I placed a large takeout order for a class event of 30 people and unfortunately the experience was…read morevery disappointing. The sesame balls arrived completely burnt on the outside. The char siu bao had very little filling, mostly just stringy onion with barely any pork. The egg rolls were small and tasted off. The potstickers had an unpleasant smell. The vegetable buns went untouched by the whole group. I spent close to $100 and had high hopes for this order. I gave the restaurant advance notice about the size of the order and dietary restrictions, so I was surprised by the quality. I have photos of the items if needed. I want to be fair maybe this was an off day. But for a large order placed in advance, I expected more care and consistency. I would not order from here again for a group event.

I came here on a Saturday night dinner with my bestie. We came in and were seated immediately. Our…read morewaiter informed us to scan the qr code to view the menu + order. The space is very open, and you can watch the person hand wrapping the dumplings right outside their kitchen. We ordered soup dumplings, pan fried buns/soup dumplings, dan dan noodles, scallion ginger noodles, garlic green beans and chili wontons. All the dumplings and buns were done really well - seasoned great, perfect amount of soup in the right dumplings. The chili wontons were something new; it was dressed with a peanut sauce, which paired perfectly with the chili oil. Both noodle dishes were good, but not spectacular. The dan dan noodles were a bit soft in texture, and I enjoyed the peanut sauce in that again. The scallion ginger noodles had a bit more chew to them but they were still very good. The garlic string beans were a classic, no notes there. Very much a no-frills spot with good food, 10/10 would return!

We had most of the staples and everyone liked the food, from the grandparents on down to the grandkids. I found the food to be quite authentic and tasty, so Ming's Tasty gets five Yelp stars from me. We ate a variety of different items including steamed BBQ pork buns, pan-fried turnip cake, steamed bean curd skin rolls, chicken feet with Peking sauce, pork ribs in black bean sauce, beef omasum with ginger and scallions, sticky rice with minced pork in lotus leaf, deep-fried taro "turnovers," pork and shrimp dumplings (siu mai), steamed shrimp dumplings (har gow), Chiu Chow dumplings (fun guo), BBQ pork rice noodle rolls, shrimp rice noodle rolls, Chinese broccoli with oyster sauce, and more. Yum. Ming's Tasty is located in the heart of Oakland's Chinatown and opened in 2018.

We got the tofu, the orange chicken, chow mein, kung pao chicken, broccoli beef, garlic fried rice, and Peking duck. My top call outs would be the orange chicken and the Peking duck. They were absolutely delicious and everyone loved it. I wasn't a big fan of the garlic fried rice. I felt it was kind of bland and needed more flavor.

One of our friends have dined there many times and suggested the whole roasted duck, their size medium special rice noodle and we ordered beef and green beans with 2 orders of rice. Food was good and portions as generous. The duck was our favorite dish, a tad on the blander side but very crispy skin. The noodle dish was very different from anything we've tried. At first the rice noodles looked like gelatinous globs. It came with slivers of meat and vegetables. When mixed with some of the yellow mustard, it was quite good but we didn't use that much of the mustard. The beef and green bean dish was OK, nothing special. Staff was helpful and checked on us a couple of times.

Turned out they were headed my way and 30 minutes later, we met up and ended up having dinner here. Synchronicity- Check! It was a perfect Spring day and since we had the dog with us, we were seated outside and in the sun. We started with a white wine and ordered shrimp toast, scallion noodles that came with a fried egg, shishito peppers, chili pork and garlic dumplings and an assortment of dumplings- all of it I cannot even name. All I'm sure of that as the dishes were coming out one by one, they were beautifully presented, and every portion that I had for myself was amazing. And this wasn't even the alcohol talking-- it was pure love of the flavor that I was experiencing in my mouth. Not only were we sitting in the setting sun's warmth and glow, but we were having catch-up conversation and enjoying our meal. It was just perfect. Now the food. First was the shishito peppers. Flavor-10/10. Scallion noodles: 10/10. Shrimp toast-- please don't judge me, but the first thing I was thinking of WTF is a shrimp toast? But I was open to everything. That happened to be one of my most favorite items of this meal. It was crispy bread with flattened shrimp inside and there was a spicy mayo dip on the side and oh my God-- that was just bomb city! Then came with the XLB combo, soup dumplings and my favorite one was the tom yum. They were all soup dumplings and each one was a delectable perfect on its own and no side dishes needed. Food- Amazeballs. Ambience- hello, 4th St Berkeley vibe. Service- friendly and helpful! Returning? Goddamn right I am!!!

We waited about 15 minutes after putting our names on the waitlist, and no one greeted or seated us even though the waitress saw us. Another party even had to flag down a waitress, which was surprising since there were only a 3 tables occupied but 2 servers on the floor. We were eventually seated, though. As for the food, the seared bao wasn't fully pan-fried and tasted pretty plain. The wagyu XLB seemed freshly made, but the flavor could definitely be improved. My favorites ended up being the string beans and the sweet and spicy wings, which aren't even their main focus. The wings were crispy on the outside and still juicy inside, definitely the highlight of the meal. The restaurant is located at a nice area but the food needed to be worked on.
