    No chicken, just deep fried skin
    Mary M.

    Tasty or WasteY? A little bit of both !!! I love this place because it's clean, quiet, and the service is great. What I don't like is their garlic chicken, should be called, spicy garlic, chicken skin! There is rarely any pieces of chicken when I order this. I rarely order it because it has no chicken. I don't know why they call it garlic chicken. It's a deep fried chicken, skin and fat. Somebody should talk to the owner about this and start adding chicken to this dish. I like everything else at the restaurant the atmosphere and the cleanliness.But sometimes trying to go cheap on a chicken plate by not putting the chicken doesn't make any sense to me. I would recommend a lot of dishes, except anything with garlic chicken in it.

    I have to say this is one Chinese restaurant that I highly recommend anyone coming to. It is very difficult for me to give such high rating for a Chinese restaurant since they are "a dime a dozen". However, this place was a recommendation from someone at work. Interestingly, enough, I don't remember seeing one item that I ordered, even though it was served, "peking ribs". I highly recommend anyone who like sweet ribs. Their customer service is exceptional and they are very friendly. The menu items are within my budget... Comparable to other Chinese restaurants. This has become I will go to Chinese restaurant (hubby and me). Quality of food: A + + Quality of service: A + + Price: $ - $$

    Amazing food, great service and good price. First time eating there and will definitely go back. Enough food for dinner and a good size lunch the next day.

    The food here is pretty good and the service was good as well I will be coming here again when I'm in Turlock Food came out quick and was fresh, the sweet and sour pork was good also the pork chow mein! Beef and broccoli as well!

    Excellent service and good food. I have and will eat there again. If you want a good Chinese meal they are number one in Turlock.

    Good food, plenty of seating, lots of parking. Hard working staff! Good portion size. Fast for takeout orders. Reasonable prices.

    Do not buy this soup ! Buy Hot and Sour soup and any Chinese food from the Bay Area before you ever buy in the Central Valley.

No make up comfortable clothes messy hair- I'm probably looking half asleep or like we just woke up. We were still treated accordingly and got our delicious food. I'm pretty sure this is a husband and wife for many years combination. They got it down. He's in the back cooking she handles everything upfront. Food comes out quickly with very generous portions. If you're looking for fancy, go somewhere else if you're looking for super good classic Chinese food come here you won't regret it.

Took my staff here and for 2 of them, it was their first time trying this Chinese place. Ordered on the dim sum menu- pork shu mai, shrimp dumpling, steamed pork bun. Since we did family style, I ordered for everyone but gave them option to choose an entree. Sizzling rice soup - staff loved it, simple ingredients of bok Choy, chicken , shrimp and crackling rice that's put on the soup at the table. 5 stars Mongolian beef - favorite for the first timers. One staff said she liked the taste and the crispy won ton. 5 stars. Pan fried - Hong Kong style chow mein - basically the noodles is toasted and crispy and the sauce with the meats (chicken beef shrimp) with bok choy is placed on top! I always get this and i recommend peeps to try it! My staff loved it. 5 stars Pork fried rice - usually I like the pink bbq pork style fried rice but this isn't bad. Not a lot of veggies so not colorful. 4 stars Garlic chicken- pretty good: lots of onions. Doesn't seem that garlicky to me. 4 stars Hot spicy string beans- needed some greens and this is pretty crunchy and tasty. 5 stars Service- lots of peeps working. When you ask boxes to go, they give you it but don't put the food for you. 4 stars Overall, good place to sit down and have dim sum or order Chinese food. Popular place for Togo orders

There were also tempura-style veggies and fries. No fresh vegetables or fruit, but they had stir-fried broccoli. There were also egg rolls and crab rangoon. Simple tables and chairs, 2 bathrooms (with disposable seat covers available), and disposable plates, forks, cups, etc. Floor was just a little sticky. You just walk right in, grab a plate, and start loading up. Once you sit down, someone will bring drinks. While there, many people came in for the to-go options. When we went to pay our bill, they also offered a $4.95 kids price. What? Not sure how they survive! Would definitely come back if I were a local.

    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.
