Such a great experience!!! Service is amazing, friendly and attentive! Pomegranate margaritas were so good! Food was good! Caprese salad and empanadas were great! Ribs were good! And the potatoes were phenomenal! Cafe Gigu will be a staple on our night out rotation!!

We visited Café Gigu for the first time and left absolutely impressed. The pistachio martini was, without exaggeration, one of the best martinis I’ve ever had — perfectly balanced between the rim flavor and the cocktail itself, smooth and delicious. The desserts were the perfect complement to the experience. But what stood out the most was the service — they made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. Definitely a place we want to come back to. ✨🍸

I absolutely loved this place! The food, the service, and especially the desserts were amazing. It’s definitely a hidden gem in East Boston and totally worth visiting. If you’re looking for delicious food and a cozy, welcoming atmosphere, this is the perfect spot for you.

The corn to share was perfect, the wings were incredible, and the pistachio cocktail became everyone’s obsession — it was absolutely delicious. But the best part of the night was definitely the desserts. They have something for everyone, and they were my favorite part of the evening. 😊

We went with some friends on Super Bowl Sunday, and the experience was wonderful. The owner makes you feel like part of the family and treats you with so much respect and love. Also, our server Luz was extremely kind, attentive, and helpful, always making sure we had everything we needed with a warm smile.

Overall, it was an amazing experience. This will definitely be our new go-to spot for get-togethers. Highly recommended — everyone should check it out!

The strawberry ceviche (sounds weird but it is amazing) and the arepa with burata and condensed milk are wonderful 😊! The atmosphere is low key, while feeling elegant; The staff is always super friendly and welcoming and drinks are good. Comparatively affordable too.

Ordered an octopus salad, a ceviche and a side of tostones for takeout. They charged me $6 and added TWO tostones in a small container and the order was $40+ which I find ridiculous for the snack size portion they gave us. 2 tostones for $6 is not a side, that’s robbery. I asked for a manager to call me back and I never received a call to discuss this matter. Will not be buying from here again.
