Ding Ho Carry Out — Restaurant in Lochearn

I made a visit to this place due to a recommendation from a family friend. I almost did not come because she made another recommendation that was awful for another similar place. There's a possibility she might be 0 - 2.

This place is very convenient to get to. It's in Baltimore County right off of exit 18 and nestled into a shopping center with plenty of parking and other shopping establishments. The carryout itself is small but accommodating for the customers.

Guess I should start from the beginning... I called to place my order in advance as well as ask questions. Everything went very smoothly and the young lady who answered the phone was very nice. I arrive to the establishment 20 minutes later to find out they only take cash. I don't normally carry cash. I went to my car and found cash. Once I returned, I saw a sign stating they take $CashApp. That's different and I take it!

Once I picked up my food I noticed she didn't ask me rice choices. Probably because I got lunch specials. I didn't have a menu on hand so I ordered blindly. Apparently the lunch specials come with fried rice. I don't eat fried rice. No big worries, no eggs are on the Shrimp Lo Mein ordered but is in the Chicken Rice Special which was fine. I ordered an appetizer of Shrimp Toast. The Shrimp Lo Mein was ok. Not the most flavorful but safe. The Chicken Fried Rice was pretty good and appreciated by my guys. The Shrimp Toast was nice w thick Shrimp but extra greasy.

I'd visit again in the future and try...

I ordered General Tso chicken from this location on two separate occasions (months apart from each other) and received food poisoning from both meals. When I recently placed my second order I had forgotten that this was the location that caused the initial illness months prior. The following morning I experienced nausea and severe vomiting. The only food that i expelled from my stomach was the food I ordered from Ding-Ho. I ordered from this location again because I grew up eating food from here and because at least six months passed between the time of my two orders, and I completely forgot that this was the restaurant that caused my sickness. My family and friends have enjoyed food here for years. But now I wouldn't order anything off of this menu if someone else...

This spot for some reason is cash only and is definitely not worth it they've made a lot of changes but none for the better of the customer they have smaller portions and higher prices the biggest complaint is the last time my family and I ate there if I didn't know any better we were food poisoned all of us got the runs and vomited all night. I lived in this neighborhood for over 40 years and just started eating there again. BIG MISTAKE!!!! I remember when they were shut down by the health department for rodent infestation. If you take a chance and eat here, just know it's a risk that's NOT worth it. While you're there, take a peek at the kitchen and follow your INSTINCTS, I WISH I...
