Excellent evening before the theatre. Staff were very attentive. Food was excellent. Venue is lovely. We were given a perfect table towards the corner with an amazingly view of the CN Tower. We were early but the restaurant was quiet for our party to hear the conversation comfortably. We would love to return!

The food is delicious, very flavorful, cooked to perfection and elegantly curated in the presentation. The bistro is warm and cozy, classy jazz music in the background is not too loud and allows for enjoyable conversations. The service was on point, attentive but never too pushy. Can’t wait to go back and try more dishes. Highly recommended

Our family had a reservation at GIA, but at the last minute, our two younger teens decided to join us. Even though the restaurant was fully booked, the management/owner went out of their way to accommodate the change. Their effort allowed us to all dine together, turning the evening into a truly special family get-together. On top of being together, the food was absolutely incredible—it added so much to the experience! Thank you, GIA, for going above and beyond to make it a memorable family night. We’re so grateful for your kindness and hospitality!
