Ming

Visited this place to try Indo-Chinese food. Nice & friendly staff and good ambiance. Food is average and portion size does not justify the price.

Avoid Ming Restaurant: High Prices, Tiny Portions, and Terrible Value Ming Restaurant on Oak Tree Road is a massive letdown and easily one of the worst dining experiences I've had recently. If you value your money, your palate, or even basic customer service, steer clear. The first thing that hits you is the unreasonably high prices, which set an expectation of fine dining quality—an expectation that is immediately shattered. The portion sizes are laughably small, resembling appetizers rather than main courses. This poor value proposition is exacerbated by their utterly disappointing pricing structure. The greatest offense to value is the fact that no main course includes rice, Lo Mein, or any starch accompaniment. This means that after paying a premium price for a small dish of protein and vegetables, you are forced to shell out another $14 to $16 just for a basic side of rice or noodles to make it a complete meal. This egregious hidden cost takes the final bill from expensive to absurdly high, leaving you feeling completely ripped off. As for the food itself, the experience was painful. While spice is subjective, the heat level in our dishes was too high to bear, tasting less like nuanced heat and more like deliberate overkill. It felt like they were masking a lack of genuine flavor with an overwhelming amount of chili. We struggled through two bites before having to give up on half the meal. To top off the disappointing food and prices, the customer service was nonexistent. Our dishes were slow to arrive, and instead of attentive staff checking in, I had to get up and quickly seek out a server multiple times just to ask for the next course or even the check. This lack of professionalism made the meal stressful. Furthermore, for the prices they charge, one would expect a pleasant atmosphere, but the decor is incredibly ordinary and unremarkable, adding zero value to the premium pricing. In summary, Ming Restaurant delivers tiny portions, pain-inducing spice, and astronomical prices, all served up with subpar customer service in a forgettable room. There are countless better options on Oak Tree Road—save your money and your evening by dining elsewhere.

The food is nice however the price is so not worth it. We were also group of 10, 6 adults and 4 kids, and paid 500 bucks for food and drinks!!! Every dish was atleast 20 to 25$. And the portion size has been reduced so you end up needing to order more food. The drums of heaven were just ordinary. Chilli garlic fried rice and noodles were nice. Fish chilli gravy and Shrimp chilli in appetizer were yummy. But again due to the portion size we needed to order more food:( The drinks were nice! Would request management to consider the cost of the food here. There are lot of better places that serve Indochinese food at way better prices..not worth the visit

We loved their food! Their food tasted very similar to Kolkata Chinese food! We ordered their Schezwan chicken dumplings, Ming cumin lamb, Chilli shrimp, Burnt chilli garlic noodles, and Chilli chicken hakka style. All were delicious! However their dishes are expensive. And they add 20% gratuity on all orders which felt too much!

great restaurant, food, ambiance and staff everything was good. It is a bit expensive but considering the taste of the food, the price is justified. Being vegetarian we had 1- Crispy Lotus Stem with Honey and Dried Red Chilli is so delicious that I highly recommend you try this appetizer. The 2-man chow soup was very good as it was less oily and it was like clear soup with the right amount of thickness which we personally enjoyed, 3-Basil flavored noodles, 4-Virgin Mint Mojito 🍹 good number of options here for vegetarians. 20% gratuity tax was automatically included even for 2 persons. Overall a great restaurant that is a must visit.

Jitu was an excellent server! It was our first time dining at ming, he was very welcoming and gave great suggestions! He recommended the papaya salad ,chicken bao ,pineapple rice with shrimp Thai curry and it was delicious. Thank you jitu for the great experience, we will definitely be back again…

Ming has quickly become one of our favorite destinations for Pan-Asian (Indo-Chinese) cuisine in central New Jersey. The restaurant's interior is thoughtfully designed, offering a perfect blend of casual elegance and fine dining ambiance. The entire staff is incredibly friendly and hospitable, enhancing the dining experience with their warm service. A special mention goes to Jitu, an outstanding member of their team. His excellent service skills and cordial treatment consistently make our visits memorable and enjoyable. For those looking to explore their vegetarian offerings, I highly recommend the Hot and Sour Soup, Paneer Chilly Dry, Cauliflower Manchurian, Black Pepper Mushroom, and Fried Rice. Each dish is a testament to Ming's culinary expertise and dedication to quality. If you're in the area, Ming is a must-visit. Whether you're looking for a relaxed meal or a fine dining experience, Ming delivers on all fronts.

The vibe here is pretty chaotic, probably because there's no soundproofing, I guess. For a fine dining place, the inside is kinda meh. The cutlery was out of fashion. The food portions were a bit small, but it tasted good. Prices are a little high.
