Ming's Asian Bistro - Gaithersburg

Went to eat dinner at this establishment this evening and was turned away by the owner. No reason was given, even though they were open. I’ve definitely crossed this place off my list!

We went at 11am and they charged us dinner prices. The food was mediocre at best. I won't be back

A family owned small but very nice Chinese restaurant that looks very clean and feels very comfortable. We went there for a casual business dinner. And it is good for a meal within a family or good friends. Seaweed infused fish fillet: this is highly recommended. The fish was very fresh and juicy. The shell was crunchy and tasty. I love this one. Roast pork: highly recommended. The pork was very tasty, a perfect mixture with salty and sweet. And the meat was very tender. Roast duck: it was good for sure. But not as good as the seaweed fish fillet. Shredded lettuce: tasty and crispy as expected. Recommended. Foshan-made pig’s trotter: this was so so. Not bad at all. If you are not as picky as me, you may like it. Gifei Chicken: it looked so pretty. Tasted OK. Definitely better than $5 chicken in Costco. Combination in big casserole: the soup was soooo good! It was made by slowly boiling of pork bones. It doesn’t matter what were in the soup, they were all delicious. Fried pork kidney with green capsicum: it was so so. The kidney was a little bit over cooked. But the entire dish was very tasty. Deep fried prawn with salted egg yolk: highly recommended! This is one of my favorite Chinese dishes. All prawns were fried with a thin layer of crunchy salted egg yolk shell that had added rich flavor to the fresh prawns. I love it! Water spinach with chopped garlic: the water spinach was very fresh! After a meal with so much protein, it is the best dish to delight your stomach.

The food is traditional Chinese/American food. Not great but pretty good. The dining room is very small and you get the impression they really don't want to encourage people to dine in. The service is terrible. You have to ask for a menu. Then ask for a glass of water, which arrived lukewarm with no ice. Because the room is so small if the other tables are occupied it's going to be very noisy. Not a good experience.

A cozy place with ample parking nearby. Nothing can beat a warm bowl of tasty beef noodle soup in winter season.
