It’s our new go to for Chinese. Kids and wife love it and I have not had anything I don’t like. Try the Pear Breadpuddung for dessert

We’ve been going to Ginger & Fork for years, and it’s A FINE WINE 🏆💕❤️ Their food is DIVINE, their staff is TOP-NOTCH, and their service is IMPECCABLE! This is my husband’s favorite spot, and tonight, (on his actual birthday), he wanted to go nowhere else in Houston other than Ginger & Fork. And as much as we disagree as a couple, he understands “forever”, and this place is a forever, people!!! Do yourself a favor and go to Ginger & Fork. Period. Also, order every single thing on the menu. It doesn’t matter what it is, it’ll be phenomenal. Trust me ✨
