“ We had a fantastic evening at GiGi’s. I wanted to take my Mother out to celebrate a belated Mother’s Day and it was a wonderful time and my Mother was thrilled. Everything was perfect, food, drinks, surroundings and ambiance. What really made it a pleasure was the wonderful wait staff, everyone who tended to us was very pleasant and happy to chat with us. Thanks so much for the wonderful hospitality and experience. We look forward to coming back soon. ”
“ Good atmosphere and plenty of space in this restaurant. Service was spot on, the tomato& red pepper soup was . Mum's carbonara pasta wasn't cooked enough for her taste but overall food was decent. The music was good and the interior of the restaurant looks posh but in a good way. Definitely recommended while in the area. ”
“ The Italian food here is absolutely delicious, and the prices are fantastic. The restaurant has a modern, clean vibe, and the staff are incredibly friendly and attentive. We traveled from New Zealand to meet up with our Scottish family, and this was the perfect spot for a great meal together. Would definitely dine here again. ”
“ First time eating here at Gigi's, and it was excellent. Very nice decor, and the staff were extremely pleasant and attentive. The food was delicious, the portions were filling, and the cocktails were superb... we'll definitely eat there again! P.S. Please allow extra time if driving, as the parking here is almost non-existent. We had to drive around the side streets for over 10 minutes trying to find a parking spot, and then had to walk for 5 minutes to get to the restaurant, so it may be a good idea to have an umbrella if rain is forecast. ”
“ Delicious Italian food & amazing atmosphere. As soon as we stepped into the restaurant we were greeted with friendly staff, great atmosphere, and most importantly amazing smells of great food. My husband had the mortzarella fritta starter which is great. For mains the Gigi pizza, great pizza with nice crispy dough. The middle of the pizza rather soft, but still great quality pizza. I had the seafood arancini al granchio (crab & lobster) which was amazing! For mains I had the paccheri frutti di mare (seafood pasta) which was one of the best seafood pasta I have ever had - delicious! The only downside is the parking space, no parking on-site. With instructions from the restaurant, we parked 5 minutes away at a local football ground parking lot. ”
“ Lovely Italian on the outskirts of Edinburgh. Atmosphere and staff very welcoming and very accommodating. Luis was very lovely! Food was fantastic, I would recommend the sausage pasta, and make sure you grab yourselves the goats cheese focaccia. Although we’re not from around here, we will return whenever we visit Edinburgh. 10/10! ”
“ Very nice place with a lovely atmosphere. Service very good, perfect with all the details. Drinks menu awesome, a lot of choices. The starter is very big. The othe food wasn't our taste but everything else was very good. Will be back for pizza. ”
