Wild Ginger offers an exceptional dining experience, blending modern technology with culinary excellence. Upon entering, you’re greeted by a sleek, minimalist decor—wooden tables set against a backdrop of Spartan simplicity, yet softened by vibrant plants that bring a natural energy to the space. The framed art lining the walls adds a touch of elegance without overwhelming the atmosphere. What truly sets Wild Ginger apart is the robotic server that glides through the restaurant, delivering fresh, cold beer with perfect precision. It’s a futuristic touch that adds a unique element to the meal. The Mongolian beef is a standout—tender, juicy, and bursting with flavor. Each bite carries a perfect balance of sweet and savory, making it a dish you’ll crave long after you’ve left. For wine lovers, the restaurant boasts an impressive wine wall, showcasing an array of fine wines to pair perfectly with your meal. Multiple large sports TVs provide entertainment, yet the ambiance remains relaxed and sophisticated, thanks in part to the restaurant’s impeccable ventilation system, which keeps the air clean and fresh. Service is prompt, efficient, and always with a smile, ensuring that every visit to Wild Ginger is nothing short of extraordinary. One remarkable detail at Wild Ginger that elevates the dining experience is the use of heated slate plates. As your Mongolian beef arrives, it’s served on a sleek, heated slate that keeps the food at the perfect temperature from the first bite to the last. This thoughtful touch ensures that every dish maintains its optimal warmth and texture, making each bite as flavorful and enjoyable as the moment it was served. It’s a subtle yet luxurious feature that showcases Wild Ginger’s commitment to a top-tier dining experience.

The food here did not disappoint! All dishes were well portioned and delicious. Some of them were a bit on the salty side but it’s more of a preference thing than anything.

A very pleasant surprise - magnificent meals, friendly staff, and excellent value. A gem. Busy because is so good. The red Thai curry (vegetables, chicken, and coconut rice), Thai pineapple rice, and Lunch Special (ginger beef and chicken chow mein option) were all 5/5.

We ordered Wild Ginger for delivery, the delivery guy was extremely pleasant, and called us from his car to ensure we had all the dishes and utensils we would need. We were both very pleasantly surprised at how hot and crispy the dishes were, and they all tasted excellent. This was truly some of the best Chinese food we’ve had; we ordered the house chow mein, ginger beef and the sesame chicken and veggie special that came with white rice. Some reviews have complained about the pricing, but the quality was so fabulous I thought it was worth the money.

I've been coming here every summer for the past four years and always eat here. The food is excellent and I've never been disappointed. Come early though as it is very popular. If you're lucky your server will be Sophie who is a recent permanent resident with the biggest smile. I would also recommend there vermicelli bowl.

I could taste McDonald’s fries from their sesame chicken which means not good. Also, their quality of rice is pretty bad. I believe that the good quality of rice is one of the vital essences to make excellent Asian food. Their foods are good enough to fool around white people in the town. But for Asians, this is not a place for you to mitigate homesickness.

Good Asian food with good vegetarian options but their phone order / pickup sucks. Ive placed orders over 5 times and every single time they tell me 30 mins, I show up after 45 mins and then sit there for another 30-60 mins waiting for my order. Im pretty sure they dont start preparing the food until you get there. I would eat here way more often if their pickup ordering was good. They should also get on a delivery app.

I ordered 2 bowls of rare beef pho and a salad roll . $60 later. This is probably the most bland pho I ve ever eaten. The broth tasted like nothing. If I wanted warm water with noodles I would have made myself some Mr noodles . This is what i get ordering at a asian Restaurant .

Nothing is typical about this place. While it can often be busy, its for good reason. The food is fresh and tasty. The dining room is kept very clean. Service is quick and friendly.

July 22, 2024

Both the service and food were bad and low in quantity. We placed an order over the phone and waited for 20 min despite being asked to be on time. Also the food quantity was not sufficient for even a single person contrary to what was told to us over the phone.

Food taste was very good and quantities reasonable. Only issue I had was terrible service. Over an hour from ordering til we received our food and then Only as my wife asked another waitress (not ours). Diners who came in after us had received their meals. Definitely appeared that our order had been lost.

Amazing food

June 22, 2024

My brother in-law and I came in to order take out and ive never encountered such rude and disinterested staff in my life. The woman behind the bar wouldnt acknowledge us despite trying to politely make our intentions to order. I get everyone has bad days however ignoring simple manners and not being able to even say a simple thank you is unacceptable. The food was OK, not great not terrible but feeling like spending well over 100 is a nuisance to you is awful. Would not recommend and yall need an attitude adjustment

★★★★★

My Mom & I had the lunch special - chicken chow mein which came with a side of sweet & sour pork (or ginger beef). It was very flavourful, fresh, delicious, and large portions. The service was excellent. We ll definitely come here again.

The best Chinese food Ive eaten in a very long time. Ordered online for pickup. Super easy and super fresh. Worth the money. We got 5 different dishes for just under $100.

This place has incredible food, I will give credit where credit is due... However, on Mothers Day my family was extremely upset to have one of the worst experiences in a resturant. Our waitress failed to take our order properly and led to my Dad not even getting his order when the rest of the tables food arrived. Should I mention we waited 1hr 45min for the first plate to arrive? Maybe I should mention that our waitress did not come by and check in on us, that was up to the other staff noticing we were being neglected and checking in on us. The resturant was not runnning the AC and we had to exit the resturant multiple times to breath and cool off. We had to get up and ask for our bills and boxes after paitently waiting 15mins to give the waitress a chance to see that we were finished. Finally, after requesting our bills to be split, the waitress had no clue what we ordered and starting asking us what we ordered. This was a huge ordeal, leading to all of having to repeat over and over again what we had. In the end we did not get the bills split properly and gave in to just pay the way she had put it together and figure it out later. What shocked us the most ... they have limited high chairs, and my brothers almost 2 year old son was in a high chair. A mother comes over and literally says your sons not as small as mine so i would like to have the high chair. My brother didnt want to cause a scene and so he decided to give up the chair.. THIS IS EXTREMLEY UNACCEPTABLE BEHAVIOUR. This should have been handled by the resturant, with them explaining they didnt have enough high chairs for their customers before they sat down, or interviened when the lady was clearly taking matters into her own hands. What was supposed to be a wonderful Mothers Day Dinner, lead to an extremely frustrating and uncomfortable evening... DO BETTER!

The very best Asian restaurant Penticton has EVER had. Food is exceptional, fresh, hot and generous amounts. Staff is friendly and extremely efficient. The owner is always present and very professional, helps out wherever needed. The space itself is spotless. I noticed the menus being wiped down after each use, never ever witnessed that before. If you haven t been to this restaurant you are truly missing out.

Hands down the best Asian / Chinese food I have had in a long time if not ever. Everything we ordered was delicious we had a feast of 10 items mostly your typical Chinese restaurant staples, I am however eagar to try the rest of the menu but definitely going to get the seasame chicken again! They where eager to cater to an unusual food allergy and everything was just so fresh and so good. 100% you should eat here! I will definitely be going back for seconds! Food is still great but if you order for pickup chances are youre going to wait so dont be afraid of showing up 5 to 10 min late. Especially if you are given an hour plus pickup window.

Waited another 15 minutes and decided to try another restaraunt. Ordered, ate and then I finally recieved a call back and they kindly explained to me that they will not deliver dinner for 1. No sorry that our online ordering does not say this and u waited 2 hours. No nothing. Decent food but just lost my business

January 12, 2023 I have shellfish allergies and my daughter has Celiac Disease, we informed them but now my daughter is very sick. Im feeling unwell and really hope there wasnt cross contamination and that my daughter gets better! Google what happens with people who have Celiac Disease, shell be sick for awhile! Do better or dont say its GLUTEN-FREE Edit on Jan 17th, 2023... We called THAT DAY (Jan 12, 2023) and the server told us the kitchen was extremely busy and theyd call back in the evening, we have not received a phone call! We shouldnt have to call more than once for a mistake by your company, take care of it! FYI the server remembered us and said she did, when we called, as well as thanked us when we let her know our dietary needs when ordering. We came to this place due to the gluten-free options stated online. Dietary restrictions: Did not take into consideration when were told about Celiac! Dont chance it!

Poor impression of Chinese food that does the country no justice. Its Westernized. Ginger beef tasted like over-fried bread without the meat or ginger. Washed in corn syrup. Its nothing like authentic and fresh as youd find in Vancouver. People posting reviews are locals who have clearly never been to Asia or know what authentic taste is. Chow mein was flavourless. Dumpling were fried too much and pork tasted like a processed hot dog. Very small. They dont carry gai lan or yu choy. Like from frozen. Id never waste my money here and I was embarrassed I took a family member. We split 1 lunch special dish, 1 wine and appetizer, $50. Too expensive. I can make much better at home. Server took drink order but didnt bring the drink or utensils with the meal. Got a glass of wine when we were almost finished eating.

Id give 3.5 stars. The average of food, service and atmosphere. The food. 5 stars sure, it was great, generous and delicious although my man said his noodles missed mint as hes had in most Thai restaurants. Atmosphere, 3, it was busy, it was nice layout and tidy. But not overly spectacular. Nice and new looking so that I can appreciate, now the service, was another story. Poor communication, the food came out after 45 minutes, and we ordered appetizers that came after our food. The waitresses were not approachable, and from my experience in restaurants it seems the kitchen and FOH doesnt have good command. An expeditor or manager would be organizing food properly, and communicating w guests if their order is long and also telling the kitchen whats going on. It feels like the team working to bring guests their food just isnt cooperating well. Thats too bad. Unfortunately Im not sure if I would waut again in house, but maybe I would get takeout as the food was the win here and thats the funny thing, good food doesnt mean good service. I hope this improves in the future, they deserve a happy team working together to suceed

Terrible service. Consistently behind on take out orders. As a local who lives 5 minutes away, when I call to place an order and you tell me a time and take my phone number Id hope the order is ready close to that time or just give me a call to let me know you are running behind.

The service was pretty slow despite it seeming like there was enough staff, from ordering, to food, to getting the bill. But the flavour is pretty authentic!
