My daughter was eating her salad when she found what appears to be a dead spider in her food. This is completely unacceptable and raises serious concerns about food safety and cleanliness. This is not just a minor issue this is a health hazard. No customer should have to worry about finding insects in their meal. I hope the restaurant takes immediate action to address this issue before someone gets sick. I would strongly advise others to be cautious.

Huge portions! Poke…read moreBowl Pelandale has quickly become one of my go-to spots in Modesto. They offer a large variety of proteins and toppings in their poke bowls as well as hot appetizers like gyoza, rangoons, egg rolls, and tempura. I typically order a Large Bowl with five toppings to split with my mom. We get the creamy shrimp, spicy scallops, octopus, and double salmon. The bowls are absolutely huge. I'd say the bowls are about three inches deep, and it's not just rice filling them! They are very generous with their toppings and don't shy away from loading them up with the seaweed salad and imitation crab too. They offer a bunch of sauces and mayo dressings that add a bunch of flavor. I also really enjoy their Kani Salad! It is a large portion that packs a lot of flavor. I always order ahead and the mean is finished before I arrive! I would say though that they are not the most consistent. Sometimes the octopus pieces are super hard and it grosses me out. One time they put ahi tuna in my bowl instead of the salmon. A few times they didn't include the sauce topping on my bowls. The interior of the restaurant is not the cleanest. There were some areas, especially around the drink fountain that look like the haven't been deep cleaned for a while. Regardless, none of these are major issues that would turn me away from eating there again.

Unfortunately on two different orders, I've found a piece of hair in my food. The last order has done it for me and this establishment. I understand that mistakes can happen, but this is a food safety concern that shouldn't be overlooked. Cleanliness and proper food handling are extremely important when serving customers. I hope management takes this seriously and reinforces hygiene standards with staff to prevent this from happening again.

I'm not sure why a few reviews commented on poor quality fish- at least for my experience, the fish were all fresh and delicious. Even the tuna didn't have the "fishy" taste and all were amazing. Free avocado too! Staff were superrrr friendly and attentive. Free yakult as well. This was an awesome find and I'm definitely coming back after roads trips in the future!

Me and my boyfriend were in the area doing errands and we were hungry. We came across this place…read moreand wanted to try it out. The interior is small with a couple of tables available to sit from. The menu was pretty easy to read and they had a variety of items to choose from! Medium Poke Bowl(5/10): For my base I got half kelp noodles and cucumbers. For my protein I got salmon, marinated tuna, and volcano tuna--mixed with spicy mayo and spicy poke house sauce. For toppings I had spicy tuna, spicy crab mayo, corn, green onions, masago, mango, kimchi, black tobiko, and pickled radish. I thought the choices I made were lackluster. I felt like there was a lot of kelp noodles, and it didn't add flavor. I didn't like the marinated tuna cause I felt like it was more on the sweeter side. The volcano tuna was super spicy, but the flavor profile was there. I think if I were to choose my protein again, it wouldn't be those options. Service(10/10): The worker was super nice and friendly. They were pretty fast and it looked like it was just one person working at the store. No complaints here. Overall, I don't think I'll be coming here again, but it was still worth a try!

The rice was cooked well, veggies were fresh, chicken was flavorful, and all the other toppings and sauce all worked well together. It was a world of flavors combined. The ONLY drawback that held me from giving Banh Mi Express a 5 star was the portion to price ratio. As stated earlier, I ordered a large, in which was a typical "meal prep" container. If that was the large, it made me think how small the regular size was. And to think it was basically $20 for a bowl -- thankfully it was delicious! I will definitely be coming back -- and I MUST try their sandwiches. I'm usually a sucker for Banh mi's.

DO NOT GO TO THIS LOCATION- YOU WILL GET SICK! If I could…read moregive this place 0, I would. The reviews definitely don't reflect the actual service and food at this location. Starting off, my best friend and I were in Modesto for Barnes and Noble to get some books for my son. This location being right next to the bookstore was convenient so we went inside. The young girl who served us looked disgusted the moment my best friend said she'd never eaten there and wasn't sure how to order. She looked at her like she was stupid and just said what do you want and was not helpful whatsoever. She got the small poke bowl and I got a small donburi bowl. After what took over 5 minutes for her getting our two bowls from us, she walked away after I paid and I had to ask another worker for a lid to my bowl. Whatever, service sucked, maybe she was having a bad day? We sat down to eat (still hadn't gotten the chicken tempura and gyoza I had ordered for my son). Before my son's food even was ready I had bitten into a very bad piece of shrimp tempura that tasted as if the inside of the batter was covered in mold. I immediately spit it back out into a napkin and just sat there about to throw up. I sat there thinking this is probably just a mistake and maybe I imagined it. Then my son showed me his chicken that he said he didn't want to eat. It was old, rubbery, did not resemble chicken at all, and had black stuff around the chicken under the batter. I went to the worker who was at the counter and told her what we had received. She didn't seem surprised at all, but more surprised I wanted a refund for the two items that were spoiled. No manager onsite, apparently they usually aren't there. She called the manager who did not answer the phone but proceeded to text the worker. Asking exactly what happened several times and then proceeded to say the black on the chicken is seasoning before it's fried, which is not true because the come pre battered and it was just old. I had accepted no refund on the chicken for the ridiculous excuse, but I wanted a refund on the donburi bowl at the very least. The manager asked her to open my napkin and send a pic of the shrimp!!!! THAT IS SO NASTY! That young girl does not get paid enough to be doing all of that. That is revolting! I ended up opening it for her so she didn't have to so she could and a pic. Then the manager stopped responding to her by text. That's fine, Manager, that's fine. You should've just given me a refund for your nasty ass food that was not edible. Now you'll be receiving a visit from the county health department as they were called the moment I left your restaurant because of the food being kept at room temperature, your dirty facility, and the spoiled food you're serving to paying customer. This idiot sent me into my Karen era and I do not even care. Don't mess with people's food. Good luck.
