Ginger - KINGWOOD
Ginger
Description
A neighborhood sushi destination earns praise for fresh, well-crafted rolls, crisp gyoza and standout teriyaki and hot-and-sour soup; chefs and servers are often warm and efficient, making it a dependable spot for quick lunches or sushi dates.
However, diners note uneven quality across non-sushi dishes, small portions and price/value concerns, occasional billing or management snags and a warm, humid dining room; verify lunch cutoff times and expect the best from their sushi offerings.

We frequent this cozy spot for sushi, miso soup, poke bowls,edamame and more. Excellent service, consistent as well since we discovered Ginger Cafe in 2016. The restaurant industry is a very challenging business so to be able to remain open and provide food and services that are consistent is in itself and art and highly acquired skill. When we want comfort food, good energy and don’t want to waste our money on bad food- we go here! ?????
THe food is amazing and Abbey is my favorite server. Jason, the Sushi Chef is awesome. Spenser, Nathan and Justin are great, but if you get Donna, she is very snobby. She treats you like she is better than you. I don't like to go if she is there.
The food wasn’t very good besides the sushi, everything was bland or tasted bad. I sent back the octopus appitizer because it was chewy and lacking in the taste department. We were still charged for it. The soups was downright horrible. Won’t be returning, only positive was that the servers were super sweet.
I ordered the teriyaki shrimp and hot and sour soup. The soup arrived first, and it was fantastic—spicy and tangy with plenty of tofu and mushrooms. The bento box followed, and it was quite good as well. The vegetables were fresh and coated in a savory brown sauce, while the salad was enjoyable, topped with generous amounts of ginger dressing. It also came with white rice, which was alright. The shrimp, five medium-sized pieces, were grilled to perfection, and the teriyaki sauce was exquisite—sweet and peppery in a way I hadn't tasted before. Overall, the food was excellent, and I will definitely return for that reason alone. However, I will make sure to arrive early to avoid the unpleasant attitude of the server (Abby). If you don't serve customers after 2:30 PM, that information should be clearly stated somewhere. The menu states lunch hours are from 11 AM to 3 PM, not to 2:30 PM or earlier.
