Gigi’s Pizza

It’s good but like all pizzerias; get the whole pie.
Show up non peak hours and get anything less; you will not be happy. Nobody buys by the slice certain times; so the pizza hung out a while before reheating.

This is the first review I have ever left on Unilocal but i feel it’s necessary. Tonight I had a Buffalo chicken wrap and it was absolutely DISGUSTING. The chicken was chewy, the lettuce was soggy, it was an overall disappointment. Every time i decide to give in and give this place another try i immediately regret it. My mom as chicken francese which was equally as bad. The sauce was watery and there were so many lemon seeds every time she took a bite all she chewed on was seeds. I will never eat another bite from this joke of a place.

Well let’s just say this is my second time coming here. The pizzas are fairly good I enjoy them very much.

We order from here at least once a week. The pizza when ordered well done is the best in town.

I Always stop by here when im in the area, i love the staff almost as much as i love the pizza! The owner is always very friendly he always greets the customers. The staff always makes my orders exactly how i want them and they remember. The baked ziti is amazing too!

What can I say. Everything on the menu here Is good. The owner is very sociable and gives you great tasting food at a low cost. Delivery gets to my house in less than 35 minutes. I would highly recommend them.

I’m a regular at this pizzeria since I work in the area. The owner has a great personality and always makes you feel welcome with a loud greeting as you step inside. Pizza is reasonably priced and it taste’s great. I recommend the pizza and the chicken rolls. The Caesar salad slice or the Chicken Alfredo slice are also great if you are looking for something different.

By far, the best pizza in Whitestone. The only place I go to!

Excellent pizza! Wonderful staff! Owner is an amazing person I come here with my family at least once a week!

One of Whitestones best kept secret this little slice of heaven is to die for. Gigi’s pizza has hilarious and kind staff as well as an immaculate place to eat. There pizza is delicious but what keeps you coming back for more is there speciality slices. I personally recommend there Caesar salad slice or my favorite there vodka slice (pizza made with vodka sauce!)

I love this place. It’s the best pizza in Whitestone! I’ve been coming here since I moved into the area when I was 11. Everything is always fresh! don’t bother going anywhere else for pizza in Whitestone bc Cascarino’s and pizza chef are terrible. Gigi’s never disappoints me!

Get the spaghetti and meatsauce. Oh My Goodness. Delicious. Bravo.

I love Gigi’s, I’ve been coming here once in a while since I was a kid. The people are friendly and the pizza is absolutely the best! I don’t really order anything other than pizza. Their tomato sauce always has the right amount of tart and sweet, its simply the best. whenever people out-​of-​state ask me where’s the best pizza in NY. I don’t say Manhattan or Brooklyn, I say Gigi’s!

Sadly this place is off my menu list. Of the three times I have ordered food. ALL THREE TIMES THERE HAS BEEN A MISTAKE !! This time was classic. The order was made and charged for all items. Yet the order came without the 2 liter soda that was billed. The Calzone was plain not with ham which is how it was ordered. The pizza was lukewarm at best. So from ordering the delivery it arrived shy about 10 min of being an hour wait. The Delivery guy gave me the order and said thanks and treated himself to a nice tip without even asking if I wanted change. The soda came 30 minutes after the meal was done. Very sad and poor service. You should close and stay closed.

Enjoy coming here for there pies. Great people there. Always enjoy talking w frank when dining there. Thank you

Growing up, I was always taught never to call another persons cooking «disgusting». However, after tasting the pasta and SEVERAL appetizers from Gigi’s, I must go against morals that have been hammered into my head since I was a little girl…
The food that I ordered :
Linguini with white clam sauce: some of the clams were undercooked (as in. They were SLIMEY even though they were in the pasta) The «sauce» was nothing more than warm salt water. Absolutely horrid.
Baked clams: ritz cracker crumbs soaked in clam brine.
Mussels: tasted like they were boiled in hot garlic water with a few squirts of ketchup
«Buffalo wings»: Have your parents ever washed out your mouth with soap for swearing? Mine did. The «buffalo» wings I had from Gigi’s tasted Like soap. Not even exaggerating. Also, I had to put quotations around «buffalo» because the wings I received were SWEET. it was some kind of barbecue sauce mixed with hot sauce.
I didn’t even bother to finish my food.
I haven’t had the pizza here, but after my experience with my order, I can’t say I’ll ever get around to trying it.
TLDR; the food here is PUTRID. Like absolutely DISGUSTING. save your time/​money

I have never set foot in this restaurant but I guess I was feeling bold (or just super hungry) and I decided to order thru Seamless as I had limited time to spare & they are close by. I’ve had good luck with most of the other Italian restaurants in the area so I figured I’d give them a shot.
Well, even as hungry as I was, it was one of the more disappointing meals I’d had in a while. I ordered Chicken Francese. Now usually when you order this at most places, it comes with pasta. The online menu didn’t mention any pasta, so I just assumed I’d get it. However, it was a lot cheaper than the other local places were charging for that dish. Now I know why. NO PASTA: (Ok, so that’s my own fault for making assumptions. But the meal… worst chicken francese I’ve ever had. It was like a bitter lemon sauce. I didn’t taste the buttery, winey goodness that is francese sauce. I added salt. I added garlic, I added butter. Just to make it edible, but still… deeply unsatisfying. All that and it arrived late. Remember I was in a rush?
All in all, the whole experience was sub-​par. Just to be fair, I will give them a second chance with a different dish & then I can update this. Maybe pizza or a hero? Whatever you do, don’t make assumptions about what is or isn’t included, don’t order delivery when you are in a rush, and most definitely stay away from their chicken francese!
I probably would’ve given them one star, but I liked the little bitty roll they gave me & the delivery guy was genuine & apologetic.

The pizza here is apparently hit or miss with a lot of people. It’s not as thin-​crusted as pizzerias in the area make it and it usually has sweet (but not too strong) sauce. Behind the counter are nice guys; if one of them starts interrogating you for not paying for a slice when you did already, it’s a joke.
More than anything, I’d say it stands out in an area surrounded by thin slices (pizzarama, cascarinos, etc) and mellow but sweet sauce.
I would say to at least try their pizza once. Oh, and ignore the reviewers who are giving ratings for this place’s linguini with clams or their mussels without having even tried the pizza… What kind of genius comes to a place like this for a fancy dinner?

Ordered from here three times and the first was great. Second time, I ordered the baked ziti again because it was so good, however, they took down the order wrong and instead of admitting their wrong and fixing it right there, had to go through the blame game before they offered a credit on the next order. Um. Ok.
So after several months, I decided to order again because their baked ziti really is great. A lot of meat and cheese with the pasta cooked perfectly. However, not sure if they were cooking clams or some seafood in the pan because the baked ziti tastes like some sort of shell fish. Clams, mussels, not sure. That’s the best description I can give. Like seafood.
From the other posts, ordered a chicken ceasar slice and the penne ala vodka slice as well and not impressed at all. Not sure if it was because it was a Sunday night but food did not taste good at all tonight.
Will give it one more try. Or should I?

Maybe it’s nostalgia, but Gigi’s is seriously one of my most favorite pizza places in Queens.
IMO, their sauce is really delicious and although their crust isn’t really all that thin or crispy, their cheese and sauce more than makes up for it. When I’m in the mood or need to carbo-​load before a big race, my go-​to is always 2 plain slices and an order of their spaghetti marina. Makes me hungry just thinking about it!
