This restaurant is different, cute, funky, and the food is yummy. DH and I had a little Chianti, and with that, and the old-world atmosphere, we happily recounted our memories of traveling through Italy by train years ago. This is not your chain restaurant with cookie-cutter meals. Relax. Enjoy. You'll like it.

This is a cute little Italian restaurant with tasty food. They were very helpful and friendly. We all really enjoyed the live music.

In a nutshell, it appears that the owner(s) are over-worked and under-staffed. They run the restaurant while trying to run the B&B. I'm not sure they do either one well. We didn't eat there, so you'll have to gamble on your own, but we noticed quite a bit of dust on the bookshelves in the dining area. We were greeted... More

We had the Bellagio Chianti, Baked Zitti with Meatballs and the Canneloni! These ladies can cook! They bring their NY Italian heritage to Oregon. Delicious!

Sally and I eat at this wonderful little restaurant at least once a month, we love it. We really like Wed all you can eat night. We both come from the East Coast (I am from NY) and this is REAL Italian like I remember. Thx you to the owners and staff for keeping the quality up all the time.... More

I talked my husband into eating at the Green Gables Italian Cafe in Newport, OR tonight. We stood in the entry for 2-3 minutes before a staff person came out of the kitchen delivering food to another party. The "first bites" were soggy and had just a few ingredients on it - not what was on the menu. The salad... More

We've been to Green Gables at least 6 times and they are consistently good. Our favorite is the marinara sauce with spicy sausage, next is the meat lasagna and cannelloni. It is small and eclectic, which we find makes it all the more enjoyable.

The food was great. Atmosphere funky - you eat surrounded by books, which are for sale. There was a guitar playing singer there the night we were and she was good. A memorable and good evening.

Everything is homemade here; authentic Italian from an east coast family. Atmosphere is cozy and intimate, but casual and comfortable. Live music is offered most nights, so check out who's playing. Have loved everything we've tried so far including the manicotti, pasta with pesto sauce, seafood lemon alfredo, and chocolate orange cheesecake.
