We dined at Da Gino's to celebrate the birthday of an in-law. We all agreed that the night couldn't have gone any better. The welcome, the service, the food and drink - all were exceptional. If you want to eat great food, in a lovely warm setting, served by great people, you won't go wrong by dining here.

Gino’s is a lovely decorated restaurant. We went on a Wednesday evening & it was nice & quiet. They have an extensive menu & an impressive “ specials “. Our waitress ( Eleanor/Helena sorry I’ve forgotten) was exceptional. She was friendly/ knowledgeable/not pushy /polite . She’s a real asset. I had pâté to start which was tasteless. They really need to provide better as I’m sure many people like a good pâté. From the specials I had the half roast duck in orange sauce. Cooked to perfection & delicious. My husband had chicken livers to start & Dover Sole for mains . He said both were 5 star. I’m not a pudding person but we had a lemon tart with ice cream which was light & tasty.

Another excellent meal last night at Da Gino’s. We are regular visitors and the food and general experience is always first class. The well trained, friendly staff, the immaculate table linen and the superb menu make it one of our favourite night’s out. We’ll be returning soon. Martin &Denise

I have been to this restaurant the last 3 years for Christmas Day lunch it was my Grandads wish before he passed away as his birthday is on Christmas Day. Although the restaurant is very busy the staff are lovely and really look after us all especially as half my family are gluten free including myself. Christmas wouldn't be the same without coming here can't recommend it enough. My Grandma who lives close is a frequent visitor.. the restaurant means a lot to us. Thank you for all that you do.

All of our meals were bland or cooked incorrectly. The lasagne had absolutely no flavour, and wasn’t even offered parmesan or pepper for any of the pasta dishes. The steak and chicken were cooked from frozen and the sauce for the chicken had burnt garlic. The owner argued that the food was cooked correctly and would mutter things under his breath as he walked off. Gino was very rude to us. The only positive is that the place is well presented. Overall an awful experience.

I don't write many reviews, but my partner advised me, this morning, that there had been negative (to say the least) reviews posted on Facebook about Da Gino's, which I feel incumbent to refute. In the strongest possible (legal) terms. We go at least every two weeks, for lunch or dinner, &, especially, at Christmas, New Year, Easter, but also for birthdays, anniversary's, treating friends, etc. Our only regret is that the restaurant closes for three weeks in the summer! The food is as authentic Italian as possible in England, especially as Gino sources all his ingredients himself. The Bolognese Ragu is exceptional, being soft & meaty, I suspect, made with both beef & veal (or pork) although a slight reservation is that it should be served with tagliatelle, not spaghetti - but then he is catering to our "British" ignorance. The Sunday roasts are excellent, as are the roast potatoes, often served with the best tasting carrots ever (& I hate cooked carrots). My own favourite is the saltimbocca, but the sea bream is also excellent, if you like fish. Thank goodness there is not a pizza in sight!! Finally, the wine list is both comprehensive and relatively inexpensive. The staff, as well as Gino himself, are warm & welcoming, & include Anna (his wife) & Elena, as well as, occasionally Anna's very sweet cousin. We often finish our drinks in the reception area, before our taxi arrives, & without exception every (who must be) regular guests, hugs & kisses the staff before they leave. So, ignore the Facebook rubbish & enjoy this wonderful gem of a restaurant in Streetly Village. Believe me, you won't be disappointed. Salute John

To the manager,if you read this you are very rude and you would benefit from some training in customer service you have a condescending nature about yourself.You really don’t give off pleasant vibes. You were very dismissive of a friend of mine who has a food intolerance.Shame on you. Oh,and if you insist on talking about your customers to other members of staff be sure they can’t hear you because on this occasion we did hear you.Shame on you Please don’t waste your money on visiting this restaurant spend your money else where .The Butlers Arms four oaks serves much better food and the service is much better. Shame on you Ginos .

What dreadful staff that really didn’t seem happy in their work. This is absolutely my one and only visit. Clearly staff have some favourite customers but we definitely were not… -Expected to order whilst in a waiting area (sat in there for half hour..) next to the door opening and closing. - refused to be given tap water (even thought we had also ordered 6 drinks too. Would only allow us to have bottled water (not great for the environment) - restaurant was very cold and we had an unpleasant draft from the air conditioner, when we tried to bring it to the staffs attention they were very very rude (overheard them talking about us not being dressed for the cold weather!!) if I had known I would have worn my skiing gear. - really didn’t want to engage with their customers that were gluten intolerant. They were very dismissive and disrespectful to them. - last straw we when asked for a receipt, aggressively told we couldn’t have one but could take a photograph of the transaction. Food okay but nothing special especially for the price.

A pleasant mid-week lunch in this very pretty (but rather cold) restaurant. Lunchtime menu is fine, but it would be nice if it was available on the website. I particularly enjoyed the meatballs and the pork medallions main was good. Others enjoyed the seabass.

We wanted to see al a carte menu as one of our party only wanted a main and one a starter We were told we could have the lunch menu and that was. All One of our party said she didn’t want anything then she’d had a coffee and he rudely said. If you just want coffee go to a coffee shop Two of us ended up having lunch menu and. Said friend had other friends starter He was i ncreditably rude she offered to leave I wish we had I could see his view but there was no need to be rude they still made money out of us No offer of wine or water What food we had was nice. But would not go back He was mouthing off in Italian as we left what a truly offensive man Rudest staff I’ve ever come across

We have visited this restaurant many times and the last 2 visits have been somewhat Luke warm in terms of the experience. We visited last night to celebrate our wedding anniversary and were met with a 'maitre de' / owner who clearly got out of the bed the wrong side. The Luke warm reception started with a blunt refusal to provide an additional plate of bread ???...a manner that suggested that he didn't like me and would prefer it if we left as quickly as we could !...(maybe that's why he wouldn't provide the bread). All in all - a disappointing experience and 'sadly' we will be looking for some where that offers a much better experience going forward.

We were a bit worried when we got there at 6.30pm and no other tables were occupied. However by the time we left at 8 it was pretty much full, which on a Wednesday night is quite an achievement. Friendly staff and attentive. Nice to be served by Italian staff in an Italian restaurant! We were not particularly tempted by the starters as didn’t seem that authentic and not that hungry. The most tempted we were was by the specials menu which was only verbally relayed. A written specials menu would be better. Our choices for main were classic I guess. Lasagne, carbonara and daughter had steak in a sauce. All freshly made and excellent quality. I did feel the lasagne and carbonara at £16 pp were highly priced ( no salad or accompaniment) and I think more than Romantica which is our usual go to Italian. Drinks nice but rose in my opinion should be colder. More choice of beers would be good too. I don’t think however anyone would be disappointed with a meal here. Very pleased in the main.

Loved the food as esquisite and could not fault. Please be less opinionated about what I should drink and what I should pay as a tip as this leaves a sour taste in my mouth when I am paying in excess of £200 for 3 people. Leave the food to do the talking and the rest will take care of itself.

Travelling up the country from the South West and made a detour to eat in the Birmingham area. Where else would we go but the charming Da Ginos. We have visited on a number of occasions when visiting family in the area and have NEVER been disappointed. There is always a warm welcome as you enter this real gem of an Italian ristorante. The menu is extensive and there are a number of daily specials offered also.The staff are well informed and can always answer any menu queries. Our table of three chose a variety of dishes - a daily special of prawns and scallops, a starter Carbonara and a Caprese salad to begin . Followed by a wild mushroom risotto, veal saltimbocca and one of our favourites -beef stroganoff. We chose a bottle of Gavi di Gavi from the comprehensive wine list - Gino always on hand to discuss options/ food pairings. One of our party chose a dessert of Black Forrest gateau to end, which he said was delicious and authentic. Sadly as we still had a good few miles to travel we had to shorten our visit but once again a wonderful, faultless meal - well worth the extra miles. We will be back.

We have just returned to the area from living in Singapore I was managing 5 Star luxury hotels and Exclusive Private Members Clubs in Asia We came across this restaurant by chance and have visited 3 times in recent weeks It’s family owned and Gino and Anne the owners along with their team deliver a perfect experience the friendliness and sincerity from them is truly amazing the service is the best of the best The Ala Carte menu is extensive and the food prepared is of the very highest quality, fresh, aromatic and delicious. last night we had the Moules Mariniere in a tomato sauce they were delicious, followed by the Rack of Lamb it was cooked to perfection, with a beautiful tasteful gravy served with freshly cooked vegetables. Accompanied with a nice bottle of Amarone which was reasonably priced and all in all it was great value for money and will now become our regular eating place for sure A special thanks to Elena whose service is warm and impeccable It’s a must try for sure and you won’t be disappointed as an ex Hotelier and Food & Beverage specialist I’m impressed with what they offer and pleasantly surprised to come across this establishment in the heart of Sutton Coldfield W Midlands We will be back and thanks to the team 🙏 Sean Boyle & TK Lee

So delighted that Da Gino's is open again - we missed the restaurant very much during lockdown. We've been for a few Sunday lunches since reopening and they are straight back to their usual excellent standard of food and service.Gino and his staff are clearly following all the appropriate Covid-19 guidelines but it is done with a light touch and does not affect the warm welcome or lovely atmosphere of the restaurant. We love Da Gino's because of the excellent food and superb staff who work incredibly hard to make each visit special. All the dishes on the menu are very good but I particularly enjoy some of the special starters including the aubergine parmigiana or stuffed peppers and onions when they are available. They also do an excellent Sunday roast. If you have room, the desserts are always an extra special treat!Highly recommended!

My husband and I are both NHS key workers and after a long shift decided to go for dinner here with the Eat Out to Help Out scheme.I called them in advance to check that they were doing the scheme and was told they were. I booked a table and after a long wait was seated.I only wanted a small portion as am trying to have better portion control so only ordered a starter and my husband ordered a main and a side. I was shouted at infront of the whole restaurant being told I was not allowed to order a starter only. The ladies sitting next to us even commented on the waiters attitude.The waiter eventually said I could order the starter only this once and not again which seems strange because my husband could have just booked a table for 1 and would not be told to order more food.Once we got to the till to pay I was told that there was a minimum spend of £40 to be eligible for the government scheme which is incorrect. The waiters attitude throughout was disgusting.What was supposed to be a mid week treat turned out to be a mid week nightmare. It’s a shame because I have only just moved to the area and live just down the road.There are much better restaurants a few doors down from this with impeccable service, choose wisely.

We found ourselves once again in the area and were keen to repeat our last two visits to Da Ginos. Three months on and we weren't disappointed. Amazingly the staff recognised us and we were shown to our table feeling very special. The food was excellent. We chose two bottles of the San Gimignano, not readily available at our local Italian restaurant- delicious. It was a cold and damp February Saturday but Da Ginos was full and there was a warm atmosphere. A thoroughly enjoyable visit - again . Thank you Mr and Mrs 'Gino' and your very attentive staff.

We dined at Da Gino's as part of my 40th Birthday celebrations. We were a family of 12 consisting of young children, adults and grandparents. Staff were extremely attentive and courteous and looked after us incredibly well. The restaurant was busy, as it usually is, however everything ran like clockwork and was well timed. All of the meals were brought out in succession and the orders, including modifications and extras were all correct, which for a large party is no easy feat. My guests, who were all from out of town commented that it was the nicest Italian restaurant they'd ever been to and the best food they'd had. So much so, that they wanted to return on the Sunday! We're so lucky to have such a fine and authentic establishment in out local area. As always Da Ginos Team - thank you for an outstanding meal! Trish & family

We live in Streetly. Visited here a couple of years ago when it was good. After visiting tonight for our sons birthday we have never had such poor service at a restaurant. We were asked to sit and look at menus in bar area. We sat there for nearly 20mins past our table time. We asked if we could look at menu at our table instead. It was 40 minutes before someone took our starter(after we asked if we could order) food took half hour to arrive. We had to ask for extra wine glasses to be removed from table to make more space. Waitress was quite abrupt when we wanted to discuss wine available. Considering this is about 20 minute walk fro our house, we will not be going back there. Service was terrible,not once did we get asked if we wanted more drinks( we had to ask) We didn't get asked if meal was satisfactory. Would rather travel further to enjoy our family time/ celebration. Would certainly not recommend this restaurant.

It's a bit difficult to find accolades that have not been used when it comes to Da Gino's. We booked for Christmas dinner and anticipated a good time, what we experienced surpassed all expectations. We were greeted like long lost family and by the time we left we felt like we had known every member of staff all of our lives. The food was exceptional which was an achievement in its own right as the place was very busy. My one abiding memory is that of the chef looking out over the pass with a smile, safe in the knowledge of a job well done.

We decided to start our xmas with a nice little sunday lunch at Da Ginos restaurant. My wife works directly above the premises and has known the owners for a considerable time. On arrival we were greeted nicely and immediately put at ease and asked what drinks we would like - whilst we ordered our food. The food was served piping hot and on time, with the staff very friendly and attentive. We both had complimentary bruschetta, followed by mushroom starters. main course crepes/ spinach and cannelloni and the quality of both food and chosen wines were first class. This is a seriously first class restaurant and would recommend to anyone if your looking for that something special.

First visit and will definatley be returning. Very busy Saturday Night but a pleasant drink in the bar while browsing the wide and varied choice before being seated at our table. Service was very good and attentive. Food was top quality and flowed at a nice steady pace throughout the evening.

This was a very attractive restaurant, well laid out with seemingly plenty of staff. The menu was extensive and had many good choices. We were a party of six - 4 of us chose fillet steak with a variety of sauces and 2 had fish.

We visited on two occasions whilst visiting family living in the area. Warm welcome , served by attentive but not pestering staff. Extensive menu and a good list of daily specials. My fillet of beef with Gorgonzola was sublime and husband and son’s Beef Stroganoffs were equally enjoyed. We went for pasta choices on our second visit and weren’t disappointed- my lasagna was delicious.Reasonable wine list talked through by the owner. Two really good meals in a delightful family restaurant , will definitely return when we are in the area again.

Ginos offers a high quality and good value Sunday lunch with lots of choice including Italian favourites and a Sunday roast. The service is always excellent. Many thanks Gino and the team for a delicious meal. We will be back again soon.

I attended Da Ginos with my family yesterday evening, and we were not to be disappointed. The food was delicious, the members off staff were very welcoming and then ensured we thoroughly enjoyed our evening at Da Ginos. We would definitely be visiting again. A quick mention to the kind lady who served me the most wonderful profiteroles for desert, it really topped off a brilliant occasion for my family and girlfriends birthday evening out. Thank you Da Ginos we will definitely be back soon!

Great food, great atmosphere but was left with a bitter taste recently after booking a table over the phone for 6pm and was told we’d have until 7.30m, which wasn’t a problem. Having finished our main course, with a good 35/40 left, I asked for the sweet menu. The waitress came back after 10 minutes saying we wouldn’t have time for a sweet as we would have to leave by 7.15pm. We were then promptly given the bill without asking, and felt very really awkward that we had to rush our drinks and angry we had been told we had been told we had to leave earlier than initially informed. We consequently stayed until almost 25 past and low and behold, nobody was waiting to take our table. I won’t be returning as a result and didn’t leave a tip! Very disappointed!!

What a gem! Hey food lovers,this is no joke... If you want to treat yourself and others look no further. Super tasty,full of freshness,well done and prepared with a smile! I won't be surprised if there will be a mile long queue over here soon...but it's worth that extra mile.
