Our kids were craving beef chow fun and found this place nearby. Really accommodating and nice staff which helped to adjust the flavoring upon our request for less oil. Loved the pricing and portion sizes which left all of us stuffed! Hard to find anything similar closer towards Oakland where pricing would be double. read more

Service was good but I found the food to be bland. I ordered the Oyster Sauce Beef, not much flavor.

This place never lets me down. The food is consistently delicious and clearly made with quality ingredients. The service is excellent, and it's always busy for a reason. I happily make the 20-minute drive because it's one of the best spots for Chinese food around. Yummy! read more

This is the worst Chinese food that I have tried in my 80 years of life. The calamari was like chewing on a rubber band, Their General Chicken had no flavor. the Deluxe Chow Mein had large doughy noodles and China Panda outshined them for these two dishes. and finally the Mongolian Lamb was without any lamb flavor, it could have been beef. I had asked my wife to take me there for my b'day but was very very disappointed, i dropped $120 for our meal and it wasn't worth $22 ( the cost of our beers) Go to The Great Wall in Lafayette, so much better than better than Ming's (Check # 17721) read more

We have been coming to Ming's for over 15 YEARS!! Dine in or take out the food and the services 5 stars. Ming's always has fresh ingredients and half of our order is always vegetable based dishes. Dishes are not oily and the fried food always has fresh oil. The Salt and Pepper chicken and Hot and Sour soup is my go to. Always busy, so you might have a bit of a wait, but not long! read more

I've been going here for years! I went because my sis in law, her mom, and my niece and nephew along with my brother, my aunt and uncle from Canada had lunch before they left. food hands down incredible. we did have left overs. the staff friendly as always and I like how they remodeled the place! so nice! read more

Flavorless food, brusque service, and unexpected charges. Only good things that we can be said is that the food came out quickly and parking is easy. Like at least one other reviewer, we felt uneasy after eating, possibly due to high MSG levels. Will not be returning. read more

I love the Sesame Chicken (they use white meat) and Vegetable Fried Rice it's my favorite.

Love this place! Nice decor, friendly and efficient service, coupled w very good food. I'm trying this restaurant for the first time , ordered to go to enjoy some Chinese cuisine with my elderly in-laws (without a lot of chewing power!) I called into the restaurant and asked for some recommendations for "soft tasty food" and all recommendations were on point and tasty! My favorites were their * shrimp hot n sour soup and * the fish filet w corn gravy. All dishes are cooked fresh with excellent flavor. Bonus point - generous portions and we had plenty for next day's lunch! read more

Ming's has been my family's go to Chinese restaurant for years!!! The food is always excellent and the service is outstanding.

Our first time and it was:Tasty! The servers and I think the owner were incredibly kind to our son who loved the fortune cookies. We ordered the house special fried rice, sizzling rice soup with shrimp, and beef chow fun, and the steamed fish with bok choy. The soup was so tasty, we all finished it (we usually don't at other places) lol. The fried rice was tasty too. The noodles in the beef chow fun was good but not enough beef. I felt like there were only a couple of pieces swimming in a bunch of noodles. So probably won't get that next time. Bok Choy with steamed fish wasn't bad at all, in fact very good too but fish fillet pieces were smaller than what we're used to but overall tasty! The ambiance was nice when we went for dinner. Felt like I was transported to those Chinese restaurants I grew up going to with the antique Chinese dishes as decor and interior. Will be back! read more

My family and I were looking for a Chinese restaurant to celebrate my father's birthday and came across this resturant from a random Yelp search. They are currently offering take outs only but was kind to let us dine in. They served the food in small to go containers. With the overpriced dishes, I felt cheated of buying 2 star flavored food. We ordered several main entrees and an appetizer. Most of their dishes cost about $15 with small portion sizes. 1) Ming's fried ginger chicken- Not as tasty. We asked for extra sauce. 2) Deluxe chow mein: this dish has an average taste with a few veggies and shrimps. 3) Appetizer Fried Calamari with sweet and sour dipping sauce. The calamari batter was bland. 4) Chicken with strings beans had big slices of chicken. Not a fan of how the meat were sliced but has a good flavor. The string beans were crunchy. 5) Fish Fillet with mixed vegetables was missing something. Small slices of fish lost beneath the veggies. I am not sure what it is but have eaten in many other Chinese places to know that something is off. I gave this restaurant an extra star for their excellent customer service. It was disappointing that the food quality was not up to par with most of the Chinese restaurants in the bay area but hope that they will bring more authentic tasting food and evaluate their pricing. read more

The food was decent but not as good as it used to be. But the cleanliness of the restaurant falls well below acceptable standards. More importantly, the rude and unprofessional staff single-handedly ruined what could have been a tolerable dining experience. read more

Very attentive service and pleasant atmosphere. The crabmeat puffs were good and appropriately served with accompanying sauces, including hot mustard. General Tso Chicken and Sweet & Sour Chicken were both very tasty and ample portion sizes allowing for a second takeaway meal for two. The General Chicken is listed on the menu as spicy, although it was relatively mild. Next time I will request additional spice if possible. Definitely foresee a return visit and a new restaurant to add to the 'playlist' for Chinese cuisine in the area. read more

This place always blows my mind in how well this restaurant is standing strong through the pandemic through this times This is one of my favorite places to pick if I am craving a good Chinese food. Prices are reasonable and portion size are just enough to make your tummy happy and maybe some leftovers too I cannot complain, the service is amazing, they always make sure that they took your order correctly if it to go. I have not had the chance to seat inside the restaurant and order since after the pandemic but before I love the service this restaurant always kept a good friendly team, the ambience playing some smooth music in the background and always clean and the owner always very friendly, welcoming and smiling. I will keep coming back and it's highly recommended read more

Absolutely delicious and a fantastic value. Top notch ingredients, artfully presented and cooked! The friendliest folks you could meet!

The food is excellent. The pork buns remind me of my childhood in SF, very authentic and flavorful! The walnut prawns are my go to! The sweet and sour chicken is also flavorful and meaty. The service is always quick, but the friendliness of staff has been a hit or miss for, hence the 4 stars. Also, the place can use some remodel. Regardless, the food has me coming back. read more

Best restaurant in walnut cree/pleasant hill.Great chinese food with best customer service and ambiance

I'm happy to report that Ming's Chinese in Pleasant Hill is open for indoor dining! It was takeout only for the longest time, but the old employees are back, providing excellent service and dishing out some yummy Chinese food. My tummy is full, and my heart is happy. I had a delicious dinner. For a long time, I was known as the curry chicken lady at Ming's, and tonight it did not disappoint. Curry chicken, kung pao three, and potstickers were scrumptious! I also love their salt and pepper fish filet and the crispy ginger chicken or prawns. Of course, their hot and sour soup is great too! The restaurant is very clean, and it looks great. Service is always fast and friendly. Ming and I usually chat about the Warriors when I visit. Lunch specials are still very reasonable. When you call in an order, you tell them when you want to pick it up; they have always been on time with my orders. read more

I passed by Ming's one afternoon, and as I was looking for Chinese food that day, I stopped to pick up a lunch on my way home. Salt and pepper fish is a favorite dish of mine. Lo and behold, it was on the menu! So I ordered the salt and pepper fish fillet lunch special. For dine in, the lunch special includes egg rolls, white rice, and soup. However, Ming's takeout doesn't include the soup, and they were out of white rice that day. The cashier offered brown rice, fried rice, or chow mein. I swapped in fried rice for the extra $1. I really liked the generous portion sizes--it was enough food for my lunch and for leftovers the next day. The fish was delightfully light and crispy. The salt, pepper, and jalapenos balanced the dish nicely and highlighted the delicate flavor of the fish. The chili peppers were unexpected, but I found that the peppers added an interesting smoky twist to the sweet heat of the jalapenos. All around, a great experience from Ming's! I'll definitely be going back for more. read more

Exceptional customer service from the owner or manager. They greeted us at the door and sat us right away. When we arrived, there was no one else eating. The place was clean and well decorated. The menu has a lot of choices. They have good non alcoholic drinks too. When my sweet and sour fish wasn't crispy enough, the manager apologized and got it remade promptly. He didn't make me feel bad for the request. After we started eating, the restaurant got busy really quick. The food was delicious. I would definitely come back. read more

Great food and atmosphere for a good family dinner spot. Their service is spot on and the food was even better. I am pretty sure this place is family owned and operated as any good hidden restaurant spot should be. read more

When we have a hankering for Chinese food, Ming's is our go to! The food is consistently good at this place.

Due to the pandemic, the no longer have dine in, but when they did the restaurant was spacious and always clean. If you go, say hi to the fish who greet you when you enter! read more

Service. Eating out is somewhere people relax , enjoy food after whole week of rushing with schedules and life in general. But we were rush so bad that we didn't enjoy the food. Food was good but not that great but it's all about service. There are a lot of Asian food restaurants. You want your customers to comeback. read more

Salt and Pepper Fish is literally the best - along with the chow mein! Highly recommend!

Excellent food every time. Have been here many times. Love the potstickers! Staff very friendly.

Excellent food. Consistently good service. I'm surprised prices remain so low. Love that the owner is always present in the dining room, watching what goes on. I'm working my way through the menu. Had at least a dozen items. Never had anything bad, maybe one item that just wasn't my taste. read more

Ming's - Crispy Ginger Fish lunch special. - Chinese Near Me - Pleasant Hill, California

Oh how I hate having to write this review. Loved this place so much...but after last night's visit me and my husband realized how much the quality of their food has declined. There was no flavor, our food was cold after just 5 minutes of it arriving at our table. We felt like we were eating leftovers that were heated up in the microwave. So disappointed... unfortunately that will be our last visit. read more

Waited 45 minutes and never got our food. We had to leave because our kiddo was so hungry. Very busy and obviously understaffed.

Best Chinese food in the East Bay, I've been coming here now for about 15 years Everything is so fresh, and the service is really great. The lunch special is really reasonably priced. The flavors are amazing, I usually order walnut prawns and fried rice, the crab puffs are a must order if you like seafood/creamcheese wontons, The hot and sour and the Sizzling rice soup is also great! Salt and pepper beef, and hunan prawns are a nice dish as well, 10/10 recommended read more

Finally got around to trying out the oh so popular Ming's, and I have to say that I was very pleased. I've only dined inside (pre-covid), but the food quality is excellent for what you receive. Had a quick lunch here while running some errands in the area, and the food and service were wonderful. As far as their lunch specials go, this spot has two elements that I absolutely love when it comes to Chinese food: it's good and cheap! Mmm hmm! You know my cheap ass loves me a good deal, especially during lunch time. Lunch specials are around $10 a plate and include hot and sour soup, an egg roll and white rice (you can upgrade to brown rice, fried rice, or chow mein for an extra charge). Decided to try their honey walnut prawns since this is what seems to be a popular item here, and they did not disappoint! They started me off with that lovable hot tea. Portions are adequate for the price. The honey walnut prawns were delicious! They came deep fried to perfection in a sweet honey sauce with some tasty candied walnuts. The fried rice was fluffy and flavorful and the egg roll was perfectly crispy. Literally scarfed my meal down in a matter of minutes. Yeeeep, that ish was so damn good! I wouldn't say that this is a spot where you'd have lunch leftovers, but you'll definitely walk out of there stuffed and satisfied. Service was very attentive and my interactions with the staff were all very pleasant. I can totally see why this place is a local favorite. The quality of the food that you'll receive for the price is seriously a steal. I'm looking forwarding to grabbing some takeout from here during the COVID restrictions. Hopefully I'll be able to dine-in again here at some point in the future. read more

I don't live in the east bay but whenever I stay out there, I always get Mings! I usually order to go and the food is just delicious, crispy and full of flavor! They have a lunch option so you get to try at least 2 entree and side of eggroll! Service is always good to me, I only do to-go. Very nice inside and always see families eating! read more

So glad our favorite Chinese restaurant is once again open for dine-in meals! The food is delicious as always, the service is attentive but not intrusive, and the ambiance is delightfully Asian-eclectic. The owner, Ming, is on site to ensure everything runs smoothly and customers leave happy and well-fed. They do a large take-out business, but I prefer eating in the restaurant, where I can be pampered and the food is served piping hot! read more

I've been frequenting Mings for 13 going on 14 years! Mr ming is amazing and recognizes customers. I get the same lunch special every time, Mongolian beef with fried rice and a side order of potstickers. CANT GO WRONG! it's the best. Plus he teases when I order anything different. Today even with a mask on, he recognized me as soon as I walked thru the door. I'm glad to see Mings is surviving the pandemic, I dont know what I'd do without my favorite Chinese restaurant. Nothing else compares. On a busy dinner night be prepared to wait for large orders. Like my household sometimes orders for 7 people it can be over an hour on a Friday night but so worth it, I promise! read more
