Ginger Cafe
I've heard this is one of the best Asian places in the anoka Ramsey area so I was looking forward to finally trying it out. Unfortunately my experience is not what other may have had. I only ordered the Pho soup which is normally a delicious dish. My meal came with very little meat and there was only 2 meatballs and some beef. Pho soup normally comes with tendon, steak, tripe and brisket as well. If any of these meat were included they were not visible at all. The noodles had a different consistency than most rice noodles but maybe that's because I didn't mix it in the broth until I got home 10 minutes after picking it up. Overall it was mediocre at best. I will definitely go back and try other dishes and when I do I'll be quick to update my review and include any positive experiences. The service was great but I wish I could say the same thing about the food. Maybe next time!
Overall experience 4.5 out of 5. To go out review. Doing a breakdown the atmosphere was clean. The tables are clean from what I can see. I did a to go order, so I did not use the bathrooms but from that perspective, it look great. Service, very friendly staff were happy to chat with me and treat me as a customer not it’s just someone picking up and order and going home. Food. I thought the food was good no complaints there, the portion was a little less than average. So here’s why it only got 4.5. Their website price is not reflecting the current price that they just changed it. I was a little surprised at the price of $18 for a sweet-and-sour chicken with fried rice. The waitress/ hostess informed me about it when I picked up the food.
Asian To Go
First and last time. We got chicken pad Thai, chicken was cold, the rest of it was warm, but tasteless.. my partner got Spicy chicken with cashew nuts. It was about a 5 minute drive back home, and her chicken was dry in the middle and the breading was super soggy. Like it has been sitting under a heat lamp for hours. My pad Thai was at least somewhat edible, despite tasting like noodles and nothing else. Her chicken was inedible. Wontons were okay, rice was okay. Feels bad writing such a review on what seems like a little family owned place, but.. people deserve to know. I hope whoever's in charge can fix it.
We have ordered takeout a few times- We really like the food!! My mother-in-law, who had eaten there some time ago, liked it more than she had in the past, and wanted to order it again in the future! We had Singapore Chicken Noodles- SUPER good(!!), fried rice, chow mein, a beef dish ( I can’t remember what my relative ordered) curry chicken, and a few other dishes that I can’t remember in our group. We were all really happy!
5 Spice Asian Takeout
The food delivered for the low mein was very good. I'm picky about the texture of noodles not being overcooked or 2 soft they were perfect. If it wasn't for the price of lo mein when I've been to other good places that use to be from $8-$14 would be reasonable. But $17-$18 a bit high. Otherwise I'd gladly give a 5 star. I will still order or come here and there just not as often.
Top 3 Chinese place in the twin cities. However, if ordering outside their lunch menu, my meal goes from $9.95 to $25…..this is absolutely insane. I call at 2:09pm and my meal goes up 150% calling 9 minutes after 2. Also inside used to be very nice. It looks like it should be shut down now. This place is ran sooooo poorly but stay afloat due to it’s delicious food. 150% markup for the same food needs to be addressed. That is simply ignorant.
Annie's Wok
Everything from Annie's Wok was a complete disappointment. The Pork Potstickers (6) seem to be lightly deep fried hours ago and reheated; they were dried and hard. The #3 Chicken Lo Mein combo has the strangest Lo Mein I've ever encountered. It was a three layer concotion of what looked and tasted like Chow Mein sauce and vegetables, a mass of thin noodles, then thin strips of stir fried chicken breast in the top; it didn't look or taste like Lo Mein from other restaurants. It came with colossally gross fried rice that looked like rice that was stir fried with only soy sauce days earlier. I spat out the rice as soon as I tasted it and threw the rest into the trash. We also had the Curry Tofu and the curry spices tasted raw and added as an afterthought into the rest of the dish. I order Chinese food from a variety of restaurants, and Annie's Wok was the worst I've ever encountered as nothing was good or even passable.
I ordered from here for the first time tonight. The price was great and the portions were generous. The staff were friendly. However, there was hardly any cream cheese in the cream cheese wontons, and the lo mein really wasn't mixed. The first half of the container was all vegetables, and the noodles were all clumped together in the bottom half. The flavor of the noodles was great, though. We really loved the egg rolls. I'm not sure I'd order from here again, though.
So Good China Restaurant
First time trying so good china restaurant, it was pretty good the egg roll was ok nothing great. The sesame chicken was good a little diffrent kind of a ketchup sauce flavor the chicken was cooked perfect with good quality chicken. The chicken and broccoli was also cooked well. The service was excellent one of the best I have encountered in awhile.
Food was great. Service was great. The atmosphere was pretty quiet, albeit it was a Thursday evening. Cost $100 for lo mein, lemon chicken, steamed dumplings, general chicken with fried rice and sesame chicken. A lot of food.
Angkor Restauraunt
Very good, combo five sesame chicken with three wontons I did eat a big portion of it already. It is very delicious..
Best Asian food around, by far! This was our go to Asian food when we lived in the area. Now that we live hours away, every time we come to the cities, we have to get some takeout. Fried rice, lo mien, egg rolls, beef and broccoli, pad Thai, chicken curry. All super delicious Give them a try, I’m sure you will enjoy.
China Dragon
Nothing like going home to find an inch and a half piece of plastic in your food. Asked for a refund on that part of our order as it's not edible at this point and was offered to have it remade, no thanks! I just thought I'd make sure others know to look carefully!
Teriyaki chicken skewers are fantastic and hotter than the asphalt in July. And I got 3 fortunes in my cookie.
Bamboo Village Restaurant
Usually always get everything to go but this time I ate in. The server Bill was super friendly fast and professional. Best service I've had in a long time. Pho is good in its own way, it's not the normal pho with tripe and other items. I got the house pho and it was loaded with meat/shrimp and broth was really good! I would honestly eat here again just on how well I was treated even when the phones were ringing and customers were walking in.
Best egg rolls anywhere! Specialty of the house. Unlike any you have had before. They are addictive. Their egg fu young is ridiculous. The only egg fu young I have ever liked. The gravy is to die for! Love the seafood with crispy noodles. Real, full sized scallops. Portions large. Prices are very reasonable. A little hard to get to the building, but it is well worth the trip. Anytime we are in the area, it is a go-to. The luncheon menu is $9.95, enough for leftovers.
Rose Garden Restaurant & Banquet Hall
We ate here on a Saturday night in November 2024. It was fairly empty at 5pm but by 7pm it was very busy. The menu had a wide selection of American style Chinese food. We ordered 2 entrees, 2 appetizers and custard tarts that 3 people shared. The food came out one item at a time and we finished the first entree before the second one arrived. It was entertaining to watch the robot server bring our food. The 2 appetizers arrived after we had finished the entrees. The food was really good and we all loved the walnut shrimp! The next time I eat here I will request the entrees to come at the same time. The noise level was low and the staff was friendly.
Been here so many times I lost count. It’s one of our favorite Chinese restaurants in MN. We always do our usual though and maybe sometimes add something different just to try. And they’re super fast on making the dishes as well. Though, I wouldn’t go during their buffet hours unless you want buffet. It’s crazy busy during that time. We usually order from the menu only.
Hibachi Grill and Supreme Buffet
I've been here plenty of times and most recently, stopped in with my brothers, for dinner. Let me just say, this place never fails to disappoint, and that is solely due to their Hibachi Beef. Juicy, tender, bite-sized cubed beef cuts, that just melts in your mouth. If it's one thing you should absolutely try, it is the Hibachi Beef. So many people grab it that it's always freshly made although, due to it's popularity, you may end up waiting or touring the other options while they make more. Of course, the other food items are tasty as well, and they have a great selection of sushi. I also recommend their Salt and Pepper Shrimp, it's probably the best around compared to other buffets, but I tend to like my salt and pepper more on the salty side. Pair it up with an ice cold Sprite and you're golden. Overall, when I think buffet, I think Hibachi. It's the same with my family and the place can be packed most times during dinner hours, but that's how buffets typically are anyways, its just if the food is good or not and you can't go wrong at Hibachi.
WOW…we’ve been to this place once and it was pretty good, but after today it’ll be our last time here! We stopped by for dinner after leaving the trampoline park. All we wanted was a good dinner until I saw hair in the food!! (If you look closely, you can see the hair strands). This place is unsanitary and when the food was being brought out, there was barely anything on the new trays! Not sure if other Buffet’s charge for drinks but we were charged for our drinks! We all had 1-2 plates with very little food on each of them, avoiding the foods that didn’t look sanitary. The service here was okay, the server came by twice reaching in front of us to grab our plates while we were eating, no “excuse me” or anything. There might’ve been a language barrier there so we weren’t too bothered by it, but I don’t think me and my family have been to more of a bad buffet than this one. Definitely our last time here!!
Bamboo Village Restaurant
Went for the famous Qui egg rolls but also ordered the pad Thai. The Pad Thai was pink and did not taste like PT. Added chicken to it, which was dry..pretty sure they use thighs so not sure how they got dry. I was in & out but staff was awesome. Disappointed in food as it wasn't what I thought PT to be BUT it was still good food. I just didn't want to make my own; PT and fresh spring rolls. In all honesty I was thinking about the egg rolls for the last half of my massage so 😋 With the new road construction it's not difficult to get to: just Google. It's still right off the highway on the 'service' road and you can hop right on the highway again
Ordered Food at 545. It took 2 hours to get here. One hour in, we called to ask about the delay. We offered to pick up the food but were told it would be fine. When the food arrived, it was cold and looked terrible. Do not waste your money here.
Great Moon Buffet
Honestly this machine does not just give the best soft served ice-cream, but they make sure to clean it too. Even the food were always checked up to be sure it’s fresh, and still very good quality. I seemed there even expiration dates on the top so they can make sure when to get rid of it/ replace the food. Even the waiter tonight was very respectful! And honestly it’s funny to see the chefs poke their heads out the kitchen doors to make sure things are fine and well! First time here for my anniversary, I don’t regret it! Definitely will come here again!
Service was great, time stamps were written down to replace the food and keep it always fresh, even the ice cream machine was cleaned regularly. Utensils are individually wrapped and given. The place is equipped with an ice cream machine, only vanilla flavored, though. TL:DR Great clean food, Great service, Ice cream Machine.
