Big Steak Energy & Fresh Lobster Vibes this Weekend at Il Giglio! ✨
Are you ready to share? Or are you ready to look your partner in the eye, say “I love you, but back off,” and eat the whole thing yourself? No judgment here. 😂
Here is what’s dropping on our special chef’s menu this weekend:
🥩 The “Can We Share?” Tomahawk
A massive, juicy Tomahawk steak cooked to perfection. It comes flanked by golden truffle fries (yes, we went fancy), two signature house sauces, and a crisp house salad to make you feel healthy. It’s technically “ideal for sharing,” but we won’t tell anyone if you fly solo on this mission.
🦑 The “Jet-Black Luxury” Tagliolini
We are serving up rich, dramatic black squid ink tagliolini pasta tossed with a stunning, premium wild-catch fresh lobster. It’s decadent, it’s fresh, and it looks just as good on camera as it tastes on the fork.
Whether you are a die-hard meat lover or a seafood fanatic, we’ve got your cravings covered. Fish or meat—at Il Giglio, we have it all. 🇮🇹
📅 This Weekend Only. Space is limited, but our appetite isn’t.
