Ming's Asian Bistro

I am flabbergasted at what my experience was today. My mother and I went to the MING and ordered lunch. We both ordered hot and sour soup and chicken and broccoli lunch to share. We got our food and we started eating the soup and immediately found it was not like it normally is and was way to spicy hot to even eat. I didn't want to be a person to complain but I kindly told the waitress the problem we had with the soup not being edible. She went to the boss and told him the problem and when she came back she said she couldn't take the soups off our receipts for whatever reason and then said she was told she could bring us egg drop soup to mix in with the hot and sour. We told her no we didn't want that we just wanted the soups removed from our bill. She said she couldn't do that. Then proceeded to bring us egg drop soup to supposedly mix with the hot and sour. And they were so full we wouldn't have been able to mix them together anyway! Why on earth couldn't they just remove the unedible soup from our bill? I just don't understand. Instead waste the egg drop soup and still be out of the money for that. Honestly I've had even more terrible experience at this restaurant in the past but normally pass it off because I love the food. This time I couldn't not leave a review. I will not be going back and I will let everyone I can know about my experiences.

Buffet is still not open. We dined in and it was good. One selection off the menu was more than enough to fill us up.

I have eaten at Ming's twice in the last week. I am thrilled they are open for dine-in menu orders. There is finally good Chinese food in Houghton again. My most recent order included Crab Rangoons, Shrimp Lo Mein, and General Tsao's Chicken with steamed rice. There's a bit missing from each of the photos because we were hungry and wanted to taste the food as soon as it arrived. Delicious! And plenty for leftovers. I hope the buffet will also eventually return.
