Gino's Italiano, Kearney MO

Great food! Huge portions. We took a lot home. You definitely need to go there. Each of us had a dinner entree, salad and glass of wine. Very reasonably priced.

I absolutely adore this place. The food is delicious and the staff is amazing. Shawna (Shauna) ? Is such a wonderful server. Every time we have been in, she has been so friendly and kind. I have ordered many different things from the menu and NEVER been disappointed. I do miss Gino helping the staff and singing along with the music, however, the new owners have nailed the food!

We chose to try Gino's today with our family and here are the results from that experience both good and bad. The good. The restaurant felt clean. The staff was very nice during our visit, upon entering and when leaving.

The bad. First this could be a personal preference for everyone so may not fall I'm the bad for you, but should be known. The restaurant was freezing. The vents for the lobby are under the tables, se we had a vent blowing straight up our legs from under the table. We eventually covered this vent with a bag, and we're much more comfortable the rest of the visit.

Second the food. My kids both enjoyed thier dishes (Cajun chicken alfredo one had chicken one didnt even though its in the name on the menu you have to ask for the chicken to be added), as well as my grandson (kids spaghetti and meatballs), my wife and myself have dietary restrictions and we both order Chicken Alfredo over Broccoli, instead of noodles. Unfortunately our dishes were not good. To say they were luke warm, would be being generous. The Alfredo sauce is so thin at this restaurant, our dishes were more like soup. Sauce makes or breaks Italian food, and in my opinion thiers was not good. The Broccoli was raw, like salad Broccoli with our chicken Alfredo just poured over it, I would think cooked a little would have been an obvious ask. My chicken in my bowl was burned, giving a bad taste to the whole dish. I ate a little over half because I was starving and would eat about anything. My wife took two bites and said this is not edible and pushed it away. Our server asked if we wanted Togo containers, we said no we would not be taking it, it was not good. Not another question was asked except is this one check or two. They applied a discount to my wife and I's meal, without us asking, but never said a word. I myself own a restaurant and know that not all things hit on all cylinders all the time, and today was one of those days for them, but I also for one want to talk to any customer that I am discounting thier food before they leave to see what went wrong and if I can do anything more, and I would never charge anyone for a dish it was obvious they didn't care for.

Waitress was great. You get plenty of food but it was kinda bland. The first thing I tried to order they didn't have any and so I was really disappointed when I had to order something else. Took the leftovers with me but just couldn't make myself eat it again.

Ordered to go. Pork tenderloin sandwich. Was delicious. Could Cut it with a fork. Light and crispy

My sis and I visited Kearney for the 1st time Saturday and decided to stop in for lunch. We shared the appetizer platter and it was delicious. Very friendly and accommodating staff. Highly recommend!

Food was good, but service was very slow. They were out of Tiramisu, but the Crème Brûlée was a great substitute.

Food was literally cooked to perfection! Excellent service, great atmosphere and all the employees are super friendly and helpful Will be returning and will be letting my friends know how well I was treated there! Thank you guys:)

Delicious pasta! The staff was very friendly and nice, the food took quite a while to get there. It was worth the wait, I just don't advise going in a hurry.

The food was really good. My husband said they were some of the best meatballs he'd ever had. The sauce to pasta ratio was off but it's always better to have too much sauce than not enough. Recommend the thin crust pizza. We'll go back

Had dinner 2/3. Portions were small, extra chicken was $4 and it was approximately 6-10 tiny cubes. My pasta broccoli was so watery I couldn't even eat it, sent it back. Sorry to say but we will not return. The previous owners food was way better. Sorry!

We carried out, but the food is delicious and top notch next to traveling to Italy for lunch. Very clean place and very nice staff.

Went here for a birthday dinner! The staff were so great and friendly. Our waitress was quick with the salads, appetizers and drink refills. I got the chicken spiedini. It was supposed to be a little spicy but more sweet than anything. If it were spicier it would have been out of this world.
Will defiantly be back again. They have an excellent menu with plenty of choices. Will give other options to try as well

Enjoyed the diner style seating. Such wonderful smells as soon as you enter. The Italian bread was warm. With perfect crust. Had to dip it in the epically delicious Cajun chicken Parmigiano sauce. The sauce heat was subtle, and chicken mouth watering. Our breaded cauliflower had a nice flavored crisp outside. Perfectly cooked inside. There eggplant Parmigiano seemed to literally melt in your mouth! We were so full and pleased. Butt.had to try the Xanadeo (minus chocolate). This was the dreamy cheesecake in crisp pastery. The raspberry sauce, banana, and pastry mix was dreamy! Like a babansplit but WAY better. I suggest this as a MUST TRY stop. We will defiantly be back. Clean friendly place.

Easy 5 star. Food was well balanced. Had the Diablo pasta. Perfect spice and meat portions. Daughter had the special which was cod. I’m not a fish person but I would easily order that dish. Highly recommend this jewel.

Waited quite a while to be seated and they weren't busy. Food was ok, but nothing really stood out.
