    Mango chicken at top, Kung Lao tofu at bottom. Yum!
    Lara K.

    We are hooked on this place. Food is excellent, decor and ambiance are a notch above the usual, and service is stellar! I love how easy and clear the menu is. Flavors are great. We've loved the Soya broccoli with tofu, mango chicken, Singapore noodles, pork potstickers and basically everything we've tried. Plus, we're fans of the twins who run the place. They are super personable and helpful - and wow, do they hustle! My hubby and I think they should rename it Twin Ginger in their honor. We are regulars now - we can't stay away!

    The food is absolutely delicious and presentation is top-notch. Our server was courteous and informative. The dining area is clean and has room for large parties. I would absolutely recommend coming here for dinner or lunch. It's well worth it.

    Wonton Soup
    Andy D.

    My wife and I have been coming to this location for years and it's never been as good as it was last night. Wild Ginger finally gets it right! I started with a bowl of Wonton Soup. It was the best I've ever had. There were plenty of wontons and they were LOADED with deliciousness. California Roll came next. Fresh and absolutely delicious. Chicken w/ Cashew Nuts for my entree and SURPRISE - it was so good! FRESH ingredients. The fried rice that came with was so, so good. The texture of the rice was perfect. I am blown away by how good everything was. I've come to expect nothing better than average from this location but it looks like an ownership and name change was all they needed. I can't wait to go back!

    I was craving good sushi again, so went back last night and ordered the sushi and sashimi for two. It did not disappoint! The fish is so fresh and has perfect texture. The selection included more than the usual salmon and tuna - we love the suprise goodies! So darn good! And -of course- the service is top knotch every time. Tempura icecream was a fun way to top it off.

    I took my daughter to lunch here today and it was absolutely amazing. From the service to the food to the experience everything is wonderful 10 out of 10 I It was such a peaceful atmosphere! Will definitely be coming again. This is some of the best sushi I've had in Columbus.

    We had an amazing time at Wild Ginger! Everything was sooo fresh, made to order, and the food was so good I almost forgot to take pictures! The sushi recommendations were spectacular, the general Tso was perfect, and the craft drinks were phenomenal! Absolutely cannot recommend enough! The plum wine and margaritas were a must!

    Giving three stars because the service was really good, but man I was disappointed by the food - which I would give a 2.5. The reviews were so good so I arrived with a full appetite and sadly still left hungry. The positive - the wonton soup was excellent! Definitely the best I've ever had. Everything else left much to be desired. I also ordered the spring rolls and teriyaki chicken with fried rice. The spring rolls were good at first bite but there was a strange aftertaste we couldn't pinpoint. Still not entirely sure if it was the actual spring roll or the sauce with the aftertaste. The teriyaki chicken was so bland. It looked absolutely delicious so it was disappointing to realize there was no flavor. My cousin ordered the general tsos chicken and shared the same sentiments about her chicken tasting bland. I agreed upon trying as well. The fried rice also didn't seem fried? It actually just tasted like it was covered in butter but was definitely missing the soy sauce. And the mixed vegetables tasted freezer burnt. Overall I'd give 3 stars just for the really great service but probably wouldn't return for the food.

    General tso chicken: Not too sweet which is good, but could use more flavor. We got take out, so got a bit soggy

    Food was ok. Could use more flavor They took our order 30 mins prior to closing, which was good

    Stopped in for Sunday lunch - it was delicious! A large space with plenty of tables for groups of all sizes - it's casual but very clean. The wait staff was attentive and knowledgeable. And our food was great! I got the sesame chicken with white rice and the salad. I really appreciated the all white meat chicken - it was moist but the outside was crispy and not overly breaded. It was on the sweet side but not something I minded. Others in my group got the Szechuan chicken and General Tso - both were a hit too, and on the spicy side if that is more your taste palate! Would definitely come back.

    My girl and I stopped here Christmas Day (very few places were open) and I'm upset with myself for not trying this place sooner. I live a mile away and drive by here a thousand times. My business partner said she ate here and it was amazing, so I was excited they were open on Christmas. Beyond impressed!! I was in "EAT EVERYTHING" mode so we ordered the Fried Gyoza, Salt n Pepper Calamari (amazing!!), Beef Yaki Udon and she had the Asian Grilled Chicken Wild Ginger. The Gyoza was cooked perfectly and dipping sauce exactly as I like, little sweet and salty. I have a shellfish allergy but Calamari doesn't bother me and I love the Salt n Pepper flavors. Huge pieces of squid fried in a batter that literally had me addicted at first bite. The diced onions and green pepper on top added to the eye as well as the taste. Definitely my favorite. My beef Udon noodles had a nice brown sauce and tender pieces of beef. Again just perfect. Her Asian Grilled Chicken with Thai Curry...now I wish I had gotten it!! Flavor TOWN. Amazing with brown rice. I finished mine and the rest of hers lol. So today is Wednesday and I finished working early, so I wanted to stop by again. My go-to, General Tso chicken, brown rice and Miso soup. This place doesn't miss!!! All white meat lightly battered (more chicken, less breading) with the sweetest sticky gingery sauce meshed perfectly with the brown rice. I was going to take an "after" pic of my plate but I'll hold back lol. I live close to the Polaris Mail so I've always went to Molly Woo's. The food there is good ands service is always great. I've officially found my new favorite place for Chinese. You can't beat the quality of food, attentive service, ample parking and full service bar. Extensive menu also includes impressive sushi selection. Stop and try Wild Ginger. Let me know if you agree!

    I arrived at noon and the parking lot was already pretty full for this very unassuming Chinese…read morerestaurant from the outside. There is plenty of free parking which is nice. When I walked in the atmosphere was great, I could smell good food and heard conversations. There's a large area with large round tables to right and to the left are booths and almost all of them were full. The menu was a mix of Americanized Chinese, traditional Chinese and included Dim Sum as well. There were a number of dishes we didn't know much about and there were dishes being enjoyed by other customers that looked delicious. The wait staff was more than happy to explain the dishes and/or show us on the menu what someone was eating. They took very good care of us and shared the tasks of bringing our food, filling water, and just checking in. Now the food. The food came out very quickly! We all received a well filled bowl of rice. First out was the string beans, perfectly cooked, not droopy, and the flavors of garlic and hot peppers. Even though the peppers were there the heat was not overpowering at all. Next was the shredded pork with garlic sauce. The textures of the pork and bamboo shoots were a nice contrast and the sauce was perfectly balanced and craveable. The special grilled lamb, I was told, was some of the best in the city. It was tender and well spiced. Even when he said he was full he just couldn't stop eating it. For the dim sum order we got the shrimp dumplings, soup dumplings, scallion pancake, and sesame balls and they brought a soy sauce and a chili oil with them. The shrimp dumplings were tender but the dough was pretty sticky. I think this is normal and they were tasty with some of the oil on them. The scallion pancakes were very thin and gummy, this is the only thing we ordered that I would not get again. The soup dumplings were very small but packed a lot of flavor. The dough did stick together a bit so unfortunately some of the soup did leak out. The sesame balls were the hit and we're just the right amount of sweetness that we considered them desert. They were large, at least 2" in size, with a wonderful sesame seed covered exterior and a soft, sweet center. Chuan Jiang Hao Zi is a wonderful somewhat hidden gem. If you want traditional Chinese cuisine including all the different offal they have it and I would totally try it here over anyone else if I was brave enough. Portions were a good size for the price. I highly recommend checking them out!

Quick and attentive service. We started with crispy dumplings (6), crispy egg rolls (2), and a scallion pancake. Bing, their crepe, wasn't available our night. My dining companions loved the pancake - for me perhaps a bit too much drizzled sauce. It was helpfully quartered when brought to the table so sharing was easy. The dumplings were indeed crispy and probably my favorite with a standard dark dipping sauce. The egg rolls were standard and perhaps a bit undersized and over fried, but a good creamy dipping sauce was a pivot away from the sweet chili sauce that usually accompanies such apps. Ramen is clearly the focus of the menu and three of us had ramen with chicken and one with pork. They spoke favorably of the broth and the combos of mushrooms, boiled egg, greens. I had the rice vermicelli with chicken that they called a salad. I was expecting the classic Vietnamese staple but this one had some adaptations, perhaps to a fusion or one might say less ethnic nod. Small things but the ample portion served in a small bowl made it hard to mix the rice noodles, lettuce, carrot, cucumber and chicken that is a common approach to the dish after drowning all the ingredients in both sweet sauce (nuoc cham), siracha and/or hoisin sauce. It only came with the nuoc cham. They brought Siracha when I asked for it, but I'm a fan of having these condiments on the table standard. Again, had the sense that the business lunch crowd that is probably the primary audience isn't likely to be as focused on the more authentic ingredients. The chicken was also not grilled and sliced but had a pleasant preparation. Just know it won't be the charred flavor that is so common. Finally, not to obsess on this one dish, but cutting the lettuce leaves more would enable easier chop sticks combos of the ingredients in single bites. Overall it worked for us. I am definitely the most focused on (my companions would say obsessed) on connection to what these dishes should be. If adaptations work well for you, Tiger+Lily likely will as well.

We were greeted and seated quickly and service was very friendly. As we were hungry, we took a mi Ute to decide what to order.

Seriously those wontons are one of the best things in the whole city. They're SO good I could eat a few orders of those alone and be happy. Egg rolls are nice, but just a simple egg roll. Nicely crispy and tasty with the spicy mustard. The Sichuan sliced beef was the perfect thing for a chilly rainy dinner. We love spicy so I'm a bad judge of heat level, but this is spicy but a numbing spicy. Lovely spooned over steamed rice. The cabbage and bean sprouts were my favorite bits in this dish because they added a crunch. Might ask for extra next time!

It is a bit out of the commercial sprawl at the corner. Look for the food truck, that's the first thing I saw, and it helped me find where to turn in. I wasn't sure if there would be dine in, but there is, plenty of seating inside and out. Inside there are seats at the counter, plus booths, plus I think a couple tables. Menu is pretty basic: hibachi and a few sides. I got steak and chicken, with fried rice, and you pick two vegetables so I picked cabbage and bean sprouts. You get a Yum Yum sauce, and you can add others, but I didn't need them. And the sauce container they gave me was plenty big. The steak was tender and perfectly cooked, the chicken was tender and flavorful, cooked in a nice sauce. The fried rice was great. The vegetables were perfectly cooked. And it all came out in about five minutes. They had a steady stream of carry out customers, but they still got mine on the grill, apparently as soon as I ordered it. Fast and good, and competitively priced for hibachi. A big portion, but not a huge, two days' worth of leftovers portion. But I was stuffed and couldn't finish it all.
