   My siblings and I had a fantastic time at Donny G’s from start to finish! The food was perfect. Calamari was unbelievable and loved by all. The service was so kind, professional and attentive. They pay attention to the details. And then the dancing to top off the night! Excellent DJ. We will be back for sure!

   Everything was perfect! After we ate dinner we went into the next room where the bad was playing. It was Rick Lindy and The Wild Ones. They were awesome! We danced all night! Definitely going back to Donny G’s again.

   We went there during restaurant week and selected off that menu and ordered off that menu plus an appetizer from the regular menu. The artichoke hearts were amazing and a nice departure from whole breaded artichokes. I selected the pork chops in cherry pepper sauce. The chops were thick, juicy, well prepared and not too spicy. The potatoes were perfectly roasted and the meal was beautifully plated. My husband had the red snapper which was perfectly cooked and served with sautéed spinach. The third choice was chicken scalloping which rounded out the restaurant week menu. The meal included a glass of wine and gelato for dessert. The service was attentive and friendly. We will be returning for another meal soon.

   The most fabulous artichoke hearts I have ever enjoyed tasting and viewing. The beauty of the presentation is only enhanced by the artichoke tenderness and amazing flavor. I would drive miles just to enjoy this delightful treat.

   Truly amazing food, some of the best Italian dishes I've ever had. Me and my girlfriend went here on Valentine's day and despite the number of people the service was still great. Cannot recommend enough!

    My group went for late lunch and we thoroughly enjoyed our selections. The salad that accompanied the meal was larger than most restaurants provide as was the soup; both very good. The entrees were very fair priced especially in these inflationary times. The wait staff was friendly and accommodating. We all decided it was a place we would return to and recommend to friends.

    We absolutely enjoy going to Donny G’s for dinner. The food is delicious, and the waitstaff is awesome to say the least. They are always on point. My son mentioned that as much as he tried to drink water to the half way point on his glass the waiter would fill it back up. He couldn’t believe how observant the waiter was. Lol. We have never had any issues while dining here and I hope it stays that way. Knock on wood. Lol

    We went on a Saturday night for a friends bday dinner and there was a singer in the lounge and he was pretty good which was the only redeeming thing about the night. We ordered a dozen baked clams for an appetizer and they were the tiniest clams I’ve ever seen, about the size of a quarter and they were swimming in oil! We ordered soup and before we had taken a few spoons full the waitress brought out our entrees. I had a francais chicken piccata and it was possibly the saltiest thing I have ever eaten and I like salt! This place looks like an old school Italian restaurant but don’t be fooled, I grew up in an Italian family and this food is anything but authentic! When there is saganaki on the appetizers list in a supposedly Italian restaurant run for the door! We should have just had drinks and listened to the old school singer in the lounge, he was very good.

    Server was terrific, very attentive. The food was delicious, not one complaint from our table of five. And we were surprised when the bill came as it was very reasonable for two appetizers, five generous dinners, a bottle of wine and dessert. Great neighborhood place; we'll be back.

    The dinner was delicious as always but the table we were sat at was terrible. We were right by the front door. There was a private party so the front door was constantly being opening and closing. It was very cold. Our service was ok. We waited quite a while for drinks and when dinner came and we ordered another round, that was another 15-20 minute wait.

    This was our second time there. Each time the food was quite laking in flavor. Both the soups and linguini with clam sauce were nothing but bland. To make matters worse this time, the waitress kept disappearing. The kitchen needs to be introduced to spices and salt and pepper.
