American Restaurants near Comox

“Where do I start. I spent a quick weekend in Comox and Gigi's was on my bucket list, and I'm so glad it was. It should be on everyone's bucket list. I dined here twice for late night dinner. Probably ate my yearly quota of oysters between the 2 days, but the staff were so fun, friendly and knowledgeable. They were super busy both nights but still took the time with each order and customer to make everyone feel at home. It was thanks to the care of the oyster shucker supreme there that I finally found the name of oysters I like, instead of just ordering anything like I normally do. The food from the kitchen really highlighted the skill and care that went into pairing the ingredients together. It wasn't just food, it was, pardon the cheese, a culinary journey. But that's just the vibe there. I chose to sit at the bar and it was a great way to make conversation with others, especially when dining solo. Like one big communal, family table.But more on the food! The crudo was super fresh and just that drizzle of oil balanced raw+oily nicely. If I wasn't obsessed with oysters, that would have been my go to raw starter. The shrimp roll was like a delicious cloud of creamy saltiness, and the caesar salad? I get why it's nicknamed the best caesar in Comox. The smoked salmon rillette had just the right amount of oil to keep the salmon together on the crostini and every bite was a joy, without fear of any soggy mess.Aside from oysters I do also have a soft spot for seafood chowder (I did a literal tour along the Irish coast just trying chowders one year), and despite having eaten so much already, I did not feel overwhelmed. Full, yes, but not that bad kind of full. The chowder was just perfect to end the night. It reminded me of the Irish chowders I had. And it's always a treat when food brings you back to good memories.1,000 compliments to the chef!Kid-friendliness: For an upscale place, it was nice to see families dine in and be warmly welcome.“
