Review Ming's Steam Boat

Hanmo Li

Covid times: only doing outdoor dining and takeaway food - we can still eat out safely 🙂. Takeaway Lunar New Year's Eve dinner at home from Ming's Steam Boat. Delicious food! . Crispy pork hock: soooo good! . Steamed free range chicken: a must have for lunar new year. This was really nicely done. Super tender and savoury 🤤🤤. . Kung po prawns: pretty spicy and delicious! The prawns were soooo tender 😍😍. . Egg whites with seafood: their version of this dish! Unfortunately the egg yolk was solidified by the time the food got to our home, but it still tasted great! Nice flavours 🤤🤤. . Spinach with two types of eggs: typical dish that was nicely done! . Fried rice with seafood and egg white: another typical fried rice dish. A little bit on the bland side but still good.

Great experience to do a hot pot. Good with two people, even better with a group. The meat, seafood, veg dishes etc you add on are are reasonable sizes and well priced so you can get a good variety without having to over order. Heaps of options, service is fine and overall great experience.

Ordered almost aud150 takeaway today through phone and the person was either playing Nintendo while taking orders or couldn't understand Chinese/ english. Am extremely disappointed with what we are getting upon unpacking our containers with at least 3 of the dishes weren't even half full with the salted egg yolk pumpkin barely enough for 2 adults. If you are on a strict diet and feel like getting ripped off then this place is highly recommended, otherwise money will be better spent on other eateries who are struggling and genuinely wanting to earn customers satisfaction.

Granted only been here 1 but constantly order takeaway. Nothing terrible about this place, it's got decently priced food for decent quality.

Found this place on the app and decide to give it a go due to its rating. Not disappointed, service average, decor average food excellent!! We ordered dumplings as entrée a sweet and sour pork and I ordered an prawn, scallop and egg dish. The dumplings were forgotten, but the egg dish was light fluffy and sublime, as was the pork, which I think was done in a Shanghai style and was excellent! So if your worried about communication, service and decor well maybe not, but if it's all about the food, we'll definitely pop in and enjoy!

Had steamboat there but the sauces are disgustingly unhygienic, and ordered a dish of intestines with chilli and found a cockroach inside, worse place to eat

With Chinese food in Australia, sometimes you get quality and genuine Chinese food, and sometimes you get the knock off suited for the typical Australian's taste version. Mings Steamboat is the former, fortunately. A simple restaurant closer to Whitmore Sq than Chinatown, Mings Steamboat is almost a hidden gem in its own right. The dishes are many and varied, and they taste good too. Don't be afraid to try the specials on the boards even if they do sound a bit weird. Step out of your comfort zone and don't just opt for the usual honey chicken - there's so much more. We got the chicken soup which felt like a good cleanse - the ginseng and dates really gave the soup a rich flavour. The soy ginger ribs were a bit too thick and sweet and the roast duck might've been 70% bones, but they were still good nonetheless. Don't miss the green beans with XO sauce, which was a clear standout.

This place opens till late which is really good as they are not many of it around. Decent Chinese food and portions are pretty reasonable as well. Favourites are ribs with vinegar, pumpkin with salted egg yolk, pig trotter and deep fried stuffed tofu. The herbal tea and sugarcane are excellent too.

Johnny Tiong

Generous servings at very good pricing. The small serving of soup shouldn't be taken lightly at all. We had to take away the rest for another meal. Options of ala carte and steamboat. Wide variety of Chinese/hk dishes. Will come visit to try more dishes.

Daniel Low

The food at Ming steamboat was simply amazing! Great selection from steamboats to clay pots and many different styles of Chinese cuisine. I'll also like to take time to compliment the trainee called marcus for his amazing service, he was friendly and attentive which really added to my dining experience.

Sam Twelftree

Fast, friendly and helpful staff. The seven of us got lucky and got the last large round table in a very packed and busy restaurant. We went for the steamboat experience which was interactive and fun. Broths and all chosen ingredients where fresh and tasty. A no frills restaurant serving amazing steamboat.

Handeng

Best steam boat restaurant in Adelaide. Nothing fancy, straight forward ordering system with good variety and reasonable pricing. Only minor let down is staff efficiency and inconsistencies in their cooked foods I.e. Stir fry dishes

Lizzy Tan

Best steamboat!. In my own opinion, I think this the best steamboat in adelaide. The handmade fishballs is nice, just a little too pricey.

Ymmas

Deep fried pumpkin stick. I love coming here for a late night meal. They open til late and you never have to wait too long for food to come out. If you feel hungry, I recommend you come here. Food is standard and in a good size, at a cheap price too. Great place for chinese food.

Despite its name, I usually come here for their dishes rather than steamboat. Don't get me wrong, I've tried both but rather make my own steamboat at home, which will be a lot cheaper as well. As for why I have their dishes, well they're just absolutely delicious! Not to mention decently priced as well. My usual order are: deep fried pork knuckle, which is always well cooked, melt off the bone meat with crispy skin; triple egg spinach, which doubles as a soup dish (although I have to say, the 3 eggs that is meant to be in the dish has their portions cut, which is really unfortunate) and lastly the salted egg prawns (need I say more). Overall, have always loved their dishes there. Be sure to down it with their homemade sugarcane. I do hope they maintain the quality of their food and I will continue to have many many delicious meals to come! :)

Great value, stocks were tasty- we had a salty pork and the chicken 1/2 and 1/2 steamboat and all the items we added were nice and fresh and flavoursome

Try the Dishes Instead of Steamboat. Don't be fooled by the name, Mings is about a lot more than steamboat! Get your chompers into their salt and pepper pork - a whole pork hock coated in tasty spices and deep fried to crispy on the outside, tender on the inside perfection. Get in my belly. Awesome accompanied by a massive jug of sugarcane tea.

Fish

Great place. Staff ate good and food is top quality. The steamboat is amazing. Beef, chicken, prawns, wontons, pork balls with spinach, cabbage and bok choy. You can't go wrong. The mix your own sauces are also great fun and tasty! Highly recommend getting along and trying for yourself!!!

Ian Steele

Good fun. Great place to eat for 3 - 6 people, as you share the steamboat. Good service, friendly staff

Fourbites

Great Food, delicious sauces and you cook everything towards your liking! Great place to head out to on cold days!

Danielle Frankish

Novelty Factor. My partner does not like this place and yet i've managed to get there a second time. Yes, you cook your own food and it is a VERY messy experience with small plates of food everywhere and soaked noodles slopped all over the table. I love the novelty factor and enjoyed laughing over the experience with close friends.

Ming's Steamboat is located near Chinatown. This restaurant not only allows you to have steamboat, which is a hot pot where you order dishes and you cook yourself in a hot broth of your choice, but also order dishes to share. This time we decided to order from the alacarte menu. The dishes were ordinary, nothing really stood out.

Andrew Lord

Service was friendly and helpful, without going overboard, and the decor was pretty standard Chinese diner laminex and red paper lanterns, but one point to watch… With all those soup bowls bubbling away, even on a cold night it got quite steamy and humid, bordering on uncomfortable in there, so take a towel, strip off and have a sauna as well.

Ling Tan

The spicy pork ribs were delicious and tender. Maybe a bit pricier than other restaurants nearby for what it was.

Gninethree

and the soup base was pretty tasty but dont get tricked! Because if you picked the double base soup like us- you ended up having to pay for 2 soups (which came up to $26) but if you choose only one base, you only have to pay $13. It's not like since you only have 1/2 pot one flavour and 1/2 pot another, you pay for only one. LOL! Ming's Steamboat 301-303 Morphett Street Adelaide SA 5000 (08) 8410 0188

Chilly nights are best spent with your mates hovering over a huge steaming pot of broth and reaping the rewards of cooking your own food. Selecting our meats, noodles, veggies and stock broth on their clipboard menu, a variety of sauces, hot pot and some of our ordered ingredients. We opt for a half and half pot with 2 different soup stocks: ‘special home made chilli hot pot soup base’ and ‘fresh tomato pork ribs hot pot soup base’.
