We dined at Geri's tonight and received excellent service from Meg. She was always available to serve us. I had the Mezzi Rigatoni Ragu. I was very delicious and a great portion. If you are interested in great food, great service and great atmosphere please eat at Geri's! Thank You Geri for a wonderful dining experience.

1/29/2025: A lovely spot for an evening out. Meg was our amazing server, so welcoming and accommodating. She had great recommendations that did not disappoint. The ambiance was cozy and inviting with several seating indoor/outdoor seating options. We enjoyed the fresh mozzarella appetizer and selected the spicy rigatoni with grilled shrimp and mezzi tagliatelle with meatballs and sausages entrees. Although everything was delicious there was not a wow factor. For dessert we each (yes I mean 1 dessert each!!) polished off affogato with a splash of Kahlua... now that was WORTH THE CALORIES!!

So delicious! We went with family for dinner. Everything was so delicious. We started with the bruschetta and the grilled veggies which were wonderful - really good olive oil. I had the tagliatelle bolognese (which was made house) and my husband had the clam pasta. We enjoyed it all. The location is small inside, but I loved the intimate feel and the ambiance. Our waiter was great and lots of good suggestions. We will be back.

Customer service is always A1 ! Very accommodating and efficient. To tier good for sure . It's so cute and low key right in the heart of downtown. I will literally just grab dessert most times when just b passing by . Definitely one of my frequent places to eat!!! Cute date night or just regular night to get dinner !

Had the pleasure of dining here a few times now. Its a cozy italian restaurant with a bar, tables, and a few outdoor tables. They enclose the outside tables in the winter to stay warm. Definitely make a reservation if you can otherwise you can be in for a looong wait. They do have a text system for making reservations that a real person answers so that does make it easy. Everything I have ever ordered here has been delicious, especially the carbonara! Great drinks, all the staff are very friendly and accomodating. I don't know how they can work in such close quarters sometimes so all the more respect to them! If I really want to have a delicious meal, celebrate something, or have a fancy date night without much effort, I would pick Gersi.

Came here one weeknight with co-workers as we all like Italian food. The reviews for this place were great and making a reservation was easy the same day, just a few hours ahead of time, which kind of worried us, as we figured if they were that good, it wouldn't have been so easy to get a same day reservation for four people. Well, we were wrong - this place was amazing! Service was excellent and friendly. The décor and atmosphere was romantic, quaint, and dimly lit. The menu was loaded with so many appetizing items! They make their pastas in-house and they do a fantastic job with them. The chicken parm was really good, pounded thin, but still very flavorful and moist. The sauce was excellent too. Their table bread was accompanied by cannellini beans with a spicy herb dressing, these were incredibly good! They have avery nice wine list too. And clearly we lucked out with the reservation because by the time we left, they were packed, inside and outside. Definitely suggest stopping in, but make a reservation!

Great spot - was packed on a Wednesday and somehow we were squeezed into a table. And happy we were. Tight quarters, people packed into little tables. Kind of dark, but in a pleasant way Friendly up front, quick to get us water and drinks. We loaded up on apps. Tried the garlic bruschetta, Buffalo mozzarella, shishito peppers, and bread service. The Buffalo mozzarella with tomato and basil was delicious. Perfect tomato. Really enjoyed it. Garlic bruschetta was meh. Single piece of bread with a pasty topping. Just bake garlic cloves! Would be so much better. Peppers were good and excuse to have a vegetable. Dinner was the lamb ragu and bolognese. Both ok. Not particularly impressed by either one, but good all the same. Had the grilled peaches and ice cream for dessert, which was great. Service was attentive, not particularly chatty, and kinda just all around. Overall just a good experience

From the outside, Gersi appears to be a small hole-in-the-wall, but the food, drinks, and service will surely blow you away. As you step inside, it's as if you just walked into a restaurant in the heart of NYC. Gersi did a wonderful job of capturing the charm and uniqueness that I'm sure their Brooklyn location embodies and brought it to us here in Richmond. It's quaint, moody, and has cute vintage chandeliers. I thought all of the cocktails I had were wonderful. I started with an espresso martini which was delicious, and then the Aperol Spritz, which was one of the best I have had - perfectly crafted. I did think it was odd that it came with a slice of grapefruit, rather than orange, but definitely not a deal breaker at all whatsoever. My husband had the Italian Paloma and the Gin Basil Smash, I liked them both but of the two, I would opt for the Gin Basil Smash. They serve complimentary focaccia with these marinated cannellini beans, which I know - random? But it is actually SO good I was thoroughly impressed! We also tried the classic bruschetta to start, which only really consisted of fresh chopped tomatoes and basil on top of grilled toast and you could really taste the freshness. It was really tart after a while, so we ended up leaving some on the plate. I would order it again, but would also be fine skipping it next time. For dinner I had the Spicy Rigatoni Vodka special and my husband had the Vongole. They were both delicious. My husband finished his plate and I had only a few bites that I ended up taking with me. I will say - you definitely have to like spicy to enjoy the dish I had because it is REALLY spicy. It was starting to wear on me towards the end. But overall, it was yummy! Next time we have our eyes on some other pasta dishes to try. The noodles are handmade in house and cooked al dente - put simply, perfect. We also enjoyed the Tiramisu for dessert and left nothing on the plate - it was great! Very creamy and chocolatey. The service throughout our visit was prompt and friendly. Our waters remained full which I always appreciate and we didn't have to wait for anything including our food, drinks, and other requests. We will definitely be back and cannot wait to try some other options on the menu at Gersi!

At this quaint little spot, the food is definitely the star. I'm talking main character. You will find prettier more aesthetically pleasing atmospheres, but this homemade pasta and the quality and flavor behind every recipe is unmatched. Perfect spot for a date or a girls night or a catching up with family over dinner. I recommend, parties of four or larger because you will want to taste everything. Be sure to make a reservation ahead of time... And if the weather is anything other than freezing, choose the patio. Definitely choose the patio. Inside can get rather crowded and loud very easily. I highly recommend eggplant rollatini, the pappardelle, and the squid ink pasta. The black kale salad was easily top 3 of the best kale salad I've ever tasted. For dessert, you will absolutely want the tiramisu & panino gelato - it's a literal ice cream sandwich. I wasn't a fan of either cocktail, so next time I'll have the wine.
