Ginger & Garlic delivers exactly what you hope for when craving well-executed Asian comfort food. It’s not about flashy or fancy here, the focus here is on good flavours, speed, and satisfaction.
We worked our way through a spread that ticked all the boxes. The Vegetable Spring Rolls, the Fried Chicken Buns, the Beef Mandu (dumplings) were all solid.
The Kimchee was worth ordering, and opens the door for someone to mention their “gut biome” during lunch.
We also got the Beef Bulgogi Bibimbap which was yummy and the Spicy Salt & Chilli Soft Shell Crab was crisp and delivered a pleasant balance of spices and some mild heat.
The Roast Duck Fried Rice was excellent and my favourite dish of the day. I kept going back to it and is the kind of thing you’d order again next time without hesitation.
Service was friendly and efficient, the food came out quickly, fresh and hot. Ginger & Garlic knows what it does, and it does right. A reliable, delicious option well known to locals...
Read moreI’ve been at this restaurant for the first time last week and since the friend who recommended it suggested to go for a Korean dish, I choose the Beef Bibimbap. It was my first time trying Korean food and honestly I couldn’t believe how good the food was. The Bibimbap is served in a hot bowl and contains rice, vegetables, one egg and the chosen main ingredient (beef, chicken, pork, eel or seafood). The beef was tender and a sweet sauce compensated amazingly the spiciness of the dish, also being the bowl really hot the rice at the bottom quickly became nicely crispy. The Bibimbap itself was already filling and it was about £9 including also a miso soup. The staff has been really nice and welcoming as well and I’ve seen the restaurant also offers karaoke rooms and some tables with a small integrated barbecue to cook the food by yourselves. Would definitely recommend and will...
Read moreReally good, and one of our favourite places to eat in Cheltenham. You can go for the barbecue option, £25 per head (less the more people you have) where you get a load of sides, lots of chicken, lamb, beef, king prawn and fish balls marinated in different sauces for you to cook at the table. If that isn't your thing, there's an impressive range of Korean food. The Bimibap in sizzling stone bowls is delicious, and the crispy rice at the bottom makes a good incentive to eat everything. There's a karaoke room at the back you can hire. My daughter hired it for her birthday, and had a great time. The place is small, but has a nice atmosphere. The sizzling of the food you occasionally hear really adds to the experience. We couldn't finish all the food, but have plenty boxed up for...
