    A bunch of delicious food
    Danielle D.

    The food here doesn't make me sick everrrr. I have been coming here for years. The inside is very cute & peaceful for dining, the prices are $ veryyyy decent , they have a small bar anddd they have the best wonton chips with duck sauce ever. Deff one of my go to places for take out BY FAR.

    Crab rangoon
    Andrea P.

    In search of the perfect spot for Chinese. It was middle of the road. We got chicken pad thai, boneless chicken fingers, crab rangoon and dumplings. The crab rangoon was very good. I won't order from anywhere with crappy ones. The dumplings however were really greasy, we ordered fried but now I'm wondering if we got steamed by mistake. The boneless chicken fingers were pretty over fried. Overall not terrible but I've had better so had to give it three stars.

    General Tso Chicken White Meat
    Chinese Food I.

    2 1/2 stars. Today for lunch we did take-out from Red Ginger in Johnston. They have been around for 20 or so years now. The last time I had Red Ginger was in or around 2009/2010 I knew exactly what to expect, and what I expected is exactly what I got. They do a good job with their General Tso and Pork Fried Rice. We also did a round of Steamed Dumplings. I can't measure places by their Dumplings as it wouldn't be fair. To put it short I like what I like, not top priority at Red Ginger. They are good, but not the best out there. They have served the Johnston area with pride for many years. Red Ginger is a nice place with a really great & friendly staff. Red Ginger is a solid restaurant. They are uniquely themselves, they have great reviews on the internet, and a loyal following. Enjoy, ChineseFoodInRI.com

    Found actual maggots in my beef teriyaki! This place doesn't even deserve half a star!!!

    Red Ginger Special Chow Mein and the Salty Shrimp/Squid combo. Yum.

    Can't complain - food is always good. Came for lunch early Saturday with my sister. The only problem is it's located in a small strip on a busy street with other store fronts with limited parking so parking can be a hassle. We ordered the chicken corn soup, not too many places make this so we always get it when we come. Nice velvety texture full of corn and chicken bits..yum. For entrees, we had the Red Ginger Special Chow Mein and the Salty Squid/Shrimp combo. The Chow Mein is our usual here - done just right, crunchy veggies, nice combo of meats poured over a bed of crispy noodles that soften over time. The salty squid/shrimp wasn't what we were expecting, thought it was going to be a lighter not so floury batter but still tasty enough with a little kick. We were the only ones in there and my 2 yr old nephew was a bit angsty but they were very accommodating - service was great! Nothing calms down a 2 yr old like a free fortune cookie, lol.

    Do you always offer hair cuts between cooking meals? This is absolutely unsanitary!
    Jamie W.

    The new owner turned this place into a unsanitary place to eat! I was going to place an order until the pictures of maggots in there food was on Facebook from a very realiable source! Then tonight they are cutting hair in between prepping meals!

    Only got the vegetables not the noodles. Disappointed to say the least. I checked to makes sure I ordered what I wanted and it should of came with noodles.

    Beetle on the piece of [10. Chicken with Cashew Nuts]

    I hate to give bad reviews but BUGS in my food from Red Ginger has brought me here. I ordered cashew chicken for delivery and was on my third bite. It was delicious by the way, but not good enough to hide a beetle in my food. I'm sure they make other great dishes but that doesn't take away from the lack of hygiene and cleanliness. I'm scared to go back :(

So tonight, we ordered $125 of takeout and one of the rolls should have been GLUTEN FREE & it was NOT. I called for a CREDIT and they said they can't credit my card. I asked for a Manager and the woman I was speaking with said, "I am the Assistant Manager". I then asked to speak to the General Manager but she told me, "He is BUSY in the kitchen". I said, "I drove 15 mins up and 15 back, but he was too busy for me"? Then she said, "Oh, he just left the building". At 7:55 pm, I am expected to believe the Manager left a busy restaurant - I don't believe that!! At this point, I didn't want the CREDIT, I just won't return. Too bad too, because the other rolls were good - I do have other options and I will exercise those options! ***HEI PLACE ORDER*** Hei Place Roll *Gluten Free French Crunchy Roll Angel Dream Roll Yami Roll Ocean Roll Tuna Maki Roll Pineapple Fried Rice Fried Ravioli ===$125.28.

Staff greeted us and got to see it real quick. We and another party was only ones there lunch time. Probably more take out than dine in. Menu selection was huge, so much to choose from. My gf is from china so picked out some noteworthy dishes to try and they did not disappoint! 4/5 stirfry bacon with bamboo shoots was excellent. The bacon is more like the fatty cross section of pork that's thinly sliced. It had a smoky flavor to it which mixes well with the crunchy bamboo and peppers. The spice level was also just right to give the dish a good kick. 3.5/5 fried intestines were also good but just didn't hit as well as the other dishes. Maybe just not crunchy enough. At least also spiced well. 5/5 Salted egg yolk with tofu... I could not stop eating this dish with rice. I don't know what kind of tofu they were using, but it was super silky, but it was also maintaining its form really well in firmness so doesn't break apart in contact. The salty egg yolk flavor balances out with the tofu and rice. It's so it's like a comfort food for me. 4.5/5 beef with Longhorn peppers, definitely on the spicy side, which I love. This dish was a bit softer than normal, but I was fine since we had rice to go with it. The beef strands mixed well with the thin sliced peppers so it was easy chew and the spice packs a punch. Overall, I love this place and will definitely come again when I'm around the area. The menu is so huge that I feel like I have to come back multiple times just to try 80% of the menu.

    I wanted something different for dinner and this place has been on my list to visit for a while…read more There were plenty of parking spaces to choose from. When we went inside, there was only one other party there and no music, so just whispers and the sounds of utensils against plates. There are about 4-5 booths and 1-2 regular tables to choose from. Since l am not familiar with Sichuan cuisine, I had Al help me choose my dishes. I went with the dumplings in chili sauce, fried rice, eggplant in garlic sauce, and chongquin chicken. While we waited, we were given water. The dishes came out at different times. They first served us the dumplings which were really good. The sauce they were in did have some chili sauce, but it was mostly like a sweet soy sauce and really tasty. It came with about 6 dumplings with a perfectly cooked wrapper and filled with flavorful pork - simple but delicious. Next was the eggplant. I was expecting a heavy garlic presence, but it was more like a sweet and sour sauce. The eggplant was very tender, but really hot so we had to wait to let it cool down a bit. The rice came after. I honestly think this was one of my favorite dishes since it was perfectly cooked, great flavor, and good portion. Lastly, the chicken came out. There was a large pile of chicken, but half of it was peppers. The chicken was cut into little bite sized pieces, each fried perfectly. Some pieces were more tongue numbing than others but it was nothing aggressive; very gentle and comfortable numb. I would have liked if there were music, but the no music was fine too; an escape from chaotic reality. Our total was around $50, which wasn't bad for the amount of food we got. I would come back to try other items.

At first glance, you don't see much from Elmwood Ave, but veer to the right and everything opens up on the left, with a parking lot in the back. Ornate statues lead you to the entrance, and once inside you are instantly greeted with bold colors and beautiful art everywhere. I wanted to take the opportunity to try some Cambodian food, so after some quick research, I opted for Beef Lok Lak, which happened to be one of the lunch combos. I chose fried rice and nime chow for my lunch options and settled back to wait for my feast. They bring you a complementary pot of hot tea, which I enjoyed. I believe it was a straightforward unsweetened black tea. Perfect for me. Before long the rangoons arrived. I literally said "wow" when the runner set my plate down. Beautiful golden brown, small bubbles visible all over the outside, promising crispy goodness. And it delivered. What I didn't expect what the slight chewiness to the wrapper that enhanced the experience. The filling was super creamy and delicious, but I prefer my rangoons with scallions as well. However, that didn't stop me from enjoying every bite. Then my lunch came. The beef was perfectly cooked, the dressing tangy and peppery. The nime chow was herby and super fresh as it should be. And the rice had this extra depth of flavor that made me think of tomato paste? A lovely addition the dish. I had a great meal here and the rangoons are definitely worth having! I'm looking forward to coming back and trying more of their menu!!
