Wild Ginger Restaurant in Aberdeen City

We had a great time here in Aberdeen. Really nice place for dine in at WILD GINGER. Food was excellent. Friendly staff.. highly recommended..

Love it every time I have been.

Hell yeah, that was good stuff. Definitely return. I had the lamb chettinad, south Indian dish. Was amazing 👏

Staff were lovely. Restaurant was lovely and food was so good. Can't wait to go back. Would highly recommend.

Lovely and food was delicious. M

lovely meal, lovely atmosphere and the food was amazing special service from mamta is brilliant she is so kind and polite. And always smiling .. we received excellent service from her .. we will gonna come back …

The food was excellent, the service not really, The staff were borderline rude This my second time there and the same experience.

done a takeaway, chicken chasney tasted like it had a bottle of vinegar poured in it, chips were soggy. heard good things about this place but dissapointed.

Amazing food with a wonderful and friendly atmosphere and service!!! Recommended 💯. The attendant was amazing!!!! The restaurant has a relaxed atmosphere and nice decor. The plates came quickly and hot!!! I like my food like that!!!! Thank you for the lovely service!!!!

Lovely place and delicious food 😋 Mamta was especially welcoming, thank you 😊🙏🏼 We had Bhindi Bhaji, Tadka Dal, Paneer Biryani, Chilli Broccoli, and Tandoori Roti. The Tadka Dal was a little on the salty side, but everything was wonderfuly spiced and flavoursome. Will definitely come back again 😀👍🏻

Extensive traditional Indian cuisine with a really interesting set of twists on the side. Decor is understated and there is no strong aroma of food. They are downstairs (conveniently right off the high street) so there is no cell signal but a decent WiFi supply. Had the Brie and aloo friend balls which were super crispy outside and creamy and soft inside and just the right level of spiciness. Main was Katmandhu Lamb (a house specialty) with paratha and basmati rice. Finished the lot. Lamb was tender and spicy. Paratha may as well had made of silk. Mumtha my server was friendly and knowledgeable and steered me towards the right choices. Would recommend.

Over priced. Tiny portions. Shame as curry (sauce) itself was good apart from the weird consistency of some of my chicken. Asda naan bread. Starter was good, and that's it. Staff looked silly busy for a Tuesday. Spoiled my birthday. Thanks

Visited following a recommendation after friends had a takeaway when in the area. I was quite disappointed. Food was tasty but the portion sizes were very poor and it was very expensive, still hungry when we left. Over £80 for 3 mains, 2 naan bread, 1 rice and 4 drinks. I had a chicken korma with a cheese & garlic naan. There was very little sauce which meant I ran out before I finished my naan, I was only half way through. I also had to send my naan bread back for a replacement. It was literally covered in what I think was coriander. I don't like coriander and this is not something I have experienced in other restaurants. The staff were friendly. The restaurant was also a bit cold. We had to ask to move tables due to a draft which was accommodated. It's not somewhere I will be in any rush to visit again.

Delicious when sitting-in or ordering a takeaway. Tangra style chilli chicken is a particularly great starter.

It's just wonderful. The food is second to none. Make a point of coming here as you'll not be disappointed.

Awesome food and very nice ambiance, need and clean space and very well behaved and well mannered staff ; spacial thanks Ms.Mamta for helping us to chose dishesh and her hospitatly is pgenomenal. Great indian food highly recommended... Enjoy

If you fancy a lost weekend with food poisoning I can recommend the Monkfish. Staff didn’t care either when we contacted them to advise. We weren’t looking for anything as we will never be back but some empathy would have gone some way.

Lovely Indian. Very quiet Sunday night. Chilli broccoli 🥦 to stay, something special. Mushroom biryani and chicken chasnai. Nice large portions. Point of larger and a glass of white wine. £60. Great friendly service

Fabulous meal! The food was flavourful and fresh. No pastes as you often have in Indian Restaurants, you could see the ingredients. All our choices were the same quality. Good service too. The decor is also lovely. Only negative is it’s hard to spot as it’s on the lower floor and has a small sign. Next to Six by Nico.

Quantity is too less for both Chicken and lamb biryani's. chicken had got more colour than taste in the biryani, the feeling was, more pieces less rice without a balance between them, and had more chilli. I had a biryani here first time in my life without Raita..🙃🙏 WC available Unfriendly staff ! (Didn't even bother to ask about the food) First & Last visit

Nice setting and very central, but food is very average. Very strong colouring, butter chicken is in bright red watery sauce, not thick or creamy. Very disappointed.

This has to be one of the best Indian meals we have ever had. Turned up without a booking on a a Saturday and managed to get a table. Food was fresh and very flavoursome. Really enjoyed it.

Food vey mediocre, service was rushed. Cappuccino was terrible. Staff very offhand. Conversation can be difficult when there are large parties making a lot of noise.

Great meal with great service. Well worth a visit

Chicken tikka masala was one of the worst i have had so far. Just a red mass like runny puree full of desiccated coconut. Zero spice. Staff wasn’t very friendly too.

Amazing food and great service as always

One of the biggest and busiest Indian restaurants I have been to in the UK. Big menu, lots of classics and new curries. Tasty food with fresh ingredients, good service if a little slow with sound advice on menu choices. Naan a highlight - fresh. 🌶️ Hot means hot here. Plenty of draft lager to wash it down.

Went solo here last night. Food was absolutely amazing! Onion bhaji , mixed Balti and mushroom pilau. Flavours were just incredible! So busy for a Wednesday night - obviously very popular with the locals! It was recommended to me by the taxi driver too! Service was very friendly, especially from the waitress from Nepal, Mamta. Would highly recommend a meal here if you are in Aberdeen.

Very good Indian restaurant with a lovely decor and atmosphere. Food was really good and service was great too. Nicely positioned on Union Street. Definitely will go here again.

Food was delicious, highly recommend the chicken tikka chettinad!! Staff were excellent and the birthday balloons and cake was a lovely surprise.

Brilliant night out with friends. Food was amazing

Called to ask if there was accessible access. Asked four times before I was then asked how many people. I said in wheelchairs or how many people do I want to book for? How many people are coming the man asked. 4 I replied. No we don’t have access I was told. I’m bemused. What was I asked how many people were coming as if I gave the wrong answer for there to be access. Have booked shabaaz.

Had a fabulous meal last night at Wild Ginger We were a group of 8 ladies enjoying a night out The food was really lovely Plenty of choice The service was also excellent Our waiter was very attentive and very friendly The restaurant was busy and had a good atmosphere Would definitely recommend

We were a very large party, all the food came out together, and was all excellent . Impressive menu, too much to choose from. Will definitely be back.

Food was really good. Staff was really nice and welcoming especially Mamta thank for your service. She was really lovely. The food was presented in a very nice and clean and well decor.

Great Indian restaurant in Aberdeen. Food was very good and the service was great. Atmosphere was okay but nothing superlative to be recognized.

Such a shame as used to be one of the better Indian restaurants. Food still great but the service has gone down hill and the wine no matter which red you pick is shocking for the prices they are charging, the dearest one is as bad as the cheapest. Friend say the same about the white wine. I have tried a few times but as the wine is as important as the food and the wine is shocking I will be giving Wild Ginger a miss.

Great food and great service. Mumta was excellent all night and made me feel very welcome from start to finish. Great service and fantastic food. Definitely be back again

Had a lovely meal tonight here. Food was amazing and the staff were great. Special mention to John who went out of his way to make the birthday girl feel special. Great restaurant. Will definitely be back!

Had a lovely meal tonight here. Food was amazing. Garlic naan was so good and all the curries we had were so flavourful! The staff were great too, special mention to John who went out of his way to make the birthday girl feel special. Great restaurant. Will definitely be back!

Very good food and service. Highly recommended.

Visited Wild Ginger for the first time after being disappointed with the usual place i go. I'm happy to say i was not disappointed with Wild Ginger. The food and service was fantastic, a special mention to Mumta, who was very courteous and as i was dining alone made me very welcome.

Lovely Indian restaurant, great food, friendly staff all wrapped up in a nice atmosphere, will definitely be back.

Great service, the food came within 15 minutes and the food were perfect! First time visiting Wild Ginger, but "i’ll be back" 👍🏻

Great food and great service. Mumta was excellent all night and made us feel welcome from start to finish. Great service and fantastic food. Great night all round with a fantastic atmosphere.

As far as Indians go this is top tier. The best in Aberdeen by far. We had a large party and the food arrived in good time and bursting with flavour. The presentation impeccable alongside exceptional service from Mumta who managed to deal with multiple special requests from a large group always with a smile! She was a star 🌟 Look forward to our next visit.

Amazing authentic, indian food with a lovely atmosphere. Very kind, helpful and friendly staff. We enjoyed a delicious family dinner, and will definitely be returning in the near future. Highly recommend 😊

Fantastic place, food and service excellent,great atmosphere, very clean,highly recommend it,plus the Calypso Coffees were fantastic👍

Amazing food. Very attentive, friendly staff. A special mention to Mumta for looking after us and engaging conversation. What a delight, and look forward to another delicious meal on my next visit to Aberdeen.

The staff were so friendly, I went by myself and barely had enough money to cover the bill but they served me anyway. The food was one of the best Indian chicken madras curries I have ever had in my life I finished the whole thing in minutes would definitely come here again

A modern style of restaurant with elegant decor and a great atmosphere. I came here as part of a large group for a meal and the service was brilliant. We were seated quickly and starters taken out to us. The food itself was absolutely phenomenal and very filling. I look forward to coming back again!

Excellent Indian food, great service and a warm pleasant atmosphere. We enjoyed ourselves and will certainly be back. A special mention for Mamta who took care of us for her good advice when ordering and her unfailing hospitality. Well done to everyone at Wild Ginger for running such a lovely establishment.

Very good menu, busy but fast, polite and friendly service. Excellent food

Lively Indian restaurant with good quality food and great service. Good menu choices with mix of tradationals and specialities. Garlic Naan was exceptionally good.

Manta was superb, top quality service from her. The food here is always sensational, would highly recommend

Quality of food, service and atmosphere was sensational. I have been to Aberdeen many of times and this by far the best curry house in the area. I would recommend to anyone visiting or lives nearby. A special thank you to Mamta for being one of the best staff members I have encountered in a long time.

Another fantastic meal at Wild Ginger with excellent service by all staff! Never fails to impress! Special mention to Mumta who went above and beyond! 👍😁👏

Food was amazing, taste and presentation! The portion size was just right! Very quick in serving poppadoms, starters and drinks, but slow with the main courses. Would highly recommend the mixed balti with chicken, lamb and prawns, meat was cooked to perfection! Will definitely go back!

Absolutely shocking service tonight. Spent £93 on dinner for 3 people and they forgot a main curry dish. Contacted to advise and no help was given. Said they didn’t have a driver but if I contacted Deliveroo they would send someone. Then said just re order and I will send, I explained there was a minimum spend required and it wouldn’t cover a curry (hindsight it probably would since it’s £15 for one dish!) was then told ‘I can’t speak with you anymore I am busy’ and hung up on me. The food was lukewarm when arrived. Will absolutely never come to this restaurant again nor order. Disgusted at the service, spent a fortune and they clearly aren’t about their customers. Shame on you.

Tried their food for the first time today. We went to celebrate our graduation. We ordered mixed kebab and Lamb with Butter naan. The food was delicious. The atmosphere was nice and warm inside. The staff girl who served the food was so darn nice and great. Thank you Wild Ginger 🫚

Mamta is excellent. She recommend us dishes which is favolous. She is very kind and good at everything. We will come next time to see her..

Brilliant food and service. Large portions and not too expensive. Was there for a birthday and they came with a free cake and candle. Couldn’t do enough for you. Definitely be returning.

Absolutely wonderful. Great food verging on fine dining without the nonsense. Couldn't fault it and the lovely girl who looked after us, Mumta, is a gem

Very well prepared food, pleasantly presented. The range of dishes demonstrates an interest in serving good food, rather than simply turning out “old favourites”.

First visit last week and very impressed indeed. Lovely curry, fantastic service and looking forward to coming back again soon. Highly recommend the Kathmandu Lamb!

I visited, for the first time, on a Wednesday evening. The food and service were great. Really enjoyed a sharing platter, Lamb Rogan Josh, Chicken Claypot with some tasty Naan breads. A great experience and I'll definitely be back.

I had the unfortunate experience to dine here with friends last night Our reservation was made approx 3 weeks ago for 10 people so they had plenty warning. We were to dine at 7.30pm we eventually got our meal (after several reminders) at 9.15pm so...

Go to Aberdeen......got to go to Wild Ginger!Its a 10/10 for me.

This is my best experience at an Indian restaurant. Food was amazing. I especially recommend the Claypot Chicken main - it full of sumptuous flavours. Presentation of the dishes was beautiful and the service most friendly. Restaurant is really nicely decorated and is clean and...

Fantastic food and experience. Great service. Best Indian in Aberdeen.

This was an absolutely amazing experience. Loved every last bit of it from the service food and the cleanliness of the restaurant. Price points were outstanding. I had the prawn spicy dish. Can't remember its name. Other people had chicken tikki masala and butter chicken at the table and they loved it. I was able to try some of the butter chicken and it was amazing.

Fantastic meal. Thoroughly impressed. Starters were excellent as was the main and garlic / garlic and chilli nan bread. Enjoyed it so much I'm planning on taking a trip with the wife from Brookfield, Johnstone with the wife as I know she will love it...

Mamta was excellent. Very friendly and helpful. The food was great; we will be back very soon. Thank you Mamta and team - .

I ordered a takeaway asking if they would use paneer in stead of vegetable dish . 3 bits and Full of broccoli .. etc massively disappointing .. sauce was very watery so ended up with a garlic nan dip ..not for me

I ordered a chicken Clay pot and got a lamb dish covered in rich creamy sauce which was totally not as per description on the menu! Asked to change it, they only removed lamb pieces from the curry n replaced it with chicken tandoori pieces. Poor service n quality. The atmosphere was OK. Tried chicken 65 from my co-visitor's plate and that was fine. I would think twice before returning to dine here again!

Our families favourite indian! Staff made such an effort for my mums birthday including decorations and a cake! The atmosphere was great and our food was delicious as always.

Utterly disappointed! And will not be returning again!! After years of coming here and always having a great experience. In the past few years this restaurant has gone drastically down hill. From a different menu change/crockery (which to my opinion the old menu worked and...

The welcome and service from Mumta was first class and she is a credit to Wild Ginger as she goes above and beyond 👏

Visiting Aberdeen for the 1st time we received a recommendation for the Wild Ginger just today and decided to go there immediately. No regrets! We enjoyed tasteful Indian food in a very genuine atmosphere. Everything was perfect and Mamta was a very pleasant and friendly host. Thank you Mamta for your advice on the dishes.

Edit- second visit in the last few days. Mumta has been the perfect host, beautiful and lovely heart. Big step ahead of the competition in Aberdeen. From the service, the interior design, ambience to the meal. I very rarely leave a rating unless I'm very disappointed. My new favourite place to eat when I'm sent here.

Extremely disrespectful staff . The waiter asked us to leave , said he will give us takeaway , even though we came for dine in because we made a small order of 2 items. Was discourteous, said he needs the needs the table to be vacated for someone else.

Attended Oct 2023. Great food, I had the monkfish claypot which was excellent. Wonderful service, especially from Mumtha, many thanks.

We arrived late (normally too late). They welcomed us with a smile. The Foods was very tasty, perfectly spiced. Also the service were of high standard, friendly, relaxed and professional. This is a place we would love to visit again.

Food excellent, service a tad slow.

Really enjoyable evening. Food, atmosphere, attention to detail all perfect. Shout out to Mumtha, the hostess with the mostest for bigging up our desserts 🤩🤩🤩

Very good food. Real indian taste. Good ambiance and friendly staff specially 'Mumta', smiling and suggested us dishes to order.

We would like to share our experience at Wild ginger restaurant. We are celebrated my wife birthday. So professional and friendly service. Food was so delicious and served so quick! We are definitely back again and highly recommend for everyone!

Lovely meal. Food was perfect and service was fantastic.

Thank you to Mumta for fantastic service with a smile. Thanks to the chefs for the delicious food. The honey murgh tilwala and the pakora starters were excellent as were the mains. Will definitely go back as it’s the nicest Indian food I’ve had in Aberdeen

Food was superb. Bursting with flavour, fragant, spicy and with a lovely depth.

We had a wonderful experience in Wild Ginger last Saturday when we visited them on my wife’s Birthday. The Restaurant was full when we arrived without booking but not only we had a very warm welcome they provided us a table quickly and served some...

Very friendly, enthusiastic staff and exceptional food. The manager even offered to cook a dish for my partner which hasn’t been on the menu for a year. Such personable staff are always a pleasure to come across.

Great place for large bookings. Food great and really friendly staff.

Our favourite Indian restaurant in Aberdeen never disappoints! We turned up early evening having not made a booking so were hopeful of a table. We were given a table without hesitation and with a warm welcome. The staff were friendly, helpful, patient and knowledgeable and...

excellent, still. Been several times (almost every time I'm in Aberdeen). Food is always great and the service is amazing. My favourite Aberdeen restaurant.

Ambience was very nice but that's all I can say was positive. The Chicken Tikka starter was presented well but the tikka coating was flaky and gave a funny taste. Chicken itself was well cooked. The main dish of Ceylon Garlic Chilli was not spicy...

Here on a visit to Aberdeen. Booked online but bit confused over 2 postcodes I found. A extensive menu with some unusual dishes. We had popadoms to nibble. Hubby had the sesame and honey chicken which he loved followed by a duck curry. We shared...

Restaurant indien excellent. Serveur très gentil. Bon rapport qualité prix

The food was fine when we eventually got it, the waiter seemed to hurry is, and thought we had finished after our starter. Probably wouldn't recommend due to the service. Oh and the waiter looked over to see if I gave a tip which I...

Food was decent; however, we got a snarky vibe from one member of waitstaff, felt very condescended to, for no good reason. Both fawning and condescending. Pressured to order more than we wanted. Black flecks of something in our water bottle, not great. Maybe locals get less snarky service? (It felt like we were the butt of some inside joke.) We were dressed decently and were friendly so I’m not sure what the snark was about. Most disappointing service we’ve had in Scotland. Never experienced anything quite like it.
