Born and raised local. I’ve been looking for a new favorite Chinese food place. Our old favorite changed hands and recipes. No longer a favorite.

So in my search for some new and good I Found some reviews about this place and decided to try it.

Was impressed. Very happy with the sizzling rice soup, tomato broth. Very happy with the pepper chicken wings as well. My new favorite Chinese in town.

We came in with a party of 9 family members. Two of our family arrived literally 3 minutes later. We all placed our orders, and when the last two arrived and tried to order, the cashier refused because she was prioritizing phone/to-go orders due to a rush.

Eventually, they were allowed to order, along with another large table. That table received their food, but our two family members were still waiting. Over an hour later, everyone at our table was completely done eating, and they still had no food.

When we asked about it, we were told their order was never worked on. Instead of apologizing, the older lady working there blamed them for arriving 3 minutes late, which is completely unacceptable. The customer service was rude and dismissive.

On top of that, the restaurant was very cold, and when the food came out, it was cold as well. My dad and I ordered broccoli beef, and the beef was still raw with blood, which is a serious health concern.

Between the rude service, forgotten orders, lack of accountability, cold food, and raw meat, this was a terrible experience. We will not be returning.

The worst food in town! The Hunan beef is hard as a rock. Like chewing leather. The chicken chow mein is bland and the fried rice is like they mixed it in a separate bowl after everything was made. DO NOT EAT HERE!

This place is usually empty when i go. The food was too salty the last two times. But the worst part is the rude customer service! Ive seen other comments saying the owner is racist and i could definitely agree. When my loved ones and I go we already know she is not friendly but try to make the most of it but were not going back - this last time was too obvious she didnt want us there. No smile, no welcome, took forever to get out order, that mean look just glaring from afar. Her prices are also increasing and they are already expensive with small portions- the previous owners were amazing- these owners look like they hate their job and customers.

The kids loved the chow fun, fish, and the wor wonton soup was like a cozy blanket in a bowl. Every dish came out hot, fresh, and full of that “mmm!” moment that makes a family meal feel extra special.

The food used to be good and a good deal but now its terrible. I could taste that the chicken was rotten. Spit it out and the dogs wouldn't even eat it. The orange chicken was soggy on the outside and stringy dry on the inside, yuck. The rotten chicken was in the noodles. Plus there was no one in the restaurant for lunch , yet the counter gal had a snappy, crazy attitude and claimed she was to busy to take the food next store. Used to love em- now I will never go again. Better off going to Panda Express.

Delivery from Ming's is always a hit. Classic Chinese American dishes done right! Love being able to order the combination plates so I can try a little bit of a few dishes.

Everything was delicious.
We were visiting the area and stopped for lunch based on a recommendation.

We had their lunch special.
Very much enjoyed the tofu and vegetables. Hubby loved the sweet and sour chicken too.

(Forgot to take pics but the food was beautiful)

I will never return to this place. The person in charge is very racist. The last time I went there were 5 of us and a baby, she wanted to sit us at a table that is for 4 when there was another table for 6 empty, there were no customers, we were the only ones and she got upset because we didn't want to sit at the one she said. We waited like 10 minutes and she never went to take the order but she did take one from a person who came to take out and even gave him his food and we were still waiting and we left. The owners used to be friendlier and these ones obviously don't want to dirty their tables.
