| - After dropping off the car at Midas for an oil change, we decided to grab lunch. One kid wanted Subway. One wanted Chinese food. Lucky for us, Subway and Ho Ho Ho are right next to each other. The kid who wanted Subway must have read the Yelp reviews and knew to go with the sandwich. Lucky her.
After a quick stop at Subway , we walked like three steps over to Ho Ho Ho. Ordered beef and broccoli lunch special with chow mien, and a large entree size Mongolian beef. The food was not great but I've had worse (China Tango, I'm talking to you. Oh wait, they were so bad, they shut down some time ago.). My gripe really is with the portion size. We barely had any meat in either the beef and broccoli or the Mongolian beef. Paying $20 for a lunch special plus an entrée, I expect more than 4 pieces of meat in each dish. Of the two meat dishes, the Mongolian beef was the bigger disappointment in that it was mostly onion. Like an entire onion sliced up. Not good. At all.
Also, the restaurant was super smoky. Soda foundation was sticky, like greasy sticky.
There are plenty of so-so Chinese places in town. Go eat at one that gives you a real serving of what's in the title of the dish.
