The Ginger Man opened in Greenwich in August of 2002 and instantly became one of the area’s most popular restaurants. Known for its warm and inviting atmosphere, the Ginger Man is a favorite among Greenwich locals and neighboring communities. Whether you are looking for a quick burger (maybe the best burger anywhere!), sandwich, or salad with friends or an intimate dinner at a table by the fireplace, The Ginger Man offers you a unique dining experience.

The Ginger Man’s menu accommodates people of all ages with everything from grilled cheese to entrée-sized salads and two to three fish selections daily. The restaurant still uses a real butcher from the New York City marketplace to hand pick its steaks and blend that special mix for its famous burgers.

The Ginger Man features 23 taps, 80+ bottles and a well chosen wine list from small and large Vineyards around the world. The Ginger Man’s burgers and beers were voted “best burger” and “best beer selection.”

The Ginger Man is always busy and very consistent regarding food and service. It has great salads and many options to satisfy almost anyone! It’s a good “go to” option when in town. You won’t be disappointed!

Everything was great. Just be ready for a very loud environment—to the point I couldn’t hear the person next to me speaking.

This place was really cute, and had fantastic food and service. Unfortunately, we were seated in the corner and it seemed like everything echoed from the two parties around us - it was REALLY LOUD. So loud that my mother couldn't hear me talking right next to her. Kindof a bummer but we'll still go back, we'll just ask to be seated in the rear of the restaurant.

My friend and I shared a burger and the pear and blue cheese salad. Both were delicious. The service wasn’t so great. We had to ask for lemon several times. The waiter disappeared for most of the meal. Still I really like TGM!
