   From the exciting moment of walking in, to the not so exciting moment of walking out, Bar Gigi was magical. Service, food and atmosphere was nothing short of perfect. THANK YOU Bar Gigi for an incredible experience!

   Had a lovely experience here. Every morsel of food consumed during this visit was unique and delicious. Service was examplary - from their recommendations on menu choices to their attention to detail. Stellar wine list. Well worth the wait for a reservation.

   The food was delicious, drinks were tasty and the service was great. The fried boconccini, prawn toast and charred cabbage were my favourites.

   We were very excited to try this restaurant. Our party of 4 arrived a few minutes early and our table wasn’t ready so we received a glass of Prosecco while we waited which was nice. Our waitress was very outgoing and service was great. The crispy sunchokes were delicious as well as the feature pasta. Prawn toast was great. The beef ribs had good flavour but were difficult to eat and share even though we put two orders in for 4 of us. There was barely any food! The pork was cooked just right and there was enough to share this time. We opted out of dessert as we didn’t feel it was worth it. To be frank, the food was wonderful but the quantity was lacking. Paying $30 for 8 small (but delicious) pieces of pasta didn’t leave our group feeling content. We have eaten at many high end restaurants in Calgary (Ten Foot Henry, Salt and Brick, Major Tom’s, Rouge and Pizza Culture just to name a few this past 6 months) and sadly likely will not recommend Bar Gigi restaurant for the value factor.

   Had a great first date here last night. It's an intimate spot that's cozy and small. Tons of mood lighting sets the vibes. I wonder what they do with the huge patio in the summer. We ordered a few dishes to share: Hamachi Scallops in crudo, yuzu kosho and lime Beef Rib in this sick semi-sweet sauce Spaghetti 🍝 with duck confit The scallops and beef dishes were amazing. Would order each of them again. The spaghetti dish was good but didn't love it as much. We also each got one drink. The bill was ~$120 with a tip. Felt fair as service was good and attentive.

   Personally I think Bar Gigi is overrated. Small, dark with blaring music. Food is subpar, especially for the price. The staff are friendly and personable.

    Another outstanding experience at Bar Gigi! The mussels and scallops are dreamy with just the right amount of acidity that makes the dishes pop. Love the prawn toast and the charred cabbage is over the top! Second time visiting and received the same impeccable service. Thank you!
