La pizza est très bonne nous avons essayé la spéciale gigi, le service est rapide, j'ai vraiment aimé & je vais y retourner pour essayer les sous marin
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.
I've not been to Gigi's in quite some time, not being near Pointe Claire village often, but always happy with anything I've ever ordered from poutines to subs to those amazing pizzas. The experience is one that brings me back to when my grandfather & then uncle would bring me there after a haircut many many moons ago, nostalgic & good feeling. Even if I am a tad large for the booths, I don't mind remembering how it was back then & just enjoying the moment. The staff is friendly & welcoming, I enjoyed having a nice hot coffee while my pizzas were being made. When I got home, they were still nice & hot & I love that the new boxes stayed intact for the drive home (as mentioned not really close to PCV at all)
Keep up the great work, I will try to come by more often!!
Disappointed with their sub sauce, or lack of.
We confirmed the Gigis'special' sauce was like an Italian vinaigrette when it was JUST oil & salt. No vinegar, no spices. Just oil.
I had to whip up a quick vinaigrette with what I had but it did not hit the spot.
Will not be ordering again.
The best pizza in the West Island. It is of a much higher quality than the standard chains, which is great, but of course makes it a little more expensive. It is a cash-only restaurant, & they have an ATM inside if you are in a pinch. The best place to stop for lunch or dinner if you're driving down Lakeshore, or for dinner at home. I highly recommend Gigi Pizzeria!
We've been dining at Gigi Pizzeria for 20 years, & while the pizza is still great, the fries have taken a serious nosedive in recent years. My son used to love their poutine & would order it every time, but now he won't even touch the fries-they're that lousy. Why the change in preparation? The old fries were a favourite, but the new ones just aren't cutting it. It's disappointing to see a longtime staple go downhill like this. Still, we'll keep coming back for the pizza, but I really hope they reconsider the fries situation!
