Ping's Place — Restaurant in Duluth

Pretty great food. It's a little expensive but this is on a whole other quality level than fast food. It's also not the same formulaic Chinese food restaurant that you see everywhere with the exact same menu. This is the real deal. The dumplings are on par with those that I've had in China. They need to put another location in Greenville on Woodruff Rd so that I can eat this amazing food more often.

It's a little intimidating for someone to order who isn't familiar with what Chinese food tastes good. I suppose most of their patrons are Chinese so they know what they want. I do also but most people would be lost. This is one area they could improve. Menus should be provided which should provide a detailed description of exactly what things are. For the most part you're pretty safe just choosing something because I've only rarely had authentic Chinese food like this that I...

The food was very local and authentic but the customer services was bad. I ordered salty soy milk, twisted cruller, and stinky tofu for dine-in but I couldn't finish it. So I asked the lady behind the counter if I could get a box for the unfinished food. Her reaction was rude and shouting at me saying why I would need a box for my food as I only ordered twisted cruller. I told her “I ordered stinky tofu. I need the box for it.” She then replied with an unpleasant face: “you ordered stinky tofu?” (and handed me a box without any apology) I was like EXCUSE ME??? This is how you handle your business and customer services? I will continue to come in the future just for the food itself but I figure that I need to leave this review so you can have the opportunity to educate...

I do have to say they don't have much food on the menu for you to choose, however, all food they provide are fabulous! Cruller, beef wrap, egg pancake (not American style) are something you must try! I personally doubt one of the reviews because 1. they charge you extra 4% which is true, but ONLY if you use credit/debit card and they typically tell you ahead before charging you. 2. I never compare price, so I don't know, but as long as they have the price listed, then I don't see anything wrong with it. Example, the cruller from the one next to it, it's too firm to me, then why I get the firm ones with saving little extra even though that's true? 3. I don't know other people, I never had stomach or diarrhea...
