What User likes about Gamba:
Fantastic food and excellent service! They managed New Year's Eve remarkably well, just like any top restaurant would. Gamba ranks among the top two restaurants in Northwest Indiana, and it keeps getting better and better! View all feedback. What Disappointed doesn't like about Gamba:
First they were out of two items we tried to order. The server was visibly not interested. My wife ordered Ravioli for $30 and got 7 pieces with no side. My special was the Scallops with spaghetti and it was spaghetti with a ton of pees and some small chopped up scallops. The taste was ok but I cook that good and would never use a cup of pees on anything. It wasn't busy at all so no excuses there. The company My Wife... View all feedback.
