Ping's Szechuan Bar & Grill

I've heard Pings referenced for decades but only just tried them a few months ago. They're delicious and still manage to be reasonably priced in this scary economy of overpriced everything. Their dining room has been closed down for a couple years beginning with covid, I believe. I think they continue to keep pick up and delivery only because of the neighborhood its in. It's shady. Too bad because the interior looks fun and it would be nice to sit and enjoy the meal fresh on plates with hot tea. The owner said Pings is up for sale, sadly for us....so go try it while you can. Order by phone then go to side door where they grab cash or credit card and come back out with food.

Ping's came highly recommended to us and did not disappoint!!! They have been in business for over 30 years so they know what they are doing. We got food delivered and every step was great. The ordering was easy and the person that helped us on the phone was so nice and patient with our questions. Delivery was fast. Food was delicious and portions were large so we had leftovers. We had Hot and sour soup Mu Shu vegetables Chicken fried rice Szechuan chicken Everything was delicious and the experience great. When we come back to Minneapolis we will eat at Pings for sure ! You should too!

Had a great experience ordering take out from Pings! The person who answered the phone and gave us our order was incredibly nice and the order was ready quickly. She remembered who I was when I called to pick up the order and made nice small talk while I signed the bill. The food was very tasty and we got extra curry crab rangoons in our order. Overall great experience, looking forward to when they open their dining back up.

Pretty good Chinese food. An excellent option if your attending the convention center, just across the street. I love hot and spicy chicken and Pings and ok heat to it.

Stopped by Ping's one night but they only do take out orders. Tried their egg rolls, kung pao chicken, beef chow fun, and shrimp fried rice. The egg rolls were probably the best of the four items. Very good and full filling inside and a good crunch shell. Though the shrimp fried rice was our best entree, it came very dark, nearly soaked in sauce. Taste-wise it was good but the dark color was a little scary. Good pieces of shrimp in the dish.The beef chow fun was also very dark. The noodles were somewhat over cooked for my taste but the beef pieces were good. Again, a little too much sauce for my taste.The kung pao looked promising but we quickly noticed several things. Hardly any spiciness and was a bit bland. Could have use more veggies for crunch. Large chicken pieces. The dish could have been better...not much pao to it all. Panda serves a much better kung pao and that's not saying much.Ok food but not high on my list.

Got carry out from Ping's last night Spicy chicken was awesome, egg roll was excellent, owner came out and gave me my carry out and was very friendly Would recommend and would eat again

Food is always excellent. High quality ingredients prepared fresh. Since COVID they only do takeout, it's some of the best Chinese in town.

My wife and I came to Minneapolis to visit our son. I wanted Asian food and he said Ping's was supposed to be really good. I called to place an order and when the person answered the phone she rudely said "hold" then I hear her complaining "oh my God people keep calling, hanging up and calling back." Then she hung up on me...so I called back thinking it was an accident. Same person answered the phone, same rude response. So this time I did hang up but certainly won't call back. People who are that rude don't deserve my hard earned money.

I have loved this family run place for 20 years! I moved to Phoenix and can find NOTHING comparable to my family's favorite dishes here. Their calamari is unbeatable, followed by orange chicken, sesame noodles, and Singapore noodles! When I'm back for a visit I order at least 2 times before I leave

Love Ping's, I have been coming here for 20 years. We live in the burbs and come to Ping's every few months because of the quality. We hope they will open their dining room again soon, it was recently closed (you can still get take out or delivery) due to COVID safety. This picture was from the last time we ate at Ping's.
