Ho Ting Restaurant
Not Very Good.
Ordered take-out over the weekend and first of all it was pricey! I ordered two main dishes, fried rice, 2 spring rolls, and wantons= $42! Not what I expected.
Food: Spring rolls were really vegetable egg rolls. I called them up on this one since I have had both before and know the difference. They said they just have egg rolls and call them spring rolls on the menu to differentiate between meat and non-meat egg rolls. Also, there was no offer of a refund or any courtesy on this. Hmmm:( The wantons were good but small. The sesame chicken was not sesame chicken! No spices other than a taste of garlic. The fried rice was also bland. If you like bland food then come here!!!!
I wouldn't go back! I will travel over to Bloomington or St. Paul where there are some better Chinese food locations.…
Good but Limited. I enjoy eating at Ho Ting and try to get there at least once a month. The egg rolls are really good. But I would tend to agree with the earlier review about the slowness to refill the rather small buffet. It can be very frustrating to be there on a limited lunch schedule and be sitting there for 10 minutes waiting for them to bring out more food. Then when they do, 10 people jump up to get some (because we've all been waiting for it) and it's empty again. Definitely something the staff needs to work on.…
Very good food. The food was very good and you can tell they have a real Chinese cook and that the items are prepared on site. We recommend the home made dumplings and the seafood tofu soup.
Worse and worse.
They do have good food. The lunch buffet is tiny. However, it used to be worth it. I've watched them get cheaper and cheaper.
The employees seem to enjoy making the customers wait for food. Most of the dishes are down to the few last scraps. They'll bring one thing out at a time, and the buffet is NEVER full.
Don't these people realize saving a few bucks on food, and trying to avoid a little waste at the end of the lunch rush will just drive the customers away for good?
I used to enjoy going there even though the buffet was small. These days, it's small, and mostly empty. I refuse to go anymore because I'm tired of feeling like a dog fighting with the other dogs for the few scraps of food they throw at us. Dumb-asses.…
Fresh, Creative, Nutritious Home Cooked Asian Cuisine. I am a Chinese American resident of Eagan for 12 years, now living in St. Paul. Whenever my refrigerator gets low on inventory, and I don't feel like cooking, my husband and I head toward HoTing to eat in or to take out. It is a very clean and meticulously run family restaurant. Chef Lau is a hard working and good hearted person who delivers his best everyday. His sons David and Michael are very polite, efficient, and hospitable. The food is always delicious and nutritious. Chef Lau uses the freshest and highest quality ingredients he can find. He always delivers good value for the price. We have eaten everything on the menu, but we never leave there without having some Dry Fried String Beans. So good, so authentic, and so very nutritious. I trust HoTing to cook my home cooked meals whenever I couldn't.…
