Amazing food ! Fried rice needed a bit more flavour!
Great staff amazing staff
Mr. Ho was our chosen spot for lunch recently - we (as a threesome) arrived at the restaurant shortly after it opened at 11 am, and were able to catch a place to park in the small lot at the back.
We were warmly greeted upon entering, and shown to booth seating by the window. Our server then brought a large pot of hot tea, mugs, and menus as soon as we had seated -- her service was friendly and helpful throughout our stay. Service to our table of the dishes ordered, was very prompt. During our meal, the owner (who had been working at the service counter), made-rounds to all occupied tables (a good number at that time) - for a big place, I found that a rather nice touch, and enjoyed our short chat.
Food ordered: Appetizer: honey garlic chicken wings (chicken wings w/sauce and a few pieces of pineapple) -- Seafood: fresh squid w/salt & hot pepper (breaded squid (body pieces) w/garlic, and lightly seasoned) -- Veggies: pan-fried chop suey (mixed) veggies (broccoli, sweet corn, baby bok choy, mushroom, carrot and onion) -- Chow Mien: house special chow mein (dry noodles, broccoli, sweet corn, mushroom, shrimp, slices of chicken, beef, and pork).
Presentations were fine - quite colourful, and served up in good portion sizes. Preparations, as a whole, though rather well-prepared, were not particularly unique in composition, or flavourfully 'exciting' with distinctive tastes -- vegetable dish, though ingredients included different veggies, composition was mostly broccoli, and lacked a good selection of 'different' veggies, sauce/stock lacked a little in tasty flavour -- chow mein dish included the same kinds of veggies used in the veggie dish, and lacked a touch in flavour -- squid was very tender and flavourful (mostly from the garlic in the preparation), but breading was rather soggy -- wings were tender, flavourful and tasty, but the preparation quite greasy.
Though not particularly "wowed" by the food tried at Mr. Ho, the dishes ordered, restaurant's rather nice ambiance, and good, friendly service, provided a fun, and enjoyable lunch dining experience.ere? Include that too! And remember, your review needs to be at least 140 characters long :)
Have been since i was a child. The place is family friendly with benefits of good food and a friendly environment. The staff here is very friendly.
