    Pineapple fried rice
    Aubrie H.

    This place is fantastic. Whether you stop in to eat or grab it to go, the food is always fantastic. The service is great as well. We are never disappointed by their sushi, bowls or fried rice. Absolutely delicious with a nice portion size.

    Edamame and Salmon Blossom
    Angela M.

    Yum!! The meal was so refreshing! I'm generally more nutritionally efficient so prioritized protein but the salad with the salmon was a nice balance! The flavors were all so perfect. I'd definitely come back to because it's really peaceful and they have calming music playing. Nice atmosphere for solo dates too if you're like me and eat out alone sometimes!

    General Tso's and Shrimp Tempura and Rock and Roll.

    My 7 year old daughter and I walked into Wild Ginger for the first time this evening. When we sat down, she said "I give this place 5-stars. The music sounds French. It was just nice dinner music. Our server was very attentive and gave us suggestions. We enjoyed the General Tso's Chicken -Not Spicy (because even mild has a little spice). It was delicious and possibly the best General Tso's Iwe've ever eaten. We also ordered the Shrimp Tempura Roll and the Rock and Roll. I preferred the Rock and Roll. My daughter tried both rolls but didn't care for either. I'm just proud that she tried something different.

    House Salad

    Wild Ginger is one of the better rated Asian restaurants on the west side of Columbus, so we gave it a try for lunch when we were in the area. They have a huge menu, including lunch specials from 11am-3pm Monday through Saturday. I tried the lunch portion of the wok-glazed ginger sauce with chicken. Lunch specials come with miso soup or salad and white or brown rice, so I went with the house salad and brown rice with mine. My SO got the wonton soup and the two roll special for $15, electing to try the crunchy California and shrimp tempura rolls. The food was ready quickly, and the portions were much bigger than I'd expect for the typical lunch entree. My wok-glazed ginger chicken was alright, and loaded with vegetables. In hindsight, I would've tried a different sauce. My SO really enjoyed the wonton soup and sushi though, so I'm splitting the difference and giving Wild Ginger 4 stars.

    This was a disappointing outing. Food did not live up to expectations at all. House salads were drowning in dressing. Sushi did not taste very fresh. Both Sichuan and Kung Pao chicken entrees had rubbery, flavorless chicken. Fried rice was also very bland. Maybe it was an off night, but would not be back to find out.

    Came back for dinner the other. And it was crowded but we got seated within 10 minutes. I love their shrimp tempura roll and I also got their pad Thai. It was so flavorful and the portion was very big!

    Everyone enjoyed their different entrees & apps of spring rolls & edamame. Everything was fresh and tasty, but sauces can overwhelm main ingredients. Entrees include soup or salad with too much ginger dressing. Lots of sushi options. The service was great on a busy Saturday evening. All staff and manager were friendly and welcoming. Would come back.

    Fancy hostess stand.

    My wife and I were slightly overwhelmed with the selection of restaurants to pick from in this part of Columbus while passing through on our drive to the west coast. After checking Yelp, we selected Wild Ginger for dinner and we're very happy we did. On the outside, it looks like any other restaurant in your typical strip shopping center but there is a vestibule you pass through to enter another world. The interior is very warm, refined and up scale. The folks working here are super friendly and it starts from the moment you pass through their doors. We got a comfortable booth across from their full service bar that I don't think was open to sit at. It was a convenient spot to stage the plethora of carry out orders they processed. Our server was awesome. She helped us navigate their extensive menu of several styles of Asian food. My wife ordered chicken Szechuan with white rice and I opted for beef Szechuan with fried rice. Our entrees came with choice of soup and we both picked Hot and Sour based on our server's suggestion. She was spot on as it was very delicious. We both polished it off. Our entrees showed up shortly thereafter. Both were served temperature hot and spicy hot. I'd recommend backing off a notch on the spiciness unless you like it really hot. It is kinda funny how we both started sweating as we were eating it. The rice was served in a side bowl to easily mix in and help tone it down. All in all we were very happy with our choice to dine here. Everything was great and I have no suggestions on anything to improve. The only thing I'd do differently is order one entree to share as the portions were very generous and we couldn't take any back to the hotel with us.

    I highly recommend the yellowtail jalapeño. (not pictured here) The sushi taste fresh and it's tasty. The respectful and polite staff made my personal experience even better.

We tried the pork sisig, it was okay. It has this mayo topping and there's an overpowering taste of ginger which is not typical of sisig. We enjoyed the grilled pork belly though, marinated enough and it's complimented with soy vinegar dip. The pancit on the other hand was very greasy. The oil was pooling at the bottom of the bowl. Taste was was just okay. It has way too many chinese sausage in it. We completed our meal with Ube Carioca, it is this chewy rice cake that is deep fried with glazed sweetness & that was okay as well. We wanted the mango sago, however they were out. The service was prompt and adequate parking space.

    This is a fairly new place that has worked out its new place kinks IMO. We first visited when it…read morewas about a month old and in the wintertime. The place had potential but the ingredients seemed scarce & not fresh in the self serve bar (which made it unappetizing like a dried up hot buffet would lol), and the mango bingsu we ordered at the time had unripened hard, and unsweet mango in it. It wasn't in season obviously. It's been almost a year and we decided to give it another try after shopping at Sunrise. Upon entering, I could already smell the Malatang spices. It was also pretty crowded! The last time we went, we were the only ones there the entire meal. The cold bar of ingredients was stocked full and seemed very fresh this time. You can get your bowl dry or in broth. I decided on with broth. They have a choice of tomato, bone, or spicy broth. I had them mix the spicy and bone broth because I can do too spicy. It came out in about 10/15mins because they were busy. Huuuge bowl!! - Enough for two people or leftovers. Rice is $2 extra and there are so many choices for noodles if you prefer that. The bingsu for dessert was my favorite . Sooo different than last time! The mango was juicy and fresh and played so nicely with the puree jam, vanilla ice cream and condensed milk. Yummy!! I opted for no red bean in mine. There are alot of different flavors to choose from too - strawberry, pistachio, matcha, black sesame, etc.... You need to give this place a try if you enjoy malatang and bingsu. I'll definitely be back soon...Maybe after every grocery run lol

I opted for delivery and was looking for a quick soup. Another helpers picture caught my attention and they offered free delivery on dash. Food arrived really fast, piping hot, and was absolutely delicious. I had the Dapanji stirred noodles which was silky and smooth and packed with flavor. The chicken was chunks of thigh meat on the bone and had bell peppers and potatoes. Sounds simple but MAN! Delish! It also had fresh noodles in a separate container. I also ordered hot n sour just in case I didn't like it, and I tasted it but couldn't put the Dapanji down. Hot n sour was also fantastic (leftovers for lunch tomorrow!). The eggroll was so so fresh and crispy. Not oily at all and the texture of the meat (white meat chicken) and veggies was PERFECT! This was probably the best door dash meal I have ever had.
