ALWAYS a FABULOUS experience at Gaetanos! The seasonal specialty drinks were AMAZING! The peppermint espresso martini hit the spot! Chicken parmesan was delicious and the skirt steak was on point. Don’t forget to order the meatball appetizer they are brilliantly served on a bed of ricotta cheese!

The chef Alex was great at Preparing each guests selection. Just the right amount accompaniment of vegetables and seasonings especially the garlic butter. The meat was vey very tender and delicious 🤤 Thank you Alex you really delivered, as always.

We brought two new guests with us and they enjoyed the atmosphere. Busy but not too loud. The chicken salad was a favorite. Our waitress was excellent. The food came out quickly from the kitchen.

Suggestions: Great Cesare salad. I love the linguine con vongole. Also try the octopus appetizer. Don’t waste your money on the cannolis for dessert, try the orange cake!

Great AYCE deals for seniors over 60+ of age. Very good service, food was out very quickly when requested.
