Terrible service

by royboss at Citysearch

Per recommendation of Miami Spice i made a reservation at Ginger Grove at 8: 30p. at arrival we were taken to our table immediately, up to that point everything was fine. We order wine and appetizers and it took about one hour to be served. I ask the waiter and the manager what was the delay with the service and was told the between a party and room service they were overwhelm. We ask for another glass of wine and that never got to us we had to go to the bar down stair to get that wine. At that point all of were so upset that we ask for the check because we were not staying for the never coming diner. Once again we wait for another 45 min and no sign of waiter or manager or bill. we all got up and left at 10:39pm. That place was the major waste of time!

A Gem in The Grove

by mpatrizio at Citysearch

I've dined at Ginger Grove on twice. The food is almost on par with the local heavyweights. Reasonable price (2 dined for $150: desert & wine bottle).

The Butterfish main course is simply superb, & the skirt steak melts in your mouth.

The lobster egg rolls & dumplings were great appetizers. The Ahi tuna left us disappointed since it was more of a ceviche.

The service was slow and sloppy. The drinks and re-filling the water took a long time.

The sin came on our second visit. In a group of 8; the waiter suggested that all the food comes out "family style". They served directly to each person, leaving 2 of us without food. We placed 2 more orders then the server tried to clear the plates before I was finished. This was NOT "Family Style".

Regardless, I look forward to returning because the food was just outstanding.

• Pros: Amazing Food, Location & Ambiance, , OK For kids, Parking
• Cons: Slow Sloppy Service
