Gigi Trattoria

Loved this restaurant! We had a lovely round of drinks from their fun menu; sake margarita and a black cosmo? The service was good, our server started strong and did get slower as our meal went on but the restaurant also got busy so it made sense. Luckily they had busboys helping out. All the meals we had were delicious, specifically the burrata appetizer. We also had the most delicious sweet potato cheesecake for dessert, it might be seasonal though so go in now! Also our chocolate martinis were to die for, props to the bartender. It was a bit pricey but had a lovely chic and fancy vibe. My whole party really enjoyed our dinner here, highly recommend a visit!

It's...fine. But not for the price. We managed to spend $165 before tip for three people. We had only one glass of wine. Had the salad wedge appetizer, which was, again, fine. But the usual, gotta say, "upstate dressing bath," in which restaurants drench salads in silly amounts of dressing. Steak Frites was quite good. Just not NYC prices good. Would we go back? Hmmm... Maybe. The staff was lovely, the vibe/atmosphere is nice enough. We might venture to Kingston for a more distinctive dining experience if we're looking to spend this kinda bank.

I enjoyed my meal. In particular the flatbread. The salad was good, but the vegetables were a bit dry. The outside seating area is very nice. Inside out can get dark and when I asked to be sat somewhere bright, they refused to stay me at a larger table even though they were completely empty and by the time I left nobody had sat in them. Other than that the staff was attentive, though not particularly friendly. Most of them didn't even respond to greetings, and again, it was a slow time of day.

If you haven’t eaten at Gigis in rhinebeck I highly recommend it. They have such a great menu and straight off the menu anyone with any dietary restrictions can find something delicious to eat. I’ve been there only once before and loved it then but I really appreciated the menu even more tonight. Such great options.

Friendly host welcomed us into the restaurant and then it went down from there. We sat towards the back of the restaurant and it was nice and quiet. The waitress was quick to take our order and once it was served, we were forgotten. They offered to fill our water when we asked for the check. The Il Guardino flatbread pizza was not flavorful at all. My husband loved his Gigi Burger. All in all for the menu prices and service, I’d fine another place to dine.
