Gia is a fantastic place to impress a date or host a business meeting. The food was excellent, the service genuinely friendly, and the beverage selection strong (they have a full bar).

Reservations are recommended, but solo diners can comfortably sit at the bar—perfect for a relaxed conversation with the bartender.

The ambiance is elegant yet comfortable, and the acoustics are surprisingly good, making it easy to actually talk without shouting.

I’ll definitely be back.

This place had not been on my radar but it is now!
I got to experience a wonderful 5 course tasting menu here and they knocked it out of the park
First of all I just love the ambiance when you walk in , reminded me of a European bistro right away, service was great friendly knowledgeable servers!
I knew I was in for a treat when the champagne was fantastic!
All the dishes were beautifully executed and delicious – great flavors!
The scallop risotto is all l’ve been thinking about!!!
These 2 women owned chefs have opened a beautiful place and with weekly menu changes they are changing the game in the cities
Definitely coming back to try more food
Parking- there is a small lot but also free street parking

I rarely feel compelled to write a review, but wanted to for this lovely spot. The atmosphere is cozy, charming, elegant, and I love that it’s not too big. It feels very intentional. The food was amazing across the board – we had the focaccia, bruschetta, and arugula for starters, then the rigatoni and cod for mains. Then the grapefruit champagne sorbet for dessert – which was FABULOUS. Menu changes weekly which means you know it’s fresh and seasonal. The service was absolutely phenomenal. We felt so taken care of, the team went above and beyond. I will absolutely be coming back!

A perfect restaurant any way you slice it! I’ve never had a bad bite and the service is warm and friendly. It’s a true neighborhood spot, and the owners seem to value running one really great restaurant rather than building a massive empire. Their menu is seasonal and changes daily, celebrating whichever ingredients are best that day. Excellent wine list and cocktails, too!

Bryan is an amazing bartender! I ordered ‘La Última Palabra’ and, having tried it in many different places, this was hands down the best version I’ve ever had. Bryan is a very talented mixologist and a true gem for this restaurant.

The atmosphere is so cozy and inviting. My only regret is that I didn’t start with his cocktails from the beginning! I will definitely be back to sit at the bar, enjoy some food, and try more of his signature creations. If you’re looking for a great spot with incredible drinks, make sure to grab a seat at the bar!

The service and cocktails were excellent. The descriptions of the food I ordered raised expectations of a great meal, but portions were small and the food uninspired. There are plenty of other nearby options for italian cuisine that provide a vastly better value.

Nice local Northern Italian menu and comfortable atmosphere. We started with the Bruschetta made with white beans… very nice balance of flavors. You order your entire meal up front but the wait staff does a great job of spacing courses and clearing. Service is above average. Nancy had the Ravioli verde which she loved. I had the Mezze Rigatoni. Both were beautifully plated and delicious. We also had the vegetable friti which included lightly coated and fried broccoli, squash, and zucchini pieces with a side of aioli dip. We finished with a lemon torte dessert with vanilla ice cream. Pricing is about what you would expect for this level of quality. About $300 including two nicely priced bottles of wine. They source local seasonal ingredients and change their menu weekly. There is parking on street and a dedicated lot next to the restaurant. Give it a try… you won’t be disappointed if you like wonderfully prepared Northern Italian food.

Great opening night at Gia! My wife and i had a great meal.

Terrific service from the moment we walked in; we were early but our table was ready. Our server Chris was prompt and gave a great rundown on the menu. We started with cocktails and some light nibbles.

More courses and wine and dessert later, we walked out happy and well fed. Delicious! We live in the area, and can’t wait to come back!

I felt wowed by this place! The homemade stuffed pasta was ‘to die for’! The pasta was soft (yet al dente), flavorful (& salted appropriately) and the caramelized onions were cooked perfectly. It looked like they had 4 chefs (in white coats) working this evening (employing some serious talent!). I also thought my appertivo cocktail was lovely. (I ordered the Americano – red wine, bitters and soda). Their seasonal menu included fun “snacks,” aka small plate appetizers, which this week included warmed, herbed olives. We couldn’t leave without ordering desert and the panne cotta and affogato ice cream (vanilla + espresso shot) were delicious without being cloyingly sweet. If you like Italian and French cuisine, check out Gia!

Wow, absolutely fantastic!! Food was delicious. Menu rotates weekly. We had the octopus salad, tagliatelle with ragu, spaghettini with bottarga, the trout. Every dish was really, really good! Service was absolutely phenomenal. Server (Shelly?) knew the menu extremely well and made our mouths water with her descriptions of each dish. It’s taken the top spot as our new favorite Italian spot in the Twin Cities!
