The food was solid — exactly what you’d expect from a fancy, full-service spot that probably has cloth napkins and a server. The staff was super friendly and made me feel like a regular, even on my first visit. Takeout was the usual wait time, which I appreciated because hanger is real. A bit too pricey for my wallet’s comfort, and parking was… an adventure. Unfortunately, the prices mean I probably won’t be back, which is a bummer because it’s right by my work, so my lunch breaks almost got dangerously convenient. Prime location!
Bao bun heaven, that’s it, that’s the review. Every single bite was loaded with flavor and texture that just works. I had the pork belly and bulgogi buns along with the Cubano, and each one had its own personality. The pork belly was rich and melt-in-your-mouth good, the bulgogi was sweet and savory in all the right ways, and that Cubano… perfection. The wings? Also a win. Crispy, saucy, and everything you want them to be. Ming’s is one of those places that makes you instantly happy the moment you dig in. The food feels thoughtful but fun, and the vibe is laid back in the best way. I’m already plotting my next visit for a sando because if it’s anything like the buns, it’s game over.
This was my rice pudding. I gave 2 stars bc the buns I also ordered were soooo good but letting this out the door is super confusing to me. I had delivered via uber eats. If I was in person I would have just exchanged for a new one. I’m assuming rice shouldn’t be green but I tried it too. It wasn’t good. 😔I would get the buns again but this was a too wild to say nothing.
Ming’s offers a unique blend of flavors and a fun, modern ambiance that makes it a standout spot for fast-casual dining. The menu is a creative fusion of Asian, American, and even some unexpected elements — think jalapeños, French fries, and steak all making surprise appearances. The food is fresh, flavorful, and well-presented — especially impressive for a fast food concept. I wasn’t exactly sure how to categorize the cuisine, but that’s part of the charm: it’s bold, original, and doesn’t stick to one box. Service is minimal, as you order at the counter, but the staff is friendly and welcoming, which adds to the laid-back experience. Whether you’re craving something new or just want a casual spot with great taste, Ming’s is worth checking out. I enjoyed my visit and would definitely come back again.
I have to start with the service. There was a tall young man that may have been the manager. We saw him running around taking care of everybody. Almost scary cuz I could just think about something I needed, like a knife and I looked up and had eye contact with him and he motioned did I need a knife and I said yes. He hit that several times. My friend had suggested this place to our group. I've got to tell you that parking is a little challenging. But I would probably take a paid ride here. Everything we had was delicious. And fresh. And delicious. And fresh. Okay. I said that twice because it's that important. Beautiful presentations. Art on a plate. I have friends that are not into this type of cooking. I have no problem going here with this other group of friends LOL. I can't tell you what I liked best, because I liked it all. And now they have the place next door for coffee and goodies. So if you're into fancy coffees or tea's then that's your place. And of course you can bring that over to your side on the restaurant side. Looking forward to the next visit. Just get there before your friends do so you get a good parking space or ride together LOL.
