Gigi

French$$

A slinky spin-off bar to big sister Entrecôte.

Jason M. Jones and Brahman Perera launched this French-influenced fantasy as a late-night kick-on for their restaurant Entrecôte across the road. It’s a fever dream of velvet, tassels, chandeliers and gilt-framed oil paintings, with classic Gallic drinks and snacks to match. Sunday afternoons are for “High Tea a la Gigi” with two hours of free-flowing bubbles.
