Pick up was good, except poor server was on a knee scooter, and someone behind register who didn't greet. Potstickers, pepper chicken wings, spicy chicken broccoli lunch combo and hot and sour soup.

The best Chinese spot on this side of the hill! If you live…read morein Aptos or anywhere in Santa Cruz County, you need to check out Four Streams Kitchen. I've been looking for a solid go-to Chinese takeout spot for a while, and this place absolutely knocks it out of the park. Do yourself a favor and order the Szechuan Boiled Fish (Sichuan Shui Zhu Yu). It is insanely flavorful, perfectly spicy, and easily one of the most legit, authentic Chinese dishes I've had in the area. If you prefer the classic American-Chinese comfort staples, those hit the spot too. The Kung Pao has the perfect balance, the potstickers taste completely house-made, and my family is obsessed with their chow mein.  The ingredients are always fresh (especially the veggies and seafood, try the fried prawns!), and the staff is incredibly kind and accommodating. Great portions, amazing value (especially the lunch combos).

I would give this 3 1/2 stars. It was the first time ordering last night through DoorDash. First, I…read morewill say that in the Aptos area this is far better than anything in this town, and way better than Panda Inn. I probably should have just picked up the order because $80 for Chinese food for two people is a bit steep and honestly ridiculous. The first negative thing is the fact that we ordered pork fried rice and ended up getting the fried rice but with chicken instead so OK, edible, but there is something about pork fried rice that I really like so that was disappointing. Also ordered their vegetable green bean with garlic sauce dish, and the green beans were cooked nicely although a side order of green beans for $16? Yes, I made the decision to order simply because I wanted a veggie with the rest of the meal. I ordered a chicken breast dish that was coated in some sort of a Panko-ish crunch. That was good although I wasn't expecting it to be fried. When you're hungry, you just eat it anyway... Truth. also had the potstickers which were typical nothing special, although they did serve it with some sort of a hot pepper sauce, which was good although the seeds in it were quite tough. They also pack a little container of what looked like white vinegar weird not at all like what you would normally have. We will probably try again as we explore the menu, but I will definitely pick up next time. Oh and finally with an order that clearly served two people they throw in one fortune cookie. How cheap is that? Jury is still majorly out on this place, but just wanted to share for now.

Great little yummy Chinese spot in the middle of the Seascape Village. We love getting it because…read moreit's easy to have veggie and meat options for all food preferences. The beef and broccoli is one of my favorites; the garlic string beans are also a family hit. Not excessively oily or salty on any of the options. It's not the best Chinese food I've ever eaten, but it's above average and the staff and owners are so sweet.

**Overall: 3.5 stars**…read more We ordered 3 dishes, and overall, we enjoyed them all, though the string beans were a little too salty. When eaten with rice, it was fine. The dishes we ordered were packed to the brim, and we are talking SO packed that the bag had sauce at the bottom that it made a mess of the boxes, sauce packets and fortune cookies (though YAY for getting fortune cookies). The fried rice was the surprising hit of the 3 dishes we ordered because it wasn't greasy and had the right balance of flavor. The chicken chow fun had noodles clumped together and a little bit of veggies, but somehow it tasted like it was missing something. I had to reach for hot sauce, which I rarely do since I don't like spicy foods! When ordering online, there was a comment section where I asked for utensils, but alas -- there were no utensils to be found. Other positives: - The people inside were friendly during pickup, and there were several customers inside already, so it was nice to see they were on top of customer service. - The restaurant is located in the adorable Seascape Village so you can walk around or have a drink before/after. So fun! - Easy parking because there's a large lot. **One thing to note when ordering To-Go** They had an AUTOMATIC 10% tip added to the order, so be aware of that before submitting your order in case you didn't want to tip or tip that amount. I was surprised to see that added to my bill without my knowledge.

this review is two years in the making I have been meaning to review Ming's ever since we…read morediscovered them two years ago. We were staying in Aptos for a family reunion and after extending our trip, my husband and I were looking for a good Chinese restaurant. There were many reviews that were mixed and after I read the review reviews for Ming's,I decided that we should try it. I didn't feel like getting ready so we parked in the parking lot and my husband went to go pick up the order. When he came back, I couldn't believe how much food there was and how little we spent. We are from San Jose but every time we get a craving for Chinese food, we literally want to drive up the hill! The reason I'm finally writing this review is because I wanted to make sure they were still open and went onto Yelp to check the hours and decided I should write the review so everyone knows how delicious it is. We've had everything from the fried wontons to chicken salad, barbecued pork, fried rice, beef, and broccoli, lemon, chicken, sweet-and-sour pork and chicken chow mein. We are coming back to the Santa Cruz area tomorrow and you can bet we will be enjoying Ming's!

Despite repeatedly giving them the benefit of the doubt, I find myself consistently let down. My biggest frustration is with their pickup and takeout process. Every single time I call ahead, I'm given an estimated wait time, yet no matter when I arrive, whether it's on time, a little late, or even deliberately late to compensate, my order hasn't been touched. EVERY TIME. It makes me wonder if they intentionally delay orders out of concern that customers won't show up? To make matters worse, this doesn't appear to be an isolated issue. On most visits, I find myself in the company of other customers who called ahead and are facing the exact same problem . . . their orders haven't been started either.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ After many unsuccessful tries, I'm done.

The biggest change has been the chow main, which is very dry and more like spaghetti. And you don't get as much food as you used to.
