That little gem that every town has. Best food, best service, and the quantity is a lot. It's a small establishment only two people work there to prepare your food so be ready to wait a little bit, but it's all worth it. Also very cheap prices way worth what you pay for. This is the only place I know that is open on Thanksgiving and Christmas day. read more

Ming House Express Restaurant - I had the sweet n sour chicken. Now I did add my own egg when I got home. - Chinese Near Me - Augusta, Georgia

My regular Chinese spot was closed for vacation (good for them, bad for me) so I tried out this place for dinner. I looked at their menu beforehand so I had a good idea what to order. I thought it was a good sign there were a couple of people in the drive thru line. I ordered the steak hibachi (with vegetables and fried rice) and crab Rangoon. It took a bit of time in the drive thru, and when it came my turn to pay, I then had to pull up and wait because they said it would take some time. No problem. Almost 15 minutes later, my food was finally ready. I got out of my car (defeating the purpose of drive thru I guess) to get it. It was surprisingly heavy! When I got home, I opened the box. The vegetables were not at all what I was expecting for hibachi. Majority cabbage, carrots, corn, and a few pieces of broccoli. A TON of rice. The steak looked over cooked, and... it was. Tough and chewy. I only ate the broccoli if the vegetables. The rice was bland too. Disappointing overall. I tried the crab Rangoon hoping it would be the saving grace. Sadly, no. They were chewy and the sweet and sour was runny. I probably will not return to the place... hopefully my regular spot will never close again. Haha read more

Ming House Express Restaurant - Steak hibachi - Chinese Near Me - Augusta, Georgia

If you blink you'll miss this little hidden spot in the mix of all the businesses on Washington road. I passed by one day and made note to stop by the next time I passed through since I enjoy trying out local small businesses. The drive through is very convenient since most other places like this only offer counter service. It does say express but they still cool your food to order and will take 5-10 minutes and I ordered just 1 plate. I ordered the hibachi chicken meal which at plane sight does not look that appetizing but the flavor and juiciness of the chicken was all there. I would have preferred it have some kind of sauce on the side but maybe I need to get the teriyaki chicken next time. The portions were huge, tons of chicken and rice with a few broccoli pieces to make you feel semi-healthy as you stuff your face. There is a decent list of options on the menu as well so there is likely something for everyone if asian-style food is what everyone is craving. If you don't feel like waiting to make it all the way home to eat and need to eat some quickly, they have a few parking spots available to chow down and save the rest for a whole other meal. read more

I've been eating here my entire life. Great service and great food I would be so hurt if they closed on me

Where do I start? Drive through Asian food that tastes like its home cooked, great customer service, REASONABLY priced and the deliciousness is nothing less than heaven. I LOVE THIS PLACE read more

Absolute worth coming here. I had no idea what their menu look like so I'm glad I had a chance to get to look at it and I was quite surprised about the prices honestly. I intend on getting a lunch combination but I want of getting vegetable fried rice instead. When I opened up that container I got my money's worth of that fried rice. I honestly come by this place going to and from Washington Road and I'm glad I stopped by. If you haven't try this place out I recommend you do. You won't be disappointed but be prepared to spend some money. read more

Ming House Express Restaurant - Vegetable fried rice - Chinese Near Me - Augusta, Georgia

Had been going my entire life and the place obviously has new ownership-- I am sad to say I will never be back. My go to has always been the ham lo mein. Previously, it was clear that the noodles were fried and just well made with tons of flavor. Now, the noodles taste like they came out of a bag, mushy, and more like over cooked spaghetti noodles with no flavor at all. The combos used to come with ham fried rice, chicken wings, and then the combo you ordered. Now they come with basically white rice again-- with no flavor. If you scroll down you'll see a previous review from me about four years ago... very disappointed with the changes and really just sad that they weren't successful in keeping the heart of Ming House. read more

I got the 6 piece wing and it was good. HOWEVER, they need to figure out how to keep the line flowing. It's a small building and I get it it's drive-thru, but I waited one hour just to get six wings and that's no joke. read more

I have been a customer for years and consistently good. The menu has changed which was my first alert. The prior owner never had below a 99 health rating and almost always it was a 100 - this new ownership sits at a 96. When I got home, it's more like hibachi then Chinese and very bland. Very disappointed. Wish the prior owner could give lessons in cooking. Wait was much longer than usual also. Hope they can make some tweaks but do not recommend at this time. read more

I've been going to ming house since I was in high school, so for over 20+ years. Whenever I fly into town 1-2x/year, it's one of my 'must have' stops. Well.... No more! I didn't realize they were under new ownership but the size of the wings said it all. I ordered 50 wings and I was appalled at the wings when I opened them. It's sad to say but they lost my business and any future recommendations. read more

under new management and awful! I repeat AWFUL! We ordered Beef lo Mein, beef fried rice and 6 cream cheese wontons. The lo Mein noodles are NOT the ones I'm use too and slimy and down right disgusting. The prices have went up and the food has gone down. The wontons are usually covered in sugar and these we got were just fried and that's it. We waited 20 minutes to get this and didn't know the place had new ownership. Its sad because this was our fav place. read more

Always, always, I'm on the hunt for a Chinese place. Because, you really need that one Chinese place that you can call your own. That is what brought me to Ming House yesterday afternoon after a long, well, afternoon. Over the course of my time here in Augusta I have driven by this little takeout place and wondered what it was like. Now I will wonder no more! There is a drive through, which is a plus, and the staff were friendly, another plus. The prices are pretty fare, especially after seeing the amount of food you get. I tried the chicken lo mein and the egg drop soup (you know, the standard fare for cChinese restaurants) and both were tasty. I think I might try the fried rice next time I go (did you catch that? "the next time I go"? ) read more

Great people, great food. I was not happy that online it said they were open 30 mins earlier so I sat in the parking lot like a stalker. They were very friendly but I ordered based on thr online menu. The meal was $4 more than priced. Always ask upfront. #lunchatdinnerprices. Also I didnt get my sweet and sour sauce i just paid dearly for. I need to stop and check. Great place just not my best visit. read more

This was our favorite Chinese restaurant in our area for years. Recently it closed and the sign said for "remodeling" Once it reopened we were so excited to eat there but we found out that the restaurant was sold. The previous owner retired. The food was not the same and not good at all. we will never go back again. Very sad. read more

Excellent food wonderful people always friendly and asking what you need. Food is fresh and tasty and always a pleasure to come here

Drive thru only. Quick and convenient. Food is always fresh and hot. Great almond chicken.

Sorry this is not a 4.5/5...as suggested by other reviews. Food: 3-3.5/5 ... at best..4/5 Quantity: 5/5- you will have leftovers and good to feed family/#s game. Sesame chicken lunch combo$7 House special low mein $8 General Tso chicken $9 Total: $26 Very good quantity as it is fulling but not very tasty. They were very friendly and nice people. It is definitely good if you're a quantity over quality kind of foodie. Not something I'd go out of my way for. Btw its a drive through chinese food restaurant- first time I've been to one. Quality matches a drive through. read more

I had 2 small and I do mean small fork fills and my stomachs hurts. This rice is from a regular grocery store and they added lettuce, mushroom, tiny shrimp from the freezer at Walmart, diced ham and diced turkey.l and cucumbers. I don't know what the heck it's called bug I ordered house fried rice. It looks just like it tastes. A hot mess! read more

This is my favorite Chinese spot. I've been coming here since I was a kid with my dad. It's drive thru or walk up only, but it is sooooo worth it.

I am a sucker for fast Chinese food. The first time I pulled up, I got out of the car to look around and found that it only a drive-through! Now that's what I call "express." I hit this place up when I find myself coming back from Target or Best Buy and need an eggroll/crab rangoon fix. And twice a month, I'll have a terrible hankering for lo mein or soup so I make it out here rain or shine. I feel like I'm in "Dude, Where's My Car?" when I pull up and the snarky voice says, "Hello, what do you want?" Sometimes, it's an older guy, sometimes it's a younger college student age fellow and sometimes it's a slap happy man that is undeniably my favorite window guy. I don't have a favorite for the moment, but their crab rangoons are mouth watering good. My only problem with this place is that they don't have enough spicy dishes. They have General Tso chicken and Mongolian Beef but that's not really spicy so rooster sauce and garlic sauce is definitely necessary after a visit from this place. I seriously appreciate how quickly food comes out though and when I'm in a hurry, they always come through. 1/2014 read more

Wonderful little place for takeout. We loved the sweet and sour chicken and beef lo mein. Staff were very friendly and food was done perfectly and quickly! Also the chicken wings are to die for. Next time we're getting an extra order! read more

This is down and dirty, quick and easy, huge portions of delicious Chinese Food. This is a family-owned restaurant that rarely if ever employs outside their family. Just a drive through window, no seating, no delivery, no frills. Just really really good food. They have easily the best chicken fried rice in the city of Augusta. Sometimes I just get a huge boxed order of it and eat on it for days. The Chicken and Broccoli is awesome, and they have really good sweet & sour chicken as well. Chicken wings aren't messed with or fancied up, just fried and crispy and a little greasy in a good way. There is nothing I complain about at this place. read more

Very charming young gentleman served me tonight at the window. He even offerred me his water as he thought i was unhappy about not getting a drink in the evening. Had sweet and sour pork this evening. The pork was cooked longer today and the batter was just crispy which i love. Great place as always. Service excellent. Recommended. read more

The Best Chinese Food in Augusta! We travel over 10 miles to get our meal. Been a customer for over 10 years and he always has a Food Grade of 100%. Best Egg Rolls and Wings. Sesame Chicken, moo goo gai pan, hot and sour soup....too yummy. Not loaded with msg, so no after effects. read more

My boyfriend really likes this place, I think it is subpar hence the 3 stars. He always gets orange chicken and really likes them. I got the lo mein and a spring roll. Watch out - their spring rolls contain meat which was odd to me and should have been better advertised. The lo mein was alright. read more

Poor service, the worker yelled at me when I asked for sauce on the side, and said that's extra! NOT COMING BACK HERE ...horrible customer service and food tastes microwaved read more

Best chicken wings I use to get when I was younger bought boxes to take back when I went back to va

I'm really picky about my Chinese food, and I'll admit, this place looked like it was going to let me down. It's a small little box on the side of Washington road, surrounded by tiny strip malls and auto body places. But don't let it's looks fool you. This food is awesome! I usually test places out by ordering one of my old favorites, shrimp in lobster sauce. They did not disappoint! Lots of shrimp, great flavor and texture. The basic fried rice has ham in it, which struck me as odd, but very tasty. I also got two wings with my order. I wish I had bought more. Easily the tastiest, simplest wings I've ever had. Eggrolls are basic and tasty, and the cream cheese wontons.... Well, I was surprised to see them coated in sugar and lacking crabmeat! But it was a very pleasant surprise, as they were a sweet, delicious treat for after an awesome meal! We will absolutely be back!! read more
