" I’ve been coming to Gaetano's since I was a child, and it has always been a family favorite. The food is consistently tasty, and the service is friendly. They really know how to treat their customers well, making every visit a joy! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was really looking forward to my visit, but it turned out to be underwhelming. The spaghetti tasted like it came from a can and my meatballs were too dry. The service was acceptable, but it didn't save the meal. I was disappointed since I've heard such good things. Not sure if I'll give it another chance. " (*Curated Review*)

" The food here is delicious and has that authentic Italian vibe. I took my family for dinner, and we enjoyed every dish. The bruschetta was fresh, and the marinara sauce was rich and flavorful. The service could improve, though, as we had to remind our server of our order twice. The restaurant ambiance was warm and inviting, perfect for a family dinner. " (*Curated Review*)

" The food here is absolutely delicious, but my last visit was marred by poor service. I had to wait a long time for my order, and the server forgot to bring my drink. Still, I would recommend the food to anyone because it's just that good! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been to Gaetano's multiple times and it never fails to impress! The ravioli was very authentic, and every time I go, I find something new to enjoy. The staff is incredibly friendly, always making me feel welcome. Great place for family gatherings or simply enjoying a meal with friends. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're looking for real Italian cuisine, Gaetano's is the place for you! From the moment I stepped in, I felt like I was transported to Italy. The fettuccine was divine, and the garlic bread had just the right amount of seasoning. Our server was knowledgeable and helped us with our selections. Don’t skip the tiramisu for dessert—it’s a must! " (*Curated Review*)

" This is the perfect Italian restaurant! The food is delicious and the atmosphere is inviting. I loved their breadsticks—so fresh! The only drawback was the wait time for a table on weekends. I can see why it's so popular! " (*Curated Review*)
