Place was recommended to me by a family member but was not impressed after visit. Roast duck was bland and skin was gummy. Ordered egg rolls for appetizer but these came out almost 10 minutes after main course was served. The ambience of the place is absolutely barebones and right out of the 50's...

Hidden little gem on the backside of Colonial. With really authentic flavors and selections. Enjoyed every bite!! Serving were well portioned and appetizers came out pretty quickly. There are choices for all types of Chinese food lovers but it all seemed interesting and tasty.

This Chinese restaurant located in Mills Avenue and Colonial Drive area or Mills50 Orlando, parking is little bit problem over here The restaurant offers classic delicious dim sum, selections rolling by carts and a la carte menu with a wide variety of other Chinese dishes at very affordable price! I love to order from a la carte menu, especially Beef Chow Fun and stir-fried snow peas tips every time we come. All dim sum is delicious, chicken feet with peanut jalapeño juicy and spicy, crispy shrimp balls, eggplant, egg tarts and Oolong Tea are my favorites

Yikes it has really gone downhill. Cold Dim Sum on carts. Smaller selection. Tea smelled like bleach. No line to be seated on a Saturday at noon should have been a clue. Very disappointing.

Very tasty, only problem is they need bamboo chopsticks. The ones they give you are smooth and slippery, and very hard to eat with. Can't get a good grip on the food.

After our cruise we were craving for some Chinese food! And Ming’s bistro did not disappoint. Please dont mind the simple interior, it’s the food we came for! Authentic dim sum flavors. But the items are hit or miss. We loved the siu mai, beef tribe, chicken feet and har gao. They were spot on!! But the potstickers dumplings and fried rettich cake were bit disappointing. They do serve it the old way, in a heated push cart! which is super fun to experience as not many places serve dim sum like this anymore. Come early or be prepared to que up

A fantastic place for authentic dim sum! I did takeaway but while I was waiting for my food, my mouth was watering at all the carts of food being pushed past me. The siu mai at Ming's is absolutely insane, I've never had such delicious and hefty siu mai...this includes dim sum places that I've been to in LA, New York, and Taiwan! The fried shrimp balls were amazing as well, still crunchy when I got home 30 minutes later. I visited on a Saturday a little after noon and they were completely full on tables but my takeaway order took only about 20minutes. Service with the cashiers was good and the prices were very good. We loved everything except the ribs, not my partner or I's preferred flavor or texture. Need to eat in the restaurant next time for sure!

This is my first time going to dim sum! I have always wanted to try it and it's so satisfying seeing them come with all your dishes on the cart and seeing everyone else's! The staff here were kind but the decor was lacking a bit. I ordered Hot Tea to start and it was good. They gave us cute little cups and a big teapot. We got the Spicy Chicken Feet which I was scared to try but honestly it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Wasn't spicy at all though. The Chive Dumplings were amazing, very flavorful and good dumpling texture. I've always wanted to try Rice Rolls and we got the Beef paste ones. These were so good! The sweet soy sauce they put on top goes perfectly with them. Lastly we got Pork Dumplings, wow these were stuffed with meat! The dumpling wrappers they use here are so good and chewy! The pork wasn't ground up so it surprised me but it was still good. I'd like to try this place again and try some other dim sum items or some of their entrees.

My favorite go-to for Chinese food near me. Large portions can easily be split into two meals and the food quality is always consistent.

First time checking out this location. The parking was a bit tight since it was a Friday night. It was packed everywhere in the area of the restaurant. Once I made it inside, I just sat at an empty table. One of the employees walked up and asked what we wanted to drink. I ordered hot green tea and they gave me jasmine tea. I really wanted green tea. I even asked if they had it, and she said yes. So, I just sipped on the jasmine. Next, the inside is a bit dull in decor, but some of the table's center pieces spun to share plates in large group settings. I ordered dim sum of course. Before I begin, I have a huge recommendation for the establishment. Please list items accurately within your food. For example, you list a chive dumpling, but instead, it's shrimp and chives. I am allergic to shrimp, so bitting into a chive dumpling then it turning up being a whole shrimp, was shocking. I am not upset, but if I was someone who didn't have slow allergy reactions, I could've had an anaphylaxis reaction. My table ordered 4 things to try out. Beef Rice Paste : The sweet soy goes amazing with this. It was well prepared and had a nice sweet and savory flavor mix. Pan-fried Chive Dumpling: It is not only chives. The outside was nicely crisp and tasty, but the inside did not have chives only. It has a whole shrimp inside of it. I had to spit it out immediately, so I didn't have a bad reaction. Spicy Chicken Feet: It was not spicy at all, and I was surprised. It was actually bland in flavor, like having a old fashion donut compared to an iced donut. Pork Dumplings: Perfectly crisp on the outside and the pork was tender and tasty. I would definitely recommend this one. They give you a lot of meat. I would go back to try some of their other dishes. Just not for dim sum again. The staff during checkout was friendly and helpful. Thank you guys for the experience.

Good food lousy service. I had a hard time understanding the directions of the waiter. And one of them yelled at someone at my table whether it was intentional or not. It made the service look bad.
