GIA

Gia - Review - La Condesa - Mexico City - The Infatuation

"Gia, the new sister restaurant of Cana, nails that elusive middle ground: the Italian spot is casual enough for a weekday lunch with kids (the neapolitan pizzas are a hit), but grown-up enough for date night, thanks to solid dirty martinis and a tight wine list. It’ll make you feel comfy from the get-go—wood-paneled booths inside, shelves lined with natural wine, and a sprawling sidewalk setup built for people-watching. The menu dives into Italian comfort with just enough of a modern edge: buttery almejas chione gratinadas pack a chile kick under a crisp panko shell, and the potato pizza is loaded with gruyère, lard, and a drizzle of spicy honey." - Guillaume Guevara
