    Food was amazing! After my husband and i's favorite Chinese restaurant closing, we've been on a hunt to find a new place. A 16 drive from my home, I was set! The place is very clean and comfortable, with a mix of nostalgic feel and a modern look. The wait staff was quick and attentive, our cups always full. We had hot tea as well and it was very tasty. We ordered the sweet and sour chicken, beef chow fun, mushroom chicken, and steam rice. Everything tasted fresh and the sweet and sour chicken had a nice crunch, the mushroom chicken was tender and flavorful, the chow fun was amazing and definitely one of the best I ever had, and the the rice was perfect. Overall I think I found a new favorite spot!

    Wow! Came to Hughson for a high school football game and decided to try the Golden Bowl for the first time and we are hooked! Excellent customer service with attentiveness and constant refills. Truly felt welcomed! The pork fried rice was phenomenal as the sweet and sour chicken where it actually tasted fresh! You need to try the potstickers (first time eating it) as they are homemade. We will be back!

    Food was delicious and service was great. Family friendly and cozy! I'd eat here instead of panda express the wait time wasn't bad.

    You would never think that a town like Hughson would have a great sushi place like the Hughson…read moreAsian Kitchen! The restaurant is nestled in the cute downtown area of Hughson, their main street. Upon walking in, we were greeted by the staff and seated right away. We were there on a Thursday evening about an hour before closing, but the restaurant was packed with customers. The menu has an extensive selection of Chinese and Japanese dishes. I had the Bruce Li roll which had tempura shrimp topped with crab meat, salmon, tuna, spicy mayo and unagi sauce. I also 2 pieces of the Hamachi (yellowtail), miso soup, and spicy edamame. The fish was some of the freshest I've ever had - flavorful, definitely sushi grade, and I could tell that it also wasn't previously frozen due to the color and texture. The miso soup and the spicy edamame were well-seasoned and delicious. My nephew had a combination plate with orange chicken, broccoli beef, and chicken fried rice. One thing to note that was really nice is that the restaurant allows you to create your own combination plates, they're not set items with no substitutions. When our waitress brought my nephew's combo plate, the food looked freshly cooked and delicious! He ate every bite! If you're ever in Hughson, try the Hughson Asian Kitchen - the friendly staff and tasty food won't disappoint!

    Had lunch here while working in Modesto because it was nearby my location. Pretty disappointing…read moreChinese but the price for the amount of food was great. We called in an order for pick up, when I got there 15 minutes later it was ready and waiting. The 2 combo plates probably weighed 4 lbs in the bag. I honestly have no idea but it was hefty. The gentleman who helped me was also very nice and prompt. Unfortunately, the food was pretty lackluster. My orange chicken was miles away from crispy and the sauce was kind of bland. Also the chicken itself had that gross old chicken flavor that usually only comes from reheated chicken. The chow mein was also pretty bland. They did give chili sauce and soy sauce with the order, and adding those 2 things in spades did help with the lack of flavor. The cheese puffs were also disappointing. There was a good amount of crab in them, which is unusual for cheese puffs, however, the wrapper was thick and not crispy at all, mostly chewy, so all the enjoyable texture you expect wasn't there. My spouse had a combo with fried rice, beef & broccoli, and fried prawns. He liked it well enough but agreed it was pretty mediocre. The fried rice was pretty good but the beef & broccoli left a lot to be desired. In spite of the so so food, it's such a great price that it may be worth it to you. If you need a lot of food for not a lot of money, and you don't have high quality standards, this place will definitely take care of you.

This restaurant is off of Mitchell, which is a busy street, so it is easy to get to. It is part of a large shopping center so lots of parking. The restaurant itself it pretty spacious and has lot of seating. Could very well accommodate a larger group. We were greeted and seated right away. The lady that seated us was very pleasant and met us at the table with iced water and our menus. We ordered: 1. Thai teas: refreshing and delicious. 2. House Special: came with fried shrimp, fried broccoli, Laos sausage, fried chicken, beef jerky and fried egg roll. All fried to perfection and a great plate to purchase to appease most palates. 3. Large sticky rice: which is a must! 4. Laos papaya salad (mild): this comes with 6 Thai chilies and was perfect heat. It comes with a side of fresh cabbage. It was all the things we needed the salad to be. The sauce was dark in color, salty and that danky goodness! 5. Laos sausage: ordered this on accident because I didn't realize there was some sausage that came on the house special platter which was fine because we knew we were taking stuff home. 6. Crispy pork belly: marinated perfectly and fried to perfection. Dipping sauce complimented it well. So much food and I believe the bill came in under $90. A good amount of food, delicious and filling. Glad we stumbled upon this place and don't think it will be our last visit!

    The "food" was the most awful tasting and foul smelling garbage I have ever tasted. I had two…read morebites. One of alleged sweet and sour pork, which was in chewable gristle. The entire portion was gristle because I disected the pork. The second bite was spaghetti noodles and some sort of awful smelling sauce. This was disguised as chow mein but not a single vegetable. Spaghetti and sauce. I was not offered a refund when I complained to the woman who was working. Infact, She hung up on me. The following day the manager offered to replace the food. Uugh! Not a chance could I ever go near that place without dry heaving. Thanks but I will take the loss. Gross.

The portions are giant! The chow mein is not very good since it's only flavored with soy sauce and the bean sprouts don't feel cooked all the way down. The fried rice is surprisingly good but a bit on the oily side. The Bar-B-Q Pork was a bit dry and good use more sauce or flavoring but the garlic chicken was great! Service: 5/5 - quick service. Ambiance: n/a - ordered food to go. Value for price: 5/5 - food is okay but the pricing is great for the amount of food we got!

Fast forward years later and GK Mongolian BBQ opens in Turlock. My husband tried it when it first opened and did enjoy it but for some reason we never went back. We were in the mood for going out but wanted something quick. We decided to give it a try. We were promptly greeted upon entering and told to go ahead and start our meal prep. Lots of choices of meats and fresh veggies. There are also a lot of sauces to choose from which can be overwhelming. They recommend one scoop of each but I say if you have a preference for certain ones then you do you!

Line for the grill cooks to cook your food was initially fast at 11am due to the low number of customers in the morning but approaching lunch hour. 12noon the line got extremely long and took 30 minites to get my food cooked.
