Ho Ho Chinese BBQ is very similar to another Chinese restaurant in town, Din Ho Chinese BBQ.
Ho Ho is located off I-35 on the north side of Austin near Parmer Lane, for anyone in Round Rock this would be a drivable distance for really good Chinese. If you want the best (in my opinion) you need to travel further south to Din Ho’s.
The first time Hubby and I ate here after they opened our waiter was a familiar face. He’s an older gentleman, what’s left of his hair is grey, he is quiet and genuinely nice. We asked if he works at Din Ho, he said he likes working at Ho Ho’s better. Anything new, be it a new house or restaurant, always has that fresh appeal. Ho Ho’s looks like a newer version of Din Ho’s, it’s not as dark and there are booths instead of purely tables and chairs. We prefer a booth. The tank of live fish can be stinky, but I will look it over to get a freshly filleted fish. Straight from the water to the pan!
We met here for lunch, it was not busy and our “regular” waiter greeted us with his friendly smile. I ordered the Orange Chicken, Hubby had a spicy fish dish. The chicken had a delicate dredge of flour, the meat was moist and mostly from the breast. Egg roll, soup and rice come with the lunch plates. I usually get the won ton soup as the warm broth is so inviting. The sauce for the chicken is sticky sweet and spicy, just as it should be. This plate filled me up for 6.95$. We will visit again and often!
