Gina's by the Sea

Gina's by the Sea Review

Some places are less than the sum of their parts; Gina's is more. This funky old building is tucked into a sand dune, so that the aroma of fine northern Italian cooking blends with a fresh breeze off the bay. The dining room is tasteful, cozy, and especially wonderful in fall when the fireplace is blazing. Blackboard specials could include angel-hair pasta or linguine with clams. If you don't want a long wait, come early or late. An enthusiastic staff rounds out the experience.

    The host was so rude we didn't make it past the desk. He is also the owner. We did as Fodor's recommends and went to see the beach. We came back 45 minutes into a 45 minute to 1 hour wait. We had missed our name being called and Larry the owner/host had clearly been inconvenienced by our absence. We did not ask to be seated next, but he would not tell us how much longer the wait would be. He was yelling at us saying that "He does not hold tables!". Ok when we checked in we told him we were walking down to the beach. He never said not to, and just said "Ok". When we came back he seemed like a different person. He stepped very close to my boyfriend at one point during his rant and shook his finger at him. I at that point said "Ok I think we are leaving." We then left and went to the Scargo Cafe up the road and had a wonderful dinner. Don't waste your valuable vacation time at Gina's. The host there has no problem ruining your night. Gina's is a tourist trap they only care about volume.
