This place is quite exceptional. I live uptown and am rarely in Matthews, but used to frequent MingFu. The food, service, atmosphere were all excellent. We enjoyed the egg drop & hot sour soups, beef kung pao & Mongolian beef. Spot on! Our server was gracious and attentive. We will certainly return soon. read more

This places has gone down hill. They must have a different chef or something. The jumbo shrimp was overcooked and no flavor. Im a regular customer and the last few visits were not that good. read more

We stopped by for a late lunch/early dinner, and the parking lot was completely empty. We actually questioned whether they were open. We thought, "Well, at least we should get great service since no one else is here." Unfortunately, that was far from the case. I have a serious crustacean allergy, so before ordering, I simply wanted to confirm whether the crab was imitation crab. Our waitress seemed to have no idea what I was asking and, even more concerning, showed very little interest in the fact that I was asking because of a food allergy. Food allergies should always be taken seriously in a restaurant. I ordered the orange chicken, expecting it to be flavorful and tender. Instead, the chicken was so dry it was almost impossible to eat, and it tasted like it had been fried in old grease. I ended up sending it back. The service made the experience even worse. When our waitress originally brought the food to the table, there was absolutely no grace or care. She practically slung the plate onto the table and nearly dumped the entire thing. There was no apology or acknowledgment. After I sent the chicken back, she went into the kitchen, and we could hear her and the cook yelling back and forth. It was honestly wild and extremely unprofessional. Thankfully, we were the only customers in the restaurant. After that, our waitress essentially disappeared. We were never offered drink refills, and no one even asked whether we wanted a box for the leftover sushi. This was one of the worst restaurant experiences we have had in a long time. This place used to be great, which makes the experience even more disappointing. I would definitely recommend reading the recent reviews before deciding to eat here. Unfortunately, based on our experience, I can understand why the reviews have changed so much. Wish I could give zero stars. read more

everything at this restaurant was absolutely amazing. The egg roll was to die for it had the perfect filling. the egg drop soup and miso soup were delightful and I don't think I'll be able to eat fried rice anywhere else. Their rice is amazing and I love the vegetables that they add, They never have these inclusions anywhere else and their sushi was very delicious and fresh. read more

MingFu Chinese & Sushi - Chinese Near Me - Matthews, North Carolina

Not that I am a vegetarian, but I do mostly prefer vegetarian dishes. Mingfu had quite a few choices. Quite good.

Our first time trying mingfu and I feel like the menu has Soooo Many options of dishes that appear to be good. The crab ragoons were amazing. I ordered egg drop soup and it was good but I'm not a fan of corn in the soup. But not bad. The four happiness was very good as well, the seafood delight literally came out smoking very similar to fajitas. Very hot and fresh. Our server was very attentive and we didn't lack for anything. Not too loud inside. We can't wait till our next visit read more

Customer service was great did run into a small issue at the end my husband did find hair at the bottom of his plate and we brought it to the server attention she was understanding we was just informing her the manger was walking by she had a horrible attitude and rude she insisted it was me or my husband hair and the hair was straight I have dreads and he has a long red hair it was neither one of our hair type but just off that the manger made it a bad first time experience but alot of my coworkers talk highly about this place read more

We placed a small order for pickup. We were told 15 minutes. My husband waited 3 hours for food!! We understand it's Christmas so there would be a wait. Three hours, without an apology and no sign of a manager is completely unacceptable!! Our order was even missing items. A very unhappy customer on Christmas! read more

Restaurant did not meet my request for no duck sauce, add hoisin sauce. The food is mediocre & a place I wouldn't order from again. The sauce & food is VERY bland. This is really the worst Chinese food I've had. A total waste of money but, an even better learning experience. read more

Tonight, we ordered takeout from MingFu Chinese & Sushi. We had Hunan chicken, General Tso chicken, Kung Pao chicken, and Mongolian Beef. With the main entrees, we had the following additions: lo mein, white rice, brown rice and fried rice. As starters, we had egg rolls and pot stickers. Everything was delicious. Nothing to report on the ambiance, since we didn't eat in the restaurant. Service and delivery were excellent. read more

Decent option for Chinese in Charlotte! Been looking for some time. We ordered takeout and picked up the goods. The restaurant was clean and quiet when we arrived about an hour and a half till close. The hostess was kind and helpful. She made sure plenty of sauce (duck and soy) was given and even went to the kitchen to supply me with homemade in-house chili oil I'm obsessed with & requested upon arrival (theirs was great btw). For the food: I ordered a simple veggie lo mein. It was flavorful and not greasy like some can be. My boyfriend ordered the sesame chicken which was also very flavorful. Unfortunately, they forgot to put our fried rice in the bag that comes with the order and that was a bummer. We each tried a soup, him miso which was fine, but my egg drop wonton soup was extra tasty.. huge wonton portions with a creamy broth from the egg. The crispy bits on the side were plentiful but stale. Lastly, we ordered the crab rangoon app. The filling was excellent, not over/under stuffed and the cream cheese with crab was really tasty. The fried portion was a little soggy (not as crisp as I'd like) however, I think it maybe just doesn't travel well and would be better ordered dining in.. we'll see for next time because we'd like to try Ming Fu again! read more

One of my favorite take out Chinese food places in Charlotte. I stick to chicken and broccoli or chicken and mixed vegetables in the brown sauce. The chicken is always cooked well and never dry. The brown sauce has just enough saltiness to it. Their portions are family style, so I usually have enough for several meals. A lot of times I feel Chinese food can be too greasy and make me feel gross. This place always has me feeling full but good. read more

MingFu Chinese & Sushi - Chicken and mixed vegetables and Fried pork dumpling - Chinese Near Me - Matthews, North Carolina

This place is the best Chinese food in the area. The ingredients are quality, the prices are good, and they're consistent. I always get the chicken with black bean sauce (or garlic sauce sometimes), the crab rangoons, pork dumplings, and fried rice. We have also got the steamed vegetables and vegetable rolls. I order from here about once a week. read more

The food is reliable and affordable. Got all your must haves and the staff is nice. I would recommend.

I may need to come back and give this place a second chance. Came w a coworker and the prices for lunch during are fantastic. The service was friendly however the server could've done a more efficient job as I had asked for two sushis and usually the shrimp one is friend I asked her to find out and she just brought me the one that was now fried. I requested to switch and she brought the same again instead of asking them if I could change. In the end I was very happy overall. Also serves fought so loud we could hear it. My friends food look good. So maybe I'll try again another time. read more

Loud annoying noise from kitchen every time an order was ready. Gnats surrounding our food/table. Less than 1/2" size chicken bites in Kung Pao chicken. Will not return. read more

Visited MingFu on a Sunday night. Fortunately there was no wait but nearly every table was taken. MingFu offers Chinese, Thai, and even sushi - great if you're seeking a variety of Asian cuisines. The egg roll was good and had a nice crunch. The sushi had a good balance of options ranging from mild to spicy, and that's before I added wasabi. The menu is extensive. For you Seinfeld fans, as George Costanza once said, "Where there's Chinese food, there's leftovers." If you come for dinner, you will probably have leftovers - great when you want a second meal the next day! Come to MingFu for a great meal! read more

I love this place! I often order takeaway food, especially during lunch, portions and lunch prices are very affordable. On weekdays, their evenings are quite and you can have a good time with friends for a conversation and delicious food, I am often served by the same server, she's always very friendly and kind. Also, the owner of the restaurant herself always notices me and asks how I'm doing, it's very nice! I strongly advise you to try this place, you won't regret it read more

MingFu Chinese & Sushi - L. Three rolls - Chinese Near Me - Matthews, North Carolina

So, this review is based on a DoorDash delivery. My go to at any Vietnamese restaurant is their Crab Rangoon and Fried Rice. The Rangoon was delivered in a bag, with no sauce, so very disappointing. And, as for the Fried Rice, good, but more like Chinese Fried Rice rather than Vietnamese and very skimpy on the shrimp. Overall, okay, but not sure I would order these options again. read more

MingFu Chinese & Sushi - Rainbow Roll - Chinese Near Me - Matthews, North Carolina

What is this, a place for people without taste buds!? Wonton soup, spicy tuna roll, and egg rolls were very boring and lacked flavor, almost "hospital" food lack of flavor. I rarely use soy sauce or salt when eating out, but I had to do so on this occasion. Even a scoop of their wasabi couldn't give me a strange mouth feeling. Bland... (no covid here). Watered down. The chicken fried rice was however, very nice and much different than most local Chinese versions. Fresh, very egg and soy forward, umami nuanced on the backend, with just enough to establish a future craving. The best dish of those ordered. 100% enjoyed this one. I'll def try another entree and skip the other things. read more

Had delivery from this place. Everything we got was very spicy. This would not be an issue if it was mentioned in the dish description. Now have a house of hungry kids and a ton of food we can enjoy. Even the orange chicken is spicy!! read more

Everyone saying that the food is pretty much on par with cafeteria "hot bar" type food is dead on. I was really disappointed with everything about Ming Fu, except for the service. We ordered two sushi rolls, one fresh and one fried and the orange chicken entree. Everything fried we ordered was cold, which immediately makes me uneasy considering the temperature of the oil it's cooked in, meaning it either isn't fresh or has been sitting out for some time. On top of the temperature, the food was completely tasteless, we ordered our orange chicken spicy and it was evident there were no peppers included throughout. The service was good which keeps it away from being a complete one-star experience but the food is just downright bad. I'd recommend skipping this one. read more

Food good with a nice speed. Server sucely had an attitude & I had to end up doing her job for her. 5/5 food 1/5 service read more

I came for lunch on a quiet Monday after yelping to find a good lunch spot in downtown Matthews (which there are plenty of options). Settled on sushi, and was glad to find this gem. Good prices, fresh sushi, and WiFi to continue working through the day. I went for their 2 roll combo, which also came with soup or salad. The salad was a throw away...lettuce, cucumber, ginger dressing. All the norm - a typical sushi salad- nothing stand out about it. I went for the spicy tuna (my go to at any new sushi spot) and tuna avocado. The spicy tuna had a good amount of kick, a lingering heat, but not just that Siracha punch you can get some places. The tuna avocado was fresh and light, but equally full of both ingredients. I appreciate that the rolls were more fish than rice, and they were cut evenly. The service was good and the restaurant had a great vibe to it. When I'm back in downtown Matthews, I'd certainly check this place out again. read more

We ordered through DoorDash and our order was mixed up with a different order. We tried contacting DoorDash and their automated review of the issue was basically too bad and you will not be offered a refund. Fortunately, I called Ming Fu and they readily recognized they made a mistake. To correct it, they remade the order and delivered it to us. I love local companies that care about their customers. Thank you Ming Fu! read more

Fantastic restaurant! The vibes in the restaurant itself were quite nice, the food (especially the sushi) was very tasty, and the serving staff was attentive and friendly. I went on a casual date night here and couldn't recommend more! read more

Food is very good, but expensive $$$ for takeout. Do not order online, prices are even higher for some silly reason.

We love Ming Fu!! Their app makes it so easy to order take out, and I'm happier to use it and not pay more to places like Doordash or Postmates. Everything always tastes fresh, and is well packaged! read more

The staff (Gaga) was incredibly welcoming and helpful. I would definitely come back! I had Mongolian beef, very delicious and tasteful

Holy Sushi! Where have you been all my Matthews, NC living life!? I totally drove past Ming Fu all 7years I've lived in Matthews and Thank goodness I yelped "Sushi" to have this GEM pop up in my feed . Not only did I enjoy the Sushi , their Chinese menu items were far better than any other place nearby . Since I absolutely LOVE Asian food, this is going to be a frequent go to spot. Guess what, todays my birthday so I'm treating myself to more sushi here tonight . Order: Sesame chicken, egg roll, and fried rice -sesame chicken had a nice crunch , not chewy, the sauce was just right with the sweet and salty flavor. Their egg rolls , yuuuum! Also their standard fried rice side, is not just plain rice with soy sauce added for color . There was a nice veggie blend of peas, onions, carrots, and spices . Plain Lomein for the little one: nothing plain about this flavor ! Perfect for kids Dynamic Roll: sooooooooo delicious!!!!!! I didn't need the ginger or the wasabi/soy mix ... that's when you know the sushi is good! When you can eat it alone . Pink lady Roll- spicy tuna with salmon done right ! If you love Asian cuisine, and some Yummy sushi go here . The prices are priced higher but to me it's worth it for flavor and quality . Also the portion sizes were just right . I ordered takeout and picked it up and it was still worthy of 5 stars my first try . They even give quality chopsticks lol... I save mine . read more

MingFu Chinese & Sushi - Dynamic roll and Pink Lady roll - Chinese Near Me - Matthews, North Carolina

The food is always very good, fresh and hot. Mingfu has not disappointed me so far. They give generous portions also.

We received a recommendation to dine here and attempted to but ended up leaving after we were waited 20 minutes for a server to take our order and we were the only ones there. There were multiple servers that passed our table and acted as if we were not there. When a server finally can over, he acted as if he had something else to do. Not sure what was going on, hope this is not the typical way customers are treated. read more
