Gigi's Italian Kitchen & Restaurant

Enjoyed an exceptional late Valentine’s dinner here! Walked in right at 5 with a small crowd of other early diners. We were seated in the bar dining room, within view and earshot of the counter service, which added to the lively, romantic atmosphere. So many mentions: beef carpaccio, oysters with mignonette, green salad, chicken marsala WITH focaccia to soak up the sauce, root vegetables. A bottle of red wine to warm the evening after a Negroni and Americano to open the palate. An excellent selection of Amari is the icing on the cake, and our server gave us a number of recommendations. Don’t miss the tiramisu, obviously. Oddly, they do not offer espresso. What Italian spot doesn’t have espresso! Regardless, come early, come late, but come to Gigi’s in Candler Park!

Easily a spot to remember, the tiramisu absolutely lives up to the hype. We really just came for the tiramisu but decided to try the Beef Carpaccio and House Focaccia (which pair really well together) along with the house red wine... and that was all amazing. Now the tiramisu... I'm not a sweets person but I was told it was incredible and worthy of it's reputation.... to which I must agree. Lastly, the entire staff was very accommodating. This was a special night and they did everything they could to realize it for us so thank you to everyone for this.

We ate here on a Monday night for my wife’s birthday. The food was all good, but overpriced in my opinion. We had the green salad, beef carpaccio, focaccia, chicken marsala, and sopresine pasta. It was all good, but nothing amazing. The service and atmosphere were both phenomenal.

Tiramisu is worth the hype. Steak was cooked really well although they didn't ask for preference. Not a full bar so limited drinks for cocktails. The polenta cakes were fine, crispy potatoes were surprisingly good. Biggest complaint is service - just didn't feel very attentive in general. You would expect better service with the vibe being intimate and cozy.

5 stars across the board! Did have to set an alarm for a weekend reservation, but worth it! Got one of every appetizer to share with my group and a tiramisu of course.
