This place has awesome food. Always prepared to order. Very friendly staff. One of the best Chinese food places in town.

There are treasures within this unassuming building on the corner of Sweet Home and Sheridan. Most of the negative reviews here seem to be for the AmeriChinese classics -- order what you want -- and the glowing reviews all seem to be for the harder to find dishes. I am in the latter camp. The collagen they extract for their noodle soups make for an exquisite broth that absolutely sets up overnight in the fridge. Their lamb dishes are also wonderful, albeit perhaps impossible to order on their website. Go in with a group and try some specials. They are, indeed, special.

Ordered take out for the first time. Was quoted ready in 30. Got there in 40. The restaurant needs a serious scrubbing…. Specified online that I’d pay in store with card and was told a price. Employee was confused when I get there. They game my food to someone else. Says it will be ready in 10. Go to pay while I wait and price is HIGHER than what quoted online and told it’s because I’m paying with card…. It says no where online the price will be higher. I went back and checked in my confirmation. Get food home and it’s maybe a 5 minute drive…. Rice was dry and under cooked…. General tsos was dry and breading mush…. Wontons in soup were dried out over cooked and tasted old…. Kung po chicken was slopped quickly in sauce and chicken dry and old…. NEVER again.

It's tasty with generous portion sizes. The location isn't the easiest to access and exit but it is what it is. Recommended for quality nums.

Family Fact

We just ordered take out. The food was not even edible. Sweet and sour chicken was hard as a rock. General tso chicken was mushy. Lo mein had an awful taste to it. I called and asked if I brought all the food back if I could please have a refund that we would not be eating the food. I was called a liar and was told the food was good and they do not issue refunds. Threw out over $50 worth of food.

One of a kind, with the most amazing, freshly prepared dishes.
While the exterior might be a bit... Rustic (also rusty), I assure you GinGins is the real deal. Personally, I love all their ox tail dishes, but they also make an eggplant and udon dish that is utterly irresistible.
This place calls us back like a siren and is run by some lovely folks.
This is a one of a kind dining experience you do not want to miss.
So do not be put off by the modest facade, this is a diamond in the rough.

The most wonderful and delicious Buffalo Asian food experience. Unlike almost any other restaurant, I get the same thing every time I go. House special chicken chop with rice. I think the chrysanthemum tea is also fantastic.

Well typically i under 4 orders of fried dumpling everytime quiet often this time i order they give them to me steamed i live in nt so its about a 25 minute drive one way to get here but its worth it i call them to tell them about the mistake hoping they would just say ok well ill give you a free one next time for the mistake no instead she played stupid and kept insisting i said steamed when she repeated fried back to me 3 times when i phone ordered what would it have costed you to make a customer happy a couple bucks very dissapointed wont be back for a very long time an suggest everyone to check there orders begore leaving seeing as i spend 60 bucks for dumplings and egg rolls everytime for years multiple times a month i shouldve been offered something instead she acts stupid and trys to blame me you know me and my order i hope you see this and feel ashamed shame on your for not taking care of a very good customer of yours ive brought you many many new customers man im so dissapointed

This is our new favorite! The owner makes everything fresh to order. She was sweet, and it was great talking to her about the dishes she recommended. Best Lomein and twice cooked pork we've ever had!

Ordered take out. It was the worst Chinese food I have ever had. We ordered egg rolls - not good, pork fried rice - not edible, shrimp with lobster sauce - something spicy in it, and crab Rangoon, not edible. Do not get food from this place, it is horrible.
