Donny G's Ristorante

All of the food was very delicious. The cheesecake was my favorite. By far, the tastiest cheesecake I have ever had. The service was great, and so was the atmosphere. We all loved the music.

Came for Simply Kathleen. Will be back for the Gimbotta. Excellent band tonight was the motivation to go. The food was excellent as well and the waitress was very helpful. This place was still hopping at 10 pm

Italian restaurant in Elmwood Park, that's been around for decades. Good food , nice ambience and good service! The Italian bread and dip( parmesan cheese mixed with olive oil and a little pepper flakes) are goooood! For appetizers I started with 1/2 dozen Baked Clams- Whole littleneck clams on the half shell, topped with seasoned breadcrumbs, fresh herbs, garlic, , they were on the smaller side which I assume maybe because they're not in season- they were ok, I'll pass on these next time & then I also ordered the Pasta Fagioli soup, which is Cannellini beans, small tubular pasta, and plum tomatoes in a light savory tomato broth with garlic and olive oil, very GOOD! You must try this !! Annnnnd I also ordered the Caprese Salad-thick sliced tomatoes, bocconcini cheese, and fresh basil drizzled with extra virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar You can never go wrong with a caprese salad and here it's very good too So for dinner I chose the Rigatoni pasta with crumbled spicy sausage, tomato, and marjoram in a creamy sauce topped with parmesan. And let me tell you, this was a winner for me! & my dinner partner ordered the Salmon Lemon Butter W/Spinach- Salmon fillet in a lemon butter sauce, served with sauted spinach.. omg this was SOOO good. A must to order it you like good Salmon !! To finish we ordered the in house made canoli- which was good too but the winner had to be the Lemon sorbet... nice and refreshning after a great meal! They just recently started opening for breakfast so I'll definately be coming back to try that out and give a review of that in the near future! Buon Appetito !!

Everything great, clams are only ok.

If you're looking at a top notch Italian Restaurant at a decent price you will not be disappointed with Donny Gs. A must try, excellent service, atmosphere and delicious food.

Stumbled across Donny G's while we waited for traffic to die down. Its absolutely fantastic! The atmosphere is fun and welcoming. The food is top notch and so tasty! Service excellent and the team is so engaging! We are going back again next week! Top choice!

Excellent food all around and everyone working there were all great. The octopus was a stand-out but my deliciously simple Pasta, Peas and Prosciutto was exactly what I was hoping for! (pictured)

I showed up with my date relatively late, hoping the kitchen wasn’t closed and luckily I was attended to quickly and was able to get served some fine Italian cuisine. Many thanks to Mario and the rest of the staff for making it a very pleasant first-time experience. I will be stopping by again soon.
