Here We Go:   Gino's is a definite place for go-to Italian food.  My only gripe is that they changed the bolognese sauce awhile ago and now it tastes like it has less of the traditional flavor and more fennel or anise (it tastes like it has hints of black licorice).  Other than that, the portions are big, the pizza is greasy and the eggplant parmesan knows me by name.  Parking can be pretty discouraging if you can't find a spot in the back lot or right out front on the street.  Still, the food is worth circling until a spot opens up, which I've done several times.  Come casual and wear some loose clothing - you'll thank me later.

Feast Your Eyes:
