We had a lovely evening celebrating our son’s 15th birthday with family and friends at The Ginger Bistro. Thank you to Soji, Simon and all the staff who made our evening go really well, nothing was too much trouble. The food was delicious...’the best linguine I’ve had. We’ll be coming back and would highly recommend.
The Ginger Bistro – PrestonShown to a lovely table, very friendly staff. Unfortunately the wine I drink was only available by the bottle which was a shame so I had to choose something else. The starter took a little while to arrive but was cooked to perfection. My main was the buck breast special which was to my taste slightly over cooked but very tender and juicy. The sides were amazing and the jus was generous.of the meal was fantastic. Best of all the young lady who served us had a beautiful, friendly smile every time she came to our table. I would thoroughly recommend We didn't stay for dessert but the rest
The Ginger Bistro – PrestonVisited The Ginger Bistro about 4/5 times now with various people, sometimes for lunch, dinner or just dropped in for a catch-up-coffee. Each time I have been the service has been good and the food lovely last nigh was no different.
The Ginger Bistro – PrestonWe visited here on Saturday night and got a table early at 5.30pm so it was pretty quiet only 2 other tables in. The setting was nice and nice decor, however the tables are very small so you can't fit a side plate on your table which I find annoying as I feel as it things are going to get knocked off the table easily, also paper napkins! The menu prices looked standard for a good restaurant and we ordered some bread on arrival which I have to say the choices of bread were lovely especially the nutty one, however it came with 2 bottles of the cheapest olive oil, so I asked for some balsamic, I poured a tiny bit on my plate and it was disgusting like it was off it was a very cheap Lidl one so I notified the waitress. Starters were lovely hubby had pate and I had fishcake although neither looked home made it was nice. I ordered chicken for my main which was a special with cheese and tomato and a sweet potato rosti, the chicken was cooked lovely although very sparse tomato the thinnest slice of a cheep salad tomato i've ever seen! For £17 I would expect to actually be able to taste the ingredients. The rosti was horrendous though extreme saltiness in faft so bad that my tongue started burning and has just stopped 3 days later! The rosti tasted nothing like sweet potato because of all the over spice and salt and it was burnt round the edge and the rest soggy as the chicken had been presented on top. I did tell the waitress that I wasn't happy but not sure it was passed on. I think the chefs do spend a lot of time on the food presentation, however it is no good being presented nicely when the flavour and texture, quality of the food is lacking. I will say the waiting staff were lovely and polite, but I didn't see a manager anywhere they didn't come round and see if guests were OK like I would normally expect. So for that reason I wont be returning.
The Ginger Bistro – PrestonExcellent food in a relaxed atmosphere. The service was enthusaistic to the point where we were offered 3 menus at the same time! Far better than none! That is being really picky as the staff were generally young and inexperienced, however they were super friendly, Professionally turned out and nothing was too much trouble. Would we recommend a visit....no.....we recommend several visits to try all the menu as our choices were delicious, you will not be disappointed!

The Ginger Bistro – PrestonOnce again a great meal & great service
The Ginger Bistro – PrestonThe food was great however when we arrived we asked to use our meerkat voucher. No problem came the answer. When the bill came the waiter told us that due to us ordering tapas we were not eligable to use our voucher. We felt really cheated. So beware!
