Look, this is a "dollar a scoop" Chinese place, not the Canton Palace in Hong Kong. Here is what I know: I have been coming here for about a year now and the place has never steered me wrong. Every dish I have had is not just palatable, but generally enjoyable. The portions are huge. You get enough for a meal and a half for less that $5.If you are frightened away by appearances (or the neighborhood clientelle) don't bother coming in. However, if you want a better than average, quick Chinese meal for less than $5, this is an amazing bargain. Sheshe, and happy eating!

Like one of the other reviews said, most people that have posted a review of Ho Mei have completely unrealistic expectations of a "per scoop" Chinese place. You're not going to be eating gourmet food, but for less than $5 for more food than some people can eat....you can't beat it.I've been here a few times and I'm never disappointed. Last time I went in I had sesame chicken and beef with broccoli, both of which were fresh and good. The eggrolls are pretty gross, but who cares when you're getting over a pound of food for $5?If you want authentic, gourmet Chinese, go somewhere else. But if you want a cheap, filling, (mostly) tasty meal give them a shot.

Disgusting. Some of the worst chinese food in Denver. Ho Mei is Nas Tay.

This place is very affordable and their food is tasty. They give very large scoops. It's as good as buck a scoop places get.

Not sure why people are hating? This place has a line of people anytime I go. I love that I get a ton of food and a drink for less than $5 bucks! I have always gotten fresh food too because of all the business they do. My wife and daughter hate it, but I will stop anytime I'm in the area for lunch. Try the jalepeno chicken!

I got lunch here. General Tso's chicken and a rootbeer (no rice/noodles). It was TWO DOLLARS AND FIFTY CENTS. Sure it sort of felt like there was going to be gastrointestinal fallout for about two hours after the meal, but it never happened. Unless it's going to be like a month later. That'd be weird.
AVG:(5.0)
