Cool place, with pretty good food. Mostly sir fry and southern Asian cuisine. Decor is like a colonial British idea of fancy dining in SE Asia.
They had a DJ when I was there, which was weird considering the venue.
Like I said, cool place just an interesting choice on what they're trying to do.

I visited on a saturday with two other people. The server was a little flustered, and as he under the drinking age he confessed he couldn't make any cocktail recommendations from his own experience. The hostess provided some good recs, though.
My companions each had the green curry in coconut milk with udon noodles, and they both loved it. I always try pad thai at every restaurant that has it, and I knew going in that this was not necessarily a 'classic' PT, but something new, with a soy sauce base.
Unfortunately it lacked the aspects of PT I appreciate the most - namely, crisp bean sprouts, green onions, and peanuts (there were plenty of the latter at least). The sauce was too heavy and overpowered the delicate balance of the other ingredients, and the sauce "puddled" on the bottom as opposed to lightly coating the noodles.
It didn't taste bad, but the texture was just dull and boring - without the crispness of fresh, less cooked bean sprouts and green onions, it just had an overall 'soft' mouthfeel, with the thankful addition of good peanuts.
The named, classic cocktails were all decidedly in the 'sweet' category, with no 'dry,' more savory cocktails to be found. I did enjoy the tequila mockingbird, with a hint of black pepper dusting the top.
Overall, I'd return and try other dishes, but I'd probably pass on the cocktails entirely and stick with their large beer selection.

This place is delicious. I'm in love with the Penang Curry. Could drink it its rich and creamy...and there is the perfect meat to veggie eatio....their ginger drinks are fun, fresh and vibrant. And the decor here is very elegant, almost like you were in a French cafe.

Lots of vegetarian options. Carmelized cream cheese wontons are amazing. Best fried rice I've had...with curry seasoning. I want to eat here every day!

Absolutely best happy hour in Minneapolis. Great deal on food and drinks. One of the few places that has amazing cocktails included in the happy hour. Great burgers and kimchi spring rolls and satay! Come here often! The white cosmo is to die for. Not really but it’s a nice light but not too sweet drink.

It was a great experience... I'm not fond of Curry and a lot of their dishes are with Curry. The fried rice was wonderful!

This is one of my all time favorite restaurants in the twin cities. The food is always prepared really well with attention down to the last detail. The price to portion size is very good so you really get a great value. They have options for everyone including vegans and have some mind blowingly amazing creations. The cherry on top is the service. The staff there is always so nice and they do all of the little touches right too like boxing up your food for you in the back. I highly recommend this place but be warned, you'll keep going out of your way just to go back.

Second time here (first time for brunch) and it was great! We sat on the bar side and were treated to attentive service, a wide selection of drinks, and food that arrived quick with great presentation. The Bloody Mary was garnished well and reasonably priced. Come here for a solid menu of brunch options, great selection of cocktails and beers, and a nice atmosphere perfect for conversation.

Best Happy hour, and good qaulity ingredients from wings to Thai fried rice to satay!

We got the booth in the little cut out with the curtains and it was a super cozy feeling. It was really nice to be tucked away from the buzz of the rest of the restaurant. However, being tucked away also meant our service was a little slower because our server couldn't easily see when we were low on beverages and such. Really great food, though, and I'll definitely be back!

Consistently excellent Asian Fusion cuisine. Terrific appetizers, entrees, and desserts. The grilled salmon on zoodles with sweet green curry is our favorite!
Prices are reasonable for the quality and portion size.
Ginger Hop is our regular destination for a great night out. Staff is always cool and respectful.
Jay Cox
The atmosphere is charming and the prices are reasonable. Perhaps we had a server with an off day, but the food for our table of six came out at relatively the same time, and tasted delicious; the drinks were tasty. Great menu selection with plenty of vegan and vegetarian options.

Two of us went to Ginger Hop yesterday for restaurant week. The experience was delightful. We sat outside. The server was very attentive, checking on us frequently, but not too much. The food was delicious. We had the fresh ginger stir fry and the sweet green curry - both were very flavorful. The brownie for dessert comes with a scoop of vanilla ice cream drizzled with caramel sauce - delicious! I had never visited Ginger Hop previously, but I will be back. Highly recommend based on service and food quality.

Great happy hour! Loved all the food.

I had the garlic pepper stir fry with beef and thought it was the best stir fry I have ever had. The flavors melded together well, nothing overpowering, there wasn’t any aftertaste, overall a wonderful dish. The other members of our party had General Tsings chicken (which she loved), almond chicken stir fry which also brought great comments. We had the wings as an appetizer and they were also very good. Finished up with the fruit crisp which was excellent also. Service was attentive and well paced. I would definitely recommend this restaurant and will come back!

Had my birthday dinner there this Saturday. Bartenders and drinks were great, waitress/service above average and food was delicious! Some of the best fried rice I've had and the banh mi was SO good. Also, the music they were playing was on point and probably my favorite part of the whole evening! 👌🏼

Visited this place for the first time last night and had an excellent experience. It was a busy night for the restaurant with 3 large parties and we still had great service. I'm stoked to have found another restaurant that offers vegan options! Thank you! :)
