We did not know it had a dress code until we walked up, thankfully we were dressed to part that day or that would have been awkward. Prices were a bit more than expected, might have cued in if we knew of dress code, but we did not. Not a problem just nice to know beforehand when possible.

Small and intimate spot that offers exceptional service (thank you Tiffany), a great vibe and some of the best Sushi I have had in years. We had Chef Dan Special and Seared Salmon which also holds tuna and yummy goodies that were a flavor experience. Waits can be long at peak time so don’t be shy about grabbing a spot in the bar/lounge as service is very attentive and comfortable setting. So happy a local friend recommended!

Sooooo amazing. 5 of us for dinner, Dan was our waiter and he was just fabulous. Lots of great suggestions and very attentive despite being very busy. The food is absolutely fantastic with nothing falling short of the mark. Drinks were great, sushi wonderful, as was the miso cod. Will definitely be back. Great manager here too who kept everyone happy.

“Red Ginger” undoubtedly sits atop our list of favored dining establishments. Its atmosphere exudes elegance, setting the stage for an exceptional dining experience complemented by impeccable service. Don’t miss the chance to indulge in their delightful Thai curry and the calamari appetizer—both dishes have undeniably earned their place as must-tries every time we visit.

food is so average and portion sizes were way too small!! paid $12 for 2 pieces of nigiri and $18 for the chefs signature roll that was dry and was just shrimp with a nut on top. really disappointed after all the reviews.

This is the third time we’ve tried to eat here. I made a reservation online for a birthday girl. The table was ready at the time requested. The service was very professional, and the menu options are broad. We really enjoyed the pacing of the meal, you can enjoy conversation and drinks. This isn’t to say it was slow, we ordered and the food came fairly quickly, just that they staggered the orders as we ate. Everything was very flavorful with our only possible issue being that our yuzu roll fell apart everytime. Would strongly recommend the Chinese ribs and the ginger tuna roll.

My boyfriend and I celebrated our anniversary at Red Ginger and had an amazing experience! The cocktails were very delicious and the sushi was the best I’ve ever had. Extremely fresh fish! The pork buns were also incredible. Our server Sarah was very kind and attentive. Hoping to come back soon!

Excellent dinner. My husband made a reservation on Tuesday for Thursday dinner at 745pm for my birthday. The reservation asked for an occasion and he input my birthday. We arrived and we seated right away to a birthday card signed by all the staff and chefs. I ordered Lobster Fried Rice and a Glass of wine. He ordered 2 kinds of sushi and a cocktail. We both ordered dessert. They gave us 2 complimentary truffles as a birthday treat with a candle. The atmosphere was lovely and great, though it was a little louder than I expected (which is fine, people were having a great time).

We went there for an anniversary reservation and the staff was phenomenal. A cordial greeting upon entry, a card at our table, and white glove service throughout the evening. Truly cannot express enough appreciation.

We celebrated our anniversary here and they were so sweet. The table had a card signed by the staff and the food was tasty. I knocked over my glass and broke it. They cleaned it up like secret agents- it was like it didn’t even happen. 🙂
