Review Summary

Overall, reviews of Trattoria Gio describe a welcoming spot with solid Italian fare and a lively Old Port ambiance, where many diners praise flavorful pizzas, pastas, and desserts and note friendly, attentive service when it runs well. The kitchen is credited with well prepared dishes like pasta and braised meats, and the atmosphere and value are frequently highlighted. At times, however, service is described as slow, disorganized, or inconsistent, with delays in seating, taking orders, or delivering courses and occasional order mix ups, and a few dishes arriving too salty or not as hot as hoped. When issues arise, staff or management are described as making efforts to rectify things, and many guests say they would return for the food and overall experience. In sum, Trattoria Gio is regarded as a solid, enjoyable option with strong flavors and a pleasant vibe, though service experiences can vary.

Une si belle expérience! Un des restaurants avec le meilleur rapport qualité-prix dans le vieux-port.

My daughter asked for the garlic pasta. & the oil they use doesn't taste good at all. BUT. They were so kind & didn't charge it to us. She asked for a Lasagna the same as me. & it is delicious. & well served. We were at the terrace & we enjoyed it a lot. Price is not that bad either to be in the Old Port

J'y suis allée pour la veille du jour de l'an. Je comprends que c'est une soirée occupée, surtout pour un restaurant dans le Vieux Port, mais... 1. Nous avons réservé une table pour 20h30, nous avons eu notre place à 21h. 2. Le personnel n'était pas courtoi (à l'exception d'une personne), ils nous donnaient tous & toutes l'impression qu'on les dérangeait : ma compagne s'est levée pour aller poser une question & les deux personnes ne levaient pas les yeux, elle a dû s'excuser de les déranger. La serveuse nous a apporté le mauvais plat & lorsque nous lui avons signalé, ça avait l'air d'être la fin du monde de retourner prendre ce que nous avions réellement commandé. 3. Il n'y avait plus de place parce que tout était réservé, mais au lieu de mettre une pancarte quelconque dans la porte, ils ne faisaient que crier dans la ligne que tout était réservé. L'information ne se rendait pas au bout de la ligne & le retard faisait en sorte que la porte est restée ouverte une bonne partie du repas, ce qui rendait la pièce froide. 4. La nourriture n'était pas excellente : des calmars frits mouillés, des pâtes qui goûtent l'eau... Bref. Ce ne fût pas la plus belle expérience.

Very nice restaurant with very good & attentive service. They allow dogs on the patio!!! Not many places do in the old port which sucks so this place was accommodating & they even offered our dogs water. We got pizzas & they were great.

Good food, good service, & great place for rest after old sight seeing at old port. Food is not super crazy but the quantity is good. *Venue: cute patio at old port plus a large space inside. We were looking for a place to eat lunch & rest after a long walk at downtown in a hot weather. The large space inside with good air conditioning lured us inside. The theme is Italian which was cute but they played latin music which was a bit unfit🙃 *Food: good portion, good quality, okayish taste. We ordered one arugula salad & pasta dish for two hungry people. We were quite satisfied with the portion. Salad taste was amazing. Pasta taste was very ordinary. We also ordered white wine, we got very small amount fod the price which was a bit disappointing 🙃 *Service: good & friendly staff but a bit slow service. *Price: I think it is a bit overpriced but so are the restaurants in the neighborhood.

Trattoria Gio is a very nice Italian spot in Old Port with very courteous staff & good food! I ordered the Caprese pizza & mojito & both tasted yum!! The mojito was a bit sour for my taste but the staff was able to accommodate my request & adjust it accordingly. Overall, good experience! 😊

La nourriture était excellente, pas de pain & c'était froid où nous étions assis, courant d'aire chaque fois que la porte ouvrait
