   Service and quality of food was compromised due to "kitchen too busy". There are plenty of competition in soho and I would go somewhere else next time.

   I met 2 girlfriends for dinner (one of whom is a vegetarian) at Ho on a Tuesday eve and we all enjoyed our experience. The restaurant has a warm feel and the staff is friendly and very efficient. We shared several plates, each of which allowed very decent tasting portions between the three of us. Vegetarian options were plentiful and the food was both beautifully presented and delicious overall - would certainly go back for the vegetable dumplings alone. Great value for money in very central London, especially if booking during Happy Hour.

   We enjoyed the 50% off £50 set menu & complimentary bottle of prosecco. Thought it was excellent value for money as we had got to try a variety of items that we would not normally order such as the Crispy Duck & Fresh Watermelon, Cashew Nuts. It was tasty and refreshing...who knew those favours would work so well together. Would recommend and would book again.

   I'd been meaning to come to Ho for a long time and as such I had high expectations. The idea of fusion Vietnamese-inspired food was very appealing and the place had the potential to be outstanding given the inventiveness of the dishes. Sadly, I felt the freshness of the ingredients let us down a bit. The chilli Mayo looked congealed, the slices of lime were dry and the pork belly was a melt-in-the mouth experience which disappointed with a slight aftertaste of meat and broth that was not as fresh as it could have been. It wasn't off at all but it certainly hadn't been cooked that day and it left me with the disappointing realisation that this too tasted a bit of chain food. I found the decor a bit underwhelming too. Cold and slightly aged. Too dark and the tables are far too close to one another. So all in all perhaps my expectations were too high. It was ok but I wouldn't go raving about it.

   The unlimited prosecco brunch was incredible. So much good food and lots of nice fizz too. Lovely staff, our waiter, Sa, was outstanding.

   We ate as a 4 taking up the £25 per head banquet with a bottle of prosecco. We had one meat banquet and one veggie one and it was all delicious. Service was great and we left there feeling very happy and satisfied. Highly recommended.

   This place is a bit of a find in this area. Good food, good service and great food (even for our vegetarian friend).

   Good modern Vitnamese food. Waiting staff were lovely but a little too attentive, we got the feeling they were hurrying us even though the restaurant was nearly empty. Without the opentable deal the set menu would have been expensive, but the ordinary menu seemed to be better value.

    This is not a first time for us here. We keep coming for the great food each time we are in the are. The food is very good and the Rock and Roll offer is good value at the weekend. Service here is also very friendly. We will be coming again.
