I like this place, even though I notice today they are closed temporarily (so check before you go). Before their prices caught up with inflation, I loved (and still like) the lunch special...a great salad, egg roll, rice, and an entree (sweet & sour shrimp). All tasted good, left me feeling good (not always the case with some places), and still affordable for full lunch. The robot that delivers the food is a nice touch. When they first got it, I asked, "Does it ever hit people," and the waitress said, "Oh, yes!"—which explained why it was always chaperoned by a human. But now I think it's programmed better.

Flavorful food but each dish delivered by AI trolley (then placed on table by server) was tepid to cold: soup with dumpling, Moo Goo Gai Pan and even the rice. It was a lovely Sunday evening in June so we were the only people eating in what seemed a nice contemporary environment.

Wanted to give Ting's another try - unfortunately, will not be back. Tonight's dinner of sesame chicken for $17.95 comprised of fried hard bits of overcooked chicken and the serving size did not include 17 pieces of chicken. This was on the menu as a "House Specialty" and very disappointing. Crab/cream cheese wontons were ok. Glad there are other options for take-out Chinese in Lafayette.

Ting’s has a large, very clean and attractive dining room. The food was very good and reasonably priced. If you are into robots, they have a robot that delivers your food to your table. We were looking for a light lunch and shared the Sesame Chicken with fried rice. It came with a cup of soup and an egg roll. Everything was very good and the soup was very hot. Next time I would forgo the fried rice as it had no vegetables or egg. It was more than enough food and we had some leftover.

Food was only average, and generally overpriced. Not a great value, the bill was approaching $100 for two people to have two entrees and appetizers, plus one silly and overpriced cocktail. On a lark, my companion wanted the $18 hurricane drink, which ended up tasting like a mix of chlorine and dish soap. Avoid that cocktail whatever you do, but I doubt most people go to a Chinese restaurant for the great bartending anyway. My veggie egg roll was good and my entree was sort of dry. My friend's sesame chicken was also dry.Vegetarian options: They have vegetarian options and what I had was good.

We have had take out here before but not dined in. The food is good, the service is friendly and prompt, we were here on a Thurs eve so there is only about about 3 tables. Best part they have robot servers! They had at least 2 that helped bring food out, talked and also sang happy birthday to a table! Very cute and entertaining!

A Lafayette institution, Ting's is by far the best sit-down Chinese/SE Asian restaurant in Boulder County. Spiced duck steamed buns are heaven. Sesame tofu, Laksa curry, broccoli beef - I've never had something from Tings that wasn't delicious. Eat in for a great atmosphere and be entertained by their robot helper. One last note, they keep their restaurant impressively clean.Vegetarian options: Lots -Dietary restrictions: They can make some dishes gluten free.

Ting's is my absolute favorite place for Chinese in Colorado. The flavors are what I grew up with, so it brings back comforting memories. Their hot and sour soup is the best I've ever had.

I have only ever gotten lunch takeout. Usually General Tso's chicken with lo-mein instead of rice. The portion is not big, especially the chicken. But the flavors are very good. The price is about average. I used to live in St. Louis, and we had awesome Chinese takeout places everywhere. Here in Colorado, most places are terrible, in comparison. This is the best place I have tried, by far. Also, the lo-mein option is great. Most places, if you ask for the substitution, they charge some crazy amount extra, or they look at you like you personally insulted them. Back to the portion, I am a pretty big-ish guy, and while not stuffed after eating, I am not still hungry either. Will definitely come back again. Oh, last thing, they don't over-do the breading on the chicken, like many places.

This establishment is clean, service is quick, efficient, and food was delicious.We were waited on promptly, drinks were kept filled, and our waitress checked on us frequently. She always had a smile.The food was delicious.Will definitely keep Ting's Place on our map.
Always good, consistently over many years. Chicken with Garlic Sauce and Mongolian Beef are our go to dishes each visit. Our favorite Asian restaurant in the country despite having to move away. Always return here when back in the area. Beyond comparison.

So good!!! My chicken eggplant was delicious and I got 3 meals out of it. Sesame chicken was also really good. The egg rolls were more like spring rolls and didn't seem homemade, that's the only downside. But we loved this place and will be back for sure!

Tried this place on a whim and we’re glad we did. We aren’t from here and we’re visiting from Alaska. Excellent food, excellent service, and a nice clean atmosphere. Fried Potstickers ? were awesome. As was the chicken fried rice, sweet and sour shrimp, and sesame chicken. We all loved it and will go back if we ever find ourselves in this nice town. Go and grab a bite here, you’ll be glad you did.

We ordered takeout, and the packaging was very clean and sturdy. Got the sizzling rice soup, which tasted really good. The broth was more cloudy and thick than previous ones I've had, which I liked. But, could use more vegetables and meat in it, and the ingredients in the soup weren't mixed up very well, which was a bit inconvenient when serving. Also, the rice was just a rice cake, so it wasn't great.Also ordered the chicken moo shu pancakes. It tasted good and was a solid size for the price, but only came with four pancakes. Would definitely recommend getting extra pancakes, as you'll have enough filling for more.Overall, I'll give it a solid four stars. The prices are about average and the dishes that I had were tasty. Certainly room for improvement as explained above
