Ming Wah Restaurant

We ordered 3 entrees from Ming Wah last week. They didn't quote a price on the phone, and when I got there to pick up, they'd overcharged (in two cases, they charged us for the "dinner special" rather than the normal order, and instead of substituting fried rice for white, they charged us for a full separate order of pork fried rice).

The shrimp lo mein I ordered didn't have the usual, decent sized full shrimp. Instead, it was those 1/3-inch pink ones you can buy in frozen bulk for dirt cheap. (They still charged $8 for the entree the way you'd be charged for the better shrimp.) Our order of Szechuan chicken was the exact same thing as the cashew chicken, except they'd tossed a few cashews in. Otherwise, exact same sauce, exact same wilted, not-fresh veggies. Everything was gross.

Last, this might sound like whining, but it sort of summed up the experience: the only time I've ever ordered Chinese and not gotten fortune cookies. It's like they cut every corner they possibly could, without charging a penny less than much better restaurants.

Love's this restaurant! There lunch specials were amazing and you always got plenty to eat! I always had a to-go box to take home with me. If you go definitely try the Almond Chicken!
