Ming in Bromley

I can't get over the rug just inside the door! It must have been there for years!! Sooooo dirty! Anyway, the food and service were ok really, but everything is old, from the glassware, crockery, cutlery, the food warmers old old old. It needs to be cleaned and modernised.

I don’t think the restaurant has been decorated since I last went over 20 years ago, but the food was fantastic and the service was friendly and attentive. I would recommend booking as it was very busy.

It's ok. Not great for a vegetarian, but that's often the case with Chinese food. Meat eaters in my party seemed happy with the food I found the service a little 'confused and manic. Not a bad experience, but not great either. Stake prawn crackers on arrival.

Had set menu C and it was stunning! Service was great, we were very well looked after and really enjoyed our evening here. Highly recommend.

Great experience great staff. Great service and the food is amazing 👏

To is place used to be ok… we will never go back!! A can of diet come £4!!!!!!! Special friend rice £8.50!!!!!!!! Prawn crackers (about 7) £5!!!! The man was sitting there gambling and the woman not attentive to her customers at all! Service dreadful! Cared more about her laptop! Will never go again!

Han has very good customer service. Very funny and polite Was very patient with my special needs grandad, Gary Very good portions aswell. 10/10 would recommend

My family has gone here for years - every time we are there we are met with kindness, excellent service and hospitality. The best Chinese restaurant in Petts Wood!

The food was horrible and at the end they still tried to charge service charge even though it wasn’t compulsory. They argued with us over the service charge even though they didn’t come to ask if we wanted any more drinks and they were very horrible throughout our time at this outrageous restaurant. They were shouting at my parents saying that the service charge needed to be paying . My dad was trying to say that it isn’t compulsory to pay service charge . I do not recommend for someone to go there for their birthday ( it was my birthday) or to not go there at all for that matter . The people in the restaurant were very racist as we are all Indian and the white people in there was very racist. It is the worst restaurant I’ve ever been to .

The food was excellent as usual. But the 2 men serving and taking our orders was so rude and mody never smiled at all so grumpy trying to hurry us up eating our food. No respect. You need New workers definitely

Did the Sunday all you can eat. It was packed. Great food and fast service

Lovely food! Jessy in particular was very very lovely and welcoming. Will be coming back

Nice restaurant, lovely staff and great food. Perfect for a large family gathering. We had all you can eat Sunday lunch, all freshly cooked, not a buffet!

Nice interior, old fashioned, staff are very friendly and attentive. The menu needs more vegan options! Salt and pepper chips and tofu were great.

Great food and service. Highly recommend going on a Sunday. Kai (The Man) is fantastic. See you soon!

Enjoyed my visit to this restaurant. Good food and friendly service

Not sure we ate the same place as all these great reviews😂Picked to eat here for lunch given the positive google reviews. We paid just under £60 for lunch. The waiter was very unfriendly food was bland table cloth and heaters on table dirty. Won’t be back. Still looking for a good Chinese restaurant in Kent 🙏🏽

Always having an amazing time at Ming Restaurant! The food is delicious and the portions are good (we go for the set menus). Jenny is so sweet and pleasant, always adding an extra spark to our family meals. Keep up the good work!

Fabulous meal - as always. Our restaurant of choice for family celebrations. Thank you to the staff, particularly Jenni for making us so welcome

Best. Food. Ever. Great people and place 10/10

Amazing Sunday lunch as always Thank you Gary

Amazing food and lovely staff been here many times

We have come here for many years and cannot fault the service, food and atmosphere. The a la carte, set menu and Sunday buffet is great. Jessy in particular is very helpful

This is the best Chinese restaurant in the area. The food is always top tier and the service is amazing. Our waitress Jessie always makes our time her worthwhile!

Very good food and friendly staff👍👍👍

This is our favourite family restaurant!

Took 3 friends for a meal last week . We al agreed the food was great. Thank you Ming restaurant pettswood.

This used to be a great Chinese, we drive from Beckenham to petts wood to get it. But now it’s the worst food you could ever get. Just spent £65 on food that is now in the bin. I’m praying we don’t get sick from what we did eat. I don’t know what’s happened there but I’ll never buy food there again. We bought a good range of things too, it was all horrible. Noodles especially bland. Sweet and sour had a strong vinegar taste and the chicken was poor quality. There were black particles in my rice, the chilli beef was fried batter with a mustard taste. Not for me. Eww my tummy is flip flopping.

We went early evening on a Friday, and the restaurant was nearly empty. We ordered ma y plates, and even one that was not on the menu (Salt and pepper fried bean curd) which was everyone's favourite. By the time we left the restaurant it was filling up, so it is best to book.

Very good food, food came up in drips and drabs, but did not spoil the meal. Definitely will go back !

The restaurant was quiet when we visited at 6p.m. on a weekday. The food was good and the service was OK. I do not often think of going to this place with King Palace & Xian just a short journey away in Orpington. However our visit on this occasion was good enough to merit returning.

Mings does a set two course lunch that is very reasonably priced. For this reason visits here are relatively frequent. The food is good and the servings are generous.

I’ve live locally and have visited Mings for many years. The food is always good and today we had the Sunday lunch for the first time which is brilliant value. Such a good traditional Chinese ❤️

Went there for sunday lunch buffet menu. Food was lovely & so were the staff & good price.

Fabulous lunch 6 of us . everything was just perfect

We've been living in Petts Wood for nearly 5 years and I can't believe it's taken us this long to visit Ming! We went on Saturday night for my partner's birthday and had a wonderful time. We had our three year old with us, and from the moment we walked in, the staff were super friendly and very attentive. They had a booster seat for our little one (which was upholstered with the same fabric as the chairs, small detail, but pretty cool). We opted to go for one of the set menus, and the food was absolutely delicious. The starters came out super quickly, and we were able to share that with out little one and still started to fill up. There was plenty to go around. Next was the duck pancakes. The duck was delicious and plentiful, and getting an extra pot of pancakes was also no trouble at all. Then the mains came out, and they were just the right size. There was so much food and we found ourselves defeated, but fortunately the leftover rice, and the extra curry we ordered were boxed up to take home no problems at all. I would definitely recommend booking, especially on the weekend. When we arrived around 6pm, there were a couple of other tables occupied, but by the time we left a bit after 8pm, the place was heaving. Definitely seems to be a local gem, and we will very likely be back again in the future!

I enjoy their set meals special!

We celebrated my husband`s 70th Birthday Party here, inviting 34 guests, it was a lovely celebration, the food was delicious and hot. I would thoroughly recommend Ming, whether celebrating in a large party, or for a meal with friends or a partner. The meal took place over the Christmas period but we were allowed to stay as long as we wanted. The staff at Ming are extremely friendly and professional.

Really good restaurant, nice food, great service

Unfortunately not as good as it used to be

called these guys to make an order and the guy was fast to get me off the phone when i called back cos i didnt understand him was rude. deffo not a place to order from poor service for a quality area

I recommend this place to everyone! The best Chinese in Orpington. My husband and I always get the set menu c and it is great food and really good value! We normally end up taking home left overs. That staff are all very friendly and welcoming and we always get a strong community vibe here. This is now the only Chinese we will go to in Orpington

The food was ok, but not the best Chinese I have ever had. The service was a little disappointing. Bit cold and unfriendly. The prices were also on the high side for what I was expecting- I think there are lunch time deals but the waiter didn’t suggest or offer these.

Very good chinese. Lovely friendly people. Great menu everything really tasty. Also had rake away just as good

Writing this a little late but just had to say My Zhusband took me here for a Birthday Meal ! We went because we had heard it was good and people had recommended the restaurant . Well I wish we hadn’t bothered the Dodd was bland and expensive and the staff slow not very helpful and really quite rude. Will not go there again !

Always a good meal in here. Friendly staff and tasty food. Lots of choice on the menu also including set menu options. Thanks!

Lovely food, great service, friendly staff. Will definitely be going back.

Spent over £90 on terrible Chinese food. Noodles were inedible. Beef didn’t taste like beef. So much MSG. Shocking state of restaurants today charging this amount of money for such terrible food. I am finding that cafes are the best value for quality. Won’t be going back!

We visited on Father’s Day for the all you can eat buffet and it was excellent. We were a table of 5 and it was busy but the food and service were excellent. We waited a little longer than usual for our duck course but it was incredibly busy and didn’t spoil the experience at all. Would definitely return and highly recommend.

I order over £20 worth of food to get fried rice with fully good eggs in it however the chicken was actually raw and sliming inside. Same with the chicken inside the noodles. I should have know something was not right when the delivery turned up in less that 10 minutes. How we the app is still showing that my order would be her with me between 23.30 and 23.50 the food arrived at 23.10 just 9 and a half minutes after I ordered it and was clearly uncooked chicken in my meal. Which me and my children were eating until we realised that something was not right. How can you be feeding customers raw meet and chicken or all meet. If me or my children get sick I will be suing your company and have video evidence to proof it.

I have been going to Ming's for years. The food and service is always excellent and its good value for your money.

Not good in there. Food not great on music nights. Manager very rude. Over charged couldn’t find cash I paid with try to say I didn’t pay as much as I did. WILL NOT BE GOING BACK. Other people saying food not good.

Had a lovely lunch with friends, super friendly staff, large portions and delicious What more could you want? Also amazing value and a relaxed but good service. So full thank you and I’ll be back so good xx

I keep returning to Ming’s, the food is very good. Nice decor, great location. I had the lobster & seafood set meal for 2 with a friend of mine & it was excellent. The service is good. I did have trouble getting their attention to pay the bill so this could be improved. Overall I was very happy and will return.

Have loved this place for years but not ordered probably since before lockdown...are they under new ownership? ordered takeaway last night and it was the worst Chinese I have ever had - totally tasteless and horrible - had to throw it away - so sad - loved going there for Chinese New Year but never again...

I came here with my family for a birthday dinner. My mum is strictly vegetarian, so we ordered her a noodle dish, and emphasised that it is vegetarian. It comes out with shrimps and chicken on, to which we complain and it is taken back. It comes back out two minutes later. My mum starts eating and mentions eating something that didn’t seem right. As I dig deeper into the noodles it is obvious that they have scooped the meat off the top and left the rest under the noodles. The manager did not apologise nor did he empathise, instead he kicked us out. If that had been an allergy (to shrimp for example) what would have happened? It was not about getting a free meal, it was about him understanding how their actions can impact people. I will not be eating here again nor will I be ordering take aways from here (as we usually do). Absolutely appalling behaviour and attitude from the manager.

Enjoyed my food, present lovely and staff was welcoming and helpful

Went of a lunch time, very dry bland food. Should not be allowed to keep gold fish at front shop if they cannot look after them correctly, basically dying.

We've been frequenting this restaurant for years and seen two new owners in that time, but it's now the last time we will ever visit. We had lunch set menu A, bottle of House white and 2 coffees. Thought the bill was rather expensive and it wasn't until we'd got home we realised they'd charged us the evening price for the set menu, so we've been overcharged by at least £15 considering the service charge added too. Food was also not as good as it's been in the past, A shame, but goodbye Ming!

Picked up a takeaway from here this evening but we were unfortunately disappointed. In particular the crab and sweetcorn soup was like water and the noodles were very dry, lacking in sauce and ingredients. I’m wondering if the restaurant is under new ownership. We have been using Mings for years ..Probably will look for another Chinese restaurant next time.

Given a 4* as food was lovely but they attempted to give us the previous tables bar bill which practically doubled our bill. The first thing the waitress said when we queried amount was “we have lost a lot of money tonight” which made us feel that it was a deliberate add on.

Absolutely awful service and food at a busy period. Ordered a takeaway by phone on Mother's Day and was told 6.15pm pick up was fine. Arrived 5 minutes early to complete chaos. A long queue of people both for eating in and out. The restaurant was completely disorganised and just shouted at customers, "who's next, who's takeaway?" To compound that the people who were picking up a takeaway were the asked who had pre-paid! Those were given preferential treatment despite the fact I had ordered before them. I ended up paying £36 for a cold takeaway! Never again.

Good food but I thought it was a bit expensive

Family meal, seven of us. We all thoroughly enjoyed the Ming experience. Food was lovely, hot and tasty. Service very good and we all agreed we would go back again.

Six old friends enjoying a Friday catch up evening and we settled on Ming. Never been there before and on arrival was surprised how busy it was and it wasn’t yet 7pm. I chose crispy aromatic duck to start. This was plentiful and delicious. For...

Been here several times in the past and it’s always been a bit hit and miss between good and average but this time we thought everything we had bar the duck was very poor quality. First of all it was very cold in the restaurant,although...

Beautiful meal and service on a Thursday date night

Returned to Ming after a few years - looking for a Traditional Chinese restaurant which seem harder to find these days. Was not disappointed, with a wonderful meal, good service and nice ambience. We chose one of the Set Menus, with a wide range of...

Never been to Mings although I've lived round bromley for years. But tried it on Thursday for a change. Lunch with my daughter and we had the 2 course set lunch, two spring rolls each really crunchy and delicious with sweet chilli dip. Then i...

Great quality quality and quantity

Lovely food and 1st class service

Decor and interior were quite nice but after having the prawn chow mein I've had very bad stomach ache since. I am skeptical about the cleanliness of the kitchen and would avoid any seafood meal here.

Was meant to be a celebration for our friend completing her master’s degree but was a really poor night. The staff were rude and poorly trained in people skills. The food was below average and not up to standard considering the price. We were constantly...

We ordered a takeaway. We may have been unlucky and they were having an off night, but we were greatly disappointed as the standard used to be reliably excellent both for takeaway and eat in. This meal was mostly overcooked with an underlying flavour of...

First time we tried Ming after all the years it's been here was this month and it was lovely. The food is always really good and the flavour is balanced. Upon arriving there, the friendly welcoming staff always provide a lovely atmosphere. The restaurant could...

A friend raved about this place, but to be honest I was a bit disappointed. The egg fried rice barely had any egg in it, or flavour. The chow mein and Singapore noodles weren't very good. Sweet and sour chicken balls were nice, lemon chicken...

Unimpressed with the food. Better other local Chinese restaurants provider nicer food. Shame was looking forward a nice meal.

Excellent local chinese. Very good sweet and sour.

The take-away food was ready on time, delicious and hot! I was impressed with the covid safe sheet covering the payment device. However, I did not appreciate a member of staff literally brushing shoulders with me in the shop as he rushed out with a...

This restaurant never fails to impress. I’ve been using it for years. The ambience is good and it is nicely decorated. I visited recently for my wedding anniversary and had a fabulous meal. We were greeted warmly by the front desk on arrival. Our temperature...

This Restaurant has a great variety of foods to choose from and is a great place to have dinner with family or friends

Food is edible, we were served the wrong food which came up in dribs and drabs. When we mentioned this 2 waiters stated arguing across our table. Not impressed.

We have been eating here for years. I should have written something ages ago. Food is always reliably good. Every now and then we try somewhere else and regret not having had Ming. None of this thick slimy sauce you get at other restaurants. Proper...

So grateful to Ming for being open despite the virus for my B-day a couple of days ago. Food for four as wonderful as ever, ready in - get this - twenty minutes - such a high standard and extremely careful on social distancing. Hot...

We always use Ming for a Chinese meal even though it’s a 20 mile round trip to get there. The food has always been good and the service too, the waitresses & waiters are always very helpful and don’t mind helping you to choose the right meal if your looking for something different for a change (they know the menu inside out) We do like the waiter Hand who’s very Chinese & really funny with his own Chinese sense of humour, he does make us laugh. So if your looking for a good Chinese restaurant you won’t go wrong with Ming.

Our second visit here. All the food was good, as was the service: very friendly.Pleasant surroundings. Dinner for 5 adults and two toddlers was a shade over £100! Result. A good 4 stars.

I ordered a takeaway (my first from this restaurant) by phone and was surprised to be told that it would take at least one hour before it would be ready as they were so busy. A quarter of an hour before it was due I received a call to say that it would be longer and that they would call when it was ready. That call came about ninety minutes after I ordered, When I arrived there were at least 20 - 25 people waiting for takeaways. Making my way to the front of the queue I eventually managed to speak to a waiter and within 5 minutes was away with my ordered food.Maybe New Year's Eve was not the best time for quick service!However, on getting the food home, both my wife and I, and our guest found the food excellent, better in some respects than food we often eat in London Chinatown. Our only criticism is the very small amount of egg in the egg fried rice. My wife and I will certainly be using this as a takeaway again in future and will try eating in when we are not in a hurry.

Food is excellent, they always use fresh vegetables. never had a problem with food.. great service too

I had a takeaway from Ming over the weekend for the first time and the food was delicious. My wife, son and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Will be ordering again

Visited again October 2019. It was so good it felt a totally different restaurant from our last visit. We had booked and were immediately welcomed and shown to our table.The crispy duck was accompanied by extra pancakes, and plenty of spring onion, cucumber, and soy sauce. It was cooked perfectly.perfectly and delicious ItI hsd the chicken with ginger andI

I had the pleasure of having the salt & chili squid and the special fried rice. There is only one recommendation in orpington and petts wood for Chinese style food. Really well done guys, I will be back for sure. 10 Outta 10.

El servicio al frente de la casa era bueno, las chicas eran educadas y cálidas, pero desafortunadamente el servicio de comida era muy lento. ¡Más de una hora de espera para nuestro plato principal! ! ! Un montón de pedidos para llevar así que obviamente la comida estaba siendo cocinada pero simplemente no la comida del restaurante! ! He estado antes en un fin de semana y nunca antes había tenido esto, en el pasado la llegada de la comida era rápida y eficiente. Tal vez se quedaron sin chefs anoche, pero si este tipo de servicio continúa, me temo que me perderá como cliente. ! ¡Y estoy seguro que muchos más también! Vi algunas otras mesas que estaban igualmente molestas esperando su comida o digamos la falta de comida. Gestión por favor obtener su acto juntos El valor y el servicio en esta revisión es deficiente debido a la lentitud con que llega la comida (las bebidas y el entrante estaban bien, las mesas estaban despejadas, los camareros eran buenos pero los chefs no cocinaban la comida arruinó toda nuestra experiencia)

Food hot on arrival to the table well cooked and resonable priced. Been a couple of times and anyone that think the food isn't good should go to the Ritz or Harrods

He estado aquí varias veces en los últimos 15 años. La comida siempre es muy buena. Personal amable y acogedor y siempre un ambiente encantador. El restaurante está un poco cansado y las salas de descanso realmente necesitan una renovación pero está limpio. Mi favorito es su pato crujiente y langostinos con fideos Singapur. Ningún otro restaurante ha tocado la calidad y el sabor de estos platos. Recomiendo encarecidamente este restaurante.

Siempre tienes garantizada una buena comida en Ming's. Es mi local para un chino y normalmente ordeno para una colección y ocasionalmente ceno. El personal es encantador y acogedor. La comida es sabrosa y hace lo que dice en la lata. Realmente no te puedes equivocar!

Always a good meal in here. Friendly staff and tasty food. Lots of choice on the menu also including set menu options

Have visited several restaurants we have been unable to locate one that combines good food at a reasonable price.

Food amazing, especially the crispy duck, but staff extremely rude. The place was literally empty (us n 2 other tables of 4) but the welcome we received was cold, and we were rushed n made to feel we were in the way. The waitress wants knocking out...the way she spoke to my daughter's mother in law was inexcusable and had it been any other people at the table I would have made a big deal about it...as her husband said Basil Fawlty has nothing on her! I was thoroughly embarrassed to have brought them there. We won't be returning which is a shame as it used to be a nice place.

Good food, more than you can eat, tasty and good service. What else could you possably want? Would recommend eating here.

When in reality this place is poor. Eat in or takeaway service is poor. Food is below average . Some reviews say this is the best Chinese in Petts Wood! These people need to get out more!
