Ming Palace

NOT GOOD. We have been going to this place for over 15 years and never had an issue until we ordered takeout this evening. The General Tsao’s chicken is hard, over breaded, and basically empty. It made me feel sick shortly after attempting to eat about a 1/3 of my food. Rice was bland and the crab rangoon not even stuffed just hard pieces. I don’t know what happened to this place. We used to eat lunch here 1x a week. Too expensive to get not good food.

Every time I have visited Ming Palace I have enjoyed the food and the service. Yesterday we needed some comfort food due to bad news and this place fit the bill with the family style dining and the complimentary tea that they serve. The servings are huge, delicious, and fresh. Yesterday we ordered all new dishes to try and the Roast Pork and shrimp dumpling soup stole the show for all of us. The shrimp dumplings were fantastic. For an entree I ordered the roast duck which was perfect, mom had the General Tso, and my daughter tried the Shrimp with Black Bean sauce. They are very reasonably priced and there is plenty of parking.

The recent visit was a very bad experience. The food was served by the owner. The bill had ~17% of service charge extra for two guest. This charge is newly added on verifying, the owner rudely answered the charge as tip. Please be careful.

The food is OK. I work in the Area so ordered take out both times. The "best" part about both meals was the rice it's simple and not very flavorful so make sure you use your favorite soy sauce. Kind of goes down hill from there for me. Wonton soup was not good. The wontons very soggy and the broth was greasy with no flavor. General Tsou's Chicken overly breaded and nothing Hot or Spicy about it. Next up boneless spareribs dryer then I would like but flavor was ok. The person that took my order was was pleasant. Food was fast and I was helped a soon as I arrived he was all very nice. The price was reasonable.

I love this restaurant, we've came here twice, and we had equally as great of an experience, and I love the atmosphere, and the food is amazing also, I recommend to the General TSO's Chicken, I will definitely return to this restaurant, highly recommended!
