Love this place. A must stop when I’m in the area. Love the pork siopao (especially the ones made with ube) and the pan de ube!

The steak and cheese was delicious it had a nice zing to it. The fries had some kind of nice truffle on them. Everything was made fresh to order. Loved it will definitely be

I was excited about this place, but was bummed about how the Filipino flavors were difficult to parse out with all of the non-Filipino toppings. If I knew that a crunchy rice bowl could and probably should be ordered without the yum-yum like sauce, I would've. The siopao was delicious though and definitely why I'll go back.

I ordered the Chicken Adobo tacos and loaded fries, and both were mediocre. The chicken was okay, but the sauce lacked flavor. It was also difficult the get to the fries due to the highly processed cheese. The food was expensive in comparison to the quality. It is unfortunate because I was expecting more and definitely hoping to frequent this establishment more often in the future.

The food was relatively okay but overpriced for what it is. Almost 25.00 for a small chicken sandwich with some fries and a smoothie.. i migh as well go to a restaurant...The fries were cooked in fresh oil and that's important but it was very obvious they buy them frozen in bulk. The chicken sandwich was okay but the bread they use is cheap and quality of the chicken is mediocre.

Good food but not big on size. I've been living in the area for a few years and I've seen the ups and downs of restaurants in this area. Sadly, I feel Gigi's may not be around much longer. I assume the issues caused by the pandemic led to the new limited menu. In the past Gigi's also served pizza, calzones, strombolis, etc. However, now they primarily serve what I would call "Instagram" food. It's either tacos, burritos, or fries?! And it's all $15--regardless. I ordered tacos and lumpia ($40 after taxes). The tacos were good--basic but good. However, they were soooo small. Like $1 size tacos. You get 3 tacos for $15, no sides, no rice, no beans. Each taco is 2 bites. So enjoy those 6 bites! I can't imagine many people going for the food at this point, but I hear the boba is good.
I ordered 3 bobas for my nieces, popcorn chicken, and 5 wings (hawaiian). First of all, they got the Boba order wrong twice, I got tired of waiting and explained to the person that I didn't want to wait again for them to get it right. Secondly, both chicken orders were over cooked and the popcorn chicken was salty as he'll. Never going back! I'm giving 2 stars bc they were not rude.

Based on the reviews, I drove 30mins to try this place my clients were telling me about. I ordered “The Easy Money-Garlic Butter Shrimp” and was easily disappointed. Not sure if the cook was off or if the sauce was left outside the refrigerator or they forgot to use “REAL SHRIMP” or what. But for $15, I was really looking forward to eating what appeared to be a great tasting burrito but sadly disappointed. My dad ordered “The Be Easy-Smoked Brisket Burrito and was looking for the same result but sadly disappointed as well. Brisket was very dry. He asked for extra sauce but simply didn’t like it and he eats anything. Always looking forward to a great meal and leaving a positive review but this simply was not it.

The steak & cheese was nicely flavored and the bread was soft. It was not an overstuffed sub & that is fine it was more than enough for me to enjoy. The onion rings were not good at all tasted like they were frozen. I love onion rings so this was a big deal to me lol. I would still go back and try other things. The staff was very inviting and friendly.

I always love this spot and will stop just for Boba Tea and Shanghai Lumpia. Delish and the only decent place I've found for Boba in Southern MD!

I have ordered from them 2 time and both times the did not add the boba. 6 drinks the first time and 5 of them didn't have boba 6 drinks the second time and 2 had boba. They either can't read their own stickers saying what should be inside them or they really don't like there jobs.
