Finally, good local Chinese food! Ho Ting is our favorite local restaurant for take-out. Great Mongolian Beef and Sesame Chicken, and we've really liked most of the other things we've tried as well. The egg rolls are the yummy small and crunchy kind. They have a very reasonable lunch buffet as well, and take-out orders are quickly made.

My wife and I have been going to Ho Ting for several years for dinner. It's our favorite Chinese restaurant. The wait staff are friendly and quick and the food never fails to satisfy. The cream cheese wontons and steamed dumplings are our favorite appetizers. I love the sesame chicken and my wife usually orders tangerine chicken. The food is delicious! We recommend Ho Ting to everyone.

Not very good..perhaps they need to rename their dishes. We ordered Mongolian Beef for take out.. If it had been a reasonable ratio of beef to onion, I could have understood the high price of it. In the entire container, there were perhaps two teaspoons of thinly sliced beef, and the rest were onion and sauce. When I called to ask if this is the usual portions of it the "chef" assured me it is correct. He also stated that if I had came back RIGHT AWAY, they maybe could have done something about it, but since a little time ha... read more

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 ... read more

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 thou... read more

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 nutriti... read more

Best in the Twin Cities – This restaurant is off the hook!!! They sell the some of best Chinese food That I have ever eaten and I eat a lot of Chinese food!!!!! It is fresh seasoned and not too sweet. The vegetables are crisp and the meat is tender and literally melts in your mouth . I tried the Mongolian beef and it was some of the best that I have ever had with a good balance of onions, garlic and carrots to the meat. The egg rolls were crispy inside and out. The calamari was also excellent it was flavored with garlic and ... read more
