The list is extensive, and most of these seafood are delicious, but not every customer is happy. We understand though, that such is life, not everyone will like you. One customer who dropped an online review was of the opinion that the meal he was offered was Plain and flavorless food.
According to the customer, Ho Ho restaurant has lost whatever charm they had before COVID-19. He insisted that even though he had been there many times before, their hot and sour soup was nothing like it was before the COVID. To him, it had no layers of flavors, he concluded by saying he only tasted vinegar and pepper.
But another customer has a different opinion, on his review, he acknowledged that Apparently, Ho Ho restaurant is a long-standing establishment. He narrated how he alongside friends had stir-fried green beans with pork and tofu and pork. Everything was very satisfying to them. Good presentation and service.
So you see, while some are in support, some are against it.
