Cyn CattAugust 12, 2013DIET BE DAMNED!!! Leave your calorie, carb counting in the car. Wonderful, fresh, a hint of Asian spice on every savory plate and desserts created by someone who really truly loves sweets.
Paula FreireAugust 17, 2013This is a very good place! It's affordable, you can sit on the bar and watch the cook's work. Try the Roasted Pork buns and the BBQ (it's a huge dish!). Pork Belly's Benedict is also a must try.
Laura ChavesNovember 8, 2013Cool ambiance- def. an urban chic spot. The fish market was really good & you have to try the rib sandwich. Fried rice was also spot on. Affordable prices too. Will have to go back for the nutella bar
Myrna PerezDecember 23, 2014EVERYTHING at this place is fantastic. Portions are a bit on the small side. Beef buns and duck buns are fire. Lamb lollipops are quite literally as succulent as lollipops (my faves).
Miami New TimesAugust 19, 2014Everything about the place is smart, starting with the lofty, industrial, urban-chic décor that bespeaks big city, late night, youth, energy, and fun. Read more
Dee NDecember 10, 2012Quick, convenient, & super tasty. Perfect after a full day of shopping or post-drinking munches. My faves: roast pork bun & the corn bread! Don't forget the $1 soft serve cones for dessert. #CPL8
Gabriela Araujo ZampinoDecember 15, 2015"Steak and eggs" (rice and noodles section) is delicious! Is a big plate so it can be a principal plate or to share!
lennartDecember 30, 2014Recommend the pork buns, the ribs, crispy dumplings or the spinach salad - all ridiculously good! Little watch-outs: pretty cold inside, not that affordable for big eaters.
Daniel Perez ValarinoSeptember 24, 2016What an amazing mix of asian food! Please if you see the Shrimp Buns on the menu, do not think about it! You could eat that all night long... TAAASTY!
A gem! Get the drumsticks, the octopus ( IT'S MARINATED IN PORK FAT), and the peach cobbler. Life changing. Service is great!
Francis UdlerDecember 30, 2013Food is fantastic. Buns are a must. Udon was great, you can also get the fried rice, cornbread and pad thai (is spicy). Fyi they charge for tap water.
Ollie MartinMarch 26, 2013Order several dishes for your party and share them out. If you're not sure, ask the waiting staff to help you order; they're really friendly and make great recommendations.
So... I hated the change of menu... But, I must say the mushroom bums are back and better than ever! The coconut shrimp udon is quite fabulous and this OG GIGI fan is back to happy! Beware: seasonal?
Don't let the no frills decorum fool you: gigi is leading the charge in Miami's up & coming midtown movement. Affordable and delicious, try the Duck fried rice, any pork bun, wash it down with a PBR.
Kam PerezDecember 31, 2014The pork buns are the next I've had anywhere. So are the brisket buns... though I've never had those anywhere else. The point is: order some buns!
EaterJanuary 23, 2013Since Gigi exploded onto Miami's dining scene two years ago, it has continued to serve delicious, inventive Asian-inspired dishes at bargain prices. [Eater 38 Member]
Loved this place's ambiance. Their food tastes fresh and delicious. Tried the roasted pork buns as suggested, they are truly amazing. End with the Gigi Nutella bar, it's a piece of heaven.
vane ⭐️March 23, 2015Buns buns it's all about the buns with shrooms, pork and BBQ brisket! + only place to get blue sake.
VanessaFebruary 18, 2013The sweet potato cheese cake is good! I liked it better than the GiGi bar. I'm not a hardcore chocolate fan. The steak &eggs were good, use the hot sauce!
The FeastJune 7, 2011It's hard to find late night spots that are this good. Order up any of the buns (but pork is arguably the best) or a noodle bowl but save room for the Gigi bar with nutella that can't be missed.- Jose is amazing!!!! Love that Gigi's realized how good their original recipe/dishes were! If it ain't broke don't fix it! Mouth is beyond happy!!!!
Brunch menu looks great. Tried the GOBS sandwich and some cornbread with honey bacon butter and both ROCKED! Also, our server was great!
Probably the best restaurant in Miami, or top 3. The cornbread is out of this world!
Magic hat 49 great beer, southern boy BBQ ribs, shitake mushroom and everything we shared is delicious! . It was 4 of us and we shared everything. That's the best way to eat here. Great value too.- Open til 5am, this has become a Design District staple for its killer pork buns and duck fried rice. Wash it all down with a PBR for a perfect end to a night of Baseling.
krisha mendozaJanuary 14, 2011bravo geeks: the chef is jeff mcinnis from top chef season 5! order: chicken crispy skin and blt with pork belly! if you get the nutella bar, put the strawberries on top for some magic!
Tyler ShapiroSeptember 12, 2011By the time we got here on Sunday they were out of half of the menu including some of the items I was dying for ( grilled corn ) but we still ordered a bunch and it was all amazing
Victoria BabunDecember 8, 2013Pork buns, Meatloaf I LOVED (must order). Best place for late dining. Fun, loud music playing. Hamachi was yum too.
DommaAugust 19, 2014Mini ice cream cone are the best... Amazing desserts and really good food plus they're open really late!!!!
One of my top 5, desert island, last night in Miami picks. Steak chow fun and whatever their soft serve is are always a good go to.
Alexis BudejenJuly 5, 2015Awesome Asian fusion food. Everything is good. The menu also changes. Open late. Can get pricey.- Miami New TimesNovember 21, 2010Midtown's hippest and affordable dining spot. "If restaurants had IQs, Gigi would be a genius. Everything about the place is smart, starting with the décor and ambiance: urban chic."
Stas_RogozinJune 15, 2015If you are ordering bbq ribs, don't forget to order some salad additionally. Otherwise you will face strong taste of meet with sweet sauce without anything much for a garnish. Cappuccino sucks
If you are here and the tuna bun is available...order it. You will think its an awesome beef burger. One of my favorites.
Delicious, affordable, and opens late! what else could you ask for? oh yes, ask for the pork Gigi Buns, the blue crab plate, the ribs and finish it off w Ovaltine dessert ;-)- Miami New TimesOctober 17, 2014This Asian-fusion restaurant offers noodles, steamed buns, and most appetizers well within your budget.

Ricarda ThompsonMarch 10, 2013Their dessert is amazing. And their food is such a surprise everytime. Try everything they got. Never disappointed!
Peter LadaFebruary 13, 2013Food's good. Not terrific. Most dishes work well, some are a bit forced. But for fuck's sake, get the service in shape. A slow night, sitting outside means 15+ minutes wait before each course.
Beyond delicious... The Chocolate Buns are ridiculously good. Made with nutella and carmelized banana, you'll be dreaming about them for weeks.- Everything is great. Even the service. The drumsticks are yumsticks. One of my top 5 in Miami. Mushroom buns really grow on you. Enjoy!
Gotto try the "Braised short rib meat loaf" and the "Nutella Mousse". Also as an appetizer you can have a "Roasted pork-Peanut bun". Great food!
Marby AmarillasSeptember 30, 2013The pad thai, the buns and cant leave if you havent tried the corn bread, is perfect!!
Burak OzanJuly 7, 2013Gigi's all about hip. Great, delicious food is bonus! Try any noodles, you cant go wrong...
This is by far one of the best non traditional food dishes in midtown Miami... Great place, delicious food, fresh ingredients...- WalterOctober 3, 2012I love the food there, whoever i don't go there more often because of they way they serve the food, you can get you appetizer at the end or wait for ever while everybody else is eating
Miami has few authentic, fast, and chic noodle shops. Congrats, you've found one of them! Try the homemade blueberry soda, pork ramen, and refreshing chili-mint melon salad!
