    THE MOST DISGUSTING CHINESE FOOD I have ever tasted! First off, their taro shrimp cakes stated there was pork for the single order, and the bulk order stated only shrimp, taro, and scallions... I called before placing an uber order for the item. The person who picked up said it was a mistake and to call back tomorrow. I placed my uber eats order for: Mongolian beef (way too spicy and meh meat), sizzling rice soup (which I never received the soup/broth for and a foul smell coming from the seafood solids that did arrive), taro pancakes (which were mushy yet burnt and tasted nothing like a seafood pancake), crab Rangoon (yet another extremely pungent smell with what appeared to be ravioli that was deep fried to look like a wonton wrapped), and shrimp dumpling (with an extremely thick dough and rubbery shrimp). Gross! Do not go here!

    Ginger cafe is a pretty cool restaurant that offers a cool combo of Chinese/fusion food and...dim sum! If you are looking for this sort of combo, Ginger Cafe is the place for you! Food is decent, not super pricey, I would come back.

    Great ambiance, very quick service. We ordered 2 lunch specials. Chicken chow mein and Basil Chicken. Basil chicken came with a choice of white rice or egg fried rice. Chicken tasted great, flavorful with plenty vegetables, but the egg fried rice was a lil bland and dry. Chicken chow mein was very well done, chow mein had right texture.

    Was craving some chow mein and this was the perfect spot! We each got a lunch special and enjoyed our dishes. Our waiter was attentive, the food came quickly, all around great service.

    Ginger cafe is a neighborhood family favorite! Any time I'm visiting my grandparents and we want dim sum, we head over to Ginger Cafe! We have eaten nearly every dumpling on the menu and we have tried many of the entrees as well. Everything we have tried is tasty and of great quality. The service is always quick and friendly too, which is quite a bonus! If you're looking for an Asian restaurant with excellent dim sum, Ginger Cafe is your spot!

    Easy to find and easy to park here. I'm very familiar with the location in Gilroy so I was excited to try this location too. The menu looks the same. I got the crab cake appetizer which was kinda mediocre like a regular crab cake in a won ton wrapper - not really very crab tasting. The squid ink lobster dumplings were really good. Also they had lunch specials so I got my favorite shrimp dish as a lunch special and it was a good portion of food for one. I did the upcharge $1.50 to add a salad and it was a pretty generic salad and covered with fried bits so I'd probably pass on that. The soup they serve it with was decent.

    We utilized Ginger Cafe's catering services and beverages package for our wedding on 1/6/2024. Their food was so delicious that everyone who attended still talks about it today. Not only was their food delicious but their service was top notch. The servers would approach us (the bride and groom) during cocktail hour to make sure we had the chance to eat the appetizers. We were served first during dinner to make sure we had enough time to eat before getting busy with everything else. They made sure that we were well fed throughout the night. (The photos in this review do not include all 10 dishes and 3 appetizers that were offered but trust that they were all delicious!) Not only was service great on the night of, but communication was great leading up to the event. Bo went above and beyond when there was miscommunication with the venue about whether they could cook on site or not. We are so grateful for that because we wouldn't have known what to do otherwise. Overall, we would highly recommend Ginger Cafe to our friends for their catering services alone. We will definitely stop by the restaurant every now and then to try out the rest of their food!

    The food is very disappointing -- as bad as it can get. The Shrimp dumpling skin broke when I picked it up. I'd call it "fake Chinese Food".

The combination of meat, veggies and the exterior crispy pancake created such an outstanding tasting effect. The lamb dish had one of the most tender meats I've tasted. The brown sugar sticky rice cake was soft inside and hard outside; with just the right amount of sweetness. Service was ok. They should've been kinder and more grateful.

There was no line for us to be seated. I was able to flag down a server to seat us since they seem to be extremely busy cleaning tables and servicing others. The hotpots are full of ingredients and the broth has always been tasty. Unfortunately, the meats seem to be overcooked. Prices have been going up over the years where only the monthly special is enticing for the value. Servers were friendly and checked in on us, but it took 25 minutes for our food to show up at our table after we ordered. The only consistent experience I've had are the oranges at the end of the meal. They are always amazingly sweet, juicy, and comes off the peel easily. I don't usually enjoy oranges, but I love the ones HomeEat offers! Will be back if in the area, but hope kitchen service will be quicker in the future.

We knew to go early, since they don't take reservations and we often see lines outside. We arrived at 10:30am and the front manager said if we can be done my 12:30, that they had a table for us. Party of 12, since we got there early, we agreed. The side room had the biggest round table for us. They ask you what kind of tea you want, we like chrysanthemum tea. You order the items on the paper menu and it comes to your table. So we got going on the orders and TBH, we must be hungry, because we did a lot of orders (we had plenty of left overs). Tried some favorites and a few new items that we thought were unique to their restaurant. My dad has to order crispy noodle and chow fun, and we also ordered chicken fried rice. The service was prompt and attentive, with enough servers to take care of the side room. Since it was the "sun room", the sun was shining through the windows and it was bright. Review from my parents: it was just meh, they prefer the other place near our house. I think the food is good, but probably won't come back again with a big group of us, since they don't have many big round tables. And personally, I prefer the whole experience of the ladies coming around with their carts. Perhaps their dinner menu is also worth trying. Bonus for us is that we can literally walk to this restaurant. Parking could be an issue if you come later.

Ironically, I'm not a fan of them myself--they're a bit too eggy for my taste. When it comes to dim sum quality and service, I honestly prefer Koi Palace. The food quality there is more consistent, and the service is much more phenomenal. The only things this place really has over Koi Palace are the lower prices and those black sesame custard buns my friend loves! I've been here at least a dozen times, and the food can be hit or miss. Sometimes dishes come out cold, like they've been sitting out for a while instead of being served fresh and hot. That said, there are a few items we always order that are consistently good when brought out fresh like salted crispy pork chops, siu mai, shrimp rolls, and fried calamari. Be prepared for a wait on weekends since it gets crowded. If you're coming with a large group, it's best to arrive before noon. The restaurant is located next to a hotel, and finding the restroom can be confusing since it's inside the hotel. Service is also pretty minimal--they seem understaffed, and I almost always have to flag someone down just to get basics like soy sauce, chili, and water. I don't understand why they don't just have the sauce on the table for guest to dip, but I get that they're saving $ on controlling the cost down. On my most recent visit, the experience really went downhill. Our table had food but no soy sauce, chilli nor water, and when I flagged a waiter multiple times, he got visibly annoyed and irritated. It was frustrating--we shouldn't have to chase someone down repeatedly for basic condiments. Being met with attitude for that honestly left a bad impression. That experience alone makes me reconsider coming back. Good food at a good price is one thing, but poor service--especially to that extent--can really ruin the overall experience.

The restaurant looked pretty much the same as I remembered. Arrived soon after they opened at 11, we were told to pick our table. The dim sum push cart came around very quickly after we were seated. We were not given the menu, just ordered dim sum items from the cart. We shared a total of 8 or 9 items; most of them were pretty tasty with decent ingredients. Shrimp dumpling - Large, the skin broke on some Siu-Mai - good / ok Tofu skin roll - one of our favorites Chicken feet - four large chicken feet, plump, tender and tasty. excellent Shrimp rice roll - good, portion is on the smaller side Steamed rice in lotus leaf - good Turnip cake - large pieces, texture is on the harder side Egg tart - very good Although I appreciate the dim sum push carts as it's more traditional but probably because the first batch of items sat for a while in the cart, they were not as hot as I'd like compared to 'cook to order' places. The restaurant filled up nicely around noon which is good to see, dishes from regular menu we saw on other tables looked interesting and served in good portions. Overall, we had an enjoyable lunch with good tasting food and friendly service, price is comparable to other restaurants in the area. Easy parking is a plus. Would like to come back and try the regular menu items.

Would've preferred a spicier soup, and noted it didn't have that wok hei, similar to other Korean places. Overall a decent bowl, and the best dish we had. Kan pung gi - first time eating this dish but it was a lot sweeter than expected. There was a bit of a crunch, but nowhere as crunchy as other Korean fried chicken places. Meat itself didn't have much flavor either. A disappointment, but part of it was our preference in taste as well. Green beans - really dry and some were undercooked. Not really much flavor in the dish. Biggest disappointment. Service - we never got check ins, unless we flagged someone down - not usually a big deal, but it was hard to flag anyone down when we wanted drinks and our check. They also kept mixing tables up, and tried to give other table's orders to us three times. We also never got our banchan refills, even though they took it away early on in our meal. Ambiance - a run of the mill small restaurant, nothing fancy. Parking is tight in the back. Didn't have much of a wait on Sunday at 7:30pm.
