Ding How Chinese - San Antonio

Eat is good. Hot acid suppe was tonight. too much edgy or hot oil. not as good as previously visited. kung pow huh was excellent as seshwan bark meat. service was excellent, but if they seriously wear over covid masks, why are all sitting in the same section closing together? I'm going to be on the staff for a moment, but we were overcrowded! another good Asian experience in an Asian desert of san antonio.

Good atmosphere, fast service. We got a party of 6 and got seated so fast during lunch time. Food was tasty and affordable. Our waitress was so considerate and friendly. The only dish doesnt meet expectation was the pecking duck. It was such a small dish for the price, and there weren't buns. The duck also taste blanc, so it can be done so much better.

After a brief 5 min wait, I was seated. Hostess informed me that staff was new and still learning, which allowed me to practice a little more patience w my young waiter. Although he forgot my drink, and of those around me, you could see he was trying. Hot Sour soup was extremely tasty and only one I've had that actually had a welc?med kick to it! Spicy Garlic Shrimp was just that. All in all, good visit. Planning on returning to try a couple more dishes. Only drawback was that it was a bit warm.?‍

The last time I dined here was in the early 1990s, but recently read a raving review that this was THE BEST CHINESE in San Antonio. What a joke! There are definitely much, much better asian cuisine in San Antonio. Service by Hyesun was good! Dined here on a Friday evening (early), so we were seated immediately. Big menu, but be prepared for up charges, such as fried rice vs white rice $1.20 and wonton strips for a cup of soup 55 cents. My Kung Bo Chicken was mostly celery! Small bits of chicken. It was HORRIBLE! The fried rice is a joke. It is yellow, instead of white. No veggies or meat in the fried rice. BEWARE! The soy sauce on the table, in an unmarked dispenser, was EXTREMELY salty.

Not impressed at all. After reading about the great food and prices, I decided to try it. My eggroll came first and on the first bite, I bit into something so hard I couldn't chew it up. I instantly gagged and put it off to the side. I ordered cashew shrimp and fried rice. I got a mound of green onions, green peppers, peas, cashews, and 5 shrimp and white rice. Now that I'm home, my stomach is very upset.
