Food wasn't that good, there was one table with 3 guests and it took them almost 30 minutes for soup and rice for my takeout. Their phone is consistently out of service and their hours of operation are not correct, sometimes they're open as advertised sometimes they are closed for days at a time.

Came in, got menus, got water, literally 1 other table with customers, waiter left after giving water and never came back to take our order, too busy hanging out in the back with his coworkers. Had to just leave.

Great foodHad the Beef, mixed vegetables in Hunan sauce. A little spicy to be expected. The lunch came with a side of rice, soup and an egg roll.Crab Rangoons were great!My total was 15 dollars so I think it was worth it.Staff was kind and the older gentleman suggested the great dish that I had.I had visited as soon as they opened so my wait-time was a little longer than normal.

The food is poorly cooked and generally worse quality than any average Chinese takeout restaurant, but 50% more expensive. Half the items on the menu aren’t even in stock, and the drinks are so watered down you might as well just be drinking water. Save your money and go literally anywhere else.

Someone sabotaged my page and left a horrible just letting you know it wasn't me. I've been dining at this establishment since 1988 with my parents and back then and still today they have some of the best Chinese food from the presentation to The taste I give them ??up. The owner Tom is a very kind and generous man he comes to the table and greet you. If you like Chinese hot and sour soup you should try the Vietnamese hot and sour soup it's TOP SHELF. THANKS FOR ALWAYS MAKING MY DINING EXPERIENCE VERY PLEASURABLE!!! I look forward to eating here time and time again, thank you Aaron.

The Chinese and Vietnamese foods are delightful and so tasty. I would recommend it to everyone. It is BYOB with no cork fee.

Me Lyng has been our go to Chinese restaurant for years but they have either changed owners or stopped caring. We ordered Pho and it only came with noodles and been sprouts, no additional vegetables. Additionally, I have never had General Tsos Chicken as bad as this. The breading was gumby and did not stick to the chicken. Makes me sad because they were so convenient but I will never patronize this establishment again.

We were staying at the Hampton Inn nearby and found the MeLyng on Google. We absolutely loved this restaurant, it's run by a lovely family and the food was delicious. The best egg roll I've had in years, good portions and fair prices. We live out of town or I would be there weekly trying everything on the menu.
Everything seems a little off on flavor. Not bad, just off. Had takeout only and service was fine, prices are average.

Love this place! I tried over 75-80% of their menu (including both Chinese and Vietnamese selections) and I can honestly say that I've yet to find something that I didn't like. If you are into authentic Asian cuisine, you MUST try Me Lyng.Update for 2022: they still create the most consistent, delicious Asian food in the area. Owner and staff are always friendly and attentive. Go! Nom nom nom.

I absolutely LOVE this place. I have been eating here since I was a young child, and it has never failed me. The food is cooked perfectly and consistently every time and you will not find a more authentic Vietnamese cuisine around for this reasonable of a price/generous serving!Ps. try the dumplings. you will go wild.

The foods presentation was different than the average chinese food restaurant. I got the special egg roll, general tso's, the vietnamese dish Bun Thit Nuong Beef and steamed dumplings. Based on how everything looked I was excited to try it. Unfortunately the special egg roll was stuffed with prodominantly a large amount of ground pork that lacked any distinctive flavor profile, the general tso's was also not flavorful at all, despite my requesting spicy it was not and the Bun Thit Nuong Beef was mediocre as well were the dumplings. I'm not sure if it's because I ordered at 6pm so maybe I got caught in the dinner rush. It was all a bit disappointing.

Not bad, not good.Egg rolls were the highlight.Type of place you try when you’re new in town & looking for a Chinese restaurant… then the next time you want Chinese you’ll try somewhere else.
