I do not write a lot of reviews but, this place is fantastic. Had the beef with broccoli and it did not disappoint. Most places over sauce the food - not here. highly recommended.

The food was solid — exactly what you’d expect from a fancy, full-service spot that probably has cloth napkins and a server. The staff was super friendly and made me feel like a regular, even on my first visit. Takeout was the usual wait time, which I appreciated because hanger is real. A bit too pricey for my wallet’s comfort, and parking was… an adventure. Unfortunately, the prices mean I probably won’t be back, which is a bummer because it’s right by my work, so my lunch breaks almost got dangerously convenient. Prime location!

No no no no NO NO NO NO NO..... NO
The coconut curry rice bowl was horribly misflavored. I think they put some sort of cheese or milk in the coconut curry that gave it a very foul and unplesant flavor. Maybe the milk they served me was experied or something cause it was FUNKY, like dry aged cheese or curdled milk. The pork buns were also okay, I think they misflavored them too everything about it was just overpowering eachother

Bao bun heaven, that’s it, that’s the review. Every single bite was loaded with flavor and texture that just works. I had the pork belly and bulgogi buns along with the Cubano, and each one had its own personality. The pork belly was rich and melt-in-your-mouth good, the bulgogi was sweet and savory in all the right ways, and that Cubano… perfection. The wings? Also a win. Crispy, saucy, and everything you want them to be.
Ming’s is one of those places that makes you instantly happy the moment you dig in. The food feels thoughtful but fun, and the vibe is laid back in the best way. I’m already plotting my next visit for a sando because if it’s anything like the buns, it’s game over.

Obviously youre hungry. You just got done at Black Swan, or just got out of the float tank at Transcend, maybe you live at Armadillo Boulders and you just need a break. Try the buns. Try all the buns. Also the espresso brownie. Its sometimes right there by the checkout. My favorite is the Crispy Chicken but honestly what do I know about anything. Can't go wrong here.

Everything is so fresh! I wish they served both menus at both locations. La cantera and mid town.

This was my rice pudding. I gave 2 stars bc the buns I also ordered were soooo good but letting this out the door is super confusing to me. I had delivered via uber eats. If I was in person I would have just exchanged for a new one. I’m assuming rice shouldn’t be green but I tried it too. It wasn’t good. 😔I would get the buns again but this was a too wild to say nothing.
Atmosphere here was chill and pretty lively. I love the encouragement from the staff throughout whole process while eating here. The food was-spectacular and mouth washing - great fusion between chinese and american in healthy way. LOW CAL AND YUMMY

Changing previous review. They are frequently out of items and don’t tell you til you been waiting for 20 min. They overcharge for toppings, buckle and diming to death. Very very slow!! V
2023- this place. Great Thai!! I’m in love with the Szechuan noodles with spicy tofu.

Steamed buns we're DELICIOUS! I tried the pork belly and bugolgi beef buns and wish I had ordered more! Finished out the experience with a strawberry sando and basque cheesecake for dessert! Everything was delicious and the prices are very reasonable. Overall great experience! Highly recommend!

I loved everything about this place. Pauline and Ivan were both amazing and the food was amazing and the atmosphere was amazing. I would definitely recommend coming here. Portion sizes were great for their value and the food tasted really really, really good.
