Gigi is widely regarded as a staple in Pointe Claire, celebrated for its nostalgic atmosphere and authentic, Greek-style pizza that many patrons describe as some of the best in Montreal. Reviewers frequently praise the generous toppings, quality dough, and flavor, with many long-time customers noting that the food has remained consistently delicious over the years. While the restaurant is often lauded for its friendly, efficient staff and cozy, old-school diner environment, some visitors mention that the space is quite small and that the pricing can be higher than average. Opinions on the secondary menu items are mixed, as some diners love the steak subs, while others express disappointment with specific dishes like the lasagna or inconsistencies in preparation. Despite occasional critiques regarding portion sizes, salty cheese, or service hiccups, the overwhelming sentiment remains positive, with many diners considering the restaurant a must-visit destination for honest, comfort-driven food.
I ordered a 10-inch vegetarian pizza along with French fries, & it completely exceeded my expectations! Even though it was a small pizza, it was generously loaded with fresh green olives, capsicum, onions, mushrooms, & lots of mozzarella cheese.
Every topping tasted fresh & flavorful. What impressed me most was the quality & stuffing - despite being a small size, no other pizza chain's medium or even large pizza can compare to this restaurant's pizza.
Absolutely mind-blowing! I never expected it to be this good. Highly recommended!
I had another favorite pizza place until I got introduced to Gigi's. Not much else to say, it really is amazing, the place is clean & the staff is really nice & friendly.
If Gigi's Pizza has been voted the best in Montreal, I can wholeheartedly confirm that the title is well-deserved-the pizza here is absolutely no joke. It was fantastic, with perfect crust & incredible flavor. I certainly agree that this is top-tier pizza.
Beyond the food, the service was outstanding. The staff was friendly, attentive, & incredibly accommodating, especially to our family. We really appreciated how welcoming & patient they were with our toddler, which made the dining experience enjoyable & stress-free.
Gigi's delivers on both phenomenal food & great hospitality. Highly, highly recommended!
My son ordered two fries, they looked good & the texture was great. The only problem was the taste, it kind of tasted like they might need to change their french fry oil. That's never happened before in my experience.
Walking around Pointe-Claire Village, can make a girl real hungry.
Gigi Pizzaria has been on my'Need to Try' list for a few months. It was recommended by a few friends. I haven't gone earlier because parking can be a little tough.
We were greeted by a very friendly lady & seated immediately. For a Wednesday lunch it was quite busy. We were lucky there was a booth still available.
The menu is not extensive, but there are more that enough selections. Ranging from a small selection of spaghetti lasagna to a large selection of subs & pizzas.
We had pizza. A 10''Deluxe' to be exact. It was loaded with cheese, mushrooms, green peppers, pepperoni, bacon, & onions. Holy moly. The sauce was light so the flavors of the toppings was able to stand out.
Only downside was that it was a bit wet under the crust which was a bit underdone. I didn't say anything because it was ok. I'm just very picky. My friend had a single topping pizza, 1/2 pepperoni & 1/2 capicollo, & nit was dry & perfectly cooked. Sometimes, when there are too many toppings the tendency is to stay a little wet on the bottom. It takes a long time for the mushrooms & peppers to dry out.
When I go back? Absolutely.
Place is small & old but very clean, wash rooms are small but again very clean. Being a little old gives it a great ambiance to sit & eat, again food five stars, staff always friendly.
