    A styrofoam takeaway tray that melted due to how hot the food was.

    I love Mings. It's one of my favorite restaurants and it was the first local restaurant I was introduced to when I first moved to the Tyler area. And as much as I appreciate my food being hot, can yall let it cool for a moment before you pack it, or invest in stronger styrofoam containers? Again, love this restaurant!

    Order at the counter. Everything is cooked fresh

    We had the vegetable fried rice, spring rolls, chicken, teriyaki, chicken, wings, fried and crab Rangoon. The food was yummy. Not the best we've ever had not the worst. The service was good actually fantastic They do have lots of indoor seating, comfortable booths, and a couple tables. The portions are huge and we could not eat half of what we ordered. Great and comfortable atmosphere and again FRIENDLY SERVICE now!

    Conveniently located next to the Holiday Inn I was staying at. I ordered online through the Yelp app. Paid with my apple wallet account. Broccoli shrimp with lo mein. Delicious and very satisfying. Very fair portions.

    Message I received from an employee
    Lorraine P.

    I've updated to 1 star since an employee decided to private message me a very rude and poorly written message. (See images) I'm not sure who the owner is, but they need to claim this business on Yelp, and have a talk with their employees about customer relations.

    Egg drop soup and crunchy things (I don't know what they are called)

    We always enjoy great food whenever we are in the area, and we like to stop by Ming's for its outstanding Chinese cuisine.

    Went here with my sister after several friends recommended the place. What can I say that won't…read moresound horribly negative? Not much. Our waiter was horrendous. He sat us, barely uttering a guttural word, brought our drink order and left again for another 10 minutes. I was literally getting out of my seat to get another server when he showed up around the corner. Using the same energy, he took our food order. No recommendations, and no conversation. He brought our food and never returned. Never came back to ask us how everything was, to refill drinks, NOTHING. It was literally like he left the building. Another waiter felt sorry for us and brought us several items, to go boxes and our bill. We tipped HIM and thanked him for actually seeing us. The food: Ka-po noodles were fabulous. The pork dumplings were so bad, it was ridiculous. "Scallion and pork pan fried dumplings". No scallions, no spices and the sausage was a greasy ball of breakfast sausage. We could not eat them. Really disappointing. Unfortunate experience, and we will not return.

    We were very please with everything from waitstaff to the chefs. Everything is fresh and very…read morepresentable. The chicken eggrolls were very good as well as the Chicken and Shrimp Noodles. The flavor can't be beat. Waitstaff ( maybe the manager) was super attentive. It is nice to have a bright environment for visual access and the decor was spot on especially the unique lighting and the case of art. Give it a try. They cook to order which is a bonus.
