One of the better places to eat in Carroll gardens for sure. The tables are small, so you need to be conscious of how much you're ordering at a time. But the food, drinks, and service are always incredible. You want to make sure you have a reservation, especially on the weekend.

I’m embarrassed to say that we’ve been in the neighborhood all this time and this was our first meal at this warm, welcoming restaurant. We sat at the bar and chatted with the bartender about cocktails while we watched him work his magic. And everything we had was delish! The special “winter salad” may be the best salad I’ve ever eaten, anywhere, and the spaghetti al limone was outstanding. We also had lovely glasses of red and white wine from a nice Italian selection. We will be back soon

Gersi is a wonderfully cozy Italian spot with truly amazing food — especially their homemade pastas and their simple-but-perfect lettuce salad topped with grated Parmesan.
Brooklyn Heights, Cobble Hill, Carroll Gardens, and the surrounding neighborhoods are genuinely lucky to have such well-established Italian restaurants with consistently great dishes, and Gersi is definitely one of them.
A charming, delicious staple worth returning to!

We had a wonderful experience at Gersi! I had my birthday party here and we were a large party of 13 people. The staff was extremely accommodating, even when I had to make changes to the reservation day-of. They were super friendly and attentive while we were eating and even set the table with cute little birthday cards! The food was DELICIOUS. We ordered a wide variety of items from the menu and nothing disappointed. I especially loved the lemon spaghetti, chicken parmesan, and tiramisu! Highly recommend this little spot.

Came for my birthday. I was running late and they still accommodated. I had big balloons and they were sooo sweet and didn’t mind. Everyone who served us and waited on us was sweeter than the next, impeccable impeccable service. We had a reservation to run to after and they were so hasty in the best way we needed. Food was delicious, lemonade was so tasty. Would definitely return.
I was looking for an authentic Italian experience and I found it! Handmade pasta and the BEST house sauces (lemon, cream, red - everything is uniquely delicious). Generous portions of crab and other proteins. Try the veal meatballs and mushroom bruschetta. Explore vegetarian options too!
They can sub today’s house pasta in most dishes which I love. Ask for the specials because they tend to have many off-menu options every day. Seating is somewhat intimate but never uncomfortable. The server was so attentive despite a full house on a weekend.

My son, husband, and I dined here last night. I apologize that I have to be honest. I asked for no meatballs for with my gluten free pasta because I am gluten intolerant. I mentioned it several times to the server. The dish came out with meatballs in it and it had to be sent back.Truly, I should have been comped for the mistake. Therefore, I did not get to eat with my son and husband. I told them to go ahead and enjoy their meal while it was hot. The tomatoes in the my Caprese salad were not ripe, poor quality, and hard. Tomatoes should be garden fresh, bright red, juicy, and tender in a Caprese salad. Towards the end of the meal, my son asked for bread to soak up some sauce on his plate. Bread obviously came with dinner, but we were never offered it throughout the meal. And one last thing. The grated parmesan cheese came out in a small ramekin and I had to ask for the cheese. This is an Italian restaurant. The cheese should be freshly grated on top of your food table side. With just a few tweaks and attention to detail, this would have been an amazing meal.

The black linguini blew me away. Best pasta I’ve had since my trip to Italy. So fresh, perfectly al dente, and rich in flavor. I cannot wait to come back!!!
