    Steamed oysters
    Diana D.

    Delicious selection of Asian cuisines. My go to is usually the lo mein as it's so yummy eaten fresh! Ask about the oysters! When available they're PLUMP and deliciously yummy! Minzy is such a sweetheart and always so accommodating to my family and I! She makes the experience here worth it every time and even remembers our favorite orders or dishes! Right outside the casino next to the conservatory you can enjoy a nice view while eating in an open space.

    Ginger & Scallion Seasonal House-Style Lobster
    Vy H.

    I come here frequently whenever I'm at MGM casino--probably the best restaurant in here, and they are open late, which is a huge benefit when hungry at night. Service is pretty good too. Overall, the food is good, not the best out there, but it's consistently good! For soups, Hot & Sour Soup, Oxtail Soup, Wonton Noodle Soup, Minced Beef Congee or Pork & Century Egg Congee are my top favorites. For entrees, highly recommend House-Style Diced Beef, Ginger & Scallion House-Style Lobster, Honey Walnut Prawns, Crispy & Spicy Pork Chops, Peking Roasted Duck, and Soft-Shell Crab Fried Rice. Obviously since the restaurant is located in a casino, the prices here are indeed overpriced--but you are able to use your MGM comps! Just be prepared to spend here.

    Convenient location inside the MGM. Had dinner right before a concert. Made dinner reservations. They were able to accommodate an addition. Really nice atmosphere. Good service. Food was okay for me. It's expensive. We ordered the duck, edamame, and salted fish and chicken fried rice.

    Seafood Hot Pot

    The food was served cooked to order but the flavoring wasn't as seasoned as I would've liked it to be. The ambiance was nice and the service was fast. I would definitely probably try them again

    Came here after seeing Bill Bellamy at the theater. Glad it's open late. The food was decent. Had the Singapore noodles. It got the job done. Ambiance was great. Best to make a reservation to avoid having to wait here. Service was good. I'd come again.

    Garlic snow pea shoots and Salt & Pepper pork chops with jalapeños and peppercorns. Don't forget the side of chilies.

    Ginger is located in MGM casino and is one of plethora of dining options. More casual than fine dining and the wait time was short. We came before the dinner rush on a weekday and the casino's garage parking was easy. In cantonese fashion, the dishes were delicious. The menu is extensive and the service was friendly. Salt and pepper pork chop was incredibly crisp and seasoned well. I love the added crispy jalapeños and side of chilies. The garlic snow pea shoots is my personal favorite and I could've eaten that alone. Not pictured is chicken and salty fish fried rice to take home. It was loaded with chicken, very pungent, and filling. There's no doubt this place can get busy as it picked up toward the end of my visit. Consider especially during conference season (nearby Gaylord Resort) and holiday months as the lobby is decorated elaborately. Definitely plan your visit!

    Been here several times. Most recent time w/ my parents this month. Reportedly no Thai Iced Tea the day we went. Shared several dishes. Overall quality good & tasty food. Definitely pricey. Unsure if the shrimp was fresh, even though it was delicious, later greatly upset my stomach. If I go back, will definitely not get the same dishes.

    Wow so delicious! I requested a seat by the flowers instead of in the center of the dining hall, to our surprise the Asian waitress went to grab someone to seat us we thought because she didn't understand my request in English. Out came a black lady who didn't wear a smile or any welcome so we were taken aback from the drastic change in energy. Once she seated us and left our new waitress Song was THE SWEETEST. She wore a big hairstyle that gave the appeal of an Asian actress in a 70's Chinese/Korean drama. We loved her and she loved us. Later, she shared that the black lady was the manager which was nice to know...good for her it must not be easy. She wore a smile when she came back to visit our table. Our food was delicious, and being by the gorgeous view was lovely as well. Go, enjoy!

    Taiwanese braised beef soup and General Tso's Shrimp
    Eunice I.

    Ate here with my boyfriend before the Maxwell show. We made reservations, but got there 15 minutes early, so were immediately seated. Our waitress was very nice, but the only one serving our section and it was really busy, so she tried her best to keep up with the number of guests. Despite there being so many people, she was able to offer great service. My boyfriend and I had reviewed the menu before we came so knew what we wanted to order. The menu online doesn't list their prices, so we were a bit surprised when we saw the menu prices listed. It's definitely a bit pricey. For example, some of the rice dishes run between $30-$50. Granted, it is enough for two or more people, so I guess you get your money's worth. I ordered the Tawainese braised noodle soup with the spring rolls as an appetizer. My boyfriend had the General Tso Shrimp with steamed broccoli on the side. He really enjoyed his food, but I thought my meal was alright. To begin, the presentation was very nice, but there was no taste, spice or seasoning. I had to ask for a side of chili oil just to doctor the dish up, and that helped a lot, but I was disappointed in the overall lack of flavor. The interior, though, is very nice and spacious. The dishes around me looked very good, and I'd be willing to give them another chance, but for the price point I expected more flavor.

    Signature Soft-Shell Crab Fried Rice
    Charnika P.

    This is one of the few restaurants in the MGM that is actually decent. Not sure that I would go out of my way to stop through. But if you have a show at the MGM this is a good pre-dinner or after the show late night eat.

    Lychee martini
    Donica T.

    I had a great experience at this restaurant. I ordered the pad Thai and my friend ordered the shrimp fried rice and they both came out hot and delicious. I also had a lychee martini which was very good. The ambience was great for the location because it is inside of a casino so it's lively and you get to see the amazing Decor that MGM switches out regularly. My waitress was very attentive and I will definitely be back.

    Veggie Crispy Spring Rolls Hot and Sour Soup
    Tonya D.

    At the recommendation of a friend, we visited after attending a comedy show. There was a wait for seating, but the time pass quickly. Once we got seated, our server took our orders, and we didn't have to wait long for our appetizers or entrées. Great choice for late meal if you're visiting MGM.

    General tso shrimp
    Kaneisha W.

    The best thing about this restaurant is that once you order your food, your meal is usually brought out in less than 15 minutes. I've never experienced a long wait. It is best to make reservations on weekends and nights. The customer service is absolutely amazing!!! The food is so delicious... my faves are the general tso shrimp and the Singapore noodles. The mixed cocktails are very good also.

    Do they still offer dim sum on the weekends?

    Yes

    Good options for vegans?

    There were some vegetarian options on the menu but I'm not 100% certain on the vegan options but I wouldn't doubt that some of the items can be made into vegan meals.

In mid-November 2025, my friend was having a birthday celebration in Old Town Alexandria. He was originally picking some Italian place, Mia's, which we were looking forward to, but I think my friend tried to book a reservation too late, and the available times weren't at all good for him. So, he switched to Asian Bistro. I was thinking this wasn't going to be as good. I was skeptical because they were simply Asian Bistro and didn't focus on one cuisine like Chinese, Thai, etc. However, I was mistaken. The restaurant is small, but they accommodated for our large group albeit a bit tight. Server was friendly. My girlfriend & I decided to split Pad Thai & a couple of sushi rolls.

Their menu features appetizers like summer rolls, veggie gyoza, crab & chicken shumai, and entrees like lemongrass pan fried noodles, broccoli stir fry, pad thai, and lo mein with your choice of protein as prices range from about $10-$20 per item. I kept it simple and tried the fried rice with pork. Overall excellent dish: large portion size, a sufficient amount of protein, and a nice combination of ingredients with the shredded carrots, bell peppers, peas, scallions and onions. I'll certainly be returning to try out a few more of their menu items.

We also ordered an avocado salad, tuna tartare and tonkastsu ramen. The garlic in the ramen was decidedly strong. But overall, this was a great experience and we want to return.

Some of my favorites are the Pancit Malabon, Crispy Pata, Sisig, and their grilled skewers. My sister loves Chickboys too and stops by several times a month to pick up food for our parents. The Pancit Malabon is one of those dishes I keep craving. The combination of rich flavors, tender pork belly, and shrimp is absolutely delicious and keeps me coming back for more. The Crispy Pata is another standout--perfectly crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and amazing when paired with rice and their dipping sauce. I also have to give a special shoutout to the skewers. In my opinion, they're some of the best in the area--always juicy, flavorful, and cooked just right. I've had to wait a little longer for my food on occasion, but that's because everything is made fresh and often comes straight off the grill. It's absolutely worth the wait. I live in DC, but Chickboys has become a regular stop whenever I'm visiting my parents. Honestly, it's probably a good thing it's not closer to me, or I'd be there every day! My parents especially enjoy it when my sister brings home Chickboys for them. As they've gotten older, it's become a wonderful way to treat them to comforting Filipino food without having to cook. One more thing--don't overlook their catering. I've had Chickboys at several catered events throughout the area, and they always impress. From backyard parties and graduations to larger gatherings, the food is consistently fresh, flavorful, and a crowd favorite. The grilled skewers alone are enough to get people talking. If you're ever in the area and looking for food that tastes like home in the Philippines, give Chickboys a try. Parking is easy, the food is consistently delicious, and you'll leave with a full stomach while already planning what you're going to order on your next visit. And if you're hosting an event, be sure to book Chickboys catering--you won't be disappointed. P.S. I promise to take pictures next time I visit.

He mentioned we go across the street and try something he liked as it was something he would have back home. So, taking his advice we walked across the street and went to Mai Thai. It was a good suggestion. We went in and had a seat. Our waitress (a wonderful woman from Guam) gave some advice and we to some time to think. In the end we decided to start with Spring Rolls. This is the freshest sliced roll of crispy veggie combinations of lettuce, celery, mixed veggies wrapped in a thin wrap and served with a sweet and sour dipping sauce. It was truly fresh and tasty. The dipping sauce was unique and made this worth a meal by itself. Then, being a cold day outside, soup seemed to be a good thing for lunch. We selected some traditional bowls of soup. First was TOM KA. It was a combination of vegetables and tofu in a coconut broth with mushrooms and fresh herbs. The soup had a tint of white. It was light and tasty. It was at a room temperature which is the way you have soup in Thailand. It was refreshing and light. Next we had TOM YUM. This is a combination made from slices of chicken in a lemongrass soup with fresh mushrooms, cilantro, scallions, galangal, kaffir-lime leaves, and Thai spices. The broth was light and traditional. If you wanted more spice our hostess brought it to you. Again, this was the way I had it when I was working in the rural areas of Thailand. Nothing fancy. Nothing simple. It was true home cooking that was served to you in a method truly Thai. The lunch was simple, but the way you would eat in Thailand. The taste and flavor was what to expect. The team is wonderful and friendly. The price was fine. It was good to find Mai Thai.

No. Not only did they not offer to fix the mistake, the man on the phone berated me and accused me of lying about SWEET AND SOUR SAUCE. Sir, it's sauce.
