This is decent, solid Chinese food. Nothing fancy, nothing to get too excited about, but a place we wouldn’t mind eating at again. The food was tasty enough. The décor and drinks selection at the restaurant are nothing special, so I think we’re more likely to get this as take-out next time around.

Pleasant, good service, and reasonably priced. Enjoyed the shrimp chow mein(soft noodles).

Ping on opens late, and I mean late. It also delivers to Morningside so I am instantly a fan! We had a large order including crispy duck, squid, chinese greens, soups rice and the whole shebang. I cant comment on the restaurant having only had a takeout but that was tasty and fresh, and not gloopy and MSG-ified in that nasty cheap take out way. Try it!

I have used this restaurant on and off for about 20 years and have always enjoyed my visits(except once last year when it was a heatwave and they hadn’t switched on the A/C). The menu is quite extensive and exotic in places. The staff are always pleasant without being pushy and are friendly to children(of course our one is always on her best behavior because she loves the spicy chicken wings and Chinese tea). We come over from Fife and find the prices are a little on the high side, though I think the prices are typical for Edinburgh.

PingOn’s only saving grace is that it’s open till the wee hours of the morning. It was my saving grace last winter when it was minus 15. The staff have no problem with you nursing a cup of tea for 2 hours. On the food side of things, not good. This place is practically a take away with a seating area and table service. My the veg in my chow mein tasted a little old and the noodles were a little rubbery.

‘Emily, you HAVE to go to Ping on, it’s like, amazing, yah yah yah’ were the words I heard walking a rather tiddly and posh friend back home to Stockbridge the other night. I had heard about it, as it is open very late and feeds the drunk 2am market. What’s not to like? Well, I made the mistake of eating here sober. Don’t get me wrong — it was edible, but only just. I had crispy beef and my friend had sweet and sour chicken, but they both tasted exactly the same. The rice was really cold too, which I’m always wary of following a less-than-pleasant experience in Tenerife with bad rice. The shop itself is quite cool in it’s own way… maybe unintentionally so but cool nevertheless. I think that going here after a night out is the best way to experience PingOn, inebriating the senses.

I think it’s the late opening hours which makes Ping On such a Stockbridge institution. Also perhaps because we’re all into retro, kitsch things and it’s certainly that — cute net curtains and worn tables make it a perfect place to spend a drinking break. However, being cosy and reliable is one thing — being chewy and bland is another. Even though it’s a great place to eat n’ chat it’s not particularly great in the food department. Everything’s a bit of a strain on the jaw and really isn’t the most tasty. The staff were friendly and confident and the price seemed to be lower than a take away. I will be back here but definitely not for the grub.

I went to the Ping On for a recent works night our and was very impressed. I’ve been passing the restaurant for years and was always saying that I wanted to try the place. Well it was certainly worth the wait, we ordered a meal for eight people and every dish was superb. I also for the service to be excellent. I’m sure it won’t be long until my next visit.

This restaurant’s take away service was recommended to me by a friend, I was so disappointed when the meal we had was awful! The chicken tasted like it was off and the sauce on my partner’s dish was like jelly! Wouldn’t go back, wouldn’t recommend.

The staff were very nice and attentive and had put a few tables together for us. The wine list was huge which is nice. I ordered chilli honey spare ribs which were lovely. A bit filling for a starter but they were really nice. I was quite disappointed when I came here with my work. Everyone at work was saying how nice it was and that they went there a lot so I was really looking forward to it because I love Chinese food. Then for my main I ordered Kung Po chicken which I have had a few times in other Chinese restaurants. It was horrible, the sauce seemed very oily and the chicken didn’t have a very good texture. It totally put me off going back.

Not been here in a while but everytime I have been I have always had good service and a great meal. I have used both the restaurant and take away and never had any complaints yet. There is a great selection of meals and drinks and if you’re having problems deciding what to have the staff are more than willing to help out. If you’re in the area pop in you wont be disappionted
