Great lunch spot

We have not ventured into the CBD for a very long time. Restaurant Week prompted us to and Gigi Rooftop was a second great discovery in the CBD for us.
Let me state at the outset that I was aware that St George's Mall is a difficult area for parking – and the Gigi website does not offer any tips. So beware of this logistical nightmare upfront.
We arrived at 18.45, and were greeted by a friendly hostess, and promptly seated. Service throughout the evening was attentive, and polite (our waitress who was just 1 week on the job was fabulous – pity I did not write her name down).
Gigi Rooftop is a beautiful space. It is well appointed, on a rooftop, with wonderful overhanging plants, and tall pots around, adding to the outdoor feel. The setting and ambience was just exquisite…. and the weather played it part.
I had the Smoked Franschhoek Trout Salad as a starter. It was very nicely plated, with fresh crisp greens. The amount of trout was on the stingy side, with only 3 slivers in and about the greens. My wife had the Calamari & Orzo Salad starter, which she raved about. I had a taste, and agreed.
The Linefish main was so good - well conceived with several elements operating in harmony. My wife’s steak was equally superb. It was a dry aged ribeye, done medium. Perfectly grilled, tender and juicy served with the best crispy fries. It was accompanied by the freshest of green beans, snappy and dressed with roasted almonds and feta.
The Churros and Chocolate Fondant to finish were fabulous too.
This is a highly recommended restaurant – and we will definitely return.
Awesome venue. Vibes and food
