MinMin Noodle Bar in Birmingham

👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼 The greeting was very poor at this time! Some noodles were not cooked properly, but he actually said: I have a good stomach, so I like to eat sweet potato noodles! Hello! I'll bring out the food as soon as it's cooked in your kitchen! I'm willing to change the rice noodles, but if the kitchen isn't ready yet, how can this shop prepare the rice noodles by himself? Do you believe me? Then he took the bowl of noodles back and cooked it in the kitchen for me. Never an apology! What a masterpiece!

This restaurant is a typical Cantonese Cafe. Foods are amazing, especially soup noodles. Price wise reasonable, probably between £10-15 per person in average for a main meal. Got plenty of parking space in front of the restaurant. Loved it would recommend.

Ordered the three roast with rice and my friend had the three roast with noodles The duck on both of our dishes had very little meat it was all bone or fat. I understand belly pork is very fatty anyway but it had the smallest sliver of meat and my food was cold but the drink was warm

Love this place food is great comforting really tasty homecooked food , never disappoints and always consistent! Top marks to the team . Will happily recommend to anyone .

Very very nice, after visiting the supermarket we needed something to eat. The menu is amazing, its got everything and more you'll need. The building is modern and clean, looks different and well put together. The toilets were lovely well looked after and clean. The staff really friendly and the price for what we got very reasonable. The food, was just lovely and came in large portions which we found a big surprise for somewhere like this which does feel like a top tier establishment. Its that good I think we are going to keep it in mind for special meals as its well worth the trip from Derby.

We Always have a fantastic meal. Friendly staff great atmosphere . Light tasty food

Roast duck with rice is the best

Good Chinese cuisine. Asian approved! Great service and environment.

Worth the occasional visit. We have been. 4 times and the food is ok if not a tad pricey but the service is super variable - from friendly to just downright rude. Today we sat down and was about to place an order but were forced to move our because another customer on another table had two extra companions attending. The waitress was really rude about it so we just left. The other time we arrived 5 mins before opening with the door open and staff lounging around but was refused entry and told to wait in the car until the shop opened. Both us and a second family left.

Very good food at reasonable price

Its almost perfect Just the hk style milk tea are not authentic Hong Kong style frozen milk tea is not strong enough

It's good asian food at a reasonable price served by friendly staff. What more could you ask for?

Min min comes back with a slightly different menu yet very tasty dishes and generous portions. The environment is nice and friendly but the location is not as convenient for people who live in Birmingham city centre. Also, schedule is a bit restrictive as it closes at 9pm on Saturdays.

Is my favorite restaurant. Love the food

Serves a fusion of one of the best East Asian cuisine in Brum..

Ordered 3 roasted with fried rice noodle. It needs extra £1. But come with even less portion likes kids menu. And the 3 roasted items are also come with smaller portions. Checked with staff and just replied that’s the correct portion for fried noodle. And I can have extra noodle with £2 more. No way

Often visited the restaurant and the food quality was good but recently it was turning worse than before. Ordered a beef ho fun and the rice noodle was not well stir-fried. Asked for a replacement but it turns out the same. One of the staff there was rude and reluctant to offer a replacement.

Popped in for a quick lunch before visiting the superstore. Very impressed with the place. I would describe it more as a cafe style in layout and size. There is an outdoor overspill seating area for the late warm afternoons or even the evenings. The menu has a small but very popular selection of Chinese, Vietnamese and Japanese dishes. I personally chose the Beef brisket Massaman Curry with fried rice. Absolutely delicious! The service was excellent and staff were friendly and helpful. Recommend booking prior to attending. Due to its size and clearly its popularity it gets quite busy. Definitely book if you have a party of 4+. We booked at 1:45pm and within an hour it was almost full. Delicious food, delightful atmosphere and service. Recommend a visit if you’re in the area.

We enjoyed a dinner here tonight, our first time visiting and we will definitely come back. The price is good for portions size, the restaurant is comfortable to sit in, clean tables. Recommend the beef ho fun in particular! If you pay in cash you can get 10% discount off your bill.

Food is fabulous and staff are so friendly.

Hong Kong feeling (except for the price) The siu-flavor has a great feeling!

There are many types of food available 👍 Today I had fried pork chop rice. The pork chop was fried very crispy and so fragrant. I also ordered chicken spring rolls with lemon, served with cucumber, red dream and white shredded vegetables, and the portion was large. I was very full. Woolen cloth! It’s a good choice to go shopping in the Super League and eat here👍👍

Fantastic foods , everything on point .

There are many types of food to choose from, suitable for different needs. The quality is very good, the portions are sufficient, and the presentation is pleasant. I can't wait to taste it immediately when I see it. The taste is satisfactory, and it can be said that it is full of color, flavor and taste. Overall, it is a restaurant that I will go to frequently and is worth looking forward to.

Staff are friendly, are prompt to bring drinks on order of food, and additional drinks after meal. Menu has a good variety to suit most tastes. We chose individual noodle dishes, which were presented lovely, tasted great and fresh, and plenty to satisfy your appetite. We tried several years ago and visited every time when we are visiting the local supermarket.

Always hits the spot when I’m craving Asian cuisine!

The food delicious, good food and good value, staff are very friendly.

Nice place,great food and coffee too!

We're holidaying from South East Asia and needed the taste of home. MinMin Noodles hit the spot. We left with happy tummies. (although the two chillies symbol on the menu really wasn't hot at all, lol)

Good food, good service, good music, good prices, good drinks. That's all!

Quick stop for lunch, really impressed by the service and food. This restaurant serves very authentic Chinese food with such a wide variety of dishes on their menu. We got the salt and pepper tofu to share and the tofu was well seasoned and crispy! We both had the lemongrass noodle soup, really fresh and clean tasting soup. Will be back again when in Birmingham :)

Lovely food and friendly staff :-)

Good food, reasonable price and good hygiene. Nice noodles and bubble tea.

Tucked around the corner of the big Chinese supermarket is Min Min..... Lovely relaxed atmosphere and very flavoursome food..... All at an easy going price..... Lots of parking all around and it's safe.

Great customer service, Amazing food. Highly recommend

The food is very good. Every dish you order will be a delicacy. The girl who served us treated us very well, she was very patient even though our English was not the best. We ordered gyozas, curry rice, breaded pork (our recommendation) and chicken udon and the price was pretty good for England. The lemon tea is very delicious and they prepare it themselves. Everything is very clean, you can see how they cook from the outside. We will be back. :)

I don't believe in the book seat system. I boarded the car to get in. There were no seats. Everyone just sat down and they didn't reserve seats at all.

Our usual go to for great authentic Chinese dishes, with freshly made Ho Fun noodles, and roasted meats. Lovely surroundings and decor for a good evening with friends or family Keep up the great work Denise & Team

The best brisket Pho I’ve had! Great atmosphere, friendly staff and quality food. This place is awesome and I will definitely return. I wish this independent business all the best of luck

The service was very good and the food was tasty. Well presented and good portion size

Convenient if you like to buy Chinese food , Wing Yip superstore is nearby, parking is free within the limit allowed

Great food, reasonably priced and very convenient if you are going to the supermarket next door. Can be very busy if you are going as soon as it opens

Incredibly delicious and tasty food everytime we go. The food and service are always top notch.

Highly recommended!! Our favourite dishes have been chicken wings with salted duck yolk 黃金雞翼, seafood egg whites fried rice 海鮮蛋白炒飯, and crispy noodle 香脆炒麵. Love this place please keep up the quality! ❤️

This restaurant was fantastic, and the food was delicious, but the service was subpar. They screwed up my order; I requested seafood but received chicken. When I alerted them, they said they could modify it but that I would have to wait another 15 minutes. Of course, I didn't want to wait because my fiancé had received his order correctly and I wanted to eat with him. I didn't want him to wait until my order was ready because his food would be cold. Despite the fact that they messed my order, my dish was also cold. Furthermore, they did not apologize for their mistake, and they should have given some dessert or something else, or at the very least erased the incorrect order from the bill. Ignoring their error was a negligent act on their part. The food was decent overall, but the service could use some improvement.

Fantastic place for authentic Chinese cuisine. Everything is presented so well and tastes fantastic. Wonderful atmosphere and very very friendly staff.

First visit and found it outstanding. From the service to the food, which is clearly prepared freshly just delicious. Prices are what you would expect these days but are not outrageous by any means. Will be sure to visit again when in Birmingham.

Great food after a long drive and not a long wait for it either, the triple roast is better in flavour both for meat and broth so I definitely reccomend that.

港人經營的餐廳 有飯有麵 點了一個椒鹽鮮魷 份量有點少 一個牛腩麵 一店辣肉碎麵都不是太好吃 勝在業菜品款式多 雙色珍珠奶茶不錯

We popped in here before a match at Villa Park and we’re really impressed with the food and service. The minmin curry is terrific as is the sweet and sour. Generous portions and all served with rice or noodles. Good value too. Just a shame it’s a 25 min walk to the game. Still at least we can walk some if it off!

原本諗住黎飲茶 黎到先發現幾年前已經執左 得返一間茶餐廳 無得揀之下唯有照食 我地叫左「三燒」，越式春卷，蜜桃紅茶同芋泥 但估唔到有驚喜喎! 燒味味道不錯 春卷都好脆好食! 另外 bubble tea 又係值得叫~ 即叫即做 非常新鮮好飲! 比出面更好飲! 下次再黎榮業行都會再黎食 推介!

Very nice oriental food and drinks 🍻

Lovely delicious food. Note this is cafe style dining, reasonably priced

Food was ok, the service was great. Lots of parking.

The food is decent, but it doesn't leave a lasting impression. The ramen broth lacks richness. On the other hand, the bubble tea stands out as the highlight with its consistently high quality and delicious taste. I have purchased it multiple times in the past. In general, the prices are reasonable. The server's attitude is commendable, but whenever I visit, the restaurant is always packed, resulting in long wait times for ordering and service. It seems they require additional staff during peak hours. Nevertheless, the bustling atmosphere is enjoyable as the restaurant is consistently busy and never empty.

Food was amazing. Great service and really quick! Will definitely come back with kids as have high chairs.

Great food to have here. Recommended if you are in the area

This is a modern almost canteen style restaurant. It's busy bustling and casual .You could easily be on a shared long table. People go for the authentic food which comes from the kitchen freshly cooked.I have been many times for lunch and always enjoyed the noodles, pad Thai, rice prawn dishes.

Great food unique menu and fresh good quality tastes like I cooked it

Absolutely delicious, excellent service and many happy faces. Love coming here. It’s modern clean vibrant and has a really good feeling. Thanks guys

Absolutely LOVE this place. Love the FOOD. Love the PEOPLE. Love the DECOR ❤️

Lovely place and good food, thank you

Authentic traditional Chinese restaurant. Very cute café restaurant, perfect for grabbing a quick bite. Food was good, affordable and well presented.

Food is so perfectly delicious that's why we keep coming back to this restaurant. Staff are so friendly and helpful. Ambience is unique and enticing.

Tasty food & excellent service.

Three visits now and really enjoyed each one. Food great. Staff lovely. A fabulous experience if you fancy some honest Chinese style food.

Good quality of food Reasonable price

Nice food as always. My top 3 restaurants in birmingham. Very reasonably priced too. The older batch of staff are much more friendlier. The new staffs, despite being there for some time now, still lack a bit when it comes to way of speaking to customers.

It was ok. Had crispy noodles with tri roast. Tasty but very greasy and didn't realise the meat would contain bones as it was rough cut from the roast, but that may be more my issue and not understanding the dish. Noodles are very nice. Can't complain about the service as they were excellent, quick and friendly and the atmosphere was very pleasant.

Been eating here for over a decade and I keep coming back because the food is SO SO GOOD. Best in BIRMINGHAM Favourite is the noodle soup. YUMMY. The owner works so hard and is LOVELY. Wish I lived nearer or could get it delivered.

Wanted to go here as was visiting WingYip supermarket. Lovely hostess, sat us lovely, but gormless waiter comes over (finally after 30 minutes of us trying to get his attention to order some drinks) and then makes us move so more people can be accommodated, even though the restaurant was at 60% capacity and not increasing. A little uncertainty over the vegan options but I trusted the team after trying to be explicit I wanted vegan options as have heard they are good for this. Menu didn’t reflect this; just vegetarian. Food came out fairly quickly and was amazing. Well flavoured. OK portion sizes. And front of house worker was lovely. Improvements are for the table to be given and asked for drinks ASAP, waiting staff to be a little more switched on, waiting staff to ‘read the room’ and if two tables are taken by diners while it is quiet, then let them, rather than making guests uncomfortable and move. To be picky, the fixtures, such as the decor óbice and around the tables to just be polished, to maintain the modernity of the venue. Mainly a positive experience just mulled by staff wanting to clean tables during a quiet period rather than taking orders from waiting guests.

Food is good...been here loads of times regular customers , but the service has gone bad, the same staff has been horrible to me and the girls over charging us about the food we didn't order,he was not happy when I questioned him and start being very sarcastic ,when the bill was settled and we ask for the receipt he ripped the receipt aggressively from the machine and handed it back to me....now I wonder where are those 2 wonderful ladies who regularly work in these food shop...management needs to know what's going on here....really 😔

Where do I start I was introduced to this restaurant by my son & my god what a gem my favourite

Yummy Chinese dishes, specially fried noodles

Excellent place, trendy interior, delicious food.

Lovely place to eat while visiting their supermarket

The food was flavorful and affordable( soft shell crab, roast duck, pho, roast pork just to name a few).The staff was friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend and it’s in my top 5 favor places to dine.

Best Asian food in Birmingham! Clean and reasonable price 😊

Great little find in Nechells!! Lovely authentic, good value food with great service! Five spice beef Brisket with tofu was amazing 😋

the food is good, and you can order dessert as well as tapioca drink. It is not expensive as well, a large tapioca drink is around 4.5 to 5 pounds, while a dish is around 10 pounds. We ordered 5 dishes, a fried tofu and the total was just 56.6 pounds. Must try!

Wonderful staff, great food! Thank you MinMin!

An absolute find. Can’t fault it. Great food and great service

good selection of chinese and vietnamese food.

The best food and friendliest staff!

Food was delicious,staff amazing,atmosphere buzzing lovely place gets very busy but staff are very competent

Brilliant once again, friendly staff, wonderful food

Great little Cantonese style restaurant with a range of Cantonese and East/SE Asian dishes on the menu. The place is not very big and can get very busy at lunch time, so arrive early to get a spot. Sharing tables is common as the place is really quite small. They have high chairs for young children and the service is generally kind and attentive.

The food was excellent, and the staff were very friendly. I highly recommend this place.

Food is top notch same with table service, I think it would be packed out if more people know about it's existence.

Delicious food and great service

Really great food, portions are good too. Very much HK vibes and convenient since its right next to an Oriental Store. Food was also serves promptly and staff members were very nice. Overall would definitely recommend if you miss authentic Asian food!

Slightly confusing way of identifying vegan options - you have to specify the vegetarian options you want to be made vegan-friendly. Otherwise, all good. A few options for vegans but nothing extensive. Fine really as we only stop here when we're shopping at Wing Yip and need to fuel up. The spicy mock chicken ramen was delicious. Really loved it - and although it was spicy, it wasn't torturously hot so it was uncomfortable to eat. Plenty of parking on site. Some outdoor seating, if you need it.

Usually this place is good and we have wonton soup noodles amongst other things. Never had any issues on other visits but this time the wonton tasted off. Got the final bill where they tried to charge for 50 percent of the wonton even though we had only tried the wonton and never ate anything else. Manager/owner wasn’t very pleasant about the situation so I won’t be returning again.

Fantastic, yummy Vietnamese -Chinese food. Triple roast is amazing and so are the broths they even make their own noodles. Highly recommended as a starter the Chung Fung spring rolls and the salt and pepper spare ribs. They also sell Vietnamese coffee and the coconut shakes are delicious .

Hi all! I have been a regular customer since quite some time ago. Just want to share my recent unpleasant experience in this restaurant. We had been waiting at the door for more than 10 minutes. No one came to greet us. One of us headed to the counter, asked whether we would be served and finally, a staff told us we had to wait for another 15 minutes. Actually, we don’t mind to wait! We just thought there would be someone letting us know. So we took a seat outdoor and waited for another 10 minutes. Still, no one came to give us the menu. We all understand that you guys are really busy during lunch hours. However, taking the initiative to greet customers and let them know the situation is of great importance because it shows whether your staff know the appropriate etiquette in a catering industry. Ignoring your customers is rude and disappointing. 😭

Explored this beautiful restaurant post going thru a lot of good reviews myself. It's a small yet cozy place with a really pleasing staff. Everyone had a welcoming smile on their face. The food undoubtedly yummy. Tried the crispy chicken wings salt & chilli pepper (hmmm, never thought the batter would be so flavourful). The satay king prawns just so crispy ..!! The beef brisket was spicy and yummy just apt for the weather...!! Overall a wonderful dining experience with fresh and yumm food..!

Great food great staff and great atmosphere,, best pho in Birmingham in my humble opinion 🍜 Absolutely delicious 👌🏽

Really good Asian Food. Delicious!

Great place to eat, friendly staff and tasty!!

Amazing staff, amazing food. Highly recommend!!!
