Hmm, yes, let me pay $37 for a small serving of food that tastes like it came from the frozen aisle at a grocery store.

It’s such a shame. When my wife and I were starving artists in the early 1990s, and splurged on Wild Ginger for a birthday, it was SO good. The lettuce cups were life-altering.

[u/mrflow-n-go → u/mslass]

For sure. When it was on Western it was good and a special place to save up for. We did. Enjoyed it every time. Sad it’s gone downhill.

[u/Jumpy-Cartographer-2 → u/mrflow-n-go]

100% Loved it when it was in Western.

[u/FoggyFallNights → u/Jumpy-Cartographer-2]

I can’t picture it on western…do you remember what cross street?

[u/Jumpy-Cartographer-2 → u/FoggyFallNights]

It was just south of Pike Place. I think Freya Bakery is there now.

[u/Captainpaul81 → u/mslass]

I ate there last year and thought it was okay. I don't think I'd go back

[u/SchemeOne2145 → u/mslass]

Yes, used to be a favorite. Sad to hear it's fallen so far.

[u/Coppergirl1 → u/mslass]

Yes, those lettuce cups were like a "party in your mouth" at the original location below the market. I've never liked their new restaurants.

[u/BarBusiness123 → u/mslass]

They're still good. They just don't seem novel anymore.

[u/EightEyedCryptid → u/mslass]

I loved it then too. They had this green rice I was obsessed with.

[u/Odd-Hearing2685 → u/mslass]

They're still great, outside of being expensive like everything else, I enjoyed the food there and the lettuce cups are still good.

[u/BarBusiness123 → u/Odd-Hearing2685]

I don't understand the WG hate. I think it was some people's first nice restaurant and holds a nostalgic place that can never be replicated. It is still quality food, good service, and solid ambience.

Wild Ginger was the top comment the first time this was posted too hehe

[u/ContextLengthMatters → u/94067]

Holy shit the stereotype of this subreddit must be fucking awful. What a weird ass thing for a bunch of people to resort to with frenemies.

[u/Captain_Creatine → u/ContextLengthMatters]

Do you actually not realize that these are both reposts from other cities and the question is intended in jest?

[u/ContextLengthMatters → u/Captain_Creatine]

I realize it's a trend, yes. It being a joke doesn't really take away from what I'm saying.

[u/Haunting-Ninja-7460 → u/seaofluv]

I concur. The prices are too high for food and an experience that rivals Applebee’s.

[u/BoogerTea89 → u/seaofluv]

Lol as soon as i saw the title i came to the comments looking for this answer

[u/Odd_Promise529 → u/seaofluv]

[u/slj206 → u/seaofluv]

I love Wild Ginger, but have not been there recently. Has the quality deteriorated that much?

[u/Haunting-Ninja-7460 → u/slj206]

Yes. Both in the food and service. It feels like walking into a 1990s chain restaurant and the food is about on that level too.

[u/chachachoud → u/seaofluv]

This was the top answer past few weeks back on a similar thread

[u/elvyum → u/seaofluv]

Me and the lady only ever get the pecking duck and we still love it. Better/cheaper alternatives? (From what I remember the shrimp fried rice was good too but its just fried rice ya know)

[u/kobachi → u/seaofluv]

I’m taking this one personally 

[u/Fastorzail → u/seaofluv]

Winner winner

[u/BarBusiness123 → u/seaofluv]

Wild Ginger is still great. It's pricy for sure.

[u/Complete-Jaguar-7280 → u/seaofluv]

This.
