Wonderful service, food, and value overall. A homey feel with great Italian fresh food. Highly recommend the pastas, fish, and DESSERT is a must! The napoleon is out of this world! Thank you for a great dinner. We look forward to coming back again soon.

Food was delicious! Manny is the BEST

Thoroughly enjoyed dinner with friends. Will definitely returned next year when we are in town. The artichokes were superb and the prosciutto with figs yummy. The chicken dish was thoroughly enjoyed based on the recommendation of our waitress. The napoleon was out of this world. Everyone enjoyed their meals.

Wonderful meal and service. Outside is very pleasant

Excellent dining experience. Wait staff were attentive, but not overbearing. They were willing to recreate a 'special' entree that was on the menu the previous evening when we could not make it. Food was well-prepared and presented. The highlights were a lightly battered and stuffed zucchini flower appetizer and a Napoleon for dessert that was assembled right before serving which kept the pastry very crisp and the luscious cream very fresh.

Service was ok but not that attentive Entree of swordfish special was not up to the restaurant’s normal standards… disappointing… Alas & pasta was good however…

Great food. Great service. Manny is the best - he takes great care of us!

The food was delicious! It’s even better than I anticipated! Can’t wait to go back!

Superb in every way, as always. We were a party of seven. We had three courses, all different orders and everyone was delighted by the food, service and the ambience.

First time at La Ginestra and everything was wonderful. Beautiful outside seating. The food was delicious and service was great. Can’t wait to return.
