Gigi's Southern Table

This was my first time trying authentic Southern food. I liked the ambience and different seating arrangements in different rooms. Even though we had not reserved a table, we were lucky to get a seating. I tried their French onion soup and the seafood bouillabaisse (a mixture of shellfish, shrimps, fish and sausages). Both the items were tasty but a bit salty for my taste. It may be that the Southern fare is generally salty. The garlic bread that came with the main dish was delicious and I ended up ordering for a second helping. If you enjoy the Southern food, then this is the place you should try

This place to me seems like a hidden gem. The food was so excellent and fresh and hot. I had the Shrimp Carbonara and it was really done nicely with sausage instead of bacon with peas with just a nice cheese flavored sauce. My son loved the Cajun Chicken and his mother had the Ahi Tacos. We had French onion soup and they have a really special Gumbo that was just so refreshing. They have outside dining, a bar inside, in addition to fancy inside dining on nice padded chairs that were like home furniture. The staff were so friendly too.

Had a wonderful dinner at Gigi’s. The staff was polite and they accommodated our request to be in a place where we can hold our meeting without much distraction. We ordered the calamari as our appetizer and it was extremely good! I ordered the steak caesar salad as my main dish and I would say they cooked the steak just as I requested. The flavors of the steak,salad where on point and enjoyable to the very last bite. Thank you Gigi’s Southern Table for enhancing our meeting with your warm welcome and fantastic food.

We were out in Happy Valley visiting the area and wanted to dine somewhere besides The Waffle Shop or mediocre food. I read the reviews on GIGI’S and headed there around 3 pm Wednesday. Nice brick exterior and over the top interior filled with upholstered wing chairs, post beam ceiling, fireplaces and over the top furniture. CAMERON approached the table, great personality and took our order, contributed his faves and kept tabs on our table. I ordered the Shrimp & Grits with Tasso gravy full of spinach, tomatoes and chunks of ham swimming around in the super flavorful broth. OMG, great choice. 5 Tiger shrimp topped the grits and a bowl of goodness! My partner had the house burger up the bun crumbled into a messy heap. We decided to order the roasted peach salad. Do skip the biscuits, $4 for 4 but dry and hard. See photos. The roasted pumpkin ale was oh so refreshing. Hannah served some of the plates and was super nice. Stop by and try their specialties. Kudos to the chef, I didn’t get his name, but he MADE IT all possible.

This place centers around southern style cooking and has a beach theme going for decorations. I got the mascarpone ravioli, which was fantastic. The biscuits are cooked perfectly and go really with soup. My wife got the gumbo and I was not impressed. It had no seafood in it and thyme completely overpowered the entire bowl. I ordered a Paloma and there was almost no grapefruit in it. It tasted like vodka and lime, which is not a Paloma. Some things are great while other items are mediocre.
