Delicious food, excellent service, very nice atmosphere, friendly and joyful attitude. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Love all of their food and friendly service! Their Tom Yum soup is top notch with the right amount of heat.

You want chicken balls? They have them. That's not all. They have sweet and sour sauce to go with those chicken balls. They have an entire menu that can accompany those chicken balls. Everything is fresh. Did I mention they have chicken balls? read more

Had the Szechuan dinner with ginger beef. Szechuan fried rice was supposedly with chicken & shrimp but there was only 1 shrimp. There was a good bit of chicken though. It was good with decent wok flavour. There were sour bits due to the spicy flavouring being spread out unevenly. The ginger beef was not bad. It was crispy, didn't have too much batter & tasted pretty good. The spring roll was a bit dry, but sizeable & still decent. It also had pretty big slivers inside. read more

a couple of issues with this place 1) there are no utensils and they wont also ask you if you need one. so if you order take out, you have to ask them for utensils or else they wont offer it to you. 2) i ordered a lemon chicken, went there to pick it up and the old lady said she gave it to the other customer who ordered a chicken ball platter. so instead of correcting their mistake, she just told me that both are the same, same batter. but we all know that its not the same. if not for my limited break time and current state of hunger, i would have left but theres no decent food place in aurora that is open after 10pm so i had no choice but to buy it. read more

Mei Ling Chinese Food - a takeout container with rice, meatballs, and vegetables - Chinese Near Me - Aurora, Ontario

Always yummy! Always hot! A little pricey, but what isn't nowadays!? Super friendly, always busy!

Best Chinese food in Aurora! If you're in the mood for sweet and sour chicken balls, fried rice and fortune cookies, this is your place. This tiny little, mostly takeout joint serves fresh, tasty Chinese food for a good price, plus the lady who runs the place is super sweet. Definitely not great for dine-in but amazing takeout. The restaurant itself has a couple of small tables for a quick meal but I have seen full out families having dinner here so it is possible. The place is clean but could use a refresh if they're looking to attract more dine-in customers but it's totally fine for me as a takeout restaurant. Our favourite dishes are the lemon chicken, crispy ginger beef, the house special fried rice and the fried wontons. Whenever we've ordered from here, we find the food still hot out of the fryer and fresh tasting. The meat looks to be decent quality, I never get grizzly pieces or fat/cartilage. The food, although deep fried, doesn't taste overly greasy and there's no greasy after taste so I feel like they must keep the oil clean. Prices are so reasonable, you could feed a family for under $50, which is hard to do in the increasingly pricey town of Aurora. The lady who runs the restaurant is so kind and sweet, she's so busy all the time but is so efficient and still always has a smile on her face. It feels good to support a small business like this one. This is my go-to for Chinese-Canadian takeout and I will be returning again and again!! read more

First time ordering from Mei Ling. They had a website with menu which helped in deciding which dishes to get. It's during quarantine period and this is one of the places that hit all requirements for us. 1. Delivery - if you order over $25. They use their own driver which might mean they'll care more about being clean, safe, etc. At least we hope. 2. Contactless delivery including tipping - Everything including tip was paid beforehand. 3. Clean - Everything was in a container, which was inside a brown paper bag with staple and another plastic bag over it. 4. Time - Was promised 45 mins as the restaurant had just opened and they arrived within 40 mins. 5. Food was nice and fresh. It's not authentic Chinese food but honestly I haven't eat out in so long it was amazing! 6. Lady on the phone was super nice and friendly Would definitely order here again! Thanks Mei Ling! read more

Got takeout, beef, chicken, fried rice and soup. All dishes were tasty, nothing bad to say. General Tao chicken was a little dry to my taste, I like more sauce, but my significant other prefers it this way. The restaurant itself is small and outdated, but it's nice to see how busy they were all evening, food speaks for itself! We will be back for more read more

Mei Ling Chinese Food - General Tao Chicken, Beef with ginger and green onion, fried rice - Chinese Near Me - Aurora, Ontario

disgusting! We threw everything in the garbage. it wasn't fresh, the taste was off. My stomach reacted within minutes, severe stomach cramps and many bathroom visits. very disappointed, will never go there again! read more

Chinese food reviews are always tough because you have to look from the foodie angle or the casual eater angle Ok as the casual eater who is an office worker looking for lunch during the week then this is for you The usual $8 special offers an egg roll and fried rice with several specials I chose the General Tao Chicken which is the usual canadian fare and with veggies on the side was very filling amply portioned out I also added a Hot n Sour soup as thats my test food and it passed Hmmmmm well as a casual diner the mommy and poppy did a great job with a great meal is it real chinese food.??..no its canadian style chinese food so be happy to add hot sauce, soy or whatever to spark it up a bit. I have seen way to many people complain about the garlic spare ribs being garlicky...uh yeah its garlic spare ribs Actually a touch of salt opens the flavours up a bit many white caucasians will enjoy the fare as its what they can expect when eating out for chinese and the menu is geared towards that group As a foodie who has no qualms chowing down on pigs ear, rabbit and frog legs alla chinois then you may need to go elsewhere for that kind of stuff! i have eaten here several times and its always been a better choice than eating in a food court. The owner is nice and she must laugh as i grab the chinese newspaper to read (actually look at the photos) as she brings me a nice meal if i need to rate the decor then well its cosy and fun and its not the Four Seasons or Nobu but its the right decor for chinese food read more

Mei Ling Chinese Food - Hot n Sour soup is good for you - Chinese Near Me - Aurora, Ontario

Have been going to Mei-Ling for years, so starting a review of a place that feels like home is tough, but since the food here is as good as it gets for Chinese/Szechewan, it deserves one. First off, EAT IN!. The place is small, poorly decorated, but comfy in a weird way. Kitty, the wife of the couple who own Mei-Ling will immediately treat you as ifyou have been there a million times. She knows most people by name, as there is so many regulars, it would be hard to count. OK, the food, because at Mei-Ling its all about that. You must have, in no particular order: - Yet Ca mein noodle soup filled to the brim with chicken pieces, pork pieces, veggies, shrimp and yet ca mein noodles in a steamy, spicy broth that immediately evokes "the best soup I ever had" response.. - Calgary crispy ginger beef. THE best you've ever had in a sauce so good an order just of it would be appropriate. - Szechwan chicken..see my photo attached herein - Anhy of the noodle dishes, and ALL of their house specialties. Really the best local take-out Chinese food Ive ever had. When in Aurora, make a point to have lunch at Mei-Ling....and save your money. Most lunch's are $5.00!!! read more

The worst chinese food I have ever eaten! I paid $47.00 for three dishes to be delivered. The egg roll, and Soo Guy was super greasy leaving me sick to my stomach. I gave the driver $60.00 asking him if he had a ten dollar bill. After he got my cash he didnt want to give me my change. He asked me if I was only going to give him a $2.00 tip. I got bullied in to tipping him $7.00! He only gave me $5.00 back read more

I usually try not to give really bad reviews but I honestly think I got sick after eating here because the dishes were not cleaned properly. Would never return, service is not good and food is prepared badly. read more

The best chinese food that I've found in the Aurora area. Doesn't blow your socks off but let me know if you can find a better one. I find them fairly friendly and very quick to turn around a takeout order. I have never dined in there...only takeout. Never had a bad dish so will keep going back! read more

An absolute staple in Aurora yummy, fair prices, and the owner seems to know half the family's in town by their first name/ regular order?! Love that the fried food (like the chicken balls) are full of chicken vs. a tiny piece of chicken in a huge ball of dough... read more

This place is excellent! Authentic cuisine and great service. Small and unassuming. Highly recommended!

Best Chinese food in Aurora hands down. Not too salty or overly sauced - perfect flavour and everything is super fresh. No old oil taste. Love it!!!! Bonus - the staff is exceptionally friendly and polite. They truly value their customers and make you want to return for more! read more

Good Chinese food for Aurora. It's consistent. Good quality and taste. I've ordered for when family is over and just for us. All good. The lady running the front is friendly and remembers my name. She always gives my kids a fortune cookie when they tag along with me. read more

Ordered takeout this evening and wasn't impressed. The wonton soup was delicious and yes the veg. Spring rolls crispy, but everything else we ordered was a bust. Dry Shanghai noodles, spongy General Tao Chicken, the Veg. lo mein was super bland. Don't think we'll be ordering from this place again. All in all... wonton soup was delicious but spending close to $75 on crappy takeout is more than frustrating. Still on the hunt for decent Chinese food in North Richmond Hill. read more

I have never been disappointed in the quality, quantity, and the price of the food from Mei Ling. The owners are so friendly and nice and they go out of there way to make your meal perfect! The flavor and tastes of the different dishes are incredible. Not a 'run of the mill' take out restaurant. We are so happy to have them in Aurora, . But I do believe they deliver :) read more

Mei Ling's is my Favourite Chinese Restaurant, I like it better then the Mandarin. I have never had bad food or service. I travel from Mississauga just to have Mei Ling's. I cant wait till we move to Aurora. I will be there all the time. Keep up the GREAT food. A must to try. read more

Ate here a few weeks ago. Don't expect anything fancy. Decor's a little old fashioned but the booth seat's quite cozy. Food smells and tastes good. Singapore noodles were not greasy. Service is great. The husband's super nice and knows all the regulars. Took a star off just cause the lunch menu was kinda limited. read more

We have been going to this restaurant for years and have enjoyed the food and service. We arrived about 5.30 and there were 4 customers seated. The phone was ringing. We were going to wait for friends and wanted to sit in the window booth. There was 1 dirty plate and a glass on the booth table. I asked for the booth and she replied sit here another table an actually said I don't have time to clean up. She is always the only person working and not only serves the tables but answers the phone for take out and serves the take out customers. We asked for water and she served water to customers who came after in us. It took for ever to get served. We got our food, it was ok. A customer on leaving yelled get some help. It took forever to pay the bill. We will never go back and will not recomend this place as we have taken friends here for years. Jim read more

I'm Chinese, grew up with Chinese cooking and my mother is a very good cook... But this restaurant is pretty good! I love their wing so much! My boyfriend loves coming here and as do I now. The lady at the front is super friendly also! read more

Shrimp fried rice was the best I've ever tasted!! Good quantity of food and quite tasty. Will likely try Mei Ling again.

My go-to Chinese food delivery in Aurora after exploring around. Always fresher and a nice diverse menu when you want to venture off the standards. Friendly service too (even if delivery is a little confused some times). read more

Really enjoyed the food here. I tend to stay away from Asian cuisines other then sushi because of the lack of veggie options ( or if something is veggie, it has a a meat broth in it). But they had a pretty solid amount of choices. The food was prepared very quickly and tasted great! It was really cheap to eat there. It seems like a lot of people do take-out rather then sit-down. I did the take-out there once and is was prepared right on time. Definitely give this place a try; good food, prices and really quick. read more

Ordered for New Years dinner. We had to wait 90 minutes to pick up. The food was inedible, totally tasteless and meat was tough and chewy. We will not be returning read more

We truly enjoy the chinese food at this restaurant. The staff are friendly and efficient. Great for sit down dinner or take out. Will definitely go back again. read more

That lady was very very rude. We asked if they have the Chinese menu. She replied:"No. You guys cannot read English?" We asked if they have the Beijing black bean source noodles. She replied:"No. Just go to Scarborough. Don't come here." We decide to leave and told her the words she used was very rude. What she replied is :" Don't take my parking spot then!" We have been canada for more than 10 years and we never saw things like this. I notice she treat people differently and we will never go back again. read more

Good food, quick delivery and good prices. They are very good with substitutions when asked, and if they're too busy to do that they politely let you know. They have always prepared a good quality product and are VERY accommodating for allergies. If you like spicy ask for it. read more

Literally the best Chinese food in town. Have been going here for 20 years. Highly recommend!

Food is very tasty, and take out is very quick. The lady there was very kind and smiling, even late on a weeknight. Very pleasant experience. read more
