Review Minghin Cuisine

Lyon-Bondye Kratos-Radah

Definitely 5 stars. Food was well flavored. Serve respected dietary restrictions. I just don't know why our Asian server with the sandy dyed hair decided to tell me his name is "Joe" but even the receipt said "Allen"🤔 Also didn't get the greatest portion of noodles for $18 veggie plate.....

The food was very fresh and delicious. You can tell they make a lot of their sauces in house. Prices are also very reasonable, especially considering it's Chicago.

This place was pretty good for my first time. I arrived with a party of 2 and was seated immediately with no wait. We were given a menu but I felt they took a little long too come take our order. I ordered a vegetable fried rice plate and added shrimp on a tablet they provided, but when our plate arrived it had no shrimp. I looked at the receipt and instead of adding shrimp they added extra vegetables to my vegetable fried rice. Pretty disappointed but the flavor was still good. I also order the crab rangoons and they were delicious. The place was good but missed the mark a little on the service side.

Even though they were incredibly busy they attended us rapidly. Great place to have Dim Sum and Fried noodles and rice. I have never been to China but I’m sure this is exactly what good Chinese food tastes like!

Went for dim sum on a Saturday afternoon. We ordered a bunch of dishes and a couple entrees. The portion sizes here were hella large, you definitely get your money’s worth. The food tasted good, not the greatest Chinese food you’ll eat but still delicious. I’d recommend going with your friends or family and eating “family style” instead of ordering by yourself.

Quiet authentic, this time I try the sea cucumber this….braised in oyster sauce in Cantonese Style…not slimy and have a good texture…who love sea cucumber should try this one. Great for HongKong style Dim Sum…this time I went to China Town branch

Baked pork bun is a perfection! We also ordered chicken feet, Siumai, eggdrop soup, fried noodle, smelt fish, fried pork belly. We went there on a Friday 11 pm until they closed at midnight.

I was blown away by this place. My friend went here with her colleagues two nights before and she took me here! The dim sum here is big size and full of flavor. The roast duck is perfectly roasted: crispy skin, juicy meat, and barely noticeable fat. The shrimp wrapped in the flat noodle is so mellow. The highlight for dessert is the lava pineapple bun. We were so full and satisfied. This place has become one of my most favorite of all times!

First time doing dim sum. Quite the experience. Here's a list of all 11 items ranked: Must get: 1. BBQ pork bao- bao was soft and airy, pork was the perfect compliment 2. Deep fried shrimp roll- the amount of shrimp inside was unbeatable 3. Siu mai- beef and shrimp complimented each other very well 4. Chaozhou style dumpling- flavor explosion in my mouth Would get again: 5. Country style dumpling- similar to the chaozhou but not as flavorful 6. Deep fried pork dumpling- loved the crisp outisde and soft inside 7. Baked bbq pork bun- the bun was so soft and inside was not too sweet 8. Deep fried jumbo sesame ball- subtly sweet but would have liked a filling inside Disappointed: 9. Short rib with honey sauce- was looking for more of a honey flavor and tender meat 10. BBQ pork crepe- was hoping it was like the bun or bao but in crepe form; no need for this one when there are similar bbq pork options are on the menu Not for me: 11. Stir fried sticky rice- none of us liked it as we barely touched it; weird flavor that can't be explained They were very busy as we waited to get seated. Unfortunately, they took a long time between our first order (split that into two seperate deliveries) and the second order. We got to the point where we were full and not really excited to eat the rest. Overall, a very fun time and looking forward to coming back and trying out some of the other items.

Dani Clopton

We enjoyed my daughter’s birthday here. The green beans and beef were the standout dish and everyone’s favorite. The pork fried rice and chow mein were very good. I loved the crab and corn soup. The short ribs and pork belly were ok but wouldn’t order that combination again. The orange chicken was ok but the group’s least favorite dish.

Thuy Li

Beautiful atmosphere. The food is pretty. I love that you can have dim sum all day. The eggplant dish is delicious.

Wind Napol

This restaurant is well known Chinese place. Reservations are not needed but recommended. We didn’t have to wait for table of 4. The food is one of the best Chinese out there for sure. Dimsum were really fresh. And chicken fried rice and beef stir fried noodle were excellent. The restroom needs big improvement. Parking across the street they will validate for you and it will become just $2 for three hours.

Allisya

They had a large variety of food and most were pretty good! Highly recommend their chicken feet and bbq pork buns. Their drinks were pretty strong too! Servers didn't talk too much but was good.

ashley zhou

the food here was great! the dim sum was super delicious. the niu he and fried tofu were my favorite. i came here with friends and family, and it was a great place to have a group lunch. great place for food if you’re in chinatown!

Silvisabel Fajardo

A very nice place in Chinatown Chicago. We spent around $40 USD per person, ordering from everything to taste a little bit. The service was fast, they had a table right away. The only issue is parking is difficult but overall an A+!

Jill House

No wait for a party of 5. We arrived around 7:15 pm on a Thursday night (marathon weekend). You order on a tablet. Our server was friendly. We ordered egg rolls. They were ok. I wouldn’t order them again. We also ordered crab Rangoon. Those were good but not cooked evenly on each side. One side was more crispy. We also ordered the 1.5 plate of orange chicken and 1.5 plate of kung Pao chicken. Portions of them both were huge. I’d say 3-4 people could eat off of the 1.5 plates. Flavors were good not great. Dined in from out of town as we saw the place was highly rated. Would try other places before coming back. Owners were excellent and friendly. Parking is a bit of a mess and very limited.

Warren Mosser

If I could give this review 6 stars I would. It was hands down the best Chinese food I've ever had in my life surpassing Dragon Palace of Greenfield,IN. The the pork and shrimp dumplings are to die for. Everything top notch quality. Words can't describe how delicious and top notch quality this place serves up!

Jaely Pratt

Didnt like the food, everything lacked flavor. The water tasted like bleach. The service is mediocre, you have to go find the waiters in order to get their attention. I have been to way better and cheaper Chinese restaurants.

Maria Madrigal Zavala

The food is always amazing, its the waitresses !! that really makes the hole experience a bit bitter.. I really recommend this as one of my favorite spots for food..❤️❤️😋😋

Ivan Chz

Had to cancel a dish on our order because the waiter forgot about it. Slow and bad service.

Carlos Saz Hdez

I hate Chinese food buffets, the food is very grease but Ming Hin Cuisine change my mind about Chinese food, believe me this is a very good Chinese food. Excelent service, reasonable prices. I’ll come back.

Robert Gibbs

Absolutely loved the food and service. Our server was outstanding we had a group of vegetarians he explained some of the sauces co rained oyster and had them adjusted to fit their needs. Food was unique not typical Chinese fair. We went crazy over the cucumber appetizer. Thanks for such a wonderful experience.

Amber Shanise

I made a reservation for my family to dine at MingHin this past Sunday and I was incredibly pleased with the service we received. My younger brother had recently developed a peanut allergy and I made sure to include that info in my reservation details. When we arrived the waiter brought up the allergy issue before i had a chance to mention it. Our waiter took the time to discuss the menu with my mother and offered alternative dishes that were safe for my brother to eat (peanut- free). She was patient with us and very attentive. We had an enjoyable experience. The service we received was exceptional, the food was delicious and there were no allergic reactions. I will gladly patronize their establishment again.

Matthew W Wheeler

I haven’t had dim-sum like this in years... the BBQ duck and BBQ pork was perfection. The ingredients were fresh and all was beautifully presented... All-in-All a phenomenal experience...

Valeria Volante

We loved it! Took my parents there who came to visit from Europe and the food was superb! Great quality of products, steaming hot, amazing jasmin tea, friendly staff, great experience all together! We will be back again and again. Thank you

Karen Shyne

Yum! Service, meh. One of our dining companions is a vegetarian but all the "vegetarian" dishes had meat. The server told her she had to request no meat. Weird.

Easterfaye Paalan Calibugar

Food was good but service was bad... the server who gave us our soda when asked which one is diet nd which one is not... simply answered... i don't know nd walked away�� waiting time for the food took another 15 minutes... and the sad thing was we had visitors from out of the country... very bad experience�

Angelika Hyde

Hands down best Chinese cuisine to date.... clean environment, exceptional staff, and Thank you for the best fortune ��

Trisha Kadas-Cahill

Best place to eat in Chinatown. Food is reasonably priced and delicious

Jr Avitia

What a great restaurant. Keep up the great work. The service was fantastic and the place was beautiful.

Jose Parra

Excellent food at right price. One of the best Asian culinary experiences

Sirisha

The place looked lovely with their spacious seating and the bright lighting. The staff seemed friendly and had good recommendations for us. We tried the egg tools and the chicken in stick which were delicious. Their lamb on stick looked really good but didn't meet my expectations. However I liked their chicken fried rice much, but I would recommend anyone to mention it to be made spicy if they preferred. I also took their child milk tea with Tapioca which went well after the nice dinner. Overall it was a good start for my first Chinatown visit here in Chicago!

Sourabh Sirohi

Authentic Cantonese Cuisine We were directed to Ming Hin Cuisine rather than Chinatown for yum cha and we were very pleased with the experience. Lots of choices of delicious food. Those from Hong Kong were delighted with the fresh, flavoursome and authentic fare, the rest of us enjoyed it from a less knowledgeable perspective but delicious is delicious in any language.

Jignesh

we wanted to go to the china town in chicago, but found one nearby from our hotel which was also a chain from the china town. great dim sum and food.

Anjana S

Lovely place and excellent food. What I love about this place is their small portion of food that helps me taste diverse variety of food. I had been here with my friend about 2 months ago and now writing the reviews. We ordered for pan fried vegetable roll, egg yolk paste bun , veg noodles and egg yolk tart ( that's what I think it was called...pic with yellow inside a tart) I loved each and every thing I ordered here. And so much value for money. My best was the egg yolk tart though I do not know the name of dish. Soo crisp , just melts in your mouth and perfect sweet taste. Apart from the tasty food you get here, the staff are extremely courteous and helpful. Must visit and highly recommended!!! Yummmm food and good value for money. Not to forget the small portions that's pretty helpful.

Terrible. If I could give 0/5 I would because This was the worse meal I've had all year. Lao Sze Chuan had a long wait so we decided to go here - big mistake, we should have waited. The only good thing from the many plates we ordered was the complimentary cookie they served us at the end. We ordered, egg drop soup (tasted bland, lacked salt or any other form of seasoning), pork dumplings (batter was too heavy, dumplings was very greasy, and pork was questionably pork), unfried sesame chicken (gooey SWEET mystery chicken, not savory at all, sauce was like candy - very off putting), beef vegetable rice noodle dish (overly sauced but somehow way under seasoned and bland, noodles were over cooked and mushy, and meat was again very questionable and off putting). Staff was clueless and didn't speak English (Understand this is a restaurant in Chinatown, but i expect the staff to be able to minimally communicate with their customers). We usually bring home our left overs but here, everything was so bad, we couldn't bare to eat it a second a time. We will not back and I regret spending money here.

Best place for dim sum in Chicago. There's nothing else better. I tried all of them including the big dim sum boys in Chicago chinatown: Phoenix, Cai, Dolo, Triple Crown, etc. Ming Hin took first place. The roast pork is so good and their dim sum selection is very comprehensive filled with classic dishes like har gao and shu mai to creative ones like my fave pineapple buns and all kinds of different dumplings. They also offers various congees - standard pork and century egg to chicken and abalone. They're also fantastic for dinner with various fancy elevated Chinese seafood dish. This is probably the most successful restaurant in Chinatown. They kept expanding and buying space of their next door neighbors. Dim sum crowd and wait are quite crazy in the weekend. Just be patient and don't come starving already. The wait would be well worth it.

Niki - Jay Bougaard

I thought I liked this place but actually it smells weird and the dim sum is crap - it all tastes the same and with unidentifiable meat just thrown into vegetarian things. The crispy duck skin with bao is nice but they don't roast the full duck so you get one plate of skin and legs, and then this additional plate of weird duck stew made with the meat. Never again.

JB

Open late... Great dim sum at like 2 in the morning. Great ending to a fun day in the city.

Mark Anthony

While the weather might get you down, you definitely should hit up one of the top dim sum places I have ever ate at, including America , Hong Kong , and Taiwan . The name of this wonderful eatery is MingHin Cuisine .

Tim Denehy

Superb. An excellent meal. True Chinese food in the USA! Good service, excellent atmosphere and food that was fantastic. We had Chicken Corn Soup, absolutley delicious! Their Duck was superb, mouthwateringly so!!! Their General Tso's Chicken was flavor some and perfect! My wife has a delicate palate and the General Tso was not to spicy for her, I am a fire eater so I added asian chilli and the world was good :) The vegetables were perfectly cooked. So refreshing to have great Chinese food over the abundance of mediocre everywhere........

Tinkerbellmagic8

Dim Sum Luncheon. Had Dim Sum while I was in Chicago for a conference. This place is not bad. Certainly better than the Dim Sum places in Vancouver! Reasonably priced and tasty.

Techie

Fancy dining for a great price. I must say, we didnt expect much when we decided to eat here, but the ambience, service, food and the price just surprised us all in all. Service was a little tricky because we didnt know whether the other "uniformed" (they wore their own restaurant shirts, which i thought was a cool thing and way better than apron and white shirt) people was our server as well as the main server (who wore a different shirt). but they had fancy boxed napkins in the center of the table, which toothpicks and the seats were comfortable. The design/decor was very pleasing. This is our favorite dimsum place now! We can't wait to come back for more!

Brandon A Brunner

Great food. Be ready for bigger than normal dimsum portions when you order.

Skyler

Best Dim Sum in town, fancy place with modern style. MingHin is the lightest cleanest tastiest dim sum ever, the BEST dim sum in the city. You have to wait for it on the weekends as there's always a queue. It's a little pricier than average dim sum, but very user-friendly. There are no carts; you order from a menu. Everything arrives at once (and hot). It takes out some of the fun and authenticity.

JP

Best Dim Sum in Chicago. Extremely good made-to-order dim sum. We came by on a Saturday and the wait was about 25 minutes but well worth it. The four of us had an assortment of about 18 dishes and everything was a near textbook example of how to prepare each dish. The siu mai, for example, so often a soggy afterthought at other restaurants, were huge, plump, juicy and absolutely delicious. Every single dish was neither too oily nor too salty, as is often the case in other places. The crowd is noticeably young and stylish - mostly under 30

Minghin Restaurant - needs improvement. This restaurant had a great concept and serves great dimsum. Excellent atmosphere and interior. Again, like some chinese restaurant in Chinatown, they dont know how to keep it clean. The interior crome and glass are all dirty looking....hmmmm! Dinner is ok!! The waiters are not train yet! To charge those prices, they should really improve on service and clean well. Other than that it has lots of potential!!

Foodtiq

Amongst this popular crowd, MingHin has created its own place amongst these older players. It has revolutionized the dim sum eating scene in Chinatown as it has presented a fresh-approach to dim sum service. In particular, they have rolled out the dim sum carts and replaced them with a made-to-order offering. Pan-fried, steamed, or deep-fried, MingHin cooks up flavorful, well-priced, traditional, and pristine Chinese cuisine.

EatingForSanity

But this visit, we decided to hit up the late night spot, MingHin. This restaurant is located in the newer strip mall section of Chinatown and appears much more contemporary than the other restaurants.

Han And Diana

And if somehow you find these pancakes too boring and wish for more ethnic breakfasts that will equally delight and amaze you, mosey your way to MingHin in Chinatown. Order basically everything. We tried the beef brisket with rice rolls - a little claypot filled with rice roll dumplings in a thin, soy-based sauce with chewy bits of beef on bone.

Mary Jo Luppino

As you can imagine, not many places are open at 10:00 p.m. on a Friday night in China Town for Dim Sum, but we found Minghin. The atmosphere is a bit strange. You have some decently bright lighting, chandeliers, and glass cases with shells (or something?) in them while still getting a full meal for under $10. We ordered an assortment of things (no dim sum cart here) but my favorite was the pork bun.

Andrea

...Great quality food (but very expensive as well)~ The roast pork here is a must try (and don’t forget to dip in the sugar)..

Ifedthemonster

Dim sum for breakfast pretty well assures that your day is going to be off the charts. It’s kind of like rainbows and puppies and mermaids, pretty well perfect in and of itself.

Sian Mei

originated from a chinese custom, dim sum is linked to the tradition of yum cha which translates to drinking tea. based on dictionary.com, dim sum is defined as small dumplings, usually steamed or fried and filled with meat, seafood, vegetables. condiments, etc. dim sum holds very special position in my heart because the childhood memories it invokes - a dim sum session was always a special family event (with aunts and uncles as well) whenever we return to my mom's hometown, ipoh which happens to be the home of the best dim sum in malaysia. i remember when i was really young, i would always request for fish ball out of all the other menu options ( i was a sucker for that fish ball cos it was yummy !) but could never pick it up with my chopsticks ( i was young! ). my parents would make a fish ball lollipop with one of the chopsticks and i would run along ( not exactly ) and be happily gobbling it down. anywho, i digressed. i enjoy the occasional dim sum with friends in chinatown - it is

Baked Creamy Egg Yolk Bun (3.85 USD). I have just one question: WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ALL MY LIFE, Baked Creamy Egg Yolk Bun? If the previous serial-killer-all-caps question doesn't communicate just how much I enjoyed these buns, let me say plainly that these were TO DIE for. Outside, the dough was light and flaky and inside, the rich, sweet, custardy egg yolk filling was absolutely decadent. I would've ordered a few more plates of the Baked Creamy Egg Yolk Bun if I wasn't so conscious of the wreckage it would've done to my waistline (not to mention my cardiovascular system). D told me that women love this item. I think he was trying to imply something with that comment but I didn't care, I unabashedly LOVE the Baked Creamy Egg Yolk Bun!
