Gigi's

"If you work at a company where coworkers start planning their holiday party outfits in September, you need that party to be at Gigi’s. The French bistro in Hollywood is a total scene—one where the looks and the entrances are just as important as the food on the table. That said, it’s a very solid menu. Plan for tartare, steak frites, and several rounds of martinis. Capacity: For large group inquiries, email info@gigis.la" - brant cox, nikko duren

"Gigi’s is a sceney French place on Sycamore where you’ll be treated to a night filled with great burgers, oysters, and steak frites. We recommend showing up a little thirsty. A night of lounging around on their string-lit patio or intimate dining room with plushy green booths, sipping gin martinis, snacking on tartare, and listening to a table of agents next to you scheming how to get ayahuasca to Tulum next week is exactly how we want to be partying right now." - brant cox

"If you want to eat French food, but also party late into the night, grab a booth at Gigi’s. An evening at this sceney French place in Hollywood will be filled with oysters, burgers, and delicious steak frites, but to make the most of it, we recommend showing up a little thirsty. Lounging around on plush green booths, sipping martinis, snacking on tartare, and listening to a table of influencers complain about how they had to wake up at 10:30am recently is the exact kind of entertainment you need after a hellish week." - brant cox, sylvio martins, arden shore

"It wasn’t a text or even a well-written email. Two years of dating and you just got dumped via a public Tiktok. Time to heal your bruised ego at Gigi’s. This French spot in Hollywood is, by all local definitions, a scene that rivals most Teen Choice Awards spillover rooms. You’ll spot tipsy influencers, their tipsier agents, and 11 different versions of Sydney Sweeney—none of whom are actually her. At Gigi’s, slinking up to the bar for a well-made martini and an incoming order of fries is a power move. " - brant cox

"Gigi’s is a sceney French bistro in Hollywood where you’ll find entertainment execs, perhaps a celebrity, and plenty of oysters, burgers, and delicious steak frites on every table. We recommend showing up a little thirsty. A night of lounging around on their string-lit patio, sipping martinis, and listening to a table of agents scheming how to get ayahuasca to Tulum next week is far more healing than you’d expect. We love the briny Wilmot (gin, dry vermouth, and pickled ramp), but if you really want to turn things up a notch, go for the espresso martini with vodka, coffee liqueur, cocoa nibs, and espresso." - Sylvio Martins, Brant Cox, Nikko Duren, Garrett Snyder
