Gigi’s

At 138 Franklin Street in Greenpoint, Gigi’s keeps its proposition clear: rôtisserie cooking and an extensive wine list, with room for a quick drink at the bar or a longer meal with friends. The Fulgurances team describes it as a neighborhood spot, and the menu gives the rotisserie pride of place.

The chicken and the bottle list

The menu centers chicken from the rôtisserie, served with roasted potatoes and sauces. Starters, salads, cheese and charcuterie make it easy to build a smaller bar meal or a fuller dinner. The wine list is part of the reason to come, whether the plan is a glass and a bite or a table built around a bottle.

Planning a visit

Gigi’s lists dinner service Wednesday through Sunday and offers online reservations. Check the current menu and booking calendar before going; the kitchen’s listed dishes and hours may change. For groups of six or more, the restaurant asks guests to contact it directly.
