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.
I recently dined at this fantastic restaurant, where the warm ambiance immediately set the tone for an enjoyable evening. The staff's friendliness made us feel truly welcome. As for the food, every dish was amazing, with a special mention to the exceptional pasta. Perfect for a date!
Jan 5, 2024 The food here is always amazing. That being said, the staff has some sort of attitude issue which i cannot stand. Not all of them of course, but some think that they do us the honor of accepting us. We ended up spending close to 1K & we were only 4 people. Yet we got extremely poor service. When we got there, one waiter recommended a drink that ended up costing $60 per shot. We only found out the price at the end when we tried to re-fill. Who suggests that as a first drink without a warning? Anyhow, another waitress then asked us progressively what we wanted (entree, main dish...ect) & we ordered accordingly. When we got to the main dish, we were told that our choice takes 1h to prepare & that we wont have time to eat it because our table is only reserved for 2h. I argued that is not our fault & that we should have been warned from the beginning. In addition, we ordered on time everytime the waitress had requested it. She didnt want to accommodate us but we agreed to eat something else in exchange of keeping our seating. 30 min later another waitress who we never say the whole night took over & told us the agreement doesnt work & that we have to change seatings regarldess. We argued our case without success. 30 min later, the chef came causing a scene & saying we wont have enough time. We finally got them to bring our main dish (they of course forgot the side dish salad which they nevertheless charged us for) & we ended up having the time to eat it fast fast. Ultimately, we had finished on time anyways & this entire thing lasted 1h. In no instance were we provided with a solution, a free drink or anything else to compensate. If we were told to change seatings but that dessert was on them instead of arguing with us & giving us attitude we would have been fine. Instead they made us feel unwanted & we were pretty much rushed out. My friends, who always tip 25-40% sometimes, decided not to which caused another scene where we were explained how wrong we were & that it was "weird". I am sorry, but when a table spends close to 250/300 per person in a short window of 2h & your waiters do not warn anyone about cooking time & blame you, the restaurant is the problem, not the customer. easily, they could have proposed free cheap drinks to the next clients & to us or just could have not said anything & we would have finished on time anyways. extremely arrogant.
From outside you wouldn't think it's a restaurant. But once inside, you have this cute little decor. The staff were amazing. The sharing menu for 75$ if I recall correctly, was well proportioned & delicious. They also have this wine selection that comes with a nice story from the wine steward.
Been at Gia several times & always an amazing experience, excellent food (Fenouil salad is a must!!!) & private import wine selections are great, all this with a great vibe. On top of this, parking super easy due to location.
