Traveling the country trying out different dim sum restaurants I was excited to go back to Chicago to eat at one of my favorite restaurants for dim sum. The initial plan was to go to chinatown, but with Chicago traffic, we decided to stop by one of the other MingHin locations. This location had ample parking, and the decor was more upscale compared to the chinatown location. Food was still excellent and authentic, similar to the original. You still order off the menu so the items come out fresh, and were surprisingly fast. If driving through Chicago and wanting to try one of the best dim sum restaurants in the country, definitely a place to stop by, and if not wanting to go through the downtown traffic, try this MingHin location. read more

I love this place. There are not many places that serve authentic Chinese dishes in the area. The best thing is that they serve dim sum! Gah! I love me some dim sum and den sum :) Totally worth a try even if you only eat orange chicken from Panda Express. Not ripping on it, I like it too! read more

I just ordered food for PICKUP. I paid almost $170. To my disappointment i was given fried rice with eggs instead of my order Fu-Kin Fried Rice, which was described as Fu-Kin Fried Rice 福建炒飯 (瑤柱，蝦，帶子，鴨，雞粒）（Dried Scallop, shrimp, scallop, BBQ duck, diced chicken） There was nothing there but scrambled eggs, $16.95 plus tax Although, the Fried Chicken, Roast Pork Belly and Tofu was good. The Fu-Kin fried rice erases all the good chow i had in MingHin. read more

We've been to MingHin in Arlington Heights three times now. I wanted to try this restaurants a few times to make sure everything was consistent prior to reviewing. The food is pretty good, good flavors, a big menu with options for everyone, and dim sum available all day, daily. The downfall is the poor service. It's ChinaTown in the burbs. If you are used to the lack of customer service and just base your experience on the food, they would probably get a solid 4 or 5 in my eyes. But the lack of customer service really drops the rating. On all three occasions eating at this MingHin location, all of the waitstaff were short and not forthcoming with suggestions or help. You had to flag someone down to get water or tea refilled. On two occasions they forgot to bring items that were ordered. We had to either cancel those items or get the food so late after the meal was basically completed. After multiple mediocre experiences, it's hard for me to recommend the restaurant. We might come back randomly for dim sum, otherwise we're going to other alternatives. read more

So I wanted to go to MingHin last time I was in Chicago but I didn't have time to do so. This time, when I did make my way to Chicago, I did go! For dinner at 6:30pm. Imagine my surprise when they had a dim sum menu with the Ipad :O Who doesn't like dim sum at night? Haha. Their siu mai was decent. It came in a set of 5. You'll like the pork taste (mwhaha). Country style dumpling was... different. I wasn't too much a fan of it but maybe others will like it. They put a lot of chicken feet in their dish and that was delish. Good flavor in there. Baby cuttlefish was excellent flavor-wise. They did have some sand in there :( Their pan fried radish cake had a good amount of radish inside, was surprised, and pan fried decently. Actually all their pan fried stuff was good. Their egg tarts was bomb and was one of the better ones I've had in a while! They also had a "meal"? I wanna say lunch special but it wasn't, where I got a Fu-jian fried rice for like $9. That one had a lot of ingredients, flavor, and there was a lot of leftovers because we got so full from all the dim sum. So why is it only 4 star? Because it's pricey lol. It can range from $3-$7 for their dishes, if I can recall correctly. It's a little bit more expensive that I am accustomed to but merp I also wanted to try the ginger chicken (half) for like $13-$14 but I was too full. LOL. Dim sum ftw. Service is decent, what you expect at a Chinese restaurant. And don't forget to get your free dessert here. Very roomy and the restaurant is aesthetically pleasing too (: read more

Food taste and portion are very good, for 3 people, we ordered 2 dim sums and 4 main meaty/seafood dishes, we were stuffed with a lot leftovers for around $120ish..we would be only half full at P F changes. read more

One of the few places to get good Dim Sun in the western suburbs. A little pricey, but good food and a good selection. Lots of staff available to help you out too. My only issues are that the place is often very cold, and the tables are poorly designed where your knees always hit the center support. Guess you can't have everything..., read more

I really hate to give MingHin two stars but the quality of their food is getting worse every time I go there...... I used to go to their Chinatown location a lot, then changed to this location after moving to the suburbs. I noticed the lunch and dinner dishes here didn't taste good. So I only went for dim sum. Sadly, last time I dined in for dim sum, the fish balls in the congee were spoiled. We returned it to the kitchen. Last weekend, I decided to give it another chance. I was so disappointed all the dishes that were brought to us were not hot... They were just warm. Also, the surface of the food was dry, like they had been exposed under air for an hour or two. The congee was way too thick and dry. All four shrimp dumplings had broken skin. The veggie was overcooked. I finally decided to write this review when I had a bite of the beef crepe (rice noodle roll). The filling tasted like uncooked raw sticky dough, no beef flavor at all. Everybody in my group had the same feedback for it and no one finished their beef crepe (rice noodle roll). If MingHin's management team or owner can see this review, please make changes. Bring your good food back as before. I can tell your employees are working hard to provide good customer services. Without them, this review would be one star... read more

Food was deliciously expensive compared to going to China Town in the city. Service was limited since they did not speak very good English, had difficulty communicating how you order from their menus and electronic machine. Food also came to the table very sporadically vs all entrees at the same time. Atmosphere in restaurant was a little chaotic but very clean. read more

I have been visiting this location for several years as it is somewhat more convenient then heading into the city and or Chinatown. I appreciate that there is a large parking lot so parking is always easy and free. During this pandemic I have still been eating here however it is rather disappointing because the menu is limited due to a lack of supply of ingredients for many of the dishes on the menu. What is still available is still the same good quality dim sum as well as main entrée or food items. Service here is efficient and fast as well as the ordering Process pre-and post pandemic. I would recommend for good local and authentic Chinese food with various offerings from Szechwan to Cantonese as well. read more

If there was a focus on speed, this Resturant would win top honors! If there was focus on food ( Dim Sum, other Chinese dishes), this restaurant will win top honors! The food, once ordered comes so fast, that i am still trying to figure out how to slow the service. I wish I could tell them, " please don't bring any more hot, steaming food, until we are done with what we have on the table! All I am saying, we feel rushed. The restaurant is big, clean and the staff is very focused on the customer. Every wait staff is helping to get you served! Great Job! read more

Dim sum, win some. I'm a fan of this location as it's definitely feels much cleaner and looks a lot nicer on the inside that your typically grimy Chinatown dim sum spots. Surprisingly the food here is decent and seems to be not as greasy which was nice. The only down side was having to wait almost 30 minutes for a table since we got here during primetime, but once seated it's pretty quick and efficient. The one thing I did notice about this location is how much space there is between each of the tables and while it was "busy", it's definitely not as chaotic as some dim sum spots I've been to. Prices are on par ranging from $3-$6 per dish and no charge for tea. Also this one seems to have a fully stocked bar right smack dab in the middle of all the action. Anyways, I'll keep this one short. Not a bad spot for dim sum if you find yourself wandering around the area like ourselves. 'Til next time, cheers! 267/365 read more

My friend and I came here for lunch two Friday nights ago. It's Lent so we only got seafood dishes. We ordered almost everything from the dim sum menu except for one dish. The one dish from the main menu was a fish fillet with yellow chives and rice. Thanks to our waiter for the recommendation! It wasn't the fish fillet we thought (breaded) but it was good nonetheless. From the dim sum menu: Shrimp dumpling with pea tip Homemade fish ball Fried squid turnover- fried goodness Deep fried taro puff- SAVORY with pork. We thought it would be sweet. Def better the day after since we were so full. Egg yolk paste bun Puffy egg custard tart- eggy in a good way Malay sponge cake- big portion and soft -some kind of veggie wrap- too much spinach lol There are some honorable mentions in there but everything was pretty great! A solid place for authentic Chinese food. read more

This place is a rare combination of good food and inconsistent service. When it's bad, it's horrible. I was there last week, at 8 pm. We were shown to a table right by the entrance. There were 2 open booths , and I asked to sit there instead. The lady that sat us said that this was the only available table, and the kitchen closes in 20 minutes. So we sat down and ordered. Five and ten minutes later, two parties came in. They sat them at the booths. Because the lady that told us that this was the only table available, and because I have seen that if you fill the survey at the bottom of the receipt and they don't like what you said they just print another one, I got up at the end of the meal and talked to the manager directly. I left my customary 15% tip because the food and the service were good - it was just the hostess that had been unpleasant. I returned today, with a party of 5. We did not order booze or drinks - just food. They added an 18% service charge that I have never, ever seen before for a party this size. I can only assume that this was because the manager remembered me. read more

The delivery was a correct amount of time, which is much appreciated!! The fried rice was yummy, but the stand out was the crab rangoons!!! Some of the best crab rangoon I've ever had - definitely order no matter what else you want!! It was filling, and got me two meals for $24 (including delivery/tip). Only downside- my fortune cookies sucked. Luck of the draw, I suppose. read more

Excellent food quality and will definitely return the next visit to Chicago. The restaurant staff for most part is friendly and offers good service. read more

Best food around. Can't go wrong with anything you order. I prefer the duck but the fried rice is excellent. Try a variety of dumplings.

The food was tasty. However, we were charged extra for rice. They should have told us upfront that rice was extra. 1.50 for a cup of rice. That's ridiculous. The quantity didn't correspond with the price. read more

First time went on my birthday, it was an amazing experience. I feel like we got lucky with our server, he knew english pretty well. When we brought up our food allergies he was very attentive and looked over our food to let us know if there were any contaminations. There were a couple dim sum dishes we couldn't have and he advised us right away to take it off. Amazing experience the first time. Food came out really fast and fresh. Only downside is there were so many little flies coming to our table! Second time was terrible, the food came out was ok but the short rib was pretty cold. We only ordered 3 orders of dim sum, a very small meal. We asked if a bowl of rice came with our short rib. The server, this time a different person, said no and we would have to pay for it. He was pretty rude to us after we asked, as if we shouldn't have. Then he kept insisting you want 2 bowls of rice?? I kept telling him no, just 1 bowl. He brings out a bowl of cold rice in a very small little bowl. Nice, the end it was $1.50 more for a very small bowl. Then he accidentally charged our card for a different table, of course it was a mistake. But the server wasn't very apologetic about it, he just said it's canceled and we will be money back monday. Didn't even hear a sorry from him. Me being chinese too, I can tell her didn't want to service us because of our small order on a Friday night... It wasn't even busy at all, I parked right up front at the restaurant. read more

Food is YUMMY!! Take out service was prompt and my order was correct! I always stop here when we are near Chicago OHare airport....

We just came back from a wonderful Father's Day dinner at MingHin. I have wanted to try this for a while now, but since it was finally my turn to pick a restaurant, this was it. We originally planned to go to Chicago's Chinatown for an authentic dinner but decided we did not want to fight the traffic. It was a great choice. Not only was this as authentic as the suburbs get, the food was wonderful and the service was excellent. We arrived at around 2:30 in the afternoon assuming there would be no wait. We were wrong - it was about 20 minutes. We gave our name and discussed if we wanted to wait or go elsewhere. When we realized we would run into this anywhere decent, we waited. I thought it went relatively fast, but the rest of my family said it was a longer wait than that. We were seated and immediately brought water and hot jasmine tea. Each(I of us was given a menu with Dim Sum options on one side and chef specials on the other. Confused, we realized the tablet sitting on the table was the full menu. My only complaint about the visit is each table has one tablet, so we had to each look through the menu, passing it when we were done. We ordered a variety of items. My plan was to order enough that I could bring home leftovers. And did that ever work out well. We had their version of Spare Ribs, which were small one-inch pieces in a mildly sweet sauce - it was not the usual sugary sauce you get at most places. It had a touch of sweet but was more savory. After that, we had a short wait. The waiter stopped by and we asked if rice came with the meal or if we had to order it separately. He must have thought we were complaining about the wait. He returned very quickly with bowls of rice for each of us. He told us there was a party of 20 they were just putting the order in for, letting us know there would be a short wait. He offered us our choice of appetizer from the Dim Sum menu. He even let us know which would come out the fastest. We took him up on it and ordered the pork buns. Just wonderful. Our food arrived one at a time, not all at once. First, they delivered the Kung Pao Beef. It was loaded with all sorts of vegetables, moist chicken, peanuts, red chili peppers, and jalapenos. We made it through about 1/2 of it when the Ma Po Tofu arrived. Yum. Lastly, about 20 minutes later we got the Udon Noodle with Duck. All were excellent. When the check arrived, I have to admit I was surprised by the amount. It was much less than I expected for such a great place. It was brought with Almond Cookies and Fortune Cookies. We talked a little more with the server when we paid. He asked what we thought, and we told him this was our first visit. He made sure to make us feel like we were very welcome to come back. He also said they have great lunch specials which we should take advantage of. We will. Our compliments to the wait staff, bussers, and chefs. read more

Came here with my parents who don't typically like to try too many new things, but with all the dim-sum dishes they had a ball. I also highly recommend the eggplant chicken dish, absolutely amazing! read more

This place was really nice inside and it wasn't that busy. I would definitely go back when I am close. It's a great place outside of Chinatown to get some dim sum. The staff was great and attentive to everything we needed and wanted. The dim sum was very good. Most were made really well. The flavors were good. The dim sum seemed like it was fresher or cleaner then in Chinatown. I don't know if it was because we got there when it first opened and we got the freshest dim sum for the day. The dim sum that stood out the most were the fried tarot dumplings. They weren't greasy like in some places that make them. The flavor was great and it was really creamy on the inside. read more

I had heard some great things about this place and finally took teh time to check it out. Glad I did - refreshing to see some quality dim sum in the northwest burbs! I went with three items and enjoyed each of them. The fried shrimp rolls and the fried chive dumplings (pot stickers) were both good. But my favorite was the authentic fried rice - I ordered the Yang Chou Style and it really hit home. Cooked the way fried rice should be - not soaked in soy sauce the way it's been served in most American Chinese restaurant for years. I'll be stopping by this place again and look forward to trying a few more different items on their menu. read more

I love Dim Sum and didn't know it was so close to me. I'm used to going to Chinatown, but this place was very good. All the dishes were done well. It was hard to choose only a few. We went on a Friday night and got seated right away. I can't find anything to complain about. We only had the Dim Sum so I can only comment on this. read more

If I could give zero Stars I would, this place is a fraud! Ordered through Grubhub, seafood fried rice, and Fu-kin fried rice. Also egg rolls and shrimp dumplings, the food came late but that's not the issue, the seafood fried rice had zero seafood, there were some invisible shreds of shrimp that you had to find with magnifying glasses, no site of the Squid or scallops! Basically just plain tasteless rice! $14.95. The Fu-kin is supposed to have seafood, duck, chicken, it came plain but a container of Juyce with some bits and pieces of chicken and beef. Absolutely disgusting! Called the restaurant, they wanted pictures! I sent them! They agreed to remake the Seafood rice but I would have to order through Grubhub and pay! Worse experience ever! Their food is a joke and they don't get it! read more

MingHin Cuisine - Seafood fried rice? Do you see any seafood anywhere?? - Dim Sum Near Me - Rolling Meadows, Illinois

This IS the place for Dim Sum in the Chicagoland area. There's one in Chinatown, downtown, near north side, Rolling Meadows and Naperville. The ones in the suburbs offer a 20% off offer, Monday thru Friday from 2:30 - 5:00 pm. The dumplings here are fresh and served steaming hot. You have to try a small dish of every type to get the full experience, so bring a bunch of friends to sample a larger variety. Besides Dim Sum, they also have dishes that other Chinese restaurants offer. On dish we tried and loved, but is hard to find on the menu is the Beef Tenderloin in sweet Sake sauce. The dish comes out in a clay pot and the Beef is cooked to perfection with onions. The sweet Sake sauce is on the sweet side, so it's good to mix it with rice. We highly recommend this dish. read more

MingHin Cuisine - Dim Sum Near Me - Rolling Meadows, Illinois

Oh, this place. The atmosphere is classy and beautiful. The food is really good. The service tends to be prompt and efficient, if not warm - except on Father's Day, when it was terrible. On that occasion they told us on the phone that they "don't take reservations," but when we arrived they asked if we had made a reservation. At that point they told us it would be a 20 minute wait, and after about 1.5 hours of waiting we gave up and left. If you can make it to a table and get your food, you will be happy. Our favorite dishes include the stir-fried baby bok choy with roasted garlic, Mongolian beef, General Tao's chicken, and short rib with honey sauce (from the dim sum menu). The crab rangoon and egg rolls are also good. If you are a fan of bubble tea smoothies, make sure to give one a try while you are here as they are freshly made at the bar. Finally, the almond cookies and fortune cookies at the end only serve to sweeten the whole package. read more

This is our first time at Ming Hin in Rolling Meadows. We've been to the 2 locations in Chicago several times and have always enjoyed the dim sum there. Unfortunately, the dim sum here in Rolling Meadows wasn't as good as the other locations. We visited the Rolling Meadows location on a Thursday night. What we liked: the avocado smoothie with boba was made fresh and tasted great. The fried shrimp roll was crispy and not too greasy - also good. We ordered the beef/noodle entree and that was pretty good. The beef was soft and we asked for the noodles to be extra crispy and they followed through on our request. Everything else tasted different than what we are used to or odd. Maybe it wasn't as fresh as we're used to? Even our kids who would devour orders upon orders of the shrimp dumplings, barely finished 1 order between the 2 of them. The short rib honey sauce was really bad. It was chewy and gamey. We ordered ong choy which they were out of so opted for the Chinese broccoli instead. It was ok but not worth $10.95! Overall, our experience was sub par due to the quality of the dim sum. We will go to the other locations from now on. read more

MingHin's expanded its reach beyond downtown Chicago! I enjoyed the food here even more than the one in Chinatown. The establishment is bigger and grander, giving the traditional Cantonese "jiulou" (fancy restaurant) feeling. The staff was friendly and prompt, yet not very helpful. We got the fried Shrimp Roll (yummy but too tiny); BBQ Pork Crepe (great portion but the crepe felt weird, not too smooth); Pan Fried Pork Vegetables Buns (highly recommend!!!); and 2 soups, Egg Drop and Fish Fillet (recommend!). I was satisfied with the food, yet felt that it could be better, just like the Chinatown location. I still give it 4 stars because the portion and price! read more

Hard to find and hidden off the old main drag of Wentworth, tucked in a small shopping/dining complex - this place is a jewel! We wanted authentic dim sum and this hit the target. We were seated quickly and given the dim sum menu plus an iPad to order main dishes, appetizers, drinks, hot pot, etc. We ordered a few savory dumplings and bbq bao that were delish, as well as some sweeter options such as the water chestnut cake, egg tart and lotus buns. I wish we had ordered a green veggie which wasn't offered on the Dim Sum but may have been offered on the regular menu. We really carbed-out with all of the dumplings and bal - good thing there is a lot of great shops to walk it off after! What I didn't realize was that my husband and daughter ALSO 2 orders of crab Rangoon and ordered 2 main dishes - oxtail hot pot and Kung Pao Chicken. It was a ridiculous amount of food but we took tastes of it and took it home to eat for lunches and dinner today. Decor was modern, vibe was energetic with staff zipping by delivering steam baskets and hot pots. Staff was attentive - once we had an empty dim sum plate someone else came by quickly. Hot tea hit the spot on this cold January day. We will definitely we back! read more

Note that I'm biased because I'm not a fan of Chinese food normally, but my experience here was far from stellar. My family made the mistake of getting a reservation on the same day as Chinese New Year, so this place was packed. The service was of course thus super rushed and not very friendly. We ordered a variety of dishes, but they had run out of pretty much all the main course dishes. We had to settle for the unwanted dishes on the menu, so we all left pretty unsatisfied. It's a very brightly lit restaurant and pretty authentic, but I will for sure not be coming back any time soon :/. read more

It is tough to find an establishment that offers good Dim Sum. I've read some other reviews and what bothers me are those who do not understand Dim Sum or 'It's all about keeping food fresh.' If a restaurant happen to run out of s certain item, it's a good thing. It just means you need to get their sooner before they run out. Do we really want to give 5 stars for frozen items??? So here's my take on this restaurant. When you first walk in, the place is bright which really lights up the place. I enjoy their decor. The bar is in the main area when you first walk in and would suggest looking around. You'll notice little pocket seating areas for you groups of six. The food is awesome and that say's alot coming from an Asian person. The items are fresh and not overly salty. Everything is seasoned just right. At each table, there is a tablet, which you can place your order for Chinese entrees. If you wish to order the Dim Sum, they also have the traditional paper menu to mark the items you would like order. Here is a little tip for those who happen to complain about the service. Unless you're dining at an Americanize Chinese restaurant, ie. Panda Express, PF Chang's, or etc, food quality trumps over service. If you're not familiar with Chinese food, I would suggest going with someone that can help you understand the menu. We ordered the following during our visit and would highly recommend it to others: Healthy Stir Fry Mixed Vegetables Crispy Chicken, Short Rib w/Honey Sauce Salt & Pepper Shell on Shrimp Beef with Peapod Seafood with Tofu Soup Deep Fried Pork Dumpling Stir Fry Stick Rice Overall, this place is awesome. read more
