About Mings Court
On Wood Rd in Derby, Mings Court is a Chinese takeaway open for collection only in the evenings, Thursday through Sunday, with Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday closed. Orders are placed on a walk-in basis at the counter. The menu runs through the standard takeaway lineup, including chicken curry, chicken balls, sweet and sour chicken, and prawn balls, with the curry sauce coming thick rather than thin. The shortened week and evening-only hours shape the schedule for anyone planning a visit, so timing a stop means working around the four open days.

Customer Review Summary
Chicken curry draws the most mention, with some praising it alongside chicken balls and friendly staff, while others found the sauce thick and gloopy with tough beef and few prawns. One reviewer describes noodles that were crunchy and batter that was soggy, tossing the order and worrying about food poisoning. Another calls chicken cooked like cardboard, a sharp drop from previously reliable weekly orders.

“Wow that was wrong in so many way. Let's hope i dont get food poisoning. Waste of £17.20. As went in bin. Noodles hardly cooked very crunchy.. pawn balls. Plenty didn't look right but the batter was very soggy. Personally I think you need reporting and checked out. All went in bin.”
