    This is one of our go to restaurants. I stepped out of my comfort zone and had lasagna instead of chicken Parmesan. It was delicious. The bread is always so good. We always start with a salad. Restaurant is always so good with changes. We even bought gift cards while we were there because we know we’ll return And other people should experience too.  we had a new server tonight, Brooke. She was wonderful.

    I had the Special, pasta with shrimp in a butter lemon garlic sauce. Shrimp cooked perfectly. The Holiday Peppermint-Espresso Martini was very very good. Great service from Allie our server. Friendly, efficient and professional.

    I always have a wonderful experience at Gaetanos. My parents came in from Las Vegas and I took them there for lunch, they were extremely pleased with food. ❤️

    Trish greeted us and she is really a sweet and inviting person wanting you to come and enjoy this restaurant. We had Damon as our server and he was outstanding. The food was delicious plus it was Wednesday and we got to get free corkage that always helps. I really enjoyed my night last night and will definitely be back very soon.

    The lasagna and spaghetti are always great options! The best lasagna I've ever had. Tonight I made the mistake of ordering the salmon salad. The salmon was good but the salad was nothing more than greens almonds and tomatoes. They could have done so much more with that salad! Anthony was our server and he was totally awesome. We love this place don't get us wrong the salad may have disappointed but everything else has been fantastic so far.
