Let's start by saying that I did come midday on a day that is not a normal dining day. Business was slow. There was only one other man that was inside of the establishment as a patron. I always like to start with the better things first. Spring rolls - top-tier loved every bite duck sauce could've been better, but as far as craftsmanship and quality behind the spring rolls was impeccable. I'm always very weary about getting spring rolls because they're mushy inside or the quality of the ingredients is not great but these did not fail. *Rate 4 out of 5 only because even though the quality was great, it's a spring roll. It was not packed with cabbage as most are and there was only one shrimp in each one. Suffering bastard - the drink was really good. I've had better but due to what I know for the drink, it was prepared very well. It wasn't too sweet and a packed a pretty decent punch, but I would not suggest it to a non-drinker. *Rate 3 out of 5 just because I felt like it needed fruit or some type of something to bring it to the level it needed to be, but it was just prepared like they didn't care. Lobster sauce - ultimate Sike out, presentation looked amazing... It was full with meat and it just looked amazing. Unfortunately, the taste was off by so many levels... I had to add soy sauce just to get the lobster sauce taste that I'm used to from prestigious Asian restaurants. Even then, it lagged where it should've excelled. I was disappointed in the dish, but I also would try it again just to see if it was a one off. Very high hopes for the dish. *Rate 3 out of 5 only because the presentation was there the ingredients was there. It just needed more flavor. House fried rice - love the presentation... Love the quality behind the ingredients... Once again flavor was not there. I don't know if, the flavor I'm used to behind fried rice is flawed but once again not my first rodeo and I've loved House fried rice since the first day I had it at six. It felt like the person was afraid to use the things they needed to make the fried rice the way it was supposed to be made as far as flavors. *Rate 3 out 5 because the quality behind the ingredients and presentation was all on point. It's just for some reason it felt that the rice was lacking salt or MSG. The flavor profiles did not combine the way that they were supposed to almost as if they was added together at the very end with no time to combine before hitting the plate. Boneless spareribs - these was probably the best spareribs when it came to tender and well cooked. The sauce that it's marinated in it felt as if they didn't marinate it long enough or didn't give it another brushing before finishing the dish. Just on how tender they are and them not being burnt or overcooked as many restaurants to do so many times over and over again I would definitely try this dish again just to see if anything would change. The marinade needs to be left on longer to make sure that the sweetness behind the marinade really sticks to the pork. *Rate 3 out of 5 only because of how tender the ribs were, I couldn't believe how well it was cooked and the quality behind it. I just wish that they left the marinade on long enough to get the sweetness that I was looking for. This is something I could be very easily fixed and would excel the dish by three folds. Customer service - didn't seem to wanna help at all, but did greet me at the door as soon as I got there. Seemed more interested in what he had going on behind the counter. Seem disturbed that I wanted to dine in instead of taking the order to go. Honestly, don't know if that's really was the case, but that's just how I felt based off of the vibe he gave. The one part that did make me feel weird was the combination plates was fairly priced, but didn't have what I was looking for entirely and when I asked if I could change the rice because I don't eat soy fried rice the man made it extremely difficult to substitute House fried rice even though I was willing to pay more money just to swap out the fried rice to house fried rice. So intern I had to spend $50 on a meal that I could've probably spent no more than $20 on. Just to get the items that I wanted on the plate separately because rice couldn't be substituted. Rate 2 out of 5 - the guy who was there she'll probably not be tending to customers more so the bar and probably grabbing orders, but just FYI, not very personable or friendly to the needs or the changes of a patron. I would need another visit to the establishment to determine whether or not I would recommend this place to someone. A lot of the dishes that I had seemed promising, but just seemed like maybe it was an off day for the cook or it may be due to dietary procedures, but I can honestly say if someone who has been doing it for years of experience was to go inside of the kitchen and taste what I tasted, they would agree that it was just off a little and could easily change to be an amazing experience. read more

This place is great, I no longer live locally so when I visit it's nice to have the chow mein I grew up with. We always do pick-up but the inside looks nice, it's a small place, and looks clean. The staff is also very friendly. I also love the new grab-and-go scorpion bowls! read more

Really like this place, the Chinese food in the New Bedford and Fall River areas have a long and rich history and this one is one of the good ones. They have good Chinese food with nice portions that are hot and fresh, the rice is top shelf and I love the egg rolls. It's a spacious, clean and warm decor and overall a very pleasant experience. The bartender was very nice, friendly, very good at his job and you have to be here because they have a lot of fun and exotic cocktails. I had the Bird's Nest which is a crispy potato basket filled with chicken, pork and beef with mix vegetables and fried rice, very good. But the show stopper was the Pu Pu platter with 2 spring roll, 4 chicken fingers, 2 beef teriyaki, 2 fried shrimp, boneless spareribs, 2 chicken teriyaki, 4 crab rangoon, 4 chicken wings and 4 fried wonton, all really good! They have high chairs by the bar so it's child friendly but it is unfortunately not wheelchair accessible. Bottom line The staff, atmosphere and food are all soot on. Recommended! read more

They have GREAT sushi! I go to the New Bedford location and they've always had great service and great food and they're usually quick!

No. Just absolutely no. Should have stayed closed. Now its got me wondering why they were closed for so long. Absolutely hainous food. Cooked at 11:00 or so. Then when I got there after dinner time, still the same overcooked product. Sat there all day. Hard to believe they think they could still serve that to people. read more

Stale chowmein was stale and the fortune cookies were to worst experience ever and the fact was the other place was closed so we had to go there and it was horrible read more

This is a review of the bar only, we stopped in for a drink and didn't eat there. My husband grew up in Mattapoisett so he knows the place from his youth under a different name. There was one bartender on staff for the whole restaurant and bar and she was working her tail off. The Mai Tais seed to be the popular drink so we ordered those. Really good and wow only $15 for 2 drinks. If you are craving a Mai Tai a good pit stop but you will have be patient if it's always like that on a Saturday night (one bartender). read more

This place has the best Chinese food. If you miss the Chinese food from the 70's go there. Everything is fresh and the service is great!

my friend & i eat there a lot. an abundance of food & delicious when hot. love the scallion pancakes. a must to try !!!

Love this place, won't go anywhere else for Chinese Food. Everything is served fresh and hot and always tastes amazing. The staff is friendly and I'm looking forward to dine-in returning, but for now, I'm glad to have this place so close by for takeout! read more

Edge of my walking range. Good if you like Chinese food. I'm sorry I can't answer parking question. I only remember the TV because the girl at the bar gladly changed it to Monday Night Football. (It was pre-season in August she can't be blamed for not knowing about it.) No self-serve bar. Classy place. Too classy for just me. I give it four stars because I have to rate something and this seems to be almost the middle and three stars might scare people away- I really can't/shouldn't rate at all. This type of place is classier than my taste for dining alone. They did not throw me out for wearing jeans, but I felt I should have been dressed better and on a date. That is MY feelings not theirs. It probably is a great place and whatever review I give is biased by MY feelings and not THEIR food. read more

For some reason, Abner and I have never tried Ying Dynasty, so we decided to give it a try. As far as Chinese restaurants go in the New Bedford, we really like our drinks and dinner. Friendly service. Glad we tried it. We give it a Kravitz score of 4! We'll be back for sure. read more

I will NEVER eat at the Acushnet Ave restaurant again! My friends and I ordered a little over a month ago. We picked up the food to eat at home. We were charged for an order of crab rangoons and they were not in our order. We called they would not credit the credit card. We had 2 choices either go back and get them (20-30 min round trip or they would give us a credit for the next time. That was 1/12/21. We called to order on 2/23/21. (Due to weather and Covid we had not ordered out. ) They would not honor the credit because it was over 30 days. Basically to bad it's over a month. On top of that with our original order we ordered garlic shrimp. It was nasty so we threw it out. I am someone who believes in supporting local businesses, especially during COVID. THIS IS ONE RESTAURANT I WILL NOT SUPPORT. I never write reviews but felt this was worth writing. read more

We stopped in for lunch last Friday and were very happy with the service and the quality of the food. Combination lunch specials were excellent and substitutions are not a problem. Won Ton soup is the best we've ever had. Excellent all around experience. We look forward to returning for dinner and knocking out a few Scorpion Bowls. read more

Horrible.. Picked up supper, pork chow mein, house fried rice and chicken fingers. Chow mein gravy was like water, only consistency was the pork in it, house fried rice was white with no flavor. I called to inquire about it not being fried and was told to add soy sauce. Chicken fingers were huge, 3/4 of it was batter. Worse meal I have had in a long time. Pains me to think I paid 26$ for this. read more

Ying Dynasty - Chinese Near Me - New Bedford, Massachusetts

BEST Chinese food I have ever had! ( and I'm a food critic ) you have to try the spring rolls. The place is low key which I like, they have great cocktails as well & very clean bathrooms. I suggest stopping by! read more

Only positive part was the service. Nice and polite workers and all that jazz Now the menu gives little to no description at all on anything that isn't priced to at least 13 dollars. In the end we chose a Hot & Spicy beef, Sweet and Sour Shrimp, and a Yatka Mein soup. The Hot & Spicy was the "best" part of the meal, although neither hot nor spicy. The Sweet and Sour shrimp was the plain deep fried shrimp with twice as much batter as there was actual shrimp. The batter overpowered any taste in the shrimp, which wasn't hard to do because the shrimp had no taste what-so-ever. Now yes it's supposed to be eaten with a sauce but I was given two sauces, unlabeled, and the Beef was already served in the sauce. So I tried both, one was horrible, an over amount of tang, the other tasted like a less strong version of the sauce prior. The Yatka Mein soup (A personal favorite of my Mom's who orders it at any Chinese place) Had almost no taste to speak of. The two sides of rice was put in the same container and there was no utensils to speak of. Chances are you had to specifically ask for them, so a person coming for the first time, planning to eat it somewhere other then home (Work, car, ect) Would be up shit's creek without a paddle. Lastly the bagging was just inconvenient. Stabled shut, filled to the brim, I had nothing to actually hold onto and I had walked there. I had to keep it on my arm, with the hot food burning me. read more

We love Ying. We order from here at least twice a month. The food is always fresh and delicious, the service is awesome! Sometimes we eat in, its low key and quiet, and the staff are attentive. The drinks are really good. We love it! Highly reccomend the kung pow tofu, crab rangoon, chicken rice noodles, shrimp and pea pods. J & A read more

Wow - had a pretty disappointing experience here tonight. I want to start off by stating that the Food was good and cooked to order - no complaints about that but when we got our bill - they charged us $10 for our soft drinks?!?! We received a total of 5 soft drinks with one of them being "iced tea" - although according to my husband it tasted like dirty dish water and he never finished it - when it was taken away it was 3/4 full. Our first delivery of soda was crammed with ice to the top of the cup leaving all of us with about a half of cup of soda to actually drink. When we ordered our second drinks we instructed the waitress to not fill it with ice. We also advised her that the iced tea didn't taste right. I guess you can chalk it up to us not looking at the menu closely enough - but there are NO FREE REFILLS here ! They didn't even offer to remove the lousy ice tea which was sent back! And at $2 a pop - that should have been removed. When we expressed our displeasure for the over priced drinks - we barely got an apology- instead we were sternly reminded that only large chain restaurants offer free refills and this was a small business where they don't offer this. I'm going to ask if anyone can fact check that because we were not convinced this is true. Soda should not be this expensive unless you are at the movies! ( and even then it's one hell of a mark up) Also - of note - they have a sign at their register that stated they can " no longer accept credit cards over the phone" - curious ? read more

I used to be such a fan of Ying's but through the years it's gone downhill. I'm assuming change of kitchen staff has something to do with this. Had a very disappointing experience and have not been back since. Fried rice was al dente with barely any pork in it. Food just did not taste fresh. read more

We take out from yings once a week. Very good food. We have eaten in also and have enjoyed the service . The drinks are also very good some Chinese places around don't make them as well. read more

This is without doubt the BEST chinese food I have ever had! I live about 40 minutes away .. So I will only get to have it once in a while. It's cozy & I love the few seats at the bar! Bartender was so nice & attentive. Food is just fab! If I could change only one thing.. better rolls! other than that, food is the best!!! read more

This place is great. Not one problem here. Very friendly staff and Very good food! Atmosphere is perfect for a late night dinner.

Was a good place when it was Red Dragon, Now the food is horrible and management is just as bad.. Did not want to hear that we wear not satisfied with the food.." Make some good fresh food and no complaints" Will not be giving them my hard earned money ever again.. read more

Whats happened to the good food up a Ying's up here. They must have changed cooks every thing was to oily and not well prepared yuck

We got a lot of takeout. Food was fresh and delicious. Prices were good. Will definitely order again. We loved the spring rolls

Food is really good here. Service is good. Drinks at the bar are good. Never had a bad meal. Had dicey service once when they were busy, but in their defense it was when they first opened and I don't think they expected to get so busy so soon after opening. We have not run into any issues since then and we've been going since they opened. Beef with broccoli is my fav! read more

Great food. Only had one bad experience here. The chicken wings were a bit foul tasting and smelling, but we brought them back without too much fuss. The prices have gone up though, which caught my family by surprise the last time we ordered. We had an old menu. Overall, this is our go to spot. read more

I love the food at Ying Dynasty but I can't stand the fruit flies that are constantly flying around your head, landing on the tables and walls and just being an overall nuisance. After putting up with the flies for several months, we have finally decided to no longer go there. As good as the food is, it's not worth the "grossness" of the flies! The waitress said it was due to the duck sauce but, as far as I know, all Chinese restaurants have duck sauce but that's the only place I have a problem. read more
