Reviews for Gina's Mexican Cafe in Nanaimo, BC
I heard good things about Gina's from some co-workers here in Nanaimo. They're definitely true! Tasted amazing and very cozy... atmosphere with friendly staff. I'll be coming back for sure. Everyone should try it out if you're in the area. Read more
The food was overall good. They bring you fresh chips and homemade salsa to start. I had the chicken buritto ( sorry no... pic). While the food portions are huge, the chicken breast in the buritto was very dry and seemed under seasoned compared tothe rest of the plate. Sides of corn rice and refried beans all very tasty. Service was fast and friendly and the ambiancevery ???? good. Read more
Unexpected we saw this cafe while getting lost on our day trip to Nanaimo island.Too bad we didn't discover them earlier so we... are too full to order any of their delicious Mexican food. The service is really good, staff are friendly and lovely! Theywelcome us with a bowl of tortilla chips & dip, we ordered their sulsh margarita & 1 without alcohol. We definitely would comeback to Nanaimo to try their menu!! Read more
Really good Mexican food. This was one of the best lunch restaurants visited on a 6 day Vancouver Island vacation. Great staff... service too. Read more
The 3 of us ate here last night and overall it was a good experience. I'd definitely go back to try again or get take out. We... got 2x Navajo plates and I got the Frisco Kid. Flavor was really good aside from the rice which was a bit bland but I thinkthat's how it's supposed to be. I have to say that the blended margaritas were SERIOUSLY below par though which was shockingconsidering everything else seems to be pretty good quality. The lime one just tasted really watery and we couldn't taste anytequila. It was a Saturday night and really busy so we waited longer than usual for our food, probably around 40 mins, which wasok because the place is cute and you can pass the time if you have company, but our server didn't come by to check on our emptydrinks. We only had to wait about 15 mins for a table when we arrived though so that was reasonable. Would have rated a 4 if theservice was a bit better. Read more
Lovely and warm welcoming staff! The atmosphere of this place is cozy, vibrant and very inviting. Food was yum !I got the... burrito speciality and the flavours were good and well balanced. Read more
We had friends visit from out of town and they requested Mexican for dinner. We gave Gina's a go and it was FANTASTIC! So good... actually that we went back two nights later again ???? Portions were great, prices fair, flavour top notch. Our kids came withus on the second visit and asked for seconds, and they're usually picky eaters (to be fair, kid-friendly Mexican food is usuallysome variation of cheese and tortilla, regardless they loved it). Churros for dessert was just the cherry on top. Highlyrecommend giving them a try! Read more
