Everything was perfect steak & chicken sandwich excellent. The only little minor issue is the menu, the prices on the menu & the price that is charged is about $3.00 more per item.

I like the place for the vibe & the service. The food & coffee not so much. I ordered a grilled cheese sandwich that they were happy to customize (+++ service) - it was okay - basic - could be improved by using better cheese - something less processed.
I ordered a cappuccino & was a bit disappointed- i couldn't taste the coffee - i think the milk to coffee ratio could be improved.

That said- I appreciated the speedy service & the good vibes this place has to offer.

I had an amazing 10/10 experience at Café Gentile! The place is incredibly cozy, & the service was top-notch, the waiter gave me some fantastic suggestions that really blew me away. Everything I tried was delicious, from the STK wrap & Linguini to the must-try Zeppoli. I finished it all off with a perfect cappuccino. If you're looking for a delicious meal in a great setting, I highly encourage everyone to try the food here, it's amazing!
