"Who made the weekends the date night standard? As one of the best restaurants in Atlanta, Gigi’s makes a solid case that the best date night is any day they’re open (which is Friday-Tuesday). Red gingham tablecloths, colored holiday lights, wax-covered candelabras, and randomly incorporated plastic green vines feel playfully cliche at this Italian restaurant in Candler Park. And with only a few, tightly packed tables, which all give a front-row view to the chefs pan-tossing pasta, it still exudes an intimacy you can’t find anywhere else in the city.
