Why they're an Icon

  • Award icon

    MICHELIN Plate

    2022

From the OpenTable editors: Gia crushes the meat-free Italian game with luscious housemade pastas that spotlight seasonal Ontario ingredients, including one epic tonnarelli tartufo with cashew truffle butter sauce. But the space seats just 35, so you’ll want to plan ahead to sample the restaurant’s plant-based masterpieces and organic wines.

    I went to Gia to explore the plant based menu and the food was great. Really enjoyed all my courses. I was a little underwhelmed by the mocktails as they seemed to be syrup and soda based type drinks - nothing special and certainly did not compare to the excellent quality of the plant based foods. The service was ok but we kept having to ask for water which was annoying. It would have been preferred to have a bottle placed at our table so we could serve ourselves, rather than the server to pour it as she was not sufficiently attentive to us (party of 4) downing our water over and over. Overall Gia was a nice treat and I enjoyed my evening very much.

    The ambience is gorgeous. The food is delicious, as someone with no dietary restrictions, you do not notice there is no meat on the menu. Delicious!!

    Cosy upmarket atmosphere. Staff were the perfect level of attentiveness, made sure you had water and cleared plates without feeling like they were intruding. Our server made us feel welcome and attended to our needs despite it being busy (every table was full!). The food was amazing, we had a pasta dish and the pasta was cooked perfectly. The butter/spread that comes with the focaccia is an unsung hero in my opinion, something so easy to get right but hard to excel and this creamy spread was absolutely delicious. The pacing of the meal was great, we did not feel rushed nor did we feel like we were waiting for our food. Overall a great experience, always highly recommend to any veggie or vegan (or anyone who is happy to eat more plant based!).

    Enjoyable experience. Good effort with plant based salmon, but not excellent. Appetizer and desserts very good. Wish you had 9 Oz. Glass of wine. Wil return and also recommend.

    Had a lovely time at Gia, I've been wanting to try this place for a while and they didn't disappoint. Their vegan salmon was so impressive, it actually tasted so much like salmon (taste and texture) that I had a bit of a hard time eating it as a longtime vegetarian! Their cocktails were very tasty too. Had the whipped ricotta, it was good but I found the bread too hard (very crispy). And the gnocchi was very nice too, very nice sauce. Portions a little small and restaurant tables were sat too close together, but overall enjoyed my experience.
