Gia Vin & Grill se spécialise dans la préparation de plats italiens traditionnels associés à des viandes grillées à haute température. Le menu met en avant des pâtes artisanales nappées de sauces robustes longuement mijotées, accompagnées de coupes de viande saisies sur flammes vives. Les offres signatures soulignent des profils de saveurs régionales authentiques, privilégiant l'équilibre entre les produits frais de saison et les textures grillées et savoureuses. L'espace se définit par des éléments de design industriel, des murs en briques apparentes et une approche axée sur l'appréciation culinaire collective. Chaque assiette reflète un engagement technique envers les traditions de la cuisine méditerranéenne, mariant la vivacité acide à la profondeur riche du gril au charbon. La sélection garantit une qualité constante, conservant une signature aromatique distincte et des notes herbacées raffinées sur l'ensemble du menu.
Gia Vin & Grill est largement reconnu pour sa cuisine italienne authentique et raffinée, son atmosphère chaleureuse et la compétence de son service, de nombreux clients décrivant leurs visites comme étant mémorables. Bien que le menu reçoive fréquemment des éloges pour ses plats créatifs et savoureux, notamment les pâtes fraîches, les grillades et les desserts, certains convives ont souligné que les portions peuvent paraître petites par rapport au prix. Si la grande majorité des expériences sont très positives, une partie de la clientèle a exprimé des frustrations concernant les politiques relatives aux groupes, la lenteur occasionnelle du service ou le rapport qualité-prix, mais beaucoup d'autres considèrent cet établissement comme une destination incontournable à Montréal pour ceux qui recherchent une expérience gastronomique à la fois sophistiquée et décontractée.
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 !
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.
A casual, hip atmosphere that's a little off the beaten track, Gia Vin Grill offers wonderfully delicious artisanal fare with a gracious wait staff & accomplished, creative bar. We enjoyed every morsel-skewers of lamb, beef & pork; tomato salad with burrata; homemade focaccia; perfectly prepared hangar steak, lamb shank, & grilled pork chop-all to beat the band. We closed w/homemade gelato, hazelnut cake with Chantilly cream & berries + tiramisu-each one more delicious than the next. Will we return. You bet without question.

The food here was truly amazing. We had the raw halibut which was similar to a ceviche, the muscles with the salsa which were my favourite, pork & beef skewers, as well as three different salads, the green mint bean salad, the salad with mixed greens, as well as the zucchini salad. We also had the grilled arctic char & the lobster risotto. The risotto portion, I expected to be larger esp as a main, but with all the food we had, we were full.
2024: service was still excellent. Music was better. Lamb arrosticini, eggplant, fennel salad, & pici pasta with ragu were delicious. Great presentation overall. Suggested wine pairing worked well. Agua Di Gia cocktail was a bit boring. 2022: Friendly & efficient service. Great wine recommendations. Shared the lamb & beef arrosticini, the eggplant, the artichoke, the lamb sausage, & the duck tartare. All were unique & delicious. Music & decor could be a little more interesting, but overall a fantastic experience.
Nous sommes venus au GIA pour mon anniversaire & it did not disappoint! Tout était parfait. Les huîtres, les brochettes, la salade de fenouil, les pommes frites, le tiramisu 10/10. Merci Victor pour ton service & ton implication. He def knows whats up!!!! Highly recommend.
Very relax atmosphere Fun deco We shared: Entree: beef skewers ( lots of fat pieces ), fennel salad :dressing was blend the fish crocchette crispy on the outside but very very soft texture in the inside & the eggplant they were ok Main course: omble chevalier on a bed of peas & string beans tasteless rigatoni was blend & a piece of steak which no one ate it's was really a tough piece of meat couldn't chew it the waiter remove it from our bill Overall disappointed but their twist on the mai tai cocktail was unbelievable & their focaccia bred very good
I've been to Gia before & it never disappoints! They have a nice restaurant inside as well as a big tent outside for the summer. We came for my bday dinner & immediately made friends with the bartender, Jon, who was super nice! We had the garlic honey brioche bread (divine) with the lamb & beef arrosticini (dip the bread in the oils!). We also had the fish balls & the fennel salad, which were delicious too. The salad has a strong taste of anchovy if that isn't your thing. We got the tiramisu & I wasn't crazy about it - a bit too heavy on the dark chocolate & espresso taste. Oh & the filthy martini was very good! Overall great vibe. Prices on the higher side because you'll get multiple plates. Fun specials. Parking on the street.
We were a table of 4. The locale is pretty cool. A touch loud but tolerable. Drinks ? So we can't make a cosmo because we have no cranberry juice (yes I'm old school). Ok let's have an Aperol spritz, sadly it's a little flat but we move on. We order a whole bunch of different entrees. Polenta, green bean salad, fennel salad, crostini & the focaccia. Everything was delicious &'fresh'. Fresh is in parenthesis because the young lady who was waiting on us used that description for almost every dish she explained. Although the dishes are pretty self explanatory. Our finished drinks stayed on the table a little too long & she never came back to ask if we wanted anything else to drink. So we flag her & order wine. We get our mains but still no wine. She finally comes with glasses & the bottle. & then proceeds to disappear with the bottle. We ask another staff member where the wine is because our mains are getting cold .... She proceeds to return with an opened bottle of wine & no cork She was making sure it was good. Euh no you open the bottle in front of me ... when I ask she told me that this is how sommeliers do it not to disturb the guests at the table. She has worked in a Michelin star restaurant & that's how it's done. Well I didn't share with her because it's not necessary but amongst the four of us we are well traveled & have done a few restos here & abroad, starred & not & no. You open the bottle where the guest can see you. You don't want to trouble? you do it in retreat but not where I can't see you. Anyhoo. This post has gone on enough. All is all food was really really worth it. Service staff was very friendly & smiling but this one girl although very sweet lost a lot of points with saying fresh 12 too many times & hiding to open our wine. Would go back ☺️
L'ambiance est tendance & invitante & le service fut impeccable sans être prétentieux. Chaque plat était délicieux tout en mettant de l'avant des ingrédients saisonniers. Nous avons particulièrement aimé la salade de radis. Belle sélections de vins nature & cocktails. À ne pas manquer!
