    Bar Gigi is such a wonderful treat. Small, intimate and funky. The servers are very attentive and knowledgeable and the food was exciting and delicious. There are so many amazing vegetarian options, and our one meat dish was super tasty. Loved everything about this little nook of nosh.

    Excellent service. The staff were so welcoming and knowledgeable. Great cocktails and the food was very tasty. I would highly recommend coming here. I loved the nod to the prior establishment with the Bar Gigi sign superimposed on the old Halibut Hut sign. Very cool. Looking forward to our next visit back.

    Unfortunately the prawn toast was a bit overrated but the squash, bocconcuni and raviloni sheet were stand outs. Very good espresso martini. And our servers went above and beyond, they were so kind to us ! That itself would make me return . Besides, I didn't get a chance to try the crudo or mussels! Great night celebrating our friends birthday!
