    Pad Thai with beef
    Dwight O.

    My wife and I tried WG for lunch. I had the honey sake chicken while she tried the Pad Thai. My meal was perfectly acceptable and it made for a nice lunch. It didn't leave me with an impression where I need to go back to experience that flavor profile again and I'll try something new the next time I'm there. The pad Thai was a different story. Everything was visually correct as to what you'd expect and it looked fantastic. Upon eating it, it was the most flavorless thing I might have ever had. It really seemed like they forgot something. I like restaurants like this and will try again at some point.

    Appetizers! Edamame  Pork Belly Bao Bun
    Shelby T.

    Staff is very knowledgeable about allergies. The spicy edamame is delicious. Others at the table got the pork belly bao buns and said they were delicious as well - tender meat, fluffy bun. For my entree I got pad Thai. It's an enormous serving. I forgot to snap a picture before diving in. Personally I would've liked it a little saucier but it's still good! In the future I'll probably just get the veggie option because the chicken was a bit dry. And for the Diet Coke community , they only have Coke Zero.

    We come every year for Valentine's Day lol. Good food, excellent service, amazing drinks. I'm just keeping a record of what we get lol. This is our 3rd year together!

    Pork belly Bao , so delicious! Tender with a crispy Szechuan flavored crust, pickled toppings, and so fresh.

    Wild Ginger is a beautiful restaurant in Cool Springs with an industrial-meets-nature vibe--think high ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking a lush garden patio. Today it was perfect for a quiet, cozy, rainy day lunch. I had the pork bao bun appetizer and the Asian slaw. The bao was hands-down the best I've had--tender braised pork with a crispy Szechuan-spiced edge, topped with pickled radish and cucumber, cilantro, and a sprinkle of cashews. Super flavorful. The slaw was fresh and creamy, kind of like a Chinese chicken salad without the chicken--crunchy shredded cabbage, a sesame and ginger dressing, and sunflower seeds for texture. So good. Service was friendly and attentive, and the window view made it extra atmospheric. Definitely a great lunch pick if you're in the area.

    Pot stickers and Yoyo Roll - delicious!
    Sarah B.

    This is one of my favorite restaurants in Franklin! Everything is always amazing! We started with a yoyo roll and the pot stickers. They were both delicious! My Boyfriend got the Mongolian Beef which we always love. It's flavorful and perfectly balanced with the veggies. I got the lobster bisque and it was phenomenal. I always pair it with the edamame and it's perfect. The restaurant is relaxed and good for having a nice date night. Great ambiance and feels like you have more than enough space. Service is always top notch. Lemon drop martini is also very tasty! We had a great date night!

    DO NOT ORDER THE PORK CHOP. I ordered the WRONG thing!! Went home hungry. Lovely presentation of the Pork chop. But half the plate was bland potatoes & spinach & carrots with ZERO seasoning. No salt, pepper or garlic. Then there was a pile of brown squishy something. Just awful. I don't even know what it was. The pork chop needs taken off the menu immediately. My date got the halibut with jasmine rice with mushrooms & cheese. It was delicious. His was so flavorful. I wanted to cry. His entire dish was 10 times better than mine. I took 2 bites & hated my veggies, my potatoes, my pork chop. The whole thing was was bad. Very nice waiter. Not his failt

    My absolutely favorite sushi restaurant in the Nashville area. The dishes are all amazing, the Asian fusion twist is delightful! The fantasy roll and dynamite shrimp I could eat every single day! Great flavor and my all time favorite. Their iced green tea is so refreshing, and drink selections are nicely paired with the dishes served. Services is always 10/10, food is never less than perfect and it's a very nice atmosphere. Great for just a basic dinner, date night, or for a celebration.

    We went here for my birthday dinner and they did not disappoint. It was a big party and they kept our drinks full and our bellies happy. The sushi was so good. The braised short rib was amazing. I cannot wait to visit here again.

    First time trying their sushi - we went with C Four & loved the spice and heat it gave! We stuck with our favorite entree - the Mongolian beef - can't beat it. This was our visit week day visit and were a little bummed they don't have a happy hour offering. Service was quick and friendly, we got a table quickly as we joined the Yelp waitlist ahead of driving in.

    From the amazing and attentive service, to the beautiful ambiance of the restaurant, Wild Ginger has always been a favorite place to grab some amazing food. I love ordering and sharing sushi paired with fried rice. We also had the lobster bisque soup in a bread bowl which was a 10/10!

    This place is a must try if you're in Franklin, Cool Springs area. It's actually worth a 20 minute drive if you're in Nashville. They have alot of sushi options. Signature Maki, Classic Maki, Nigiri and Sashimi. They have a good selection of Appetizers, Sandwiches, WOK, Seafood and Shore. The ambiance is nice and clean with a modern comfortable feel. They have a full bar with Beer, Wine, Cocktails and Signature Cocktails. The food is always fresh and tasty and the service is always good. The staff are also friendly. They also have a Hot Rock Ishiyaki grill tableside which I still want to try. You pick your protein from Kobe Beef, Scottish Salmon, Yellowfin Tuna or Scallops and you cook it yourself at the table. Kinda cool. We always have a nice dining experience here.

    Ask the Community - Wild Ginger Restaurant

    Is there a happy hour?

    No, so sad! We are here now and it's my first weekday visit but no HH any day of the week.

    We will be there in a few weeks. My sister loves your restaurant and plans on taking our family there for dinner. I have a 3-year-old and 9-year-old. I don't see a menu for children. do you having anything that children will eat?

    They do not have a kid's menu but have some appetizers that may work.

    Are there any vegan options?

    Yes. There are plenty of Vegan options. In addition, this is somewhat of a high-end restaurant. Ask your server if the chef can make a dish Vegan for you. I am certain they will accommodate your request since they make most items from scratch. Enjoy!

The miso soup was stellar, too. We started with the mango crab rangoons (highly recommend), then ordered a mix of rolls: two cooked: the Hotel Cali and Tidal Wave and two vegan: the Eden (a must!) and the Cowgirl.

I've been a couple times and each time the bartenders are lacking in friendliness, accuracy, and efficiency. It seems that they pay more attention to the service bar and chatting with each other, it's surprising to me that management doesn't notice the bar is in need of supervision and improvement. I've had to to get my own napkins, chopsticks, and even had a food runner drop off my food to a couple sitting beside me and scurry away before any of us could tell her that she made a mistake ‍. It's possible that the service is better at the tables though, I sit at the bar because I go solo. Still, the food and ambiance are worth a visit, I will be back...the chargrilled edamame is delicious!

We were then told our server had left and we had a new one. Once the rest of our group arrived, we waited another 15 minutes before he finally came over, with no apology, no urgency, and a pretty rude attitude. The food here is always amazing, but the service is consistently terrible every time I visit. What makes it worse is that the restaurant wasn't even busy -- maybe eight tables total, two servers, no bar guests -- yet every table around us looked annoyed and was waiting just as long as we were. Not once did we see any sign of management on the floor. The kitchen does a great job, but the service and lack of management presence really ruin the experience. this will be the last time any of us dine in here. which stinks because we love the one in nashville but this one is much closer.

I think this one of my first date spots almost 15 years ago, and has now become a reliable spot for dine-in or takeout on nights I'm too lazy to cook but still want comforting, filling food. Almost every time I come in, I'm delighted to see one of my regular servers who remembers my favorite items, makes friendly banter while I order, and overall makes this an incredibly welcoming experience. There's a lot of regulars like me who have been coming here for years for some of their staple favorites: green curry, red curry, fried rice, pad thai cashew chicken, and truly any of the soups are always hits to me. I always get an appetizer as well with my favorites being the chicken spring roll, the fried tofu, and the small wonton soup. Nothing is spicy unless you request it so, and my meal is always about $14-18, even if I order an appetizer; it's truly one of the few remaining inexpensive spots in the area. Even my parents still request to come here, which is wild as they are truly some of the world's pickiest eaters; there is really something for everyone. Sushi is not my favorite here and I wouldn't call this the most authentic Thai food, but that doesn't make it any less delicious. Easy parking in a plentiful lot, thanks to the shopping complex it's located in. Welcoming atmosphere, comforting and delicious food, and the opportunity to support a longstanding local business - it's truly a no brainer to come and eat at Jasmine.
