About Ming's Court Chinese Restaurant

Ming’s Court serves generous, nostalgic Australian-Chinese banquets around vintage lazy susans in Morphett Vale. Round up a crew and settle into the retro dining room—aquarium humming in the background—for shared multi-course feasts paced comfortably between rounds. Longtime regulars lean into the sizzling plates, peanut-rich satay, and sweet honey chicken, knowing full well the portions usually yield takeaway containers for tomorrow. Settle in with cold beer or a bottle brought from home under BYO corkage.

  • Heaping Banquet Feasts: Generous multi-course banquets bring steady rounds of classics like satay and fried rice with plenty left over.
  • Retro Dining Room: The room leans into traditional 1990s charm with revolving lazy susans and an aquarium.
  • BYO Friendly: Guests can bring their own bottles for a modest corkage fee alongside the house drink list.

    Multi-course set banquet menus arrive piping hot with coordinated pacing and portions so substantial that diners frequently take home leftover containers.

    Between the 2 of us we could only eat about 1/3 of what was served. We came home with 4 takeaway containers full for dinner tomorrow.

  • Warm Celebrations for Group Milestones

    Family milestone celebrations are accommodated with thoughtful service, including staff presenting and singing around guest-provided birthday cakes.

    Took own birthday cake, and the staff lit the candles, and presented well to the table, whilst they all sang, which was a lovely touch.

    Teams cater effortlessly to personalized dining requests and special off-menu dishes, making group outings feel tailored and memorable.

    We explained the dish to the staff and after confirming our request several times to make sure it was correct - they made the dish for us, exactly as we requested
