Tuvimos una comida aquí cuando nos trasladamos a la zona hace dos años y fue horrible. Sin embargo, sobre la base de que todo el mundo merece una segunda oportunidad, Fuimos la semana pasada y ha mejorado mucho. Sigue siendo un camino ir en términos de velocidad de servicio y ambiente, pero va en la dirección correcta. Probablemente le dará otra oportunidad.

We have used this Chinese for takeaways over the past 5 years as the food is mostly of good quality. However, the customer service and delivery service is terrible. We have had a few instances where we have had to wait for an unacceptable length of time for food delivery. On the last occasion we ordered food at 5.20 as we knew they would be busy with it being a Saturday night. We were told 45 mins for delivery. An hour and half later no food. When I got through on the phone we were told lie after lie. They forget you can hear conversations. First it had been delivered to the wrong address (odd to say they know our name when we ring, then it was out with delivery driver (but when they rang he didn't have it) Next it was just in the kitchen being cooked. Why not apologise and say you misplaced our order. For poor service and not the food we have found an alternative takeaway!

We have never dined here, but have ordered takeaways numerous times as the food has always been of a good standard. Unfortunately, we probably won't be ordering from here again, due to our experience this evening.We ordered our food (£40) at 7 PM, and we're told it would be between 8 and 8.24 PMwhen it arrived. The time ticked on, and after it reached 8.40 PM and we were still without food, we rang the restaurant only to find out that they hadn't yet made the food, and it would be another 90 minute wait. We cancelled the order as we simply could not wait any longer, with young children getting tired, the situation was of great inconvenience.Will most definitely find another Chinese to order from in the future.

We have had takeaways from here but we thought we would try eating in. The decor was very dated and the menus when they arrived were falling apart. There only seemed to be an all you can eat option. When we began to order starters the server began to add more and more starters. In fact she really ordered for us. The starters just kept coming all cooked very well and really tasty but we were left stuffed by the time it came to order mains. When mains arrived they were quite small. It was really like being at a buffet. Great if you want a budget meal and want to fill up on Chinese starters.

We used to live in Belper and now travel back to visit family and always have a Mings when we go (any excuse). We hate our Chinese restaurants around here, their not in the same league as Mings court. The decor isn't great but the service is a 4/5 but the food more than makes up for everything else.

This was our first visit to the Ming Court. The decor is dated and could do with a makeover. The appetisers and starters were plentiful however when it came to the mains it felt like they weren't happy when more mains were ordered. My children were not keen on the starters and were asked by the staff what was wrong with them and why they were not eating !!!!!! Took half an hour to get a jug of water but quick to serve pints of soft drinks. When it came to paying the card machine was not working so husband had to go and find a cashpoint.

Regularly use New Ming Court for a takeaway - food is always piping hot, fresh and plenty of flavour. Prices are a little high compared to other chinese restaurants in the area however the produce is noticeably of a higher quality so we don't mind paying! Staff are so friendly and are always welcoming and accommodating.

We went for an all you can eat lunch. We felt like they did their best to fill us up on chips and crackers. When we asked for more mains as each one was about a quarter of the normal size, they had to check it was ok. Yes if we only had a couple! We ordered only one main each to share and try each other. This could not be done as they were so small. The food was really good and the service but we could tell they really didn't want to feed us more meat! Could do we a decoration also!

This is the best chinese in belper. Sadly they know it and have steadily jacked up the prices accordingly to the point that I now go to the 2nd best chinese in belper. A real shame because the food is amazing. But over 5 quid a dish when EVERY other chinese is less than 4 is a joke. Pure greed will bite back eventually it always does.

Admittedly, this is based on a take away service however we have also visited the restaurant in the past... We ordered a take away via their website for £40 worth of food. We waited an hour and 20 minutes before phoning and asking where our order was. We were phoned back (as they wanted to speak with the kitchen) to be told that there was a problem with their website and that the 45-60 minutes quoted on there needed to be around the 90 minute mark but they were unable to change this. When the food arrived a complimentary bottle of white wine was sent (no deduction from the bill) and the food was cold. We've eaten in the restaurant too and vowed never to do it again as felt pushed into having food we didn't want via the all you can eat.

You would be forgiven for thinking you had walked into a pub in this pretty Derbyshire village, and to some extent you would be right, as it clearly used to be one.The place has a homely feel and the staff and proprietors were very friendly and attentive, to be honest, there was not a request that was too much trouble.The décor was predictable Chinese restaurant, the drinks and beer were as per the local pubs and restaurants and the food was authentic(well UK authentic, just as we all seem to like)Price was very reasonable as well, overall an above average dinning experience, and a darn sight better than some of the other local restaurants.

We have been for two meals here within a month (which says it can't be that bad) the food is tasty, and a good amount of variety with the "eat as much as you want" menu.This place is good if you want to grab a bite or go out for tea but it wouldn't recommend going here if you are going out for dinner/date. The surrounding are poor (paper table clothes- everything needs updating) the presentation of the food is terrible, a bit of cucumber/tomato stuck randomly on the plate when it's just not needed!They are vey good to our son who is almost 2 and ensure he is brought out chips/prawn crackers (without asking) he actually eats most things such as prawns/rice but it is nice know they try.

We are repeat customers to this restaurant, we have one fortnightly, yes the delivery is not speedy so order in advance even if you are not hungry! usually takes about an hour, which for te quality of the food I cannot complain. I have been to many chinese restaurants around belper for a take away and this by far is the best ive had! I'm also not from around here and it still classes as the best chinese we've had. I do not understand the negative reviews!! the food we receive is always hot and the quality is fantasic! never has it been too oily or greasy as what can happen sometimes, the chicken chow mein is delicious, just how I would want it!

phoned my order in at 7.15 pm to be told it would be 20 minutes, so went to pick up 25 minutes later but had to wait another 35 minutes.the beef, green peppers and black bean sauce was loaded with salt and almost inedible, my partners chicken chow main was so dry it was like next mornings left overs warmed up, we had pork Cantonese style to share which was pretty much tasteless.BUT the worst thing i observed while stood waiting for my food was woman behind the bar, i noted her "wash" (i use this word loosely) pint glasses in soapy water then wipe her hands on a tea towel then proceeded to wipe the glasses. (something that is not allowed anymore under health and hygiene let alone using the same towel for hands and glass ware) a call to the council i think.the worst customer service ever, so my first and last visit to this dump.

Our first visit was on a Sunday, when (unfortunately, as it turned out) an'Eat as much as you like' deal was offered. While still perusing the choices, we were virtually steamrollered into having a 'mini' platter of starters, of which several were very oily and/or tasteless. The Tom Yum soup was full of blobs of oil and the strange strips of chicken were absolutely tasteless. When we finally got to the mains, no surprise - we couldn't eat another thing! There was a pointed remark on the menu that one still had to pay the full price, even if one skips a course. One couldn't help but soeculate that it was the strategy. Nowhere was the light touch and freshness that one associates wirh good Oriental food, to be seen. We won't be going again.

Ordered food from here. One hour and fifteen minutes later we phoned back and were told it'd be 20 minutes.Another hour later we rang and asked where our food was. The response was, "Oh God, we forgot about them". We were offered a free bottle of wine as compensation, despite it already being part of the meal deal we'd purchased.No refund or discount offered. No member of staff appeared to be able to help.The food arrived cold, two and a half hours after first being ordered.A total disgrace. Appalling from start to finish.

The menu was an "all you can eat for £14.90" which I have always avoided before, feeling that quality would be lacking. Sadly, that was true with the dishes generally lacking flavour and succulence. However, it was good to see plenty of vegetarian options and unlike their rivals at the River Gardens they managed to actually deliver what was ordered ! There was a very large group celebration on nearby tables and they seemed to be enjoying themselves. Considering the pressure on the staff they performed extremely well and the service was friendly, helpful and the food came quickly. I have to say that the food was reasonable value for the money but I would prefer to pay slightly more for better quality. We won't be back but for cheap group parties it appears to be worth a try.

My boyfriend and I visited for our 'date night' on the 10th of Jan. Inside kind of looks like a dated truck stop but its not the looks the meal that counts so went to our table ready to order some food but the food that came out, Im sorry to say, was one of the worst Chinese meals i have ever had. Everything that turned up was so salty and dry, the duck had been reheated and dried out so much it was inedible and the gravy it came with had such an overpowering bad taste it was making us feel sick. (We still feel dehydrated this morning). This could be a good plan to make you drink more of the over priced drinks I suppose! The main course was no better, my boyfriend had lemon chicken that he described as an Iceland fillet, deep fried with what tasted like lemon curd warmed up over the top, very sweet. Having said this, they accommodated me well as a vegetarian during the starter however there was a lack of main course options, just vegetables (we do eat other things!) Its a shame, The service was good and the staff friendly but over all well over priced for the quality of food and we will never go back.

Having been a huge fan of New Ming Court, I was disappointed to read the negative comment below and was almost put off using the restaurant again but as we were yet to receive a bad meal we risked it......and we were right to do so! Food was still up to the same brilliant standard, piping hot, tasty and first class ingredients not like your usual salty chinese with cheap cuts of meat -as experienced at the river garden many a time. Friendly welcoming staff who make an effort to meet your every need without being over the top. First class experience, prices have gone up slightly since we last visited but the quality is worth every penny. We will be back!

We have visited this restaurant twice now. First time being an overnight stay in Ripley, and googling Chinese Restaurants to find somewhere to eat at night. We decided on New Ming Court, and wasn't disappointed. The food was excellent, and with the vast selection on offer, we tried abit of nearly everything! Staff were really attentive and helpful, suggesting dishes to try. We enjoyed it so much, that we decided to book another overnight stay in Ripley a couple of weeks later (we live in Sheffield you see!) just so that we could go back to the New Ming Court. And once again the food and service was great.It is my other halves Birthday next month, and surprise, surprise, we have booked another overnight stay in Ripley, just so that we can go back to New Ming Court for his birthday meal!

We turned up at about 10 pm and was relieved to find out we could still dine in after we had been turned down at other places. Service was top notch. Food was brilliant as always and not too expensive meal for 2 with several drink came to only £37 which I can not argue with at all.After we had ordered we did not have to wait long at all for the food to reach our table if anything less than 15 minutes.And at the end of the night i have to say we where about the last to leave.Been a few times before and will definitely be returning again (but not for date night, as its not the most of romantic of places.

Very average restaurant, first of all the staff choose what your having not you! They bought out food we hadnt orderd , dont get me wrong the starters were quite tasty , but after we'd eaten our ribs they bought out the next course (crispy duck) which we didn't even order. The staff didnt seem to have a clue, when they bought out our main course it was boring and tasteless and im sure they were childs portions, I mean we thought it was all ya can eat but it definitely was not, also my missus had a case of the trots while in there and still suffering now bless her. The only good thing about our visit here is we gave them £26 instead of £36 by accident of course :-) its still better than River Garden down the road though.

Its a buffet for 14.90 and well worth the money you pay as it includes crispy duck, king prawn dishes which the other chinese restaurant in belper doesn,t include for 12.99.

Firstly we have been going to this place for years, and all we can say is well done Becky for getting it right now.Friendly staff, fresh cooked food done to order ( so you do wait awhile) but worth waiting for. Make sure you order good few dishes then your not sitting hungry for to long.Before you order your next course.Eat as much as you like buffet is good value for such food. PLEASE note this food is served slowly for you to enjoy your night out, and rest between courses.NOT order moan because its slowly served. Sometimes us English can pile as much on to a plate and stuff it all in quickly.THIS isn't that sort of place, It a journey with food and jolly good food it that.They do take away menu and do delivery.Give it a go plenty of great food for a great price. Relax and enjoy. Lovely.Sandy / Brian

Good value for money with a reasonable range of starters and mains. Nothing fancy. They also cater for parties and on busy days it can be a little chaotic. Often the food order doesn't come all together which can be good as when it does arrive it is hot and gives you time to work through what is on the table. You order starters and 2nd course together then the mains once those are finished. Manager very efficient and friendly. Sometimes there are delays: the trick is to ask if you feel you are waiting too long.

Another couple was stood at the bar waiting for a table for two they had booked a table for 7:30pm it was now 8:30pm ! We had No apology from anyone . we were told we would at LEAST have an hours wait for a table . what should have been a birthday celebration Chinese meal turned in to an Indian meal. We all went to the Grand up the road couldn't have been made more welcome they had a table for us after just 15min wait accommodated us very well , really enjoyed our Indian . Will never attempt to go to the Ming court again .

I attended Ming Court a few years ago with my wife (then girlfriend) and was put off by the loud mouth 'cockney' waiter regaling us with unfunny stories, choosing our food and basically being the third person on the date he spent that much time with us!However, I'm glad to say he has now gone. I returned there in January this year for a friends 30th Bday and there was a large party of us. The food and service was excellent! We just kept on ordering food and they kept on bringing out freshly cooked dishes. There was no rush with your meals and we had a very good evening in there. The value for money was also excellent. I will definitely be going back there.

We have takeaways from New Ming Court on a regular basis after receiving a terrible service from another chinese restaurant in Belper and I have to say Ming Court was a delightful service. The food is always excellent and still piping hot even after the journey home, the staff are always chatty and welcoming and offer complimentary drinks and prawn crackers while your order is being prepared. The prices are slightly higher than most takeaways in Belper however the quality of the food is fantastic. Also the portion sizes can vary but overall New Ming Court is delightful & we will continue to return!

We used to come here but got tired of the waiter constantly coming over and telling us "jokes" or trying to being witty so we stopped, a shame. However went back a few weeks ago for a take away and was told that he had left and got a big smile from the lady serving me. Obviously not just us he had put off coming. The food is really nice, although we tend to have pretty much the same each time, lettuce wrapped pork, salt and chilli prawns and ribs etc, yum! We will now be going back to eat in the restaurant again;-)

Visited the New Ming Court again. Although the prices have gone up again for the all you can eat buffet it remains an enjoyable experienceLance, the former manager is no longer there I have spent time in China and I realise the food flavours can be can be a bit artificial (as they are in many UK restaurants and takeaways) the New Ming Court still feels warm, friendly and the food is certainly enjoyable especially for an unpretentious evening meal.We will certainly continue to go as long as they don't keep raisng the prices too much

The food here is very good. I particularly enjoy the buffet all you can eat night. I was with a friend that wasn't scared to order lots of dishes. We ate the lot as each dish was small. It gave me the opportunity to try many dishes that I wouldn't normally. The only thing I felt could do with improvement was the decor. It is in need of a face lift. Other than that, I will be going again

Don't really understand some of the reviews, been here a couple of times and yes the owner can really get up your nose (in your face) but the food I found to be very tasty. The chat from the staff in the background can be annoying but if its only the food , then I will be coming here again and again

Once a pub, the New Ming Court Chinese restaurant can be found on the corner of New Road and Campbell Street. There is parking at the side but customers can use the neighbouring Vets car park in the evening. There is a warm welcome when you enter and for £14.90 each adult (price correct as of 22.08.2012), customers can choose as many starters and intermediate courses as they like. After eating these, the waiter then returns with the menu for you to choose your main course(s) and side dishes but be warned - by then, if you're anything like us having had a lot of starters, you probably won't want more than one main! The staff are very friendly and the atmosphere is lovely. Well worth a visit.

The resturant was a pub once upon a time and is not conducive to a resturant, food was average with far too much MSG.

In terms of food quality, the idea that making food more spicier by drowning it in sweet chilli sauce unfortunately meant the food was too sweet without having the deired effect with the spice. There is no doubting the portion sizes are adequate but whilst I can normally munch through a lot of food and feel comfortable, I instantly felt bloated and so can only assume this was down to the ingrediants used therefore food very average at best. The next morning was interesting to say the least but the advert is right Cillit Bang does clean up everything!!In terms of service, if you want any of your party to be insulted with what the waiter Lance obviously feels is witty then this is your place. Chinese service is usually considered to be up there with best in class but this I'm afraid fell well short of poor and there are definitely other places that offer better value and service than this wasted £16.

The waiter at the restaurant was very rude and made many inappropriate comments throughout the night. The food was the worse Chinese food I have eaten in the UK, although I live in China and realise that the take away style Cantonese food we eat in the UK is not real Chinese cuisine this was awful even by UK standards for Chinese food. The attitude of the waiter added insult to injury.

I have been here twice and have to admit that the food is nice and on a similar level to the nearby river gardens or memory of china and slightly below the standard of food at the lotus lounge in alfreton. It's in nice small portions which means you can order more or a wider variety so that you don't fill up on one dish. My only fault is that on both occasions the person serving us made inappropriate comments to the females dining with us. Maybe some people like this and see it as banter, but it's just not for me I'm afraid.

Food was excellent, staff were friendly and attentive good night out, was only disappointed by the choice of food on the buffet, at fifteen pound per person would expect a better range.

I've used New Ming Court many times, both for takeaways and to sit in. Lance and his staff are always attentive and friendly. The food is excellent with a plethora of dishes to tempt your tastebuds. Prices are reasonable for an eat-as-much-as-you-like restaurant and the many friends we've introduced to the place, speak highly about it.

Booked here for family meal after hearing from others how good it was. Despite being a table of fifteen the staff ensured all dishes arrived on time freshly cooked and hot. Staff were very attentive to all guests. As soon as you wanted a drink someone was on hand to serve you without delay. Food was delicious and in generous portions. Highly recommended!

The best Chinese Takeaway in York. The food is fantastic and consistently good. The service is always friendly and detail oriented. Ive become a regular and they always know what I'm going to order the moment I pick up the phone or wall through the door. Parking is good, both within the courtyard, and opposite at Tesco. The cherry on the cake is that they take digital payment, so not cash only 👍

New Taste Chinese Takeawaylocation-icon7 Derby RdChinese

Ordered at 6.50 told it would be 30/45 minutes and still no food at 8.10 phoned to ask they tell us he left 15 minutes ago and won’t be long, phoned again at 8.30 to be told he’s had to take another order because he couldn’t find our address 😅. Food arrives at 8.45 COLD and not an even what we ordered! phoned again to tell them we want our money and the driver to collect the food (and his just eat bag that he left at our front door😂) very rude young girl on the phone being cheeky lying telling us she packed the food and knows it’s right! Never in my life experienced something so bad. Disgusting!
