It has been a while since my partner & I visited this restaurant. The staff are friendly & efficient. We got a table for two at the back of the restaurant, which was quiet, though we were early (17:30). We took a bottle of wine (corkage is cheap) & had the Peking Duck w\ Noodles & the Salt & Pepper Lobster, both of which were ample portions & tasty 😋. We will be back.

Amazing food great to come with a group order different dishes load up the lazy Susan and dig in. The duck was incredible the flavour and texture is the best in Adelaide. Can't wait to return.
Amazing place....the roasted duck the best dish...the duck perfectly cooked and blended with the correct amount of spices and also the spring rolls are amazing... recommended!!
A local/family friendly resturant with great service. Meals were large & well the priced. Our meals came out super quick & we were well looked after by staff.
Hands down the best crispy beef in Adelaide. Worth coming just for that. The place is otherwise your typical neighbourhood Chinese restaurant. it's busy every night of the week and full of Chinese people so you know it's good.
Definitely recommend to those on that side of town
This is the very best in service and value in Chinese Cuisine, my favorite for 20 years now and remains the top of my list. The food is so delicious you want another serve, outstanding in presentation and quality and freshness !!!
Amazing. Best Chinese take away I have found our side of the city. Quick and friendly service. Will definitely visit Ginling again. ☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺
Solid all round here, consistently serves up a high standard of food. We love Chinese and Ginling is now our go to place if we get the craving.
Food: outstanding! We have now had several dishes and can hardly fault any. Peking Duck and Salt and Pepper squid are the standouts! Serving sizes are large and prices reasonable. Eating in seems to give better taste and value for money.
Service: friendly staff and all work together and do the job well and very quickly. Restaurant was almost full and they had plenty of staff on to cope.
Decor is certainly not why people come to the venue. This isn't a big factor for me but if you're expecting a pretty little restaurant with fresh paint or a old traditional Chinese feel than Ginling will disappoint.
Food is consistently flavorsome and tasty. Our main complaint for the night was that we didn't get given prawn crackers to start like the other tables, despite being regulars. If staff were more attentive, would have picked this up. Overall, a good feed and value for money.
I saw other reviewers describe this as reliable Chinese food, and I think that is an apt description. We popped in here for dinner and ordered the kang kung sambal (belacan), sizzling fish with ginger and stewed eggplant with pork mince.
The kang kung was a flavourful dish with the kang kung slightly overcooked, which is actually how I like it. I would rate this a 3.5.
The fish with ginger was a little light on the flavour side but went well with the kang kung and was quite a good dish and rated a 3.5.
The stewed eggplant was a little sweeter than I would have expected so I liked this dish less. It rated a 3.
Portion sizes were large and prices were reasonable. Staff were all friendly and helpful, more so than most Chinese restaurants I have been to.
Overall, quite a nice dining experience.
Nice family owned traditional Chinese restaurant. Lots of history, been around for a long time and does a great job. They do lots of takeaway and people come from all over Adelaide for it. Restaurant experience is nice, friendly staff and authentic. Plenty of food options and decent wine list. Definitely recommended!
As a group of friends we gave been attending Ginling for years. We have always found the food delicious and filling. We end up taking home our left overs. Staff are friendly and attentive and the restuarant is always filled with satisfied customers. Don't waste any time booking a night out.
The Chow mien and the Beef fillet steak Cantonese never fails. The fried rice wasn't that great! A bit undercook!
The staff were SO lovely. The best service I've had in a long time. The food was delicious too. Very fresh. We will definitely return.
Really nice suburban Chinese restaurant. Dishes were tasty and very good serving sizes, and were reasonably priced. The staff were also very friendly.
Consistently very good over many years. Can't think of a bad meal we've had from here. Eat in and try the things on the alternative menu.
