The seafood is just OK at this long-standing island restaurant, though it's great for dessert and some coffee.

A 100 year old island tradition. Check out the new seasonal menu. Pretzel crusted calamari steaks are outstanding! Grab a cookbook while you're there.

The service was excellent as was the food. Our experience @ Gaido's was great. We were actually running about 5-10 min late for our reservations. The restaurant called me to confirm that we were still going to arrive & I told them we were running late and they said no problem, they would hold our table. The service was excellent as was the food. There were 8 of us dining and not one had anything derogatory to say. We will dine there again.

extremely popular place. Overall we enjoyed Gaido's. The food was good enough, and the ocean view is lovely. It seemes to be an extremely popular place with the locals.

Great food and our service was excellent. Great food and our service was excellent- she gave us plenty of info since it was our first time there in 20 years. Their seafood bisque was out of this world and the oysters served several ways in a combo platter was a delight. Not only did the waitress take good care of us but a manager and one of the chefs also came by to talk to us. Will definitely make Gaidos a place to take our friends and family often

Drove from Houston here just for lunch. I've been going here everytime I'm in town for the last 15 years and it is always a great experience! In fact, I drove from Houston just to have lunch!

always pleasing. I have been coming to Gaido's on and off for many years. I have never been disappointed in the service which is friendly and efficient. The food is always pleasing to the palate and there are sufficient options for even the diet conscientious. Even the host or manager will come around to check to make sure everything is satisfactory to your taste/expectations.
