completely underwhelmed. The chickpea fritters were meh. The seafood dishes were just okay but nothing spectacular. The bread was downright hard, dense and disappointing. My fiance had just been a few months prior to that trip and said our visit was nothing like his first visit (which he describes as one of the best meals of his life). Everything was fine. The food was fine. The service was fine. The overall experience was fine. But it was nothing special and nothing that came close to qualifying the hype that surrounds this restaurant. This past Saturday, while on a walk around the west loop, my fiance and I hopped in right at 4:30 on a whim and managed to snag a table for an impromptu early dinner. It was like a completely different experience. G&G keeps a revolving menu of items, but they also change the way they create their permanent items. So the chickpea fritters that we ordered last year were nothing like the chickpea fritters they were serving this time. We orde
red 5 items between the two of us, and could easily have stopped at 4 with very full bellies. Course 1: Chickpea fritters - absolutely amazing. A great mixture of okra and tomatoes with the chickpea and heavenly crispy blocks of goat cheese were on top. Absolutely delicious! Course 2: Grilled Baby Octopus - another delicious hit. The chefs at G&G have this amazing ability to push a taste to the limit. And the grilled baby octopus pushes the flavor of lemon all the way to the point of extreme, without going over the line to make it overpowering. The pistachios added a delicious crunch that went well with the charred flavor of the octopus. And the lemon tartness brought all the other flavors together and smoothed them out. Course 3: Driver Scallops - this may have been the only mediocre dish of the night, and by mediocre, I mean it was only very good

instead of amazing. I've had perfect scallops in a variety of places, and these scallops were perfectly cooked but there was nothing special or unique about this dish. The kimchee and the rapini is a tasty accompaniment, but to be honest, I was tempted to leave the rest of the dish when the sepia came out and just focus on the new and shiny dish at the table. Course 4: Grilled Sepia - I had never had sepia prior to this visit and it has a very firm consistency similar to octopus but the taste of this dish was so different, we had no problem with ordering both. The tomato base of this dish was very tangy and tasty and again there was the presence of extreme lemon. It was tough to choose a favorite, but I think this might just be my favorite of the night. Course 5: Charred Pork Belly - This dish was just for my fiance, but I tried a bit of the flavor and it was excellent. A nice robust charred flavor that was not too hearty or overwhelming. He loved the dish. Pork belly by natur
e is extremely fatty so he left a good deal of the fat pieces left on the plate, but he certainly licked the rest of it clean. Service was wonderful. We were at a communal table 4 unrelated parties of 2 all seated together, but it still somehow felt intimate enough for just me and my fiance even though we were sitting next to each other. It was a friendly atmosphere and we enjoyed conversation between ourselves, as well as with the other patrons at the table. Our waitress was very helpful with advice and recommendations. The chefs sent out some complimentary fries with various dipping sauces for the table (to promote the social atmosphere) but the ladies in the corner seemed to think it was only for them and sequestered the plate between the two of them. Clearly, they weren't locals. 5 courses and 2 drinks came out to under $100 for the two of us and we easily could have gone with one less item. I was so happy to finally experience the food that lived up to the hype at Girl an
