    I am a frequent solo diner and Gitanes is a place to get a wonderful dinner after a day of grinding! Hanger cut on the Steak Frites was amazing even with my “well-done” choice. The White Bronco was a refreshing cocktail and it definitely reminded me of acquitting things if they do not fit. The Sorbet was a nice dessert after feeling lethargic from the good food and good service. 5 big booms! 💥💥💥💥💥

    The service was outstanding. We were there for a business meal and we weren’t rushed at all. The server was just the right amount of attentive. The food was perfectly prepared. This is becoming one of my favourite restaurants.

    Wow ~ fondue night was super popular and for good reason ! The staff have this down to a fine art ~ making this a wonderful evening. We had reservations for 5:30 and got there a bit early which ensured that we were able to take advantage of Happy Hour ! We got a bottle of wine for half price to accompany our fondue meal. We opted for the fixed $69/person and found it was very worth it. Cheese fondue followed by a beef fondue and crowned with a lavish chocolate fondue. A classy evening that was fun ~ yes, totally delightful. I particularly liked that they dimmed the lights in increments throughout the evening ~ attention to detail. Wonderful service. Would highly recommend.
