Lovely wee small restaurant for lunch and dinner. Went here with a few people from work. It has a good lunch menu with diverse food ranging from steak and duck to soup and noodles. Its handy if you want to go to the cinema on the Dublin road afterwards or even to the Europa bus station and its literally a... More

Great dining experience. Pleasant ambiance, clean and comfortable. Excellent, reasonably priced, menu and drink choice. High quality, superbly presented food. Friendly, attentive, staff with a fast and efficient service. Highly recommend this venue and we would certainly visit again. Very popular - we tried, twice, to get a table, before we got lucky

Lovely bistro with good atmosphere. Was busy but had a good buzz - it was a bit noisy though and with a party it was difficult to speak / hear everyone around table. Food good, I had lemon sole and it was very nice. Service as with a smile too!

Charming place. Excellent green tea, must have if you like. Food was good but nothing exceptional. Deserts were better. Helpful personnel. We had to have dinner within 2 hours since we were asked to leave the table for the next reservation.... so get prepared....

Ginger is a fab little restaurant. The food is delicious, the wine is great, the staff are lovely and the squid is without doubt the best you will taste in Belfast.

If you want a reasonably priced lunch in a relaxed atmosphere, then Ginger may be the place for you. Lunchtime was busy with a good buzz. Food was delicious...........mussels with chorizo (slightly too salty but I still polished them off) followed by Thai beef salad for me. A delicately balanced red wine recommended by a friendly staff member rounded things... More

We called by as a 'blow by' (not booked!) on a Saturday night and were offered a table by very helpful staff. The restaurant is cosy and has a lovely atmosphere, the food and service were excellent and we both enjoyed a great meal on our first night in Belfast. The staff went out of their way to be helpful,... More

We were at Ginger to celebrate St Valentines (even through it was a few day late) and we had a wonderful meal. We would recommend the 'Stump Jump' wine. A fresh very drinkable white wine.
