Located on Chemin du Bord-du-Lac-Lakeshore, in the heart of Pointe-Claire’s charming old village, Gigi Pizzeria is a true local institution. Since 1970, this family-run restaurant has been known for its generous pizzas and tasty subs, attracting both regulars and curious visitors looking to satisfy their hunger between strolls along the waterfront.

At Gigi, pizza reigns supreme. Made with a thick, fluffy crust and generously topped with fresh ingredients, it’s the ultimate indulgent snack bar-style pizza. Classics like the Deluxe or All-Dressed are customer favorites—and for good reason. The portions are hearty, the sauce drips deliciously down your fingers—everything you want in a great pizza! If you still have room, don’t miss their subs, sprinkled with Gigi’s signature spice blend. Fast and friendly service rounds out an experience that’s simple yet consistently satisfying.

The interior of Gigi exudes a retro vibe, staying true to its 1970s roots. The vintage burgundy booths and wooden accents create a warm, homey atmosphere. Of course, people don’t necessarily go there for the decor. While some might find it a bit dated, for many, that’s exactly what gives the place its unique charm.

In addition to dine-in service, Gigi offers delivery and takeout options, covering several areas of the West Island, including Beaconsfield and Kirkland. We’re highlighting it because it’s a true West Island institution known for its consistency. The restaurant, featured on our list of the best spots in the area, doesn’t reinvent the wheel but delivers a nostalgic experience that hits just right—and the pizza is genuinely delicious!

Enjoy your visit!
