not like my pesto pasta. The portions were quite small. & the prices were high. Our server was nice & very attentive. Service was a little slow on the side of the food. I would recommend for a casual dinner but nothing to write home about. My friend had the lamb ragu pasta, she did not like it either. The pasta was too salty & too acidic. The lamb was tough. Lastly, there were a lot of flies & fruit flies in our area, it was not a nice sight.
