Gina's Cafe — Restaurant in St. Michaels

We had heard that Gina's is a local favorite in St. Michaels, so we had to try it out! Got there around noon and within 10 minutes all the outside tables were full. The drinks are STRONG and delicious. Flavored margaritas and delicious food. The appetizers are entre sized and will fill you up!!! We had the crabmeat nachos and a crabdip to start, and were BLOWN AWAY by the size and amount of toppings on the nachos. They don't skimp on anything here!!! That's the way to do business, in my opinion! They don't skimp on the booze, or the crab, or the ingredients in any of their food. And they make their own tortilla chips, ok?? Best flavored and with an awesome crunch. Even though the nachos defeated my husband and me, we HAD to order some of their famous tacos. My husband got the sesame tuna with seaweed salad and sushi ginger. He and I are not even a fan of seaweed salad and it was AMAZING. I got the shrimp tacos with a mango salsa, and was blown away. Both had such a huge amount of seafood and sauce and the flavor combinations were out of this world. We can see why this place is a favorite! Definitely the most casual place we ate at in St. Michaels, and we loved the decor and cute centerpieces, which were different at every table. Dogs were welcome, and the tables were spaced well with COVID precautions. Servers would visit at least 2 tables to take orders, without ever writing anything down, and nothing was ever messed up! Amazing job, and amazing restaurant! Gina, whoever you are,...

While looking for a place to get lunch in St. Michaels we found Gina’s. We parked in their large lot behind the restaurant and went inside through their patio. The inside was full of creative knick-knacks hanging everywhere. Their menu was full of intriguing items and we ordered the guacamole and chips for a starter. It was delicious and the puffed up slightly salty deep fried flour tortillas were a perfect compliment.

I ordered their Wild Mushroom soup with local Lion’s Mane mushrooms along with several other types. The stock was hearty and contained thin sliced carrots, onions and other veggies. Delicious! I also ordered their colorful Chili Nacho’s which were covered in melted cheese and hearty bean chili topped with more great guacamole. My wife ordered the spring salad and topped it with large grilled shrimp. Everything was delicious!! Our server was on top of her game and very attentive. Gina’s was a perfect place for our lunch and we’ll go back the next time we visit St. Michael’s for sure. Besides all the great food Gina’s has...

So the girlfriend and I spent 3 days in St. Michaels and ate at many restaurants (and if you're looking for a quaint town with lots of food options def check out St. Michaels!). So on our 2nd night we decided to eat at Gina's which was a departure from our seafood laden haunts that we had been to since we arrived. The decor is amazing inside and the music was fun! The staff was all incredibly helpful (the bartender checked on us, the wait staff checked on us, even the busser checked on us!). But the food was the true highlight. Girlfriend had the Miami Tango Tacos which were delicious and not overwhelming and I had the special burrito of the day which was vegetarian and simply to die for. Dessert was only one option, the Xangos (pictured) and it was also so so good. Oh we each had a drink and the check was not outrageous whatsoever. After returning home we tried to decide what our favorite activity was in St. Michaels as well as place to eat. Activity was (big shoutout here) the Maritime Museum. Place to eat? Easily...
