I recently went with a large group and they treated us so well! I called ahead and gave them a heads up so we wouldn't overwhelm anyone. They helped separate checks for everyone and explained menu items to those who hadn't been there before. The food was delicious and all had a great time! read more

We got there about half after they opened and no one was around. We waiting for a while before anyone realized we were there. The calamari was the best I've had in awhile, but the tofu Hot Pot said it would be spicy, it was not... AT ALL, it was pretty bland. My boyfriend's kung pao trio was decent but I did not expect the sweetness in the sauce. The ambiance was very nice though, soft music and open space. However when more people showed up, the sound bounced off the walls. read more

Went at the perfect time, between lunch and dinner. Lots of Togo orders going out. I had the bulgogi and it was a nice spring type feel meal and it was delicious- sorry no photo. Dumplings were yummy (and I don't normally eat them) the Mongolian beef was great, on the spicy side if you like that as well. Our server was very nice and knowledgeable about the menu as well as prompt. We highly recommend this place and will be back! read more

Best General Tso and Pad Thai. Service was great. Appetizers was good. Definitely will be back when we are in the area.

This place was absolutely fantastic. Reasonable prices. The food had so much flavor and the staff is very helpful and polite. Will come back again read more

Food was very good. Went there because they had a special menu for Lunar new year's Our server was very nice read more

Take out-General's Tso's chicken with broccoli and small shrimp fried rice. No flavor in the chicken-a mildly sweet sauce covering it. Large chunks of chicken as tough as I can make at home-they clearly forgot or do not know how to velvitise chicken-I can get this at Costco. No flavor or character at all. Shrimp fried rice was at best mediocre. So sorry cause it used to be much better-changes in ownership will do that-not unexpected. read more

the sweet sour chicken is the worst asian representation i have ever had.. don't order that. crab rangoon's were barely cooked. This place taste like it's missing asians . read more

Most places in Appleton doesn't surprise me. I went and met up with a friend here for brunch buffet. It wasn't an all out buffet but they had certain menu items established. To my surprise everything from the fried rice, eggroll, soup, and appetizers were great! Fried chicken was fried to perfection. Fried rice had a nice hint of wok smokiness! I was so amazed I went back and their sushi which was decent, but every other dish that they served from their special item of "golden peking duck" was. Hit! Curry tasted great, and their padthai was wet and not dry in which I loved! Highly recommended read more

I enjoyed a wonderful night out with my family. It's been a year or so since the last time I was here, and since we are a family that loves Asian food, we decided on GingerRoots. The food and service were excellent. Both me and my niece had the chicken lo mein, and my wife had the General Cho's chicken, my sister had the tofu shrimp pot, my father had the Aji tuna, and my other niece had the Mandarin chicken. We also had the calamari for our appetizer and both the chocolate and deep-fried cheesecake for dessert. The food was excellent as always. read more

Gingerootz has an interesting menu, I'd like to try more stuff on it. I love their Crab Rangoon. Cute inside too with good service.

I would not recommend this restaurant for lunch. We arrived at 11 AM as they opened and we're not acknowledged by anyone for nearly 10 minutes. The lunch menu is very limited. The food was bland and entrées were served with lukewarm scoop of white rice. read more

Gingerootz is worth it only if you are looking to have a nice night eating out. Their ambiance is wonderful and the service is good. The food is good, if a bit overpriced at times. I usually get the customizable noodle bowl. However, my family and I have had several bad experiences with ordering takeout with them. They have gotten our order mixed up several times, and the price is not worth the food alone. read more

Great food. Nice restaurant. Fair service. Easy to find. Quiet ambiance. Fair prices.

Went with some friends to GingeRootz. This place has the most delicious Asian food I've ever had. My go to is sweet and sour soup. This was almost thick it had so much stuff in in - in a good way I also had an ell roll called Caterpillar. it too was very tasty. The roll was firm and tall and. again. very tasty Both our friends had Kung Pao triple, which they adjusted to their taste. There was enough for a second meal for each. They also ordered Crab Ragoons, which were less crispy than I'm used to and I thought were excellent. My frien likes them more crispy. My husband had the cashew chicken which he enjoyed. The ingredients in the cashew chicken and the Kung Pao triple were fresh and looked delicious The presentation was excellent. Service was outstanding- professional, knowledgeable, friendly and accommodating. I will be back and recommend you try it too! read more

Second time going here, would recommend!! The Nian Gao was very good. It was very spicy the first time so I got it not spicy the second time. We LOVE the Appleton sushi roll. They have a good variety of items and the restaurant is always very calm and peaceful. Our waitress was so sweet. To end our meal, we got tiramisu and were very impressed! 10/10 recommend! read more

I came here on a first date while I was visiting in town. It's funny my date waited in the parking lot because he was worried. I was going to show up as a man. He picked this restaurant because he thought it was one of the better sushi spots in town. I'll definitely give them props for their creativity. I've noticed a lot of restaurants that are Asian in this town or some sort of fusion restaurant. I have nothing against that. I just know that when you do too many things it's not as good as it could be, if you focused on one. there was definitely a lot of rice on these rolls and it felt like it could I used a little more veggie in it. But overall I thought this was a good place and it seemed fairly popular for the area. read more

Just get the crystal shrimp! You won't be disappointed!! :) lots of other good stuff too, but crystal shrimp is amazing!!

We had the best date night there. Our waiter Skinny was 10/10. The food was tremendous in both flavor and quantity. Skinny added an element of fun to our evening while also being prompt and professional. Definitely planning to go back! read more

Food was marginal. Sticky mush rice. Teriyaki Chicken was thin bland chicken with a brown sauce poured over it. Service was untrained. Out of domestic beer. Overall just not worth trying. Regretted not going to another place. To many good options to waste time on this one. read more

This review is based on 2 take out orders from fooddudesdelivery. So I will not be able to comment on the atmosphere of their physical location like I usually do in my reviews. Service: They have always completed our order exactly how we have ordered it, no errors or mix ups. Food: Let me say this. I LOVE THEIR PORK DUMPLINGS. You can tell that each one is individually produced by hand. The sauce for them is great and the filling has loads of flavor. Fried or steamed, these will always be a staple for me. Their pad thai is a little too saucy for me but the portion size is decent so this is my fiances go to. Their vietnamese spring rolls...they are so expensive and not worth the money.$7.50 for one spring roll?! You can go any where else in Appleton and spend $5 for 2 spring rolls, and my favorite place you get 3 spring rolls for $4.50! My 3 star review breakdown: 2 stars awarded for their amazing pork dumplings, and 1 star for on point order accuracy. read more

Honestly, I haven't been here in a few years -- & the kitchen impressed me, it definitely matured since I've last visited. Who ever made the sushi it was consistent & cared for... the drinks were balanced...the Cha Cha Shrimp or whatever was some serious Gas 10/10. Built our own bowl. Nice portion & all the ingredients across the board were textbook and refreshing. Usually wouldn't give a rats axx to give a review but their kitchen really spoke to my tongue this evening. Nice work. The overall layout of the restaurant does give me a slight headache though. Cheers read more

Always a great experience here! Since COVID, we've gotten food to go at least once a month! I usually get fried rice or beef with broccoli - simple but good nonetheless. This time we got a large variety of sushi and it was all delicious! I haven't had sushi here that wasn't incredible. 10/10 for sure! read more

I refused to believe the new reviews but they are definitely true. Guessing the place has new ownership as the place looks totally different than it used to. Fish tank is gone and they maximized the number of tables they can fit on the floor. I have no problem with a place trying to make more money but they need to have the staff to pull it off and they don't. Concerning the food, egg rolls are different and definitely not as good as before. The dumplings were good but came out ice cold. The pad thai was spicy and didn't even taste like pad thai and the crystal shrimp were okay but the sauce is different and seemed lazy. Even the fried rice wad bland! Our waiter bragged about being the manager then brought out the wrong food too . RIP Ginger Rootz read more

One of my favorite restaurants in the Fox Valley area. Always need to go at least once when I'm here visiting. Went to order take out today - phone has been disconnected and online ordering is not available. Huge bummer. Won't be going back. read more

Absolutely delicious food! Just beware, those heat levels are no joke! :) Even a 2 kicks a nice little punch. The stir fry was amazing and I recommend it. This was a delivery order and everything was warm and the order was correct. read more

I've eaten here a few times, had steady and decent experiences, but tonight was not only out of the ordinary, it was awful. I ordered moo shu pork and stir fried eggplant. It was the worst moo shu I've ever had. The quality of pork was a joke - in the entire dish I probably found 7 pieces of pork and the 3 largest pieces were pure gristle. The remaining pieces were tiny. So essentially I paid $12 for cabbage, eggs, and hoisin sauce. Moo shu is supposed to be pork thinly sliced into slivers - this was just random chunks of meat (gristle, mind you). Just horrible. Don't ever order this dish - or at least don't ever order PORK here. To make matters worse, moo shu is supposed to come with pancakes. Gingerootz gave me tortillas. FOR REAL. Who does that? There wasn't anything redeeming about this dish - just horrible! The stir fried egg plant tasted fine but I don't appreciate ordering a petite size and only getting 3/4 of the take out container filled. Skimpy much? The only reason I didn't rate this meal 1 star is because service was good (as it's usually been) and they didn't mess up my side of brown rice. So what I'm really saying is I feel I've been pretty generous with a 2 star rating. I don't plan to come back for awhile after eating this. read more

Can you find the fish in this sushi roll? Neither can I. My entrée was average, ok. But this roll was a Total rip off, will not be back. This is laughable. read more

Gingerootz Asian Grille - Can you find the fish in this sushi roll? Neither can I. TOTAL rip off. - Asian Fusion Near Me - Appleton, Wisconsin

This was my first dining experience since moving to Appleton and unfortunately the experience was very mixed. We found this restaurant thanks to Yelp while searching for some hot soup and Pad Thai in the area. The Wor Wonton Soup was fresh, delicious and made with high quality ingredients. I was pleasantly surprised that the wontons were made with high quality beef rather than a questionable mix of meats like I've found at some restaurants. Overall, the Wor Wonton soup was a fresh, delicious and our favorite dish of the evening. The Pad Thai was made with a generous amount of egg, scallions, and chicken. There was a sprinkling of peanuts on top, but overall the flavor of the dish was pretty light. I used the chili oil that the restaurant provided to "kick it up a notch." I realize Pad Thai is not meant to be a spicy dish, but it was somewhat lacking in the flavor department. My least favorite dish of the night was unfortunately the one I'd selected: Undon Noodle Bowl with Beef and Vegetables. Maybe this was an off night for the restaurant and the other noodle bowls are quite tasty, but this one was over-cooked and not at all satisfying. It was $4.99 for the Undon Noodles, $3.49 for the Beef, $3.49 to add vegetables, and an extra $1.00 for Garlic Sauce. What did I actually get for that $12.97 dish? Well, it had a thick brown sauce that tasted like soy sauce and lacked any garlic flavor. The vegetables were soggy and completely over cooked. The beef was okay, but not very tender and fairly lacking in flavor. I had a few bites of my Udon Noodle Bowl before finding it so disappointing and non-appetizing that I tossed the rest of it out. Bummer! We may be back when we have a craving for hot Wor Wonton Soup, but I was overall pretty disappointed with the rest of the food. read more

Food is always consistently good. Love the pepper salt shrimp! Service is attentive and reasonably priced.

I want start off saying the food used to be extremely good, we ordered there often and loved it. In the last year it on a path down hill, Sunday nights order was so bad we threw most of it away. the crab Rangoon was dipped in hot oil not browned even a tiny bit. wonton soup was a few slices of carrots some mixed slices of meat 2 shrimp and some noodles , the fr rice was the color of soy sauce and cruncby rice . I am sad and disappointed but will never order again read more

Excellent! We came here on a Saturday for dinner, around 6:30. While they were relatively busy, the hostess got us seated right away, in an intimate portion of the restaurant. The waiter came shortly thereafter and was super friendly and accommodating. So the service is fantastic. Now for the food: We started off with a chicken lettuce wrap. For those that do not know, it's 4 leaves of lettuce you use for the wrap, and then a chicken/vegetable/rice mixture that you put in the wrap. Very good! My wife had the cashew/almond chicken. She loved it. She said it was phenomenal. Very good portion and she got a petite. I had the filet pepper steak with mixed vegetables. That was also amazing! The meat was so tender. We came in with high expectations, and they delivered. It's essentially a higher quality sit down restaurant that serves Chinese. read more

So yummy! We have tried other Asian food places here but this one is a great mix with perfectly large portions and reasonable prices. Their Pad Thai was strange, I would not recommend, but the other items we got were exceptional. I'm gluten free and had no issue with their food after eating. Loved the variety and options. Will return! read more

For a long time we have heard about this place, and driven by it several times. The food here was absolutely amazing. We started off with pot stickers, an Appleton roll (which was amazing).... I got the General Tso chicken. Amazing. Spice level 3. My girlfriend got the spicy ahi tuna salad which was perfection. Our server Clint here was fantastic with an awesome personality. There's nothing to dislike about the rootz. When I go back I'll be sure to eat all my food. I also want to try takeout from here. Fantastic Chinese dining experience in Appleton. read more

Food is alright. Wouldn't really recommend if you're looking for authentic asian cuisine. Most of the dishes use a premade sauce or substitute and it's noticeable. Not a great first date place. For the price they charge it isn't worth it. Plenty of other asian food places where you can get great food for the same price or cheaper. The atmosphere of the restaurant is nice, but thats about all they have. read more

The food is pretty good but the service didn't match. There were a couple groups and it seems they were overcome by these groups, and everyone else suffered. We were there for about an hour and 45 min and still ended up having to get our meals to go because of how slow things were. It took about 20 min just to get our drinks and edamame. Service aside, we got the General Tso's chicken and Kung Pao chicken. Our kids shared an order of the kids noodles with chicken and peas. I could have eaten the kids' food and been completely happy, they loved it as well. Both of the chicken dishes were pretty good but not worth half the wait. If we were to go back we would definitely target an off peak time. read more

Gingerootz Asian Grille - Starting with drinks - Asian Fusion Near Me - Appleton, Wisconsin

We ordered delivery, which took almost 1.5 hours to arrive (we live within a mile of the restaurant). Nothing in our order was complicated as well, which further makes the wait ridiculous. They tipped themselves on our credit card, which was vexing. THEN our order was cold, the chicken rubbery, and servings not befitting the price. I called and was told "someone would make it right before the evening was over." The restaurant blamed the delivery service (Food Dudes), but they claim they waited for over 30 min for our order to be completed. We ended up having to cook something for our children since the food chicken was inedible. I'll follow up when I learn of the resolution. Edit: We were given a credit at the restaurant... while something, I really don't want to go there given this experience so I guess this is to be continued... read more

Terrible service! Granted we ate a a weird time, about 2pm. I think the noon shift was changing, but our server, Octavian, was the worst! While we waited for him to take our order, which seemed like forever, I watched at least 6 other waiter/staff cleaning up their tables and we couldn't get any help. My drink was gone when the waiter finally came by to see what we wanted. The place has some tables and a row of bench seating with smaller tables. I was sat at a beach, which was fine, but the next customers where seated right next to us! It was like we were sharing a table with this unknown couple with an empty seating area all around us. Very weird and very uncomfortable. I do have to say the food was good, but if you want good sushi in Appleton drive up Northland a bit an go to Koreana. Then it was time to play the waiting game to get our bill. By that time Octavian had more than one table to wait on and he was no where to be found. Finally I had to flag him down. No matter how annoyed we seemed he worked at one speed..... WAY TO SLOW! Too bad, the food deserved better than a 2 star, even though I thought it was bait high for serving size and the fact it was lunch in Appleton, WI. The service, on the other hand was really a 1, not just because of Octavian, but the hostess for seating people RIGHT next to each other, and for the manager that could see that we were having a bad experience. read more
