Reviews for Lucky Ginger in Milwaukee, WI
Everything was delicious! We got Special Pho (with rare steak, brisket, and Vietnamese meatballs), crispy squid, and of course,... the highly recommended dumplings. Read more
The waitress behind the bar was super short, even though she offered menu suggestions she seem uninterested. The first thing out... of her mouth was ?do you know what you what to eat??, not ?hello, how are you??. Blah?.. The bar wasn?t busy at all, in facthardly any people in there. The pork belly was decent, but the beef on a stick was very dry. When I ordered the drunken noodlesI was asked my spice level. 1-5, I of course picked 5 and it wasn?t spicy at all. It had flavor but it?s not something I wouldorder again. This probably won?t be on my ?go to again? places. Read more
Always a great experience. Awesome = pho, beef on a stick, chicken satay, lemon grass pork chop, ginger steak, kimchi. Not so... awesome = fried meatballs. Note = Dumplings only have a ball of meat in them. Not ground, as it stated it did. More like apatty. Would be better if it had viggies in it as well. Read more
In Milwaukee for work and was looking for good Thai food in the area. My go to is always Basil Fried rice and the version here... was very good. The staff was nice and helpful. Would definitely recommend Read more
Amazing Pad Thai!! If you like Spicy, level 3 to 5 are your answer when asked ???? the sauce for the Veggie egg rolls make the... egg rolls!! A little heavy on the black pepper in the egg roll but it was still good. Read more
Honestly, some of the best food I?ve ever had in Milwaukee. But on top of the amazing food, the vibes are awesome. The staff... members are super friendly and if you snag a seat at the bar you?ll more than likely end up chatting it up with some kindMilwaukee locals. Now back to the food. The chicken wings on the appetizer menu are *chef kiss* perfect. It?s always cookedperfectly every time with great flavor. With my second favorite appetizer being the squid. As for main dishes I always go forthe drunken noodles, pad thai ( both dishes you can customize your spice level and add your choice of protein, I usually chooseshrimp ) the Pho or the BBQ Salmon. Pick any of those dishes and I promise you won?t regret it. Read more
Gross bathroom really makes me question kitchen standards?. Food was great. Service was wonderful, Christy was awesome.... Bathroom was not so good. Had the pad Thai with chicken, offered I think 6 spice levels, I went with 4 as I usually enjoy spicyfood, but I didn?t want my eyes to water or to drip sweat profusely from my forehead. It was the perfect amount of spice for me.I was glad I didn?t pick 3 or 5. My friend had the seafood pho which was also very delicious and flavorful. I wanted to try thepork belly, but they were all out for the day. Was slightly disappointed with the size of the side kimchi; it cost $3 and wasjust 5 small pieces of cabbage. I was expecting more for $3. Overall a good experience and I would definitely return. Thanks forthe great service Read more
I remembered enjoying eating here so I came back at long last. I stopped for a late weekday lunch when there weren't a lot of... customers and got a spot at the bar. I had a cup of tom yum with veggies and the drunken noodles with tofu. You can pay extrafor protein in the soup but I liked it with just veggies. The sour and lightly sweet clear broth is what it's really aboutanyway. It was refreshing with the crisp vegetables. I ordered my noodles at spice level 4 (out of 5) and they had a nicesinus-clearing kick without the spice overwhelming the dish. They had a nice aromatic flavor from the basil and there was plentyof contrast between the thick noodles, stir-fried vegetables, scrambled eggs, and the tofu. I like the bar seating because youcan watch people on the street. Will have to come back again. Read more
