Reviews for Gabriella's Italian Grill & Pizzeria in Edmond, OK
We stopped in Friday night for dinner around 6:00 and they were already packed! Reservations are a must if you want a table. ... We ended up eating on the patio without a reservation which was not a problem. The service and food were both amazing! Ihighly recommended this place. The original location was great but their new location brings things to a whole new level. Definitely no disappointments here. Read more
Gabriella's is an upscale Italian grill which can get busy on the weekends. Despite having a reservation for a private room, we... were seated near the kitchen well past our time. They explained they were backed up. The calamari and Italian nachos wereplentiful and tasted delicious. Be aware that the fried calamari has fried banana peppers or pepperocinis mixed in that areindistinguishable. It took the server 45 minutes to bring out more bread for the six of us. Our server wrote my father's orderon the back of the ticket and forgot to enter in his food. He had to wait around 10 minutes for his pizza. Price point is morealigned with the ingredients than service at this expensive Italian restaurant. Read more
We went in through the wrong door but was still greeted nicely and sat at a table right away. Service was fast and friendly.... Slight hiccup with serving our entrees before the appetizer. Pesto and mussels felt a bit salty for us. Lasagna was decent. Willtry other things on the menu again and update. Read more
We ate here on recommendation and were not disappointed. The food was excellent all around and came in huge portions (we also... had lunch the next day)! The crab cocktail fingers were the highlight of my night (only because I don't eat seafood as much asI'd like). I also had the Roma pasta with an order of meatballs, which was rich and well cooked. My wife had the calamari andeggplant parmigiana. Lastly, the house dipping sauce for the bread is excellent and very unique. The only criticism I had forfood is that the marinara served with the calamari is very savory, so I did not think it complemented the savory calamari well.I would have rather had a citrusy white sauce to go with it. Service was a little slow, but they were busy and the dining areais terribly laid out. They are moving to another location, so I am hoping that this improves, and I'm not knocking them for it.I also wish that the lighting was a little brighter and more even. The dining room was not too loud and easy to speak at normallevels. Our waiter was very personable and knowledgeable on their food. The food may seem a little pricey, but it is excellentquality and I doubt you'd be disappointed in it. Overall, this place reminded my wife and I of Italy and we can't wait to trythe new location!

I wasn't sure what wine I wanted, so Justin, my waiter, brought me a couple of samples and was determined to find me the perfect... fit. The food was as amazing as always (I had the eggplant parmigiana), and the service was excellent. Read more
Just drove in for a date night. A very great atmosphere. Drinks were strong and food was excellent. Our waiter was superb. A... uniquely great experience. I highly recommend this restaurant and understand the hype. Read more
I love everything about this place. My 2 girls and I got a round table that was tucked away in our own tiny little room. The... decor and vibe of the place is very much like Italy; reminded me of the hole in the wall places we used to find by accident thatonly the locals knew about. The food was fantastic; they forgot my appetizer but I probably would have been too full to enjoymy entree so it?s fine. The kids loved it too, we can?t wait to go back! Read more
We dined-in on Friday night (10/21/22 at 7pm) with reservations. In sharing this, I'm mindful of how local restaurants are... impacted in our post-COVID economy. I had been looking forward to trying this for several years and was excited to see it hadbeen relocated to Edmond. For the level of excitement I have carried, I was unfortunately disappointed in the dishes we ordered.The first two items I attempted to order, I was told they were not available that evening. We ordered Bolognese Pappardelle andCoal Miner's Special. We also ordered the spinach artichoke dip appetizer, but it was never brought out. However, we do plan toorder here again because I'm sure the service was just having an off day....and because every pizza that walked past our table -our eyes and noses followed. Update on second visit - 10/28/22 at 6:45pm. My boyfriend went to go pick up the pizza he calledin while I was on my way home from work. The hostess directed him to a checkout station where he was passed by several serversfor several minutes until one finally asked if he had been helped yet. They said that he was supposed to be at another station. We got the Roma pizza and spinach artichoke dip. We liked the pizza but have personal preference for a crispier crust. Thedip was great - the artichoke was diced which I thought was unique, it was served with light & airy bread. Read more
