Consistently the best Canadian Chinese food in Halifax. Their eggrolls, ginger beef, lemon chicken, flavourful, brothy broccoli… everything I’ve tried there is A+ and tastes fresh and homemade!! Pick up a mug while you’re at it :-)

We have been going here for well over 20 years and the quality is slowly dropping, not sure what it is but the sweet and sour chicken balls just taste different,the rice seems off and so does the beef and 🥦. We had not been there for a while because of the construction in the area and parking being hard to get. When we did go recently we noticed the change in the food. So ,we are not sure if we will be going back, if so, not any time soon.

We went to Look Ho Ho around 6:30pm on Saturday November 1st. We were told to sit anywhere and they would come and clean the table. No one came until we called someone over after 15 minutes.
We placed our order and my and my daughter’s orders came out about 30minutes later. My wife’s order took another 15 minutes and it was wrong. Took another ten minutes to be corrected and returned to her.
Other than dropping off food no one checked on us or asked if we wanted anything else.
We heard other tables near us with similar complaints about poor service and receiving incorrect orders. If this is the new normal for them I would not recommend.

This was my first visit to Look Ho Ho in quite some time. I started with the wonton soup and two egg rolls. The wonton soup and egg rolls are easily the best in Halifax and their plum sauce, which is made fresh daily, is exceptional. I could drink it from a cup. I also had the General Tao Chicken and it was excellent as well. Many thanks to my very friendly server and the staff in the kitchen for a great Chinese meal. Easily 5 stars!!!
Such a classic. Not much on atmosphere but the food makes up for that!

Ordered pickup of a c11 tonight, General Tao chicken and rice with an egg roll. The 1st thing I noticed when I got home and opened it up, was the orange-red color. No spicy smell that usually accompanies this dish. I dug in eagerly and was immediately assaulted with a Sweetness overload! It was sweet and sour sauce, not Gen Tao. So I decided it was worth the drive to go back and get the correct dish. I called the restaurant and the woman who answered was the same one who waited on me, (and I tipped) I told her I had received the wrong sauce on my food and she put me on hold for 30 seconds and then came back and told me she gave me the right food. I reiterated that it was sweet and sour not Gen Tao. She asked if the chicken was in balls, I confirmed it was not in balls but pieces of battered chicken. She said if it was sweet and sour it would be in balls and red. I confirmed it indeed was red. She essentially called me a liar, said she packed it and it was fine and too bad for me! I advised that I would be leaving this review as I'm tired of spending my hard earned money at places that have no integrity. This place has NONE!! I'm sad because I loved the General Tao chicken there. But eating (because I was hungry) sickly sweet & sour and the complete lack of customer service has convinced me to never waste a dime in this establishment again! TIP: if ordering take out, check the order yourself before you leave the restaurant because they WILL NOT make it right!!

Wow, this is my go to place for Chinese food going forward. I had delivery from Uber. Bring it to my home which was 25 minutes away. It arrived hot and fresh great portions. Very very tasty. I’ve had Chinese food before but this place is on the top of the list I will be returning again and again thank you so much. Great service great food much appreciated. I had the sweet-and-sour shrimp beef, fried rice, chicken balls. Everything was fantastic and hot and package very well.

4.5 stars. Vegetable chow mein had a generous variety of vegetables and the service was very attentive. Prices reasonable. Bathroom very clean, always good sign for any restaurant.
