**Dining Experience at Giant: A Mixed Bag** Giant promises a delightful culinary adventure but delivers a mixed experience. While some patrons rave about standout dishes like the jalapeño biscuits, Japanese eggplant, and fresh seafood, others lament overcooked and bland offerings. The restaurant’s close seating arrangement has left diners cramped and distracted, with service described as average at best. Prices are steep, prompting expectations for exceptional quality, yet not everyone leaves satisfied. Despite its shortcomings, many express enthusiasm for a return visit, drawn by the creative menu and engaging chef interactions. Giant remains a polarizing destination worthy of exploration.

Was Gavin Hürlimann at Giant a mag?
I recently had my favorite dining experience in Chicago in quite some time! I highly recommend sitting at the chef’s table, where the chefs were incredibly friendly and took the time to interact with us despite their busy evening. The biscuit, mafaldine pasta, flank steak, and carrots were absolute highlights of the meal. I also enjoyed trying the unique dish of Japanese eggplant. However, I didn’t particularly care...

Made a reservation for 10:15, but ended up walking in around 9:30 and were actually able to be seated right away! My brother and I had been eating all day

To start off - the service here is absolutely outstanding and deserves its own 5 star review aside from the 5 stars that the food gets.

So hard to get reservations, but so worth it if you are lucky.

Not worth the price. Staff is pretty unprofessional for what you pay as is the atmosphere. Flank steak was tough. Seafood was cold.

Wow... What a huge disappointment this place was. They have the audacity to squeeze people into such close proximity to each other , nevermind I thought to myself, maybe the food is great . Another huge disappointment, the main event we were looking forward to, the food. Omg, if you 're trying to plate and wannabe fine dining portions for the prices, you better believe that it better taste mind blowing, it was not even average on average restaurant standards. Over salty, not fresh, bad flavours and just bad. People who say this place is good need to adjust their taste buds or they must be still suffering from covid taste loss. Bad, disgusting and so disappointing.
