The service however was excellent. the staff went above & beyond in ways that left us feeling warm & content as we left.
Food was amazing but service was a bit slow. We still enjoyed it though! Definitely worth the wait.
Gia is a gem. Incredible, refined-but-not-pretentious Italian food. I've been maybe too many times & have never been disappointed with a dish. It's hard to comment on dishes that are always changing, so just know that everything is amazing: the freshest sea food, perfect pastas, amazing mains. The maitake arroaticini are to die for, had beautifully grilled rabbit last night. The sommelière is a genius--don't bother looking at the wine list, just order your food & ask for options, you will not be disappointed. The chocolate blood tart is amazing, the tiramisu almost made me cry.
La nourriture est fantastique. Nous avons commandé le menu de groupe qui nous a permis de goûter à plusieurs spécialités. Notre coup de coeur a été la pièce de boeuf qui était cuite à la perfection.
Les pommes de terre croustillantes & la salade de betteraves sont aussi dans nos favoris.
& cerise sur le gâteau, le gâteau au chocolat & la panettone perdue.
Nous reviendrons !
Really liked this restaurant! Went for my friend's birthday & we ordered literally everything on the menu & it was super good! Great vibes.
Rarely been this disappointed by a restaurant in Montreal.
We started with the oysters & crudo: $4 per oyster for tiny bland watery oysters you would get for $1 a unit elsewhere. The crudo however was good.
We then took the pork arrosticini, which were average. Small, oily & fatty pork skeweres.
We then moved on to the raddichio salad, the trout & the tagliatelle. The raddichio salad & tagliatelle were average...the tagliatelle had potential, they were just incredibly bland despite having gorgeous & numerous chanterelles. As for the trout, it was very subpar to say the least. We barely touched it as the fish didn't taste right or fresh, & the skin was soggy.
& don't get me started on the wine...$30 a glass for some basic wine...?
Overall, I doubt ever being back. $400 felt like an incredible ripoff for such an underwhelming meal. With so many amazing restaurants in Montreal, I don't recommend anyone waste their money here.
I was really excited to try this restaurant for a friend's birthday. The night started out well, however, it ended on a sour note. When it came time to split the bills, they were greatly miscalculated not once BUT twice.
When I pointed out the error the 2nd time around, the waiter yanked the bills out of my hand & insinuated that I am stupid claiming ``if my machine can't figure it out, then neither can you``. I felt incredibly embarrassed in front of my friends. This is not the way to treat your customers. For average food & condescending service, I will NEVER return.
Been 3 times & Gia never disappoints. Excellent food, attentive staff, & overall wonderful experience.
