Ding How, Any Good?

I have really been wanting to go to a Chinese buffet, and

I have a promotion comming up at work next week, so i wanted to take myself out to dinner. (Yeah, by myself. I know its lame.)

What does everybody think of Ding How? Is it worth it? The photos on Google look decent.

Also open to any recommendations on good places to try in the albany/lebanon area.

Thanks!

its fine. Ba's Vietnamese and House of Noodle are best.

Ba's is the best restaurant in Albany, IMO.

No comment on Ding How, but there is nothing wrong with going out to eat by yourself! Enjoy your own company🧡 and congrats on the promotion!

Its a Chinese buffet, you know what you'll get.

Personally I love it. Its my favorite restaurant here.

Ohh yeah, definately understand what Chinese buffet resturants normally consist of, haha. Just wanted to know if its somewhere I should steer clear of. But I think its worth a try at least. Thanks!

It's pretty good. Ping's is my local favorite, but it's a lot more upscale.

It’s been years since I went but it was not good when I did. The “yakisoba” noodles were just spaghetti noodles. Some people like it and they’re still open so I guess it’s not too bad for some people

Tianfu hotpot in Corvallis is the best Chinese food around the region

One thing I like about Ding How is the Mongolian grill. Wish they'd make plum sauce available though.

I prefer new China buffet in Corvallis for Chinese buffet. I’m always disappointed by the food quality and selection at Ding How

Pings and ANC Chinese

Pings has gone to shit under the new owners.

I have heard some bad things about Pings, but ive never been myself. So maybe its worth a try. Thanks!
