wild ginger has a private room upstairs that i recently went to for a small wedding reception of about 30 people. it had been set up with a long table down the middle that was wide enough for four people to sit at each head of the table and 15 (?) along each side. dedicated servers roved around taking drink orders and offering nibbles as guests arrived and then narrated the various courses as they were served family style. i've reviewed wild ginger before so check out my posting to learn more about the food but i thought the setting was outstanding for a small gathering. the waitstaff was charming and pleasant but not at all overbearing

Lunch today at Wild Ginger was awful...our group of 7 was seated at 11:45 and ordered the three course lunch at noon. The appetizers took about 15 minutes to arrive, but then we waited a full HOUR before the main dish came. We asked about it a couple of times, and were told that it would just be a couple of minutes (each time). We finally told the concierge at the front desk, and the waitress then came by and said they lost our ticket and would comp us for the meal. We were supposed to have a dessert course, but by then it was almost 1:45, we had been there two hours and we had to go back to work - so we just left without saying a word to the waitress who seemed to have disappeared. Needless to say, we didn't leave a tip. This is not the first time this has happened...I don't think I want to go there until they make some improvements. I understand it gets very busy at lunch and mistakes can be made, but waiting an hour to tell us our ticket was lost is not acceptable. Oh yeah, the waiter who took our order had alcohol on his breath, which might explain why our ticket got lost. I'm not kidding. We all smelled it - I can't believe he was even allowed to work at one of Seattle's 'nicer' restaurants.

My wife and I recently came to Seattle to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. On the recommendation of our hotel concierge and several friends at home in NYC, we elected to dine at Wild Ginger on our last night in town. Upon our arrival, the charming and gorgeous hostess, Alyssa, graciously offered us an intimate booth. This came as much of a shock, as we had heard it is near impossible to get in without a reservation. Our service was superlative--both Eric, our server, and Chris, the sommelier, were equally charming and knowledgeable. Our food (lamb chops marinated in cognac, seared ahi) was nothing short of spectacular. My wife and I travel and dine out quite frequently, and Wild Ginger is now at the top of our list. We can't wait to come back to the Emerald City again to visit this rare gem.
Pros: service staff, food, wine, spirits menu
Cons: , no Manhattan location

I made a reservation during a birthday trip. Upon arriving, I was seated immediately and served efficiently. The food was spectacular, and truly Asian in authenticity. I had excellent chicken potstickers, along with prawns satay followed by a really spicy clam and basil dish, the spiciest I have had in America outside of any Chinese restaurant. Having recently returned from Thailand and Laos, and having previously visited Singapore and Hong Kong, I can say that this restaurant is the best American representative of Pan-Asian cuisine.
Pros: Food, Service, Authenticity

While I no longer live in Seattle, Wild Ginger remains one of my favorite restaurants. The sometimes unusual but always tasty food pairings are served by attentive but not fussy wait staff. The satays are great but my favorite is the duck. They have a respectable wine list.
I have never been disappointed at the Wild Ginger.

The dining room here is large, elegant, yet casual, with clean lines and an Asian influence. On busy nights, waits for a table can be long. If you are on a date, just hang out at the bar until your table is ready, relax and have fun. Ideally, it is best to make a reservation. They are located right across the street from Benaroya Hall, so it is a great spot to dine before or after a show.
I have not ordered anything here I didn't like. The food is great. The are servers professional and can help make a good entree choice.
When I come here I always feel like the whole experience was a treat.
