Ming
Description
Ming's restaurant presents a mixed bag of experiences, particularly highlighting the clash between service and food quality. Diners lament a mandatory 20% service charge, which can overshadow the dining experience if the service does not meet expectations. While some dishes, like Gobi Manchurian, receive high praise, others, such as Hakka noodles and Chili Paneer, disappoint with low-quality flavors reminiscent of frozen meals. Issues like incorrect orders and inconsistent portion sizes further mar the dining experience. However, loyal patrons champion Ming's unique Indo-Chinese offerings, especially for those craving flavorful dishes, making it a mixed but intriguing culinary destination.

My first visit to Ming was truly memorable and definitely won’t be my last! I enjoyed a Thursday evening dinner where everything exceeded my expectations. The service was quick and attentive, and my friend, who had been there previously, also spoke highly of the restaurant and its menu.
The food was quite disappointing. The Cottage Cheese Veggie Skewers included only four pieces of paneer and just one small piece of bell pepper. The description promised a variety of vegetables, but it definitely did not live up to that expectation.
There are many vegan options available! We tried the Vegetable Manchurian, Sweet Corn Soup, Chili Tofu, and Hakka Noodles. The Vegetable Manchurian was fantastic; however, the staff faced a few challenges...
Ming is our top choice for upscale Indian Chinese cuisine, especially when we want something beyond the fast food options at Mogul Express. We always order their hakka noodles and fried rice, which are perfectly smoky, tangy, and flavorful. The sides we pair with the carbs—chili, sweet and sour, and Manchurian—along with the vegetarian, chicken, and fish dishes, are all outstanding.
Update (August 2022): I was quite disappointed with the chicken dishes I tried today. The chili chicken tasted like it had been re-fried, losing its tenderness, which is unacceptable for a $20 dish. On top of that, the noodles were overly greasy. Ming has now become one of the hit-or-miss Indo-Chinese spots in NJ for me. I'm lowering my rating accordingly.
