    Cream cheese wontons

    I found plastic in my food I tipped and everything I am not mad just concerned they usually are amazing and great service just don't think I will come back

    Don't judge a book by its cover. Where else can you get a combo plate that comes with a main, fried rice, chow mein and soup for $9-10.50 nowadays. The portions are huge and taste good. The service isn't the best or horrible. I came by with a group of 4 and we could've just shared 2 plates or even 3. Spacious restaurant with a lot of tables. Parking lot

    Combo #8 plate.

    Used to eat here years ago as China Royale, it was pretty good. Not impressed now. I had combo #8, it was mediocre Chinese food so I wont go back. Eggs rolls had too much of a fried wrap, egg foo young was bland, SnS pork too crusty as well. Ambiance and service was fine.

    Finally got myself to try a new Chinese restaurant, and was not disappointed at all. I placed a phone order for pick up on Thursday evening, was ready in about 35-45 min. The restaurant doesn't do dine in after 3pm, just an fyi. The service was quick and efficient, very nice over the phone and in person. The food was really good! The honey walnut prawns were pretty large and breaded well. The fried rice was delicious and so was the soup. The decor was slightly outdated, but I like it, give it an authentic Chinese restaurant feel. Will definitely be visiting again.

    This Chinese food is the real deal. I am so sick of having subpar ingredients at most places. This reminded me of the authentic, delicious freshly made Chinese food restaurants I used to go to with my family and my grandparents as a kid. I'm glad I read the reviews and took a chance because like a lot of them said, don't judge a book by its cover. I don't know if it's typical, but the woman waiting on us was the only person serving, busing, handling to go orders, closing everybody out. There was a large party there in top of that. So it was a slower paced lunch service but the food was so good, we didn't even care. I immediately started texting all of my relatives that used to go out for delicious Chinese food with my grandparents to tell them to give this place a try.

    4 plates and one on trade

    The food it's so good the only problem was that my order was not what I ask for. I want 2 plates for chow main and the meat. And look what I got 4 plate and one on trade

    Garlic chicken combo meal for $11!

    Does anyone know of a Chinese restaurant that is able to fix old style Hong Kong pan fried noodles... soft on one side, pan fried on the other about size of spaghetti? Sunrise kitchen in Fresno Clovis / Kings canyon would prepare this perfectly

    Have you called Beijing or Dynasty? Those are the best in town and the most authentic (I grew up in San Francisco) in my opinion.

    Came to Dynasty Garden after doing a quick "dim sum" search in Modesto. I had been craving dim sum…read morefor some time and since we were in town, I figured why not try somewhere new to me? Walking in on a Saturday afternoon (it was almost 3PM when we entered), you're met with a check-in counter. The inside is decorated much like a typical Chinese restaurant: round tables w a lazy susan, dark moody carpet, and infrastructure/roof tiling on the back wall that makes it look like we're dining right outside a traditional cafe in China. We were quickly seated and brought a regular menu and a dim sum menu. I liked that the dim sum menu contained pictures for easy point and order. But instead of pointing like a normal person, I brought out my broken Canto to order and I think I impressed uncle enough to get a complimentary bowl of egg flower soup lol. We ended up ordering: - Orange chicken lunch special: this comes with white rice or you can upgrade to fried rice or chow mein for an extra dollar. SO upgraded to chow mein and the plate that came out was HUGE. Was not expecting such a large portion, but I am not complaining at all. The chicken was sauced perfectly and he said the noodles were aight. - Ha gow (shrimp dumpling): these had thicker wrapping, but the dumplings themselves were stuffed. Good flavor - Shu mai (pork and shrimp dumpling): meaty, yummy. The skins sorta stuck to the bottom container though - Fong zhao (chicken feet): super delicious, but only came with 3 measly claws - Ham sui gok (fried glutinous rice pork dumpling): fried mochi goodness with delicious meat filling (even if the filling was a little sparse) - Gou choy gow (chive dumpling): my personal favorite dim sum dish; the one here was not my favorite, but it did its job. - Salt and pepper pork spareribs: we ordered this as an alternative when they told me they were out of their pineapple custard bun (bolo bao)... don't ask me how I went from dessert to this, but I liked it. The meat was kinda thin, but the flavor was there. We happened to have our meal right when the staff was having theirs right behind us. So by the time we were ready for the check, we kind of sat around waiting for someone to check on us. Our total came to about $60. I noticed that 2 of the dim sum dishes were marked as "large", at about $6.10 per dish. I wish this was posted on the dim sum menu somewhere... I only saw the $5.50 price tag. Overall, Dynasty Garden nostalgically reminds me of home, so I would definitely return.

    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!

The dragon roll was mediocre at best and the house chow mein was so salty while the chicken chow mein on the combo plate I ordered had no flavor. The orange chicken was okay but the fried rice on the combo plate was dry and had no flavor. I definitely won't come back here since I didn't think it was very good.

    I always order the same plate . sweet and sour . Chow mein too no rice…read moreDelicious .love the flavor and texture.wonderful workers so nice clean too

    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.
