🍝 Boston Italian Gem | Gigi’s Saltimbocca Steals the Show! 🥩✨

📍 Gigi 431 Columbus Ave, Boston, MA 02116 (That charming South End corner where the aroma of garlic and simmering tomatoes lures you in before you even see the sign!) 🍽️ The Bites That Stole My Heart (And Maybe My Willpower) 1️⃣ Saltimbocca di Vitello – Veal cutlet + crispy prosciutto = salty, tender perfection 🤤 (The kind of dish that makes you close your eyes after the first bite – sage butter sauce included, because why not?) 2️⃣ Beef Short Rib Ravioli – 4 plump pockets of slow-braised meaty bliss… why only 4?! 😭 (We see you, Gigi, teasing us with this small-but-mighty portion. Joke’s on you—we’re ordering two next time.) 3️⃣ Mussels – Swimming in a tomato-wine broth so good, you’ll declare it bread-dipping heaven 🥖 (Pro move: Order extra focaccia upfront. You’ll thank us later.) 🍷 Honorable Mention: Their Negroni list – because no Italian feast is complete without a bitter-sip appetizer. 💡 Pro Tips for the Ultimate Gigi Experience • Resy bookings = weekend lifesaver – This place is tiny (like, 12-tables tiny), and the secret’s out. Lock in your spot or risk crying into a takeout container. • "Slow service" = more wine time 🍷 – This isn’t fast-casual pasta; it’s slow-and-savor Italian. Embrace the pace, order another glass of Montepulciano, and pretend you’re in Rome. • Date Night Hack: Ask for the back corner table – dim lighting, checkered tablecloth, and zero chance your ex walks in. • Leftover Strategy: That saltimbocca sauce? Take it home for next-day pasta. No shame. #BostonItalian #SouthendEats #DateNightBoston #ComfortFood
