Reviews
The pho here is outstanding and one of the best in LA. The broth is rich, flavorful, and clearly made with care. Every bite feels comforting and authentic.
Free parking is available in the lot next door as long as you are eating at Gigo’s Cafe & Deli. See photo to locate the parking lot before you go.
This is a family-owned spot with heart, and it deserves your support. If you want great pho in Chinatown, I highly recommend Gigo’s Cafe & Deli.

I will firmly stand behind this statement, I’ve gone to 100s of Vietnamese restaurants over the years and not one is as good as Gigo’s Cafe.
Something about the broth stands out, one of the big tests of a good pho is, if you’re really thirsty after eating it, it’s filled with MSG to “take shortcuts”. But not here, Gigo’s has their broth simmering on low and slow, old fashion way which enhances the flavors. Would recommend having your Combination Pho with Rice Noodles for a different but delicious take on the classic. Also the spring-rolls and Cha Gia are amazing!
Owners are EXTREMELY nice people, always coming to conversate with us and you can tell they care about their business.
This is one of the best local spots in Chinatown and truly a hidden gem!
Pickup was easy and service was prompt from my phone-in order. Food was delicious and the broth was exactly what I had wanted to help treat my cold. I’ll certainly be back again!
I stop by regularly for Vietnamese eggrolls, which are wrapped in rice paper, crispy, and delicious! Their pho broth is also fragrant tho I wish they carried SATE TRIEU-CHAU which is a fast the other Vietnamese restaurant down the road carries which is packed with garlic and lemongrass flavor. You could always just buy a jar of the sauce at an Asian market and buy the pho here which is cheaper to add it yourself at home.
We ordered on Postmates right before closing but they accepted our order. The food came in about 40 minutes. Price is decent compared to other Vietnamese restaurants but the food wasn’t good. The food and sauce were all pretty bland and didn’t have the Vietnamese umami flavors
Nem Nuong Cuon voi Cha Ram Tom/Summer Roll ($7.75): This comes with 3 fat rolls. The first bite was good but after that, it was just okay. The sauce is very interesting but the flavor doesn’t really compliment the summer roll. It surprisingly tastes better with the vermicelli noodles. Their nem nuong needs to be cut thinner as the pieces are too chunky. It’s also a bit hard and not as juicy as we would have liked it to be.
Bun Dac Biet ($15.50): The pork was good but the shrimp was bad. Vermicelli was okay. I like that they provide shredded lettuce and cucumbers.
House Special Combo With Broken Rice #21 ($15.50): Everything in this dish was mid except for the egg roll which was pretty good. The egg roll looked like a hybrid of a regular egg roll and an imperial egg roll. Another plus was that they used actual broken rice so I appreciate the authenticity.
I’ll definitely be coming back 🙂
