It sure has been a LOOOOOOONG time since we've been to Wild Ginger. I was a little nervous reading more recent reviews telling me the restaurant had gone down hill. Our friend wanted to meet at Wild Ginger and I'm glad she did. We arrived first. I mentioned we were with the party of the person that made the reservation and we were seated. When our friends arrived we learned she requested to be seated in the back. Both of them have trouble hearing and sitting in the back away from the crowd made it easier to hear. The staff accommodated our move from the front to the back with aplomb. I ordered Spring Rolls and Sashimi Deluxe. The Spring Rolls were like a salad in a thin wrapping. The peanut sauce was delicious and overall I felt it was a super healthy choice. The roll filling was crisp and fresh. And now... Sashimi Deluxe. I was so pleased! The sashimi was delicious. Yummy sound-inducingly delicious. Even better was the dish did not include deep red tuna. This type of dense tuna always seems to end up on a sashimi deluxe meal and it is my least favorite. Hat's off to Wild Ginger for skipping it. Every fish was flavorful and melted in my mouth. I'd come back to Wild Ginger for my sashimi fix any day of the week. The miso soup was a bust. It was lukewarm at best and not very flavorful. Mark had Pad Thai. He said it was very good. He always gets Pad Thai when it's available so he has a lot of Pad Thai references for comparison. Wild Ginger again hit the mark. I would not hesitate to return for another delicious meal at Wild Ginger. read more

The place has really gone downhill in the past year. I've noticed a number of small things over time that have made it more and more disappointing to order from this spot, and today I've had two more issues with a recent UberEats order. The attention to detail that used to come through every time I ate here is kinda missing. Today's issue were overpriced summer spring rolls that were already busted open, didn't have any mint in them, but DID have old carrots and cabbage in them. How do I know they're old, some of the lettuce was browning and the carrot strips were browning/dried out. I don't even want to review the sushi roll I got. It's just sad. read more

I had a good experience here. The staff was nice and attentive and the drinks were good. It's not my favorite place for hibachi but it's in my top 5. read more

This was a Mother's Day celebration for our group of 5. We had a reservation and no wait for seating. The server was very friendly; service was a little on the slower side, which made sense given the holiday. I had the Buddha's Delight, minus carrot and broccoli- just had them add extra of the other veggies. It was DELICIOUS! We had crab Rangoons for the table to share and they were probably some of my favorite ones I've had. Even thought it was quite busy, the noise level wasn't terrible. It's a great place for casual meals or that special someone date night. Very clean place and fresh tasting food. I'll be back! read more

Wild Ginger - Buddha Delight with fried rice - Thai Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

The sushi at wild ginger was pretty good. I loved it. The ambiance was dimly lit and I thought it felt kind of cold... I'm not really a fan of dark restaurants, it makes you wonder what they're trying to hide? I gave 3 stars because the service was lacking... it didn't even look that busy... I think I waited like 15 minutes for a server to notice that I was ready for the check... Street parking, I'm not sure if I missed the entrance to the lot... I don't think I would go out of my way to visit this place... only if it were convenient. read more

Wild Ginger - Thai Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

At first, I ordered the basil stir fry but didn't pay attention to the fact that it comes in a sauce... so I asked them to replace it with the wild ginger stir fry (basically the same thing but with no sauce) and it was really good! Tried these green veggie dumpling looking things; they were , so good!!! Also tried the winter roll (similar to a spring roll) and it was good but I liked it better without the Thai chili sauce that comes with it - I just ate it plain. Would definitely go back! Food and service were great! It's a nice restaurant for family, friends meetup or a date. Theres a small parking lot behind the restaurant as well which was very convenient because they're located in a busy part of Hyde park. read more

Always a good staple for sushi. Items were fresh and recipes innovative. Order was ready when scheduled and pickup was easy.

Got four sushi rolls to try and they were all pretty good! We got the spring rolls which were amazing. Recommend getting a few different dishes to try out. The service was amazing, our waitress was super sweet! read more

The food and ingredients were fresh and plentiful. But do not expect Thai dishes if you order pad Thai or pad see ewe. The pad see ewe was made with 1/2" thick wheat noodles and the sauce was slightly modified soy sauce. No resemblance to pad see ewe. The pad Thai had the right noodles and a flavored sauce but not like pad Thai. read more

We placed a pickup order about 40 minutes before close and when we went to pick up, our car battery died. We called the store and they offered to deliver the order immediately without additional charge. Plus, the food was great! Employees went above and beyond :) read more

One of Best Thai in Hyde Park. Firstly, it's noticeably clean, which always makes me feel better about dining out when I can tell a restaurant is serious about cleanliness. The service was excellent--each staff member was attentive and polite. I had a Thai tea that was extremely refreshing on a hot day, perfectly sweet. Our appetizers were the Vegi spring rolls and Wild Ginger salad, both vegetarian but still very flavorful and hearty. I had the red curry with chicken, which was phenomenal. It was a very tolerable spicy red curry that paired well with the chicken and vegetables in the dish. I really loved my experience at WG, and I am looking forward to coming here again! read more

We were looking for a local place near Xavier University, and Wild Ginger popped up as a suggestion. Good choice! We were sat in the bar area, which gave us a view of the street, which was entertaining. They do have hibachi and regular tables. The bartender was also our waitress. She was on her third day there, but she did a good job. We started with green gyoza, which was very good. I had the ginger stir fry with chicken. It was excellent. My wife, a vegan, had the drunken noodles with fried tofu. It was also excellent. They have a lot of choices, so we will be back to try more. read more

Wild Ginger - Bar - Thai Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

I really liked this place but, today was disappointing. We Sat at the bar and waited for 20 min (while the bartender was behind the bar). She didn't even acknowledge us. She was unpleasant and seemed extremely irritated, like she was annoyed to even wait on us. Then, she proceeds to tell me that (the spot I'm sitting in..that is at the bar)isn't a guest seat and dirty dishes, etc will be put in front of me. So I move to another seat at the bar. We then had appetizers. I stacked our dirty dishes (trying to help her bc she seemed overwhelmed and annoyed) thinking we would receive new dishes for our meal. Instead she pushed our stacked, dirty dishes back to us, to reuse . Our food was ok. Not great. Half our food didn't even come out so we had to get it to go. Super disappointed in the service mostly. We felt like an inconvenience the whole time, along with everyone else at the bar. read more

The fisherman's hot pot and sashimi bowl were both delicious. High quality ingredients and fairly priced. The interior of the restaurant is beautiful and service was excellent. Only complaint was that they were out of Thai ice tea by dinner time, but not enough of a complaint to dock a star. read more

We frequent the area a lot and always smell the Asian spices as we pass. I decided to finally try this out and my go-to is always pad thai. If it's right, then a lot of other dishes will likely be the same. Unfortunately, I was a bit disappointed. I ordered for carry out. I parked right in front which probably never happens for frequent guests, but it was right after 5pm rush hour on a weeknight. The bean sprouts were very fresh and crunchy, which I love, love, love, but there was way too much meat, not enough tahini flavor and not enough vegetables/color. For $16 the portion was a bit short as well as the container was shallow compared to other places we go for pickup. I'll give them 4 stars for efficiency. 2 stars for flavor. 2 stars for parking. 2 stars for ambiance. I hear the back is a little romantic, but I didn't venture to see for myself. I'm not too thrilled about finding out unless I stumble across photos of it. read more

Decent food. Seems much larger inside. Cool decor. Friendly staff. Good service. Extensive menu. Food was good. Would visit again

Delicious! I wouldn't say it the best in Cincinnati but if you're in the Rookwood area and looking to enjoy hibachi, pad Thai or sushi it's the perfect place to go! read more

Service and food excellent. Very authentic and as spicey as you like it. Spring rolls amazing

Great Hibachi at a quality price and a fun chef to boot. My sister picked this place for her Bday and it its our new favorite Hibachi. Reservations were simple to make and we were quickly seated. Our servers were kind and attentive, from seat to first food was maybe 20 minutes. We ordered a variety of plates and everything was large portions and good quality with many of us having left overs. The chef was a lot of fun with the normal jokes and theatrics plus a mindful eye to not mess with people who don't want to play along. Drinks were good and they even let us bring in our own dessert. This is my go to Hibachi from now on. read more

Wide selection of Asian entrees with some fun cocktails to try. Great crab rangoons and a fun brown sauce with rich and spicy flavor

I love their thai food and portions are always great,. I removed one star due to the prices, can be a bit high for asian.

I'm a long time customer of Wild Ginger since I moved to Cincinnati two years ago and my experience yesterday cemented my adoration for the restaurant. My work group made a reservation that ended up being a third of the size due to some of my colleagues not showing up without notice. The server VERY graciously gave a difficult but necessary message to us about how that negatively impacted them as a small business since they unnecessarily turned down business to accommodate our reservation size. Although I'm I did stick to my reservation commitment, I know that message had a mindset shift impact on me personally that will always make me make mindful decisions on reservation commitments in the future. The food was delicious, great portion sizes and the server and the cook were so kind despite our lack of consideration! read more

This place is always consistent, great food and attentive service. I've been here several times over the years and it never disappoints!

I stopped in for lunch yesterday with my daughter and we both enjoyed it. We thought the salad and sushi we ordered were tasty and the service was good. We each decided on the lunch combo of a salad and 3 classic rolls. I ordered the Kyoto Roll, Fusion Roll & the Spicy Yellowtail Roll. My daughter ordered a Philadelphia Roll, Spicy Tuna Tempura Roll & the Crunchy Crab Roll. All of the fish tasted fresh and the rolls were displayed appealingly on the plate. The side salad was larger and had more ingredients that some other sushi establishments and we both thought it was delicious. We'd stop in again for lunch sometime. read more

We love Wild Ginger! My favorite Fisherman's Hot Pot. You can go high in the spicy number if you ask me. I got a 6 and my husband gets an 8. We've had so many delicious dishes here. The sushi is fresh and not too overly rice-y. It is just right! read more

Wild Ginger - Fisherman's Fisherman's Hot Pot Dinner - Thai Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

I was so looking forward to the Pad Thai, but it did not live up to the recommendations. I added the chicken and the chicken was skimpy and so dried out it was straw like. The chicken probably if weigh would be less than an ounce or two in total, just a few very dried out, minuscule pieces. I hope this was just an off night because the entree definitely is not worth $18. read more

I may have found my new Cincinnati Pho spot. I stumbled across Wild Ginger on google and decided to give it a try. I normally sit at the bar but this night there was no bartender. Nevertheless I was seated and my waitress was amazing. She helped me pick the pho but let me know the curry is also really popular. It is HUGE as you can see. I would share it with someone for sure. The ambiance was perfect for my solo date and I love it! read more

The HeeMa roll is delicious. They have a wonderful selection of wine on top of the sushi.

5 star review based on an excellent sushi lunch here recently. Our service was excellent, and the sushi/sashimi combo feature much larger pieces of excellent fish than the 'half price' places even think about. The miso soup was good, even the spicy tuna roll was noticeably better than most places. We were here for dinner here recently as well and had a great experience. The front desk was hopping with carry out and delivery. I noticed a number of reviews of the delivery process aren't that great, so I would suggest going here for the dine-in experience. read more

Wild Ginger - Sushi! - Thai Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

My celiac husband and I went into Wild Ginger yesterday mid-afternoon, thinking maybe we'd be more able to ask questions during a non-busy time. We told our server, Alex, that he has celiac and what we were hoping to learn, and she offered to help as there were language obstacles in the kitchen. She told us the restaurant was in the process of updating their menu, and that the new version would have gluten-free options marked, and then OMG...she offered to let us look at her own personally marked-up copy that she uses with customers requesting GF! She's even marked on one section, "make note not to deep fry", which means she's attuned to the risk of cross-contamination, which is a major issue for celiacs that many restaurants aren't aware of. We'll definitely be asking for her next time we're in. read more

The overall experience could be better. The Tom Yum soup was really good. It was spicy and sour, really hitting the spot. Chicken satay was good as well. Although they were a bit stingy on the peanut sauce The main dish - sushi kinda fell short. I feel weird saying this but it was bland But I will prolly give it another go, ordering a simpler roll because perhaps they couldn't make a sophisticated but delicious roll read more

I'm a regular at wild ginger. Their drunken noodles are my favorite. However, yesterday I had sushi there for the first time (lent) and it was AMAZING. Great prices and super fresh. They also have real ginger and not the pink stuff many resturants have! Other things that are important- the waiters/waitresses are friendly, if there is a wait it is usually only a few minutes and the food always come out quick. Love this place. read more

This food was not good, but was AMAZING! Today I was with my family and wanted some hibachi. Wild Ginger was a bit full but still had space to fit us in. This was very considerate of them. The service was also amazing. The hostess greeted us welcomely, and our server was very informative of their menu because of our dietary restrictions. We didn't only eat hibachi, but had some of their sushi. It was very flavorful and tasted very fresh. I would 100% come back and recommend everyone to come here. read more
