    Brown rice.
    Jeff K.

    Our first time here, we made reservations for a Friday evening. Good thing as it was busy. We ordered the Mongolian grille, a plate of Crab Rangoon, and edamame. For drinks we had hot sake and a Peach Bellini. The appetizers were really good. The same was warm, but not hot enough. I should have sent it back. The food and oil choices were great. Besides a few seafood choices, they had beef, pork, chicken, and sausage. Lots of veggie choices, too. The oils choices were plenty.

    Peanut Butter Chicken

    Next time I'm in Lincoln, I'm coming back here! I attended a bachelor party in Lincoln, and our last stop in the City was catching dinner here. We were able to change our reservation schedule for a party of 8, and they helped do everything they could to accommodate. We were seated about 10 minutes after our improvised reservation time on a Saturday night. Service was well-paced. The menu has many different options, but as always, the peanut butter chicken caught my eye. The flavor of the food was phenomenal, while the chicken itself was more tender compared to most other classic chicken dishes. I loved the aesthetics, felt cared for, and the food (although a little more upscale) was worth the price. I cannot wait to be back in the future and to try something else!

    What a gem in this small town :) My sister and his bf been raving this place for quite awhile now. They've been telling me of how affordable this spot is for a AYCE Mongolian BBQ. I lived in LA, so we have a lot in here, but for less than a $20.. it's unheard off. So when I visited my sis for the first time, I cannot wait to try this place out. Couple of months later..... I visited my sis and my first dinner in Nebraska is in here. The first thing I noticed of how fancy this place looks like. Like damn! The place looks super fly with its own bar and they serve Japanese food, as well. Although, I am not here for that.. I am curious. Of course, we ordered their AYCE self serve Mongolian BBQ. Typical Mongolian bbq set up.. you got your bowls and fill it out with meat, veggies and sauces. The unique way I order this.. I don't put any noodle or carb like ingredients.. just straight up meat. Btw they have a seafood meats too such as shrimps, scallops and a damn salmon. What?! An AYCE salmon meat for under $20. Sweet baby Jesus just take my money.. I'm sold! So there you have it! This is my Yelp story why I really like this place :) Overall, I'm 100% going here whenever I visit my sis. PS: Great customer service for the guys manning the grill.. give them a raise :)

    Vegetarian sushi: fried asparagus roll, friend sweet potato, and avocado roll

    Delicious, great waitstaff, a bit of a long wait, but fantastic service and sushi! Will come again!

    Small, tiny sushi

    Absolute smallest rolls I've ever had. Use to frequent this establishment all the time years ago, don't think I'll be going back after how tiny the sushi was.

    Plum wine... plum delicious!

    My review is based on my dinner, the Sashimi Deluxe - 21 pieces of sashimi (actually... 22!). I considered giving a three-star review, but in yelp terms that means A-OK and the sashimi was anything but okay. Some of the fish was okay, but some of it was also questionable. Not so bad that I refused to eat it (I WAS starving!), but enough that made me think, "Hmm... this isn't the freshest of fish". The salmon was a big disappointment. I love the taste of salmon sashimi and especially the mouthfeel. The texture of the salmon sashimi was not like velvet and flavor was missing. The white fish, which I assume was escolar, was not good. I won't go into a description fish by fish, but suffice to say it was not enjoyable. I did get a free California roll thanks to yelp! It was good, a bright spot in the dinner. It was a bit heavy on cream cheese, but hey... who doesn't love cream cheese! The plum wine was very good. The staff was attentive. The menu is huge and there were a lot of people going up to a food bar, putting stuff in bowls and then taking it to chefs to prepare. This area seemed to be the most popular. Perhaps this food is what brings in the crowds, so you might want to check it out. But it you are in the mood for delicious sashimi, this is not the place.

    Pink Lady Roll - 14
    Jessica S.

    Still a fan. I don't get to Ginger often because I don't find myself on this side of town very often. But, I did get a chance to go back and sample the Pink Lady Roll (Tuna,​ salmon, yellow tail, white fish, cucumber, avocado topped with spicy mayo and strawberry sauce). What a yummy roll! The strawberry sauce is a compliment, not overpowering and even turned my sushi hatin' sister into a fan. If you've got your eye on this roll get it!

    What kind of meat are the Korean ribs? If they're pork, can they be switched for beef or even lamb?

    The korean ribs are a beef short rib!! Unfortunately we cannot sub for pork or lamb.

Seating is limited, but it feels cozy and intimate. The staff was outstanding from the greeter to the servers, friendly, attentive, and welcoming. The menu has a great variety, from ramen and teriyaki boxes to rice dishes and sushi. We started with the soft shell crab appetizer, which was incredibly fresh with a light, perfectly crisp tempura batter. For our main course, we went with a selection of sushi, and it was phenomenal. The fish was extremely fresh, served at the perfect temperature, and every flavor paired beautifully. One thing I really appreciated is they don't smother their sushi in sauces, they let the freshness and quality of the fish speak for itself, the way it should. Quite possibly the best sushi in town!!

So we asked again and what do you know. THEY DO HAVE IT. We had to flag down other servers to add items to our order. We got a blank state from all staff, zero personal attention or acknowledgement. ZERO SMILES or basic human decency for their patrons. Sushi was okay. If you actually like sushi and eat it a lot this place won't impress you. Huge menu of the same 3 fish offered in different combinations. Some of which didn't taste fresh. The Jalapeño appetizer was raw jalapeño and unmelted cream cheese that was served cold when marked it as being "deep fried". Horrific service will keep me from giving this business my money in the future.

They dont have all drinks on the menu and the menu is not updated. They did tell us what was not available but was a generic dont have these and just slid his fingers on the menu. I finally got an iced lemon tea. We initially ordered egg rolls and a hot pot. We ordered spicy soup together with bok choy fungus( wood ear mushrooms) Beef, spam, fishballs and jumbo shrimp and egg noodles with a side of white rice. The soup came with a burner and it wasnt powerful enough to boil the soup on the pot. The pot had no definite style to it. Tasted like soy bean soup with some sichuan peppers. Not excessively spicy and not very flavourful. Our ingredients took a long while to come out- and our egg rolls eventually never came. Practically all the ingredients were frozen with the exception of the fungi and the egg noodles. The sauce station looks thrown together with takeout containers and plenty of sauce. The bbq sauce had part of a spoon which was broken off in the sauce. The sauces are similar to haidilao type just not as fresh. But the chives looked a little greyish. Overall, service is not fantastic. We did remind them multiple times about the egg rolls, but it still didn't ever arrive. They at least took it off the bill. We forgot to check about the missing bakchoy. Not sure we will be back anytime soon. Hubby wasn't quite happy with our dinner last night.
