    Always a great evening out at Region. Food and service were excellent. We were celebrating our son’s 28th birthday and had a lovely experience-apps, mains and dessert were all well done and tasty, and drinks were well made as well. This is not a cheap night out, but it delivers value for the price.

    The food was excellent and atmosphere was great. I ordered and waited for food. The waitress didn't offer any rolls or bread while I waited on my dinner. My dinner was brought out fast after ordering, which I loved. Overall, a good experience.

    After a disappointing experience on August 17th my husband and I decided to give Gibsons another chance after reassurances from Scott. Well, I have to say this time around was absolutely fantastic! The service was top notch and the food was excellent. Every request was attended to immediately. The entire Gibsons staff were so accommodating and friendly. When I spoke with Scott back in August he said next time we come in to ask for him so that he could make sure we were happy with our dinner. So I did ask for him to stop by and say hello and took several times of me asking before he stopped by, but it was a busy Saturday night so I understand he was busy. That was the only issue otherwise everything was perfect and we are looking forward to our next visit.

    We were seated promptly. Our waitress Jenni was prompt, friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. Food was really good. I feel like the calamari has actually gotten bigger lately. Everything was great.
