With its friendly yellow and gold decor and small strip of outdoor seating and Ginger is welcome spot for a light meal, coffee or a cocktail. Located in the cluster of tres chic stores at the western end of Fuxing Lu Ginger exudes peaceful aura. The Pink Martinis croon softly on the stereo and cappuccinos come with a single ginger snap cookie.

I go there over and over again whether to enjoy the relaxed but slightly bohemian atmosphere or to have business meetings in a casual ambiance. GInger also helps me survive when I starve after 10.00pm since their take away food is always fresh and tasty!

Thank you for your comment. We appreciate your positive comments on our food and have taken very seriously your feedback.
Ginger would like to assure all our customers that we use the best ingredients and original liquor brands at all our outlets. Your experience was unfortunate and in future, please notify our Assistant Managers if drinks are not prepared to your preferences.
Regarding the Mojito, we use Barcadi 151 with a 75% alcohol content, thus the taste of rum should be present. In future when you order this drink, please mention your preference as we have some customers requesting lighter versions.
As for Ginger Sling, ginger is the main ingredient and perhaps there is a mis-communication with our staff on your fruity request. May we suggest you try our other favourities like Oriental Mule, Calpirinha etc, next time?
Your comments are valuable and we apologize that the drinks are not up to your expectations. We look forward to welcoming you back to Ginger Fuxing soon.
Thank you!

A bit disappointed.
I had eaten here before and enjoyed the rosemary chicken. Tonight (June 23, 2009) we ordered the seared tuna and the rosemary chicken. Both didn't warrant being eaten and we finished having only eaten a portion of both dishes (painful given the bill was over 300 RMB with soft drinks). The tuna was dried up on the outside (either reheated or poorly cooked) as was the chicken as well. Had to laugh at the menu which states that they are inspired by Japanese service and quality standards as they are so far away from that.
Service was unresponsive and one guy just sat in front of a fax waiting for Sherpa's orders. We joked that it would have been quicker to get someone's attention by calling Sherpa's and having it delivered to the actual restaurant. Should have picked up on the signs and left without ordering....
Hope it gets better....

I was very pleased with the exceptional food, prices, ambiance and service at Ginger. However, I left the place unhappy with a huge headache. I have been to all sorts of bars in Shanghai, and never thought of writing in to review any site, but this time, I do have an awfully strong headache from the drink I just orderd at Ginger. I got the impression that the alcohol ingredients used for the cocktail mixes could be of questionable origin. My husband was served a Mojito which did not smell nor taste of rum. I had asked for a Ginger Sling hoping for a fruity flavored drink and warning the bartender that I did not want a ginger flavored drink, to find that the drink tasted of nothing else but ginger, and the alcohol used caused me a headache from the first sip. This experience only causes me to lose confidence in the place. We left without finishing our drinks to avoid any possible risk.
