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.
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 !

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.
We dined at Gia during the Roscioli pop-up & were completely blown away! It was our first time at Gia but will certainly not be out last.
Inside the nondescript concrete building that houses Gia is a warm & inviting atmosphere that is just loud enough to create a vibe, but not too loud where you can't share an intimate conversation with your date.
We were greeted warmly & the server answered all of our questions with a smile, while making some excellent meal suggestions.
We started with cocktails, a white negroni, which hit every note, & a Paper Plane, which my wife enjoyed from the first sip to the last.
On the food front, we began with the fried artichokes, which were crisp & cooked to perfection & a delicious squash dish which had cheese, pears & hazelnuts -- equally tasty!.
We moved on to the Carbonara, which was utterly perfect. Cooked to al dente deliciously crisp guanciale scattered throughout. We also sampled the mezze pasta in a spicy, rich tomato sauce with crisp guanciale (can never have too much). Exceptional.
Next we had the braised short rib, which fell apart at a glance, served with some balsamic glazed cippolini onions which cut through the luxurious richness of the dish. We paired this with the braised puntarelle, a unique bitter green which was coated in a delicious dressing/sauce & was an excellent match with the beef.
The server & sommelier were both very knowledgeable with the wines & made some excellent suggestions which proved to be lovely pairings with the meal.
Needless to say, we were stuffed, satisfied & had an overall amazing time at Gia. 10/10.
