Went to Gigi's in Greenpoint on a Saturday evening to watch one of the World Cup matches. It is a French restaurant with a menu centered around chicken, along with an extensive wine list.
The dining room is on the smaller, more intimate side, but they also have a spacious backyard with metal tables and chairs, plus a large television. We got a table right in front of the screen, which was a great spot to watch the game.
We ordered a bottle of Beaujolais rosé from France, which was perfectly chilled and very reasonably priced at $48. Since we had eaten beforehand, we did not order dinner, but the smaller plates coming out to nearby tables looked very appetizing. The by-the-glass wine list was also well priced, with most options under $20.
The service was warm and friendly throughout. Our server was French, which added to the authentic atmosphere and was a nice touch. Overall, Gigi's was a great place to enjoy the match over a bottle of wine, and I would definitely come back to try the food and perhaps another game! read more
