I am one of the lucky ones and only live a block away from Ginos. Not only is their plain ole' cheese pie the best I've EVER had, their dinner menu serves some of the most delicious dishes in Brooklyn. A jewel amoung other nearby restaurants. If you haven't been here yet, you are missing out!
Gino's was a family staple. Until they got rid of the Ansel Adams prints and atmospheric booths and tables and replaced them with blonde wood furniture and watercolors.
As always the food is excellent and well priced, but the atmosphere is more SoHo sheik than Brooklyn-Itallian. I miss the rich colors, the dramatic prints and the down home family atmosphere that was the hallmark of the original Gino's Itallian Resturant. It has gone from a down-home family eatery to a wannabe upscale establishment. In the process it is losing its customer base.
Great Food and Location: the food was wonderful and perfectly priced, not too expensive as a lot of other Italian restaurants in that area are. The waiters were also very nice and knew a lot about how any particular dish was made and gave you their honest opinions as to what was good and what wasn't. Definitely a Bay Ridge staple. Must try at least once.
