Restaurant is unassuming and tucked away inside a strip mall in Richmond, but has amazing Indian cuisine. We love coming here for the lunch combo deal because it's very cost-effective. My go to is the meat lovers combo which comes with a dish of meat curry (this one was chicken methi), a veggie curry (this one was yellow lentils), rice, naan, and salad. Super filling and really fun to eat! Pretty quiet at 1:30pm on a Saturday afternoon so it was nice to eat a meal with my family, and server was very kind and answered all our questions. read more

I received a coupon from Ginger for 10% off when ordering more than $29 , expiring on May 20, 2026. I poured through the website trying to determine what to order since we had pretty good impression of the food. The website kept glitching today for some reason. The food items wouldn't show up in cart no matter how many times i added them in. Finally, when they showed up and i proceeded to add the coupon code, the website gave an error and said it's already expired. Hello? Today is may 20th, the date specified in your email? What kind of "little surprise" is this LOL. And the thing is, it indicated online order only. Maybe get your website running smoothly first would be nice if you're getting your customers to order online. read more

We did not choose this restaurant but tried it out with another couple. I read the reviews and many were from a long time ago and were quite positive. There was a birthday party going on against one of the walls which was fine. As soon as we entered the door we weee promptly seated. We had reservations, however they were not needed. It was a typical restaurant seating with booths. It was clean but looked a bit tired. The ceiling was black with blue twinkly lights in it. Ok. Drinks were served on time and we ordered a bottle of wine. Came quickly and with an ice bucket. Nice touch as it kept the wine cold. The food was ok. It was not the best Indian food for flavor and taste. I've had better. We ordered garlic and paneer nan. Lots of oil on the garlic Nan but came hot and soft. Ordered double rice. It came in a single bowl. It was enough for four of us. We split the dishes ordering vindaloo lamb, mixed vegetable, a starter was paneer pakora- it was not what we expected so we were disappointed. The chili chicken was quite good. The lamb was over cooked and when it is it is stringy. I've had lamb that melts in your mouth. In all the food did not impress us at all. read more

Not worth your money or time place is so bad the service is absolutely horrible God forbid a white man goes in to order they will help the Indian family that walks in behind you first so do not waste your time here ever read more

Came here for the very first time and it didn't disappoint. First of all, the restaurant didn't smell of strong spices and place is clean. My only comment on its ambiance is that it's too dark. East Indian food is the last on my list but have to say I loved this resto. Every dish has thick and rich sauce I couldn't resist basmati rice and the garlic naan bread. Very happy to have found this in Richmond. read more

=== VERDICT/VALUE Quick review on the run based on a single takeout order: - The food is solid! - Regular naan is good, but garlic? Soooo worth it! - Whole wheat roti made me feel like this meal was healthier :) - So the did aloo gobi - all veg! - Butter chicken is pretty subjective - it has more spice or tang than some other but not overpowering. The prices are reasonable in the post-pandemic inflation age. I am definitely going to try Ginger again - for takeout or dine-in! read more

My new favourite Indian cuisine to go too in Richmond! Their butter chicken isn't as stuffy nor filling yet it's just right and mouthwatering and their fried chicken including their mint sauce is just perfect! It goes amazingly well with the fried chicken! Service is always polite & patience - ambiance is actually quite pleasant and romantic! read more

I think I can proudly say that had the best Indian food on my trip to Vancouver at Ginger. The chicken tikka was amazing. The lamb korma was soft and flavorful and the garlic naans were amazing. Special mention is the yummy mango lassi. The place was pretty neat with soft music in the background and pretty friendly staff. Highlight is once you checkin you get 10% discount. Overall a great experience and food. read more

Looking to get some take out lunch today, I remembered my good friend talking about Ginger's lunch specials. I called ahead and ordered naan, lamb korma, samosas, and their lunch special butter chicken wrap, which came to just a little over $30. The restaurant set up a sanitation area before you enter the restaurant and barriers were set up at the counter. My food took 25 minutes to make and was ready by the time I arrived. The food was still quite warm when I got it home. The samosas were in a paper bag and had a really nice spicy kick. The lamb korma was not spicy at all and had a rich, coconut flavour. I will definitely ask for this to be a bit more spicy next time. The wrap was butter chicken and rice wrapped in naan. I felt that this was mainly carbs and not enough chicken, and pretty dry as well. I liked most of the things I ordered and will definitely try some other dishes next time. read more

When it comes to fruit drinks at East Indian restaurants, I am a fan of the Mango Lassi, essentially it's Mango with yogurt with milk I believe. Carbs...definitely the Naan bread. I had two types of Naan, the original and the Paneer Naan, which consist of stuffed cheese, cilantro and spices. It was a nice touch to have a variety to try a paneer naan, tasty, not over toasted or under toasted, just about right. A Meat Lover special that is preselected by the chefs. 1 appy, 1 meat dish, 1 veg dish, rice, naan, salad and dessert (please view the picture) and a separate dish was the Butter Chicken (please see photo captions for more information). Normally when going to East Indian restaurants, it's either in Surrey or Vancouver, this time around I decided to try out the one in Richmond. Expect to get gassy the same night or the next day or following days, it all depends on everyone's body functions. So please be prepared, you have been warned. LOL...seriously. Most East Indian food are loaded with spices, so if you are well aware of the heat, let the waitress/waiter know to make it mild or no spice at all. The service was good and the food was great. I recommend this place if you are craving East Indian food in Richmond. read more

One of the best Indian cuisine ever. The interiors are not any worse than a high-end restaurant. Chicken tikka, one of the most popular dish with good seasoning mixed with onions and red bell peppers are out of this world. Honey garlic chicken wings that's extra crispy with good seasoning and the meat just fells off the bone. read more

Today, I woke up wanting to try new restaurants and so my boyfriend gave a high recommendation with this restaurant called Ginger. We've passed by this restaurant around Garden City a few times, but never went in... so I decided to give it a try today. Let me tell you when I say, I didn't regret it! I ordered the fish pakora and it was done so perfectly! I ordered Raita along with the fish and it didn't let me down at all! I'm very satisfied with the service and the order! It won't be the last you've heard from me! Also, thank you for keeping your doors open for customers like myself! Thank you for continuing your service and I'll continue to support your business through this hard time! Thank you Ginger! read more

Ginger Indian Cuisine - Fish Pakora - Indian Near Me - Richmond, British Columbia

When you think of Richmond you very rarely do you think of East Indian food, but who knew there was this lovely gem tucked in the city Ginger Indian Cuisine is from northern Indian and they serve a variety of authentic Punjabi food. We ordered the Fish Pakora + Lamb Korma + Butter Prawn + Garlic Naan. The prawns were very meaty and was a nice alternative to the typical butter chicken. The fish pakora and lamb korma are two of my hubs' favourite dishes that he heavily hinted he wanted to try and he was happily satisfied with the two dishes here! The fish pakora was battered nice and light with the right amount of spice. A must get with your dishes is the garlic naan! They are super fresh and flavourful with the bits of garlic and herbs on it. Compared to a lot of the East Indian restaurants I've went previously I find the dishes here are more generous and they also give a good amount of protein in it too! We even had extra to bring home! IMO left over Indian food is THE BEST! Can't want to enjoy them again for lunch tomorrow! read more

SUPER DELICIOUS GEM ALERT. Lately I've been obsessed with Indian cuisine, especially super delicious samosas. Let's just say this restaurant hits the spot perfectly. We have been going here since their old location years ago, and now they are at a way more accessible location with tons more parking and tables! (Take out only due to covid restrictions). * Veg samosas ~ these are bomb! I always have to get them when I'm here. It's huge! 2 pcs and they are full of flavours. The filling is smooth and delicious and that chutney sauce is outstanding! Really ties in the samosa together! It has a super crispy exterior and a lot of filling on the inside. * Rogan josh ( lamb dish ) ~ this is good for those who loves a load of different spices and flavours! Super rich in spices and the lamb was super tender and nicely cooked! It has a thick sauce perfect with rice or naan. * Butter chicken ~ 100% classic must have! Super flavourful and delicious. Not too spicy but super bomb with garlic naan. Chicken is nicely cooked and I love how much sauce there is! * One plain naan ~ can't go wrong with such a classic naan. Mixture of crisp and chewy. Perfect texture to eat with rice, or their saucy dishes! * One garlic naan ~ I can eat like 10 of these! Super addicting and good! This with the butter chicken sauce is bomb! Can't go wrong with the delicious garlic spread on this. * pilau rice ~ this is a nice twist on the basic rice. It has a lot of spices infused into it. I recommend this rice with the lamb dish! * Aloo gobi ~ 100% bomb! The sauce coating the cauliflower and potatoes are so delicious and rich. Good mix with butter chicken and the garlic naan. * 10/10 ~ I honestly love coming here! Probably my go to Indian cuisine restaurant. if you were to ask me where to go, this is the place! read more

My partner was craving butter chicken so we searched around and decided to try Ginger Indian based on their reviews about their butter chicken. We ordered the butter chicken, curry chicken, garlic naan, and the lassi. The butter chicken, garlic naan, and lassi definitely hit the spot. The curry chicken was good, but didn't wow us. Towards the end, I did find some kind of hard metal piece stuck in one of my back teeth and showed the waitress. She said it looked like a piece of aluminum which I acknowledged that it could be, but it was a sharp piece that couldn't be bent. read more

First time trying this restaurant out. We got seated pretty quickly but no servers came over or brought any waters for quite some time. We got the vegetable samosas, chicken tikka masala, rogan josh, garlic naan, roti and some rice. The samosas came out first and I was surprised by the way they looked. It's not your tradition triangle shape. This was round and it sorta looked like a soup dumpling (XLB) but bigger. It was delicious, especially the sauce. I personally don't like lamb, so I found the tikka masala a lot better. Not just because of the meat, but the sauce it came in. Delicious. The garlic naan could've been more garlicky. It was also a little burnt on the other side. Overall, mediocre Indian restaurant and a little pricy for what you get. read more

We went to this restaurant when it was first opened and my wife and I loved it. Their servers have always greeted us warmly and they have a very good lunch special. I do suggest if you don't like a spicy dish then try butter chicken. Their basmati rice, naan, chopped salad and chick peas are to die for. The butter chicken itself is so rich in flavour and sweet in taste. We always order Samosas for starters. It's not a traditional triangle shape as they made it round and big. Stuffed with a lot of flavours inside so this dish might make you half full. I recommend trying the chicken tikka masala with garlic naan. This was my first time trying this dish and I cannot fathom how delicious this dish was. I personally would ask for extra garlic naan because the sauce on this dish is amazing. One small flaw I would say is that the price range for the dishes are a little high. I do understand that maybe due to it being a new restaurant they would want to see where their value in the market place would be. Overall I would give it a 8.5 / 10. Their service, menu and food dishes are great. Prices for the food are pricey and sometimes the naan could have more garlic on it. Will be going to this restaurant again today after a long hiatus. I can't wait ! read more

I ordered some samosas for take out. It was different from most samosas I have tried because there was a salty seasoning coating the exterior of the samosas. The filling had a darker colour from the spice mixed used to flavour the potatoes. This was just an okay tasting samosa because I did not like the salty seasoning. read more

We've been here for lunch before (pre-pandemic age) and my bf was excited to try the butter chicken wrap. They are very affordable at $6, but boy were they disappointing. The wraps were dry and we expected a buttery sauce. The chicken was dry and there were 4 pieces in the whole wrap. I'm not sure how they rolled the wrap because there was tinfoil rolled inside the wrap (as shown in the picture). There was also a beautiful finishing touch - a RECEIPT on my wrap. No, this is no just a receipt on the box or inside the box, this was a receipt on my wrap rolled inside the foil. Beautiful addition. read more

Hard to find good Indian food outside of surrey. There are a couple Indian restaurants in richmond that are good and this is one of them. The interior is clean and does not have that curry-carpet smell that at times other old restaurants have and the floor is not sticky lol. I like the korma over there. read more

Was really lazy on a Saturday night and decided to order some Indian food for takeout and this is really close. We tried the chilli chicken which was decent. Deep fried chicken in sweet and spicy chilli sauce. We also tried the vindaloo chicken and asked for mild spicy and it still kicked my butt (probably wasn't mild..) and the sauce was pretty good. The garlic naan is delicious yummy. read more

4 stars. Have eaten here about 5 times and it's a nice place to come for some Indian food. It's clean and there's always tables available. Food is solid - love the chaat papdi, naan, kebabs, Chana masala, and butter chicken. The samosas and pakora are only so-so here. Good portion sizes. Main downside is the service. It basically consists of them taking the order and dropping it off. Mostly younger female servers who don't have the best attention to detail (e.g. numbers of container bases and lids not matching) and don't do any check in (e.g. often run out of water). That being said, it's a casual meal that comes quickly. Family friendly. read more

The dinner special is a pretty good deal. You get the curry of the day (both time I got butter chicken), a (default) vegetable curry, an appetizer (I got the paneer pakora), rice, raita and a gulab jamun. You also get naan on the size. This is a one person dish and it's a lot. It's below $20. If you can make it for lunch, it's even cheaper. Good quality indian food at a reasonable price. read more

This is not a restaurant that I will ever come back to. I ordered a Biriyani takeout with instructions for NO cut onions in the rice due to allergies. When we opened the packet at home, there were lots of cut onions in the rice. We called the restaurant to inform them but the lady on the phone insisted that I never mentioned that instruction. When I asked to speak to the manager, the line was cut off!! No one called me back even though they have my number. I will never recommend this restaurant to anyone nor will we ever come back here again. read more

We ordered several samosas and a Chicken Tikka Masala just to give the place a try (we've been taking about trying it for ages!)...food did not disappoint. Samosas were delicious - plenty of filling and spiced just right. Only downside was the wrapping was a bit on the salty side. Our Tikka Masala was full of flavor and was done perfectly. Service was prompt (called and food was ready within 20 minutes) and courteous. Will definitely order again from here though next time we're going for a feast!! read more

We tried the lunch meat special for $11 - large plate for small eaters. Took home half my plate. Meal included flavourful butter chicken, chickpeas, four portions of naan bread, and cucumber salad. Masala chai tea comes in a regular cup ( which I find small). Tea was strong but flavourful but I asked for hot water to dilute it, Excellent attentive service by the two waitresses read more

This is probably my second time only having Indian food out so you may not take this review too seriously but I loved this place! It's in a less busy strip mall complex than others in Richmond so it was easy to find parking. I came here on a Saturday evening around 6 and got a seat right away. They mostly have booth seating, two higher tables and some lower tables by the window. Really nice environment. The servers were friendly and service was quick. Got garlic naan ($2), rice ($1.50), butter chicken ($14), and vegetable samosas ($4). All of the food was delicious!!! The samosas are a little bit spicy (great for my tastebuds) but I heard another customer in the restaurant comment on this to her friends. If anything, the chicken was a bit dry since it is chicken breast, but the curry makes everything heavenly :) read more

Ginger makes a great first impression. From the sudo mission statement on the glass panelling on the entry way to the updated and comfortable dining room dripping edgy Indian pop from the ceiling speakers. I'm lunching solo and have the restaurant to my myself as I initially sit down. I'm greeted warmly and ask about the lunch specials. No hesitation by the server, she gives me the rundown, there is a veg or a meat lover's option for 11 bucks. The meat lovers is butter chicken today, so that's what were going with. For the record, I'm not a big butter chicken fan. I just think it lacks the amazing complexities found in a lot of Indian dishes. However, It seems to be a gateway dish into indian cuisine and has many fans. What can I say, butter and cream makes people fat and happy! The dish comes with basmati rice, chick peas, naan, and a chopped veggie salad. I think the salad is red and green peppers and cucumbers in a ranch yogurt sauce. I cant taste the ranch and the cucumber should have been peeled. It's just too much hard skin Ruffage and not enjoyable for me. This might just be personal preference, I'm not sure how others feel. The rice is standard. Now to the chick peas. Not mushy! God I hate mushy chick peas! These chick peas have the firm consistency I love with a decent sauce. Still well below the benchmark for chick peas that is the GM Restaurant in maple ridge but still good. The Naan is more than acceptable as well. So were left with butter chicken. Its sweet, rich and tangy. The kind of flavor great Italian chefs can also create by melding butter and tomatoes in a long steep simmer. Sitting in this love pool are 6 or 7 chunks of beautiful breast flesh. Here, Ginger has overcooked the chicken, leaving some of the pieces dry. Come on Ginger, the sauce is impeccable, don't over cook the chicken! That being said, it's still very good. Thanks Ginger! I will be back read more
