About Ming Wo
On Lyndhurst Rd in Burnley, Ming Wo is a Chinese takeaway at number 12. The kitchen puts its special curry prawn balls front and center, with salt and pepper ribs and salt and pepper chicken wings as the other seasoned starters and sides. Pancake rolls and fried rice round out the lighter side of the order, while barbecue pork with green peppers in black bean sauce gives a fuller main. Chips and rice are both on the menu, and curry sauce is available to go with them.

Customer Review Summary
Chips come up most, and reviewers split on them: one calls them a good size portion and another says quite good, while others found them undercooked, or, as salt and pepper chips, just chips with a single chili and a few bits of onion. Positive reviewers describe delicious food served fast at reasonable prices, with polite phone service and a polite delivery driver. Complaints about the cooking run wider: salt and pepper ribs and chicken wings overcooked and tough, pancake rolls greasy and soggy, prawn balls spongy and fried rice undercooked. One reviewer counted only about five small pieces of pork in the bbq pork with green peppers in black bean sauce, and another said the fish and chips arrived with shop bought fish rather than the advertised haddock or cod. One family returned a curry sauce that tasted burnt, and staff would only refund the sauce without smelling or trying it.

“Used to go to this Chinese takeaway a lot, not eating takeaway food so much these days but just fancied bbq pork with green peppers and chips, chips were of a good size portion and tasted ok, the pork with green peppers in black bean sauce was ok, but for one thing, about 5 small pieces of pork, either I was very unlucky or there is a money saving exercise going on at ming wo, unfortunately it was dissapointing enough to make me not want to go again,”
