Gave this place a second try after a previous bad experience and glad we did. Food and service were much improved. Ginger fried rice was delicious. read more

In town from Chicago and food was great. Service was good and pricing is very reasonable. The mango roll was awesome.

One of the best! We have not had a bad meal or experience in our three visits. The staff has been friendly and helpful. The food has been consistent and consistently delicious. read more

Fantastic. The sushi was amazing and the best I've had in the area. Our waiter was wonderful and very helpful when we asked for suggestions. Already looking forward to our next visit. read more

My wife and I strongly prefer authentic ethnic flavors as opposed to americanized ones, and this place blew us away! We had to go back two days after we tried it for the first time to try other dishes. It was incredible! read more

GingeRootz never fails to satisfy. Tonight we came during a busy time and were offered immediate seating on the patio. Good choice! It is a warm evening, and the patio is terrific with a stylish canopy and wonderful piped-in music. Our meal was amazing as well. I had the piano bean curd, and Lori had a build-a-bowl featuring shrimp. We also started with edamame. Everything was hot, fresh and scrumptious. Our server was friendly and prompt, which was surprising considering how busy the place was. We'll come back - of course, this place is a Fox Valley gem! read more

Gingerootz is a very good Asian restaurant, but for those who must or prefer to avoid gluten, their ability to prepare most of their dishes gluten-free really sets them apart. It's a great place to accommodate groups who may have diverse dietary needs. read more

Gingerootz is a good place to eat! The service was good and the atmosphere was excellent. The only issue I had with the place was the meal. My customizable bowl was very salty. I may come back again but I wouldn't get the same meal again. read more

I come in about 2-3 times a month if not more sometimes, and this is by far the best Asian restaurant I've been to in the fox valley area. I lived in japan for a few years and for the sushi and sashimi here is by far the best I've had compared to the homeland of the food. The wait staff is always polite and courteous, and the owner really takes the time to get to know his customers. If I could, I would give this place a 10 out of 5. read more

GingeRootz has become one of my favorite "happy place" restaurants. Whenever I'm in a lousy mood, I'll head to GingeRootz to cheer myself up. I frequent this restaurant so often that the waitstaff now knows my normal order. I love the clean, minimal atmosphere, and the food has never let me down. The menu has a wide selection of modernized Asian dishes, and there is something for even the pickiest of eaters. I recommend starting with the Crab-Meat Rangoons, Roast Duck for the main course, and wrapping up with the Tempura Cheesecake read more

Good prices, good food, and fast service. Also, they're open during the part of the afternoon that most sushi places are closed for. read more

Gingerootz Asian Grille - Spicy salmon and edimame - Asian Fusion Near Me - Appleton, Wisconsin

Since living in Appleton this is one of our favorite places. The service is always good and the wait is never long. While the Asian food isn't necessarily, traditional, the flavor is good and a bit more upscale tasting. The orange chicken has the same great flavor of the stuff you typically order in on a rainy day but the flavor is cleaner and you don't feel like you need a nap after eating it. The sushi rolls are pretty great as well, the Appleton roll is by far my favorite. This is a great place to go with a group of friends or a date. It's modern in the inside, the drink menu is good and the bar is a good place to wait if there's a wait on a Friday or Saturday night. read more

Went here for dinner with some friends. Our server was very fun and our orders were taken and we got our food in a timely matter even thought it was a busy weekend. We were all in the mood for sushi even though they only offer a few different rolls. Overall it was just ok. We ordered the Appleton Roll (Best one!!), Spider roll (meh), Pumpkin Roll (ok), and the Philadelphia roll (smoked salmon and sushi do not mix IMO). For sides we got Calamari and Crab Rangoon The Calamari was fine. The Rangoons pretty much just tasted like melted cream cheese. But who doesn't love cream cheese? They were still pretty good with the house Sweet and Sour. Q To drink I ordered Plum wine. I'd never had Plum wine before so I didn't know what to expect. It was served slightly warm and has a very strong aroma. At first I thought I was going to really like it but after the first few sips it began tasting like cough syrup. (I didn't factor this into my rating because I had no clue what plum wine was supposed to be like) I ordered Pad Thai to-go and that was good! It wasn't exactly authentic but all the flavors were there and I would definitely order it again! Next visit I would like to try more off of their regular entree menu. read more

Attempted to support local business during virus, but they can not handle take out business. Ordered via phone and told us to pick up in 60 minutes. Got to restaurant an hour later and went inside to pay. After payment with tip processed they said they would run it out to me in car in a few minutes. Sat in car 30 minutes then went back into to restaurant to get update. Told me they have not started it yet and it would be another 30 minutes. Asked for a refund as which they said they would process - never got the money back. Thank good PF Chang opened so we have another options. read more

I've been here a couple of times all being positive experiences. I love the sushi and the crab rangoon. My most recent visit was for a special event and got to learn how to roll and make sushi. They have a small private room that's good for groups or in this case an event. The staff were great as they talked about the history of sushi and why certain ingredients were used. You do everything yourself and you go step by step as a group. Probably the trickiest part was cutting the sushi. It was fun as we got a chance to make our own sushi rolls with the provided ingredients. If you're in need of a party idea, try a rolling sushi event with Gingerootz! read more

I have been eating at this place since 2007 when they first hired a Korean chef right out of Korea. His dishes were closer to the authentic version of where the dishes are from (except that don't have kimchi - disappointing) and most importantly, they tasted great. I notice the taste has been declining over the years. Bibimbap used to be the best I had tasted up and down the East coast and throughout Midwest but not anymore. Fried rice is still good with the shredded dried scallops and pine nuts but again it was not as tasty as before now that they skim on the quantity of the shredded scallops. There's not much I can review for the rest of the other Asian dishes. Just another bland in a non-special way for taste. I feel they have stopped trying and they should not because Appleton is expanding so much last few years and more and more people are coming to it for business and pleasure. I can only imagine the competition will go up and with foodies coming into town, they will continue getting negative reviews. Used to love you Gingerzootz but not anymore. read more

This is probably my favorite Asian restaurant in Appleton. Me and my father are visiting from San Francisco and this place wowed me. The service here was impeccable and everyone had a warming attitude. If you come here anytime soon I highly recommend the whole roast duck. All the flavors were spot on and it was just an amazing experience. read more

We placed an order to pick-up and take home. The person who took our order (after being placed on hold for 4 minutes) gave us absolutely no reason that our order would be correct. We were quite disappointed when we got our order home. The 'Sushi Lovers Combo' had just THREE pieces of Sushi with a California Roll $23. No soy sauce. No chopsticks. No attention to detail. No customer satisfaction. read more

Great sushi. Try the spicy sake roll. Fried rice was fresh and tasty. The "petite" portion was huge! Crab rangoons were nothing to write home about and not worth 6.99 in my opinion. They weren't bad, just average. Very friendly staff. Will definitely return! read more

High quality food, great friendly wait staff, and cozy atmosphere. The crystal shrimp is dynamite! Oh did I mention they also have awesome drinks and sushi? If you leave hungry it's your own fault! read more

Good food, nice folks, ok portions (not generous). Take out is prompt, I have never dined there.

Over priced and underwhelming to say the least. In any dish with meat, they put as little as possible, and way to many vegetables, so cheap! Everything is expensive and not worth it, been there a few times as a family to try to find something good, no luck. Go to Bamboo instead, it's right down the road, cheaper, and better! read more

Pretty good. The interior and service are very nice and borderline fancy. Which to be honest, is not something I'm used to at an Asian restaurant. The food was pretty average. It was definitely good, but nothing that really matched the ambiance and servers. I did really like the create-a-bowl part of the menu. Being able to choose the sauce, noodles, vegetables, and protein is really nice. Kind of like a HuHot but much better, and all the work taken out of the equation. I wouldn't complain about going back here again, but I'm not sure it's worth the drive from Green Bay. read more

Food is ok. Service is good. All my family members don't like the taste of food here. A strange combination of western and eastern styles.

Ali was our server she has extensive knowledge of the menu and is a very pleasant young lady. She pointed me towards the sesame chicken lunch special which wasn't even on the menu! She is definitely one of the best servers here at GR. read more

IF YOU DON'T WANT TO DRIVE TO PF CHANGS... I think this just about fixed my craving for PF Changs Lettuce wraps the minute I sat down in the comfy curvy booth and ordered their rendition of the lettuce wraps on the appetizer menu. I think I like the flavor a bit more even, just wish the portion was bigger. I have had almost everything on the menu. Go for happy hours where the appetizers or your drinks are paid for, whichever is less. Works out great if you want to spend $30 and have a bottle of wine and snack on 3-4 different menu items! Suggested: Crystal Shrimp (Mayo creamy base , fried, and served with pineapple. Hey, it's a sinful treat when you forget about your diet for the day) Hot Pot (when you remember you are back on your diet) Malaysian Curry (when you need comfort food and medium spiciness), General Tso Chicken. Actually, that Tso sauce is made from scratch and so good you want to pour it over yourself so order extra on side right away. The Singapore rice stix are very flavorful with a dry curry spice so these are not saucy but order with extra powder on them per the chef recommendation and you will like the flavor. They are mild so no worries. read more

Good vegan options, including the pumpkin tempura rolls. They will make the lettuce wraps with tofu instead of chicken, although it is not listed on the menu. Good service. read more

The crab rangoons were okay, not bad, but not good. We then waited 45 minutes (no exaggeration) after ordering to receive our sweet and sour chicken and tangerine chicken. The waitress told us several times that the food would be up "right away" and did thank us for our patience. Unfortunately our patience was not rewarded with a satisfying meal. There was nothing wrong with the dishes per se, but the quality and flavor were at or below that of an Asian buffet. Hopefully this was the exception to their service and not the norm, but we will not be returning. read more

Eh. Everything seemed over priced and bland. Good service but there are better places to go around the appleton area.

I've been looking forward to going to GingeRootz for a few years but hadn't gotten the chance until recently. Man, was that totally not worth the anticipation! The dining experience was so so. Certainly not objectionable, but nothing amazing or spectacular. The worst part was that I was very excited to see that the menu listed brown rice instead of white rice for the upgrade of 25 cents. You never see brown rice on the menu in Northeastern Wisconsin so maybe they honestly had no idea what brown rice should be. What I got was that fake Uncle Ben's stuff that is basically white rice with some caramelized food color added to it. Ugh! My dining companion nailed it: it's certainly not regional cuisine but rather like they took PF Chang's menu and tried to copy it as much as possible with a close approximation of what they think a dish should taste like. Even PF Chang's has real brown rice, though, and they don't charge extra for it. The fact that this place has earned several Golden Forks cinches the fact that the people in NEWis really don't have any idea what good Chinese food should taste like. In summary, certainly not bad food or service, but man, totally overrated. read more

We tried this place on a whim when we had a sushi craving and had had a WONDERFUL experience. The service was fast, super friendly, accommodating and fun. The supervisor who served us explained everything, gave great recommendations and even helped get rid of one of our groups hiccups! The sushi was very good and I highly recommend the rainbow roll and mango fusion rolls. We happened to be there during the Chinese New Year celebration and got to witness the full Lion Dance. All around, it was great and we'll be back. read more

When we ordered water to drink, we got a look from the waiter. We ordered soup and entrees. The soup was good, the entrees were luke warm at best. Very disappointing! read more

Good and clean restaurant. Staff was friendly. We ordered chicken fried rice with spicy level of 4. It was damn spicy. Being an indian I eat a lot of spicy food, but it's more spicier than I expected. I don't blame the staff, the spiciness levels vary from restaurant to restaurant. Overall, it was a good restaurant read more

Came here for lunch today with some friends. I saw there were juice options available and asked the waitress if they were made with fresh fruits. She told me the mango, guava, and passionfruit juice were, but the others would be store bought. I followed her recommendation and ordered mango juice. It was obviously diluted with apple juice or something because I could hardly taste the mango. The caterpillar roll we ordered had "tobico" (tobiko) listed as an ingredient. When it came out, there were maybe 7-10 measly eggs per sushi piece. The other dishes we ordered were chicken based and tasted good but not authentic. read more

Outstanding! From the hostess to the bartender to the waitress to the food. Everything was top notch! Have ordered to go food from here before but this was our first time eating at the restaurant. read more

My family & I go out for Chinese food each year on Christmas Eve. We had a reservation and were seated just on time and had great service! They have a gluten free menu & even a dessert! We will be going back! read more

Ordered delivery 2hrs 10min food still not here may be good and cold. I guess you should eat in here

This place is now my new favorite! We went here for the first time based upon it's reviews and were NOT disappointed. The bartender and wait staff were really friendly and efficient. The food was excellent. The place was really packed on this Friday night, so we expected things to take a little longer. We just enjoyed more cocktails and some appetizers before our meal. My husband had the tuna. I had the house fried rice and my son had General Tso's chicken. Nice portion sizes and reasonable prices. I truly wanted to go back the very next day! read more

Best Asian food in the Fox valley, hands down. High quality ingredients, friendly staff, craft cocktails... all great. And delicious gluten free options! Love the lau chow shrimp, Malaysian curry, and husband says they have the best general tso's chicken he's ever had. Also love the crab rangoons! read more
