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.

“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.”

Customer Review Summary
Reviews are split, and the chicken curry is the most mentioned dish. Two reviewers found it slightly thick and gloopy, though one liked the chicken quantity and friendly staff. Chicken balls drew complaints of soft batter, dry chicken and gloopy sauce. One reviewer reported crunchy, hardly cooked noodles and beef that was very chewy, with mostly onion in the special curry.
