Love this place. Chicken Lo Mein is excellent. The chicken fried rice is the best I've had. The lunch menu provides lots of food for a great price. Enough to split between 2 people for sure. The owners and staff are kind people. My favorite is the Lemon chicken. We have been going to this place for 20 years and the taste of the food has stayed the same and that's a good thing. read more

The food is amazing and the staff is so nice. Always super fast! Love this place. I like the chicken almond ding. It's unique to this place and very good. Honestly I've loved everything I've tried here. read more

5/5 everytime we grab take out. Located in a tiny strip mall it doesn't seem like much, but has your classic Americanized Chinese dishes (and in GIANT portions). I'm sure there are more traditional Chinese items on the menu, but I usually stick to the classics. I've only ordered take out but I would highly recommend Don Ho!! read more

Terrible food. Greasy and disgusting. We were given the wrong order on top of that. I have had better chinese food!

Fairly priced food. The cream cheese puffs were very delicious. I had the sesame chicken and they were nice and crispy with pretty decent fried rice. I would suggest this place especially considering the price. read more

I recently rediscovered this place, after having tried it only a few times many years ago, when under different ownership. I used to live nearby, and recently, have had to be in the area quite a bit. The egg rolls, really need to be had for dine in. When I had them in house, I enjoyed the crunch of the outside, and the inside seemed fresh and crisp as well. Reminded me of of how I recall my favorite old school egg rolls to have been, and I really enjoyed them. I think $4.25 seems a steep price for their size. As with most crispy fried things, they degrade when they are packed up, and and are sent off to be eaten elsewhere, long after being rescued from their hot oil bath. When I had them for take out, I thought they were fair, but for dine in, I thought they were very good. Cream cheese wontons were just fine, but not outstanding. I have found you cannot go too far wrong with that most midwestern of Chinese-American appetizer concoctions. It is a glob of cream cheese in a wonton, then deep fried. State Fair Bitc$es! Hot and sour soup was the thicker sort of base, and quite good. Lots of tofu, and a bit filling. Glad to have been sharing the bowl with the lovely girlfriend, and I do not always share nicely! The price on the soup was more expensive than most places. The price for a bowl, is what a quart costs elsewhere. Mandarin chicken is flavorful, with decent slices of chicken, and a veggie assortment I like, that included pea pods, and broccoli. Not "hot" spicy, but well seasoned. It has the same style sauce as chicken in Sa Dae Sauce from Village Wok, but has more veggies than just pepper and onion. I really enjoy this, and might consider continuing to make the trek from Mpls., just to get it. Combination Lo Mein is really tasty, and not too greasy. Seriously the best version of the noodles I have had in ages. It really could use a few more veggies. And other stuff. Needs more other stuff. Like protein. Really, for what it costs, it should have more substance. I think there were 3 shrimp, 6 bits of chicken, and not a ton of the pork. A few onion bits. This is like $2 in ingredients for $13 or so. I would try this dish with just veggies next time, just to see how it shook out, because the noodles were quite enjoyable, and I like some crunchy veg amongst the noodles. A near win, as the noodles were fantastically seasoned and cooked, but were so lonely without more bits and pieces. Chicken egg foo yung was not my favorite. Puffy, eggy patties, without much going on inside, slathered in 40 weight brown gravy, and sprinkled with rubbery chicken shards. Generic. Shrimp with lobster sauce is very good, but maybe a little thick. A bit more gristle on the pork than I prefer, but the flavor was what I have in my head from '70s Chinese food of my youth. My family were friends of the locally legendary Art Song, and though I was very young, I still remember how much I enjoyed his food, and the aroma and flavor of his shrimp with lobster sauce! Kung Pao chicken and Mu Shu pork were also pretty solid, with good flavors. Robust portions as well. I tried a lunch combo, and found it far inferior to ordering individual items from the menu. The fried rice was crunchy, with nothing but oil for ingredients other than old rice. No protein, might have had onion, but seemed just like hard, greasy fried rice. Egg roll, pre cooked ages before I ordered it seemed. Chicken broccoli was bland, and it seemed to utilize lesser quality bits of chicken than I had in other dishes. Plenty of decent veg, actually. And not just a bunch of water chestnuts and bamboo shoots. Bland as can be for the masses. When I read back, this seems a very mixed review. However, ultimately, I am a fan because the things I did really like, are far more solid renditions than I find elsewhere. If you are in the area (which is kind of a restaurant desert), and want Chinese/American food, I would say give it a shot! read more

I have been coming to Don Ho 3-5 times a month for about 5 years. They have the best Chinese in Bloomington, hands down. I have never been impressed with their service. The dining room is small, and rather unsanitary. I have seen them go from taking order, to cleaning tables, then grabbing your food without washing hands. A coworker and I used to frequent them for lunch, until we saw them refill a used water glass from one table and set it with their "ready to go" glasses for incoming customers.... Ewww... The owners (I assume, since they are always there) don't speak English very well, though the women does much better than the man. They are not very warm or welcoming. They will not make any substitution in their menu,. and about 50% of the time, something is wrong with the order. That being said, they are always quick to fix it, but never offer any apologies, and are very rude, which seems especially odd for a place that blazes KTIS, a local Christain radio station. I put up with all of this simply because the food was worth it. Yesterday, I had an experience that has driven me away permanently. I called in and ordered the same thing I do every time. 2 orders orange chicken, 1 extra spicy (for me) 1 regular (for the wife and 2 y/o daughter). The man on the other end said OK, 15 mins. 25 mins later, my wife comes back home with the food... I start enjoing mine, when my daughter starts screaming. Even though my box was marked spicy, and the other not, there was no question they were the same spicy batch. We quickly grabbed my daughter some milk, and a bit of chocolate to smooth things over, and all was well. I called in, and spoke to the same man who took my order. He began immediately talking over me, acknowledging he made them extra spicy, and arguing with me about what I ordered. Eventually he told me to come back in. So I make the 10 min drive over, waited at the front desk... THe man comes out and asked where the chicken was. I was confused... He said that I needed to "exchange it". I apologized, and said since he didn't tell me to being the used chicken back, I didn't bring it. It was very hard to understand what he was saying, but it became clear he wanted me to go back home, and bring the chicken back. I stated I was not going to do that. While I was in mid sentence, he walked away from the desk. The wife then came out, and called me a liar. What?? She said she heard him tell me to exchange it. I said, I never heard him say that. I went on to say, "I'm in here all the time", which she confirmed, "and I've got better things to do than drive 20 mins try to rip you off for an order of orange chicken." She asked me where I lived.... Frustrated at this point, I said "It doesn't matter where I live. I'm not going back home and coming back to fix you're mistake" "Are you going to make this right, or not?" She threw the chicken on the counter and stormed away. Final straw... Goodbye Don Hos... I hope you learn that good food can only get you so far in a service industry. read more

This small Chinese restaurant, is unpretentious, but there's nothing here that I would get excited about. The food is very much typical American-Chinese fare -- unauthentic, stir-fry for the most part. Prices are reasonable, and quantities are okay, but that's not enough to keep me coming back. read more

We have been going to this restaurant for over 15 years. We don't live in the neighborhood any longer but we frequently make a trip over here just for the food. When the restaurant sold to a new family we were worried that our favorite restaurant would no longer have the same food. The former owners stayed with the new owners for an extended period of time teaching them the recipes. The Chinese food in this restaurant always comes out piping hot and fresh. The won ton soup is the best I've ever had. You always get a great helping of food at a great price. Don Ho is definitely a restaurant to visit. It is not fancy, but it is delicious with great and friendly service! read more

Have tried a few Chinese food places since moving here from Japan about a year ago and this is my favorite place so far. Have tried the dumplings, lo mein, sweet /sour pork, and mu shu pork so far- all were excellent. read more

We love this place! I work near here and it's an office staple. For the price (and a like), it's the best take out Chinese we've all had!

Don Ho is a nice neighborhood Chinese restaurant that offers all of the familiar dishes. The food is very good and the service is friendly. The dining area is a bit small, so I prefer to go for take-out. read more

This is our all time favorite Chinese restaurant... There food is always fresh and so good

Not really a place to dine in. We usually order for take out. My husband usually orders the fried rice and lo mein. They are both really good and the portion is pretty big. I love their tofu and vegetables and the wonton soup. I haven't been disappointed so far. read more

Anna was very friendly & greeted me as a first time visitor- I ordered sesame chicken upon comments on Yelp as well as lo mein w/ extra veggies. Food didn't live up to expectations- I will try again but not what I had hoped for. Leftovers tonight were great with me adding veggies!! read more

Always fresh ingredients, great Don Ho taste and staff. Weekly stop for their House Fried Rice. Thank you Don Ho.

Okay, you don't go here for world class service, you go here for decent Chinese food at low prices. I often think people expect too much of these establishments. Get the Sesame, Orange, or sweet and sour chicken combo and you can't go wrong. Less than $8 for a two portions of chicken, rice and an egg roll or cream cheese puffs? I'll take. read more

My wife and I have gotten chinese take-out here a couple of times now. The food is consistently good, and that goes a long way. Nothing seems greasy/oily, the seasame chicken is breaded thinly so most of what you're eating is chicken. If you're looking for inexpensive and good chinese take-out, give them a try. read more

Don Ho has been consistently great. They have the typical menu and also have lunch specials and take out options. Our favorites have been the combination with chicken chow mein egg foo young and fried rice. Also the beef fried rice and beef and broccoli. They recently changed owners but tbe quality remains and the new owners seem happy to be there. read more

Run by new owners, still really good food and if you like lo mein and cream cheese puffs this is the best place to get it.

Been eating here for years, and we're never disappointed. Sesame chicken is our favorite- made extra spicy on request!

Based on the reviews I was psyched to give Don Ho a try. I love good chinese. I had a basic basic with Egg Rolls and Pork Fried Rice. Both were very tasty, though the egg rolls were cooked just a little too long but still totally good. Egg rolls are what you would expect. These Chinese places simply buy them from the supplier and deep fry just like everyone, though these were a bit smaller than other Chinese places around town. Also, the egg rolls were way too expensive at $4 for two rolls. Golden Wok sells bigger and better rolls for $2.50 so unless you're sying for egg rolls, give those a pass. The fried rice was excellent. Great color and texture and flavor. Lots of goodies in the rice. Highly recommend the fried rice. I caught a glimpse of other dishes and they all looked real good and I would bet they are just as delicious as they look. The menu prices are a bit disappointingly high, more than most comparable Chinese joints but we're talking about a buck too high per dish looking at the menu. If you're feeding a group rather than yourself it will add up in a hurry. Just basic pork fried rice and egg rolls was north of $12... and that's a lot for my lunch. The restaurant part is kind of dirty and a little gross. It's the kind of place I would not want to touch anything because it seems sticky and just unclean... but I don't care too much about that, though some might. Don Ho is a good place, highly recommend if you can spare a little extra change.as the food is good. read more

Just like the menu states, "Best Beef Lomein" and it is! This dish is loaded with flavor and plenty of beef! Very friendly business, we have been coming here for quite some time. My father-in-law lives in St. Cloud and when he's in town he makes a point to stop here for good chow mien because he trusts he will always have an awesome meal! read more

I have been eating at this restaurant for 25 years and I have never had a bad meal. The family/owners are friendly and the food is always tasty. I compare the Beef Lo Mein at every other restaurant to this one. This one comes out on top every time. Yes, the restaurant itself is small, but the portions are BIG! read more

This place is so good I have their number saved in my frequent contacts. Delicious food and they're always super speedy, usually 15 minutes for takeout which gives you just about enough time to get off the couch and get there. Staff is also very friendly, would definitely recommend. read more

Very good neighborhood Chinese restaurant. Their chicken chow mein is very good! We order for take out all of the time.

Very friendly staff, quick service (for both dine-in and take-out) and delicious food! I'm happy to see so many other great reviews- they deserve it! read more

Just moved into the neighborhood and was hoping to find a great restaurant for take out on those lazy nights of the week. Decided to try this place, and despite the fact that I am a pretty skeptical person when it comes to Chinese food-- this place has without a doubt the BEST Chinese food I have ever had. The flavor in everything I had was perfect. Price is also reasonable. I will definitely be a regular here. read more

Ordered chicken almond ding. Grey mushy goop with large chicken slices. Large portions, quick, friendly staff.

As an Asian guy. With all the Asian food I have eat this is the worst. i order a lo mein dish and all i could taste is strong soy sauce.

Their food is AMAZING. Their portions are HUGE and the service is WONDERFUL. This place is my go to Chinese restaurant in the twin cities. We paid the same amount here for a 5 star meal as we did 3 weeks ago at Lai Inn for half the food. Thanks guys!!!! read more

One of the best Chinese restaurants I frequently eat at. Excellent service and good hot food. Under new ownership and besides buffets this is the best neighborhood Chinese eatery. read more

Amazing food! Super authentic ambiance, the employees are extremely nice and service was amazing. Thank you Don Ho!

When we first moved to Bloomington, we tried this restaurant and were underwhelmed by it - mushy food with no discernable taste. I saw they changed owners so we tried it again and are delighted with the change. Very tasty food. Egg rolls are not the highlight here (way too much cabbage) but it seems odd to order Chinese with no egg rolls. I also love that they have specials you can order for dinner - not just lunch! Definitely best for take out vs. dining in - the restaurant is small and kind of depressing. We've had sesame chicken, egg foo young, lo mein, cooked to order chow mein, fried rice and cream cheese puffs. I have a Chinese New Years party every year and I think I'm getting the food here in 2017 - but no egg rolls. I think you'll like it and I love to support local businesses. read more

Best Chinese I have had so far. I love the sesame chicken, fried rice and cream cheese wontons. There sweet and sour sauce is phenomenal.

best, and i mean best fried rice and egg rolls. price is awesome, and you get tons of food for days.
