Had a great experience at Gigi Thai and really loved the food here. The restaurant is located down the block from Somerville and the entrance is in the strip mall. There's a good amount of parking in the back or even on the streets. Came here for lunch on a Saturday with a friend. We had to wait a bit for a table but was sat but our server. Service was great and our server was attentive to our needs. The restaurant is great for any occasion. We ordered the oxtail fried rice and the lamb chops. Each dish was delicious and flavorful. The portions are huge and we were able to share each dish. Highly recommend and would definitely come back! read more

Thai food is probably at the bottom of my Asian food preference list now. Don't get me wrong, I still like it -- I just prefer other Asian cuisines more these days. That being said, I wanted to give this place a chance because it's Black-owned and considered a fusion restaurant. We walked in around 4 PM on a Saturday, and the place was relatively empty, yet for some odd reason it still took 30 minutes before we were seated. Because of the delay, we already had our entire order ready to go: a soup, two drinks, two appetizers, and two mains. Needless to say, everything came out at once about 30 minutes later, and it completely overcrowded our tiny table. On top of that, our server forgot one appetizer, the rice, the shared plates, and the bowls for the soup. The frustrating part was that the restaurant still wasn't busy yet. As for the food, it was just ok overall, and the crab rangoon had zero crab in it. By the time we were ready to leave, the restaurant had finally started filling up, but now we couldn't get our server's attention for to-go boxes or even the check. I'm happy I supported Giti this one time, but I don't think I'll return. Filing this one away in my TikTok hype folder. read more

DAAAAAAMN! The vibe, music and artwork is absolutely on point! They were playing 90's R&B and we were just in the vibe! We started with the Giti wings. Delicious! Followed up with yellow curry without any meat. Delicious! Followed up with the combo fried rice and pad Thai! Delicious! My friends had the Poor Richard's Lamb chops that comes on top of panang curry. They said it was a 9/10! To top it all off, DOMINIQUE delivered exceptional service and the kitchen backed her up!!! This is a really great date spot if you're on this side of town!!! Also good for double dates! For my Asians: this is a disclaimer! This is Thai fusion! Not Asian Thai! read more

Very good! Thanks to LA TryGuy, I decided to pop in for the first time on Friday afternoon for a takeout order. Inside was nice and tranquil with beautiful artwork. Plenty of parking in the back. We were pleasantly greeted immediately and placed an order right away. Had our sights set on the oxtail fried rice. For $35, we expected it to be a standard one slot rectangle take out container (you know the ones). Instead it was a 3-slot tray...enough for a main and two small sides. The fried rice was in a small slot, side salad in the other, and the oxtail was in the larger area. EVERYTHING was delicious. Really delicious. I just wish that there was more actual fried rice. Anyway, the oxtail was cooked to perfection. Very flavorful and had a delightful smoky taste. Also tried the crab fried rice. It was equally good. Will definitely go back to try other things, now that I know what to expect. read more

Giti Thai is a black owned Halal Thai restaurant serving authentic Thai dishes with a soulful twist. I came for the oxtail dishes but was sad to learn it was already sold out by the time we got there around 6:30pm on a Saturday. The place isn't big, but they have a decent amount of tables inside and a small patio with a few tables outside. They also don't take reservations so we put our names down and waited about an hour for the next available table. We just went over to Somerville and had drinks at the bar while we waited. When we returned, our table was just about ready and they seated us promptly and took our drink orders. They offer Thai iced tea, soft beverages, beer and wine. We got a good variety of dishes: Giti Wings $14 worth a try! These were so flavorful, crispy, spicy and juicy. Yellow Thai Curry $18 with potatoes, carrots, onions and a bowl of rice. The curry was rich, creamy with coconut milk and spices, very comparable to other Thai places around. Drunken Noodles $18 the flat rice noodles with crisp onions, bell peppers, garlic, fresh Thai basil and cherry tomatoes had a nice kick and was also similar to what I've had at great Thai restaurants in Long Beach. Giti Thai's Spicy Swai $18 the Swai fillets were lightly battered and fried, paired with mushrooms, fresh bell peppers, garlic, Thai basilI and a bowl of rice. I thought this was a unique and flavorful dish. Giti's Garlic Lamb Chops $26 three perfectly cooked lamb chops were served with a spring mix salad, jasmine rice and drizzled with mustard ginger dressing. The owner came around and greeted patrons, which was a personable touch. I commended him on the flavors of the dishes and he said he got one of the best chefs who specializes in Thai cuisine. I also asked what led him to open a Thai restaurant and he said he surveyed folks in the community and this is what was requested. Brilliant strategy as the restaurant is clearly popular, packed and people are willing to wait to get their Thai fix! read more

Service was great, restaurant is clean and has a warm black Thai feel with the art.. they had plenty of patrons in the establishment. We order drunken noodles, oxtails fried rice, papaya salad, chicken satay and a Thai tea. The drunken noodles beef was very tough we could not chew it. The ox tail dish was just okay, it lacked seasoning. The satay was a No! It tasted like they marinated in peanuts or something. The papaya salad was just okay, being part Thai I already know they wasn't going to get it right but it was good enough. The Thai tea needed to be a little bit more sweeter. My husband rated them a 5 but I gave a 6. We spent $105. The waitress took off the satay, which was nice of her. read more

Giti Thai truly delivered a 5-star experience! The Thai Wings were a highlight--shatteringly crisp yet incredibly juicy. The Cream Cheese Wontons were a golden, crispy delight that paired seamlessly with the sweet and sour sauce. For the main, the Pad See Ew was seasoned to perfection with that signature wok-charred taste, washed down with a delicious Plum Wine and a rich Thai Iced Tea. You can tell Billy was the one behind the stove today because every dish was executed with such precision and care. Huge props to Billy for making this such a memorable lunch. I can't wait to come back for more! read more

Came here for a midweek dinner and it did not disappoint. I loved the overall design and vibe--from the artwork to the lampshades, everything felt thoughtfully put together. The wings were on point: crispy, slightly sweet, with just the right amount of heat. I also enjoyed the fried rice and the curry lamb. The curry was a bit thicker than I'm used to, but the flavor was excellent. Don't skip the Thai tea--it's a must. I'll definitely be back to try more items. read more

We came on a Saturday evening around 7pm with no reservation and got seated within 15 min. It was pretty busy, but it seems like it was primarily from to-go orders. The restaurant is pretty small. The food came out in a timely manner. I really enjoyed everything we got. The wings were good, the Swai was my favorite it was very flavorful. The only thing I would say is that their hot sauce is not hot at all lol read more

So I saw this food on instagram and knew I had try it the next time I was in LA. Well this was that trip! The co-owner Brandon is an amazing guy and his staff were super friendly and cordial. It's a down home family feel and everyone is welcome. I had the Giti Wings, super flavorful and tender. The Oxtail Curry with rice was absolutely some of the best food I've had in a while. The bathrooms were sparkling clean and the atmosphere was on a good vibe and energy. read more

Aesthetically it looks very welcoming! The food is very flavorful, however from the three times I've eaten there, it is drenched in sodium for the pad-see-you dish. It was so salty that I had to add a plain cup of rice to it, to modify it the next day. A reason for the four stars is because the rest of my family always loves their entrees. read more

We used to love this place but the last two times it just hasn't been up to the normal standards. We placed a to-go order that was meant to be ready in 20 minutes. When we arrived to the restaurant they told us it would be another 20 minutes but it took 1 more hour. We ordered a shrimp pad Thai, chicken yellow curry, and spring rolls. Unfortunately the chicken was completely raw, not even a little cooked. Won't be returning. read more

(Rating for Take-Out food) Inside the restaurant, decor was truly beautiful! Great vibes and music, made me want to come back to experience sitting down and ordering. I had a large (over $200) order for pick up to bring to my mom's house. Food was sweet and loaded with soy sauce.. My green papaya salad was not good, simply put. I ate it as to not waste, but it was not what a green papaya salad has usually been in my experience. Only three shrimp, sure understandable I suppose. Some restaurants do cooked shrimp, others do the dried small shrimp. I prefer the salty dried shrimp, but cooked ones are also fine! But the dressing was tasting of almost pure soy sauce. Not the bright citrus, spicy dressing it shouldve been. The other dishes, like the tom kha we ordered, tasted sweet. My kids liked the pad see ew!. Maybe will try again for a sit down experience but take out food was disappointing. We were excited to support our local business, so we will give another chance one day :) read more

I love the ambiance of this place. They were playing R&B/Soul which added to the vibes. The staff were friendly and accommodating. I did have to wave my server down for the check and to place my order, as they were a little busy and he seemed to have been covering the entire restaurant. The lamb chops took about 30-40 minutes to come out, which I didn't mind but would've been nice to know ahead of time. They were so juicy and flavorful! The veggie egg rolls were good as well. I wanted to order another item to go but it took so long for my waiter to come back over to me, I just closed my tab. I may come back during the week when it's less crowded. read more

I placed my order online at 5:54 PM (crab rice, combo rice, Thai wings, orange chicken, teriyaki chicken). My wife and I wanted to try a variety of what they had to offer. Bill was a little over $100. The confrontation said the food would be ready at 6:14 PM. I arrived at 6:10 PM. The gentleman behind the counter said that the order was placed at 6:14. I explained to him and showed him the order stating that it said it would be ready at 6:14 PM. He stated he hasn't even put the order in for the kitchen to start cooking it. He put the order in and said it would take 30 minutes to be ready. I went and waited in my truck and returned at 6:40. The food was still not ready and I was told 5-10 minutes more. I patiently waited and was told by the staff multiple times that my order was being worked on. My food was ready at 7:10 an hour after arriving and the online confirmation stating it would be. I understand that it's a Friday and it may be busy, but to me the app saying one time for the online order and it being ready an hour after is unacceptable. I was given a coupon for a free tea on my next visit, but I don't think I would be returning. I was always told you only get one chance to make a first impression. All of the dishes were dry and we weren't given any sauce to compensate Thai wings - not really flavorful Teriyaki chicken - a little salty Crab rice - couldn't taste the crab Combo rice - a couple shrimp, small amounts of chicken and maybe 3 shrimp. Beef seemed over cooked Orange chicken - only the color was orange not the flavor The food was a no for my wife and I we didn't even finish our plates and tossed the rest. The ambiance was cool and chill. Other than the waiting the service seemed decent the people inside were eating and leaving as I was waiting for my order. read more

GITI, GITI, GITI..where have you been all my life?! I visited this restaurant a hand full of times their 1st year and a half of opening. During those visits, they were mediocre AT BEST.... BUT NOW OMG,... HAIL TO THE CHEF! The New chef(s), New wait staff and New management has taken this spot to a whole new level! The food was AMAZINGLY FLAVORFUL and worth the long wait the TWO DAYS IN A ROW that we went! If you're the impatient type...bring a book, newspaper, your iPad or your BFF and RELAX , it's worth the wait. THE STAFF: Friendly ,courteous, service with a smile. You can tell they don't hire any Tom, Dick, Harry or Mary that applies. They clearly have a standard they want to uphold. Bravo! We see you! THE FOOD: Garlic String Beans with Salmon - the fish was cooked medium and juicy. Fresh String beans were cooked correctly ( not overcooked ) and had just enough crunch and plenty of garlic! Had this 2 days in a row. YES, we went 2 days back to back lol. Oxtail Fried Rice Plate with salad - oxtail seasoned to perfection has a mild smoky taste accompanied with a perfectly flavored rice and salad with a yummy dressing. Crab Fried Rice - Delish! Thai Wings - Cooked perfectly with a nice sauce. No scary pink spots or chewy soft skin. Crab Lagoons - fresh crab, doesn't taste like it's canned. Cucumber Lemonade - a bit on the too sweet side ( for me) but tasty nevertheless and I ordered 2 glasses to my blood sugar's dismay ;-} Thai Iced Tea - This was the only miss for me. Thai Iced Tea is traditionally sweet, Giti's is not. But, on the otherhand, Im working on reducing my refined sugar intake so their MISS with the tea was a big PLUS for my health ;-) read more

I'm STUFFED! The food at Giti Thai is amazing. The oxtail fried rice was delicious- tender oxtails cooked just right and flavorful rice. The crab Rangoon and orange chicken are both exceptional. DON'T SLEEP on the Giti Wings. I think the wings are what knocked me out soon as I got home (just woke up). The service was on point as the hostess was courteous and our server Dominique made great recommendations. The rest of the staff was also fantastic. Loved the atmosphere as well. The surrounding area is entertaining and parking was a breeze. Can't wait to go back and tackle the rest of the menu. read more

Giti Thai YESSSS omg loved it ! For the drink, I got the chai tea and that was my favorite drink. I got the egg rolls and this was really good! The oxtail curry was worth the wait because there was so good and cooked perfectly. And for dessert, the sticky mango rice, reminding me of my trip to Bangkok By going to Giti Thai it felt like going a second time to Thailand. My waiter Kris was very agreeable pleasant smiling respectful and enthusiast.I gave him a 10 out of 10 for the service. Within the first 10 minutes he took our order and I only had to wait less than 20 minutes to get my food on a very busy day. The restaurant has a warmful ambiance. I highly recommend! read more

Service was spectacular! After a long day with no food we were craving thai and this definitely hit the spot. We ordered green curry, tam yum, pad tai, chicken satay, thai tea, and pineapple juice. I'd recommend the tam yum, chicken satay and the green curry. I don't recommend getting pineapple juice it was watered down, and pad tai, it was sour. Tam yum soup was fresh. It was our first time trying the green curry, really acquired taste but I would get it again The ambiance was very calming as well. read more

I really wanted to enjoy this place. Drove from Orange County with the family. Wait staff was pleasant but seemed overwhelmed and unprepared to respond to the slow and inconsistent kitchen. Food was slow to come out for any table. At one point at least 4 table were complaining about now receiving their food. The crab lagoon had very little crab. The waitress acknowledged others had expressed the same disappointment and corrected the bill. We order curry ox tail and was told at least 40 mins to prepare. Ordered a drunken noodle entree and the ox tail came out in 10 mins. The drunken noodle came out 35 mins later. The noodles were no where near a 35 min wait dish. The dish seemed rushed and thrown together. Great concept but please do better in a way that customers want to return for the experience and food. read more
