Mei Ling Chinese Food

Shrimp fried rice was the best I’ve ever tasted! Good quantity of food and quite tasty. Will likely try Mei Ling again.

My go-​to Chinese food delivery in Aurora after exploring around. Always fresher and a nice diverse menu when you want to venture off the standards. Friendly service too (even if delivery is a little confused some times).

Ordered for New Years dinner. We had to wait 90 minutes to pick up. The food was inedible, totally tasteless and meat was tough and chewy. We will not be returning

Chinese food reviews are always tough because you have to look from the foodie angle or the casual eater angle
Ok as the casual eater who is an office worker looking for lunch during the week then this is for you
The usual $ 8 special offers an egg roll and fried rice with several specials
I chose the General Tao Chicken which is the usual canadian fare and with veggies on the side was very filling amply portioned out
I also added a Hot n Sour soup as thats my test food and it passed
Hmmmmm well as a casual diner the mommy and poppy did a great job with a great meal
is it real chinese food… no its canadian style chinese food so be happy to add hot sauce, soy or whatever to spark it up a bit. I have seen way to many people complain about the garlic spare ribs being garlicky… uh yeah its garlic spare ribs
Actually a touch of salt opens the flavours up a bit
many white caucasians will enjoy the fare as its what they can expect when eating out for chinese and the menu is geared towards that group
As a foodie who has no qualms chowing down on pigs ear, rabbit and frog legs alla chinois then you may need to go elsewhere for that kind of stuff!
i have eaten here several times and its always been a better choice than eating in a food court. The owner is nice and she must laugh as i grab the chinese newspaper to read (actually look at the photos) as she brings me a nice meal
if i need to rate the décor then well its cosy and fun and its not the Four Seasons or Nobu but its the right décor for chinese food

Really enjoyed the food here. I tend to stay away from Asian cuisines other then sushi because of the lack of veggie options (or if something is veggie, it has a a meat broth in it). But they had a pretty solid amount of choices. The food was prepared very quickly and tasted great! It was really cheap to eat there. It seems like a lot of people do take-​out rather then sit-​down. I did the take-​out there once and is was prepared right on time.
Definitely give this place a try; good food, prices and really quick.

The best chinese food that I’ve found in the Aurora area. Doesn’t blow your socks off but let me know if you can find a better one.
I find them fairly friendly and very quick to turn around a takeout order. I have never dined in there… only takeout.
Never had a bad dish so will keep going back!

Ate here a few weeks ago. Don’t expect anything fancy. Décor’s a little old fashioned but the booth seat’s quite cozy. Food smells and tastes good. Singapore noodles were not greasy. Service is great. The husband’s super nice and knows all the regulars. Took a star off just cause the lunch menu was kinda limited.

Have been going to Mei-​Ling for years, so starting a review of a place that feels like home is tough, but since the food here is as good as it gets for Chinese/​Szechewan, it deserves one.
First off, EAT IN! The place is small, poorly decorated, but comfy in a weird way. Kitty, the wife of the couple who own Mei-​Ling will immediately treat you as ifyou have been there a million times. She knows most people by name, as there is so many regulars, it would be hard to count.
OK, the food, because at Mei-​Ling its all about that.
You must have, in no particular order:
— Yet Ca mein noodle soup filled to the brim with chicken pieces, pork pieces, veggies, shrimp and yet ca mein noodles in a steamy, spicy broth that immediately evokes «the best soup I ever had» response.
— Calgary crispy ginger beef. THE best you’ve ever had in a sauce so good an order just of it would be appropriate.
— Szechwan chicken. see my photo attached herein
— Anhy of the noodle dishes, and ALL of their house specialties.
Really the best local take-​out Chinese food Ive ever had.
When in Aurora, make a point to have lunch at Mei-Ling…and save your money. Most lunch’s are $ 5.00!!!
