The orange Chicken!!!! It's AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS! The fried rice! Also the Best! And the portions, wow! I'm a big and a big eater! and they sure give you a full and complete meal! read more

This was my third visit to this restaurant, and unfortunately, I found that the service has declined each time. We ordered a Chinese vegetable dish that was recommended by the restaurant. The vegetables were so tough that they were difficult to chew. We only took a few bites and couldn't eat the rest. The staff acknowledged that the dish wasn't good and offered to cook us another vegetable. However, I believe they should have replaced the dish at no charge or refunded it. I also found several of the dishes to be overly salty. On the positive side, the roast duck and BBQ dishes were very good. I also ordered the two-meat combination that was pictured on the overhead menu . It showed with rice. However, when the meal arrived, it did not include rice. The actual dish did not match the menu photo, which was disappointing and misleading. For me, great service is just as important as good food. While the restaurant has some excellent dishes, the declining service, inconsistent food quality, and the way these issues were handled mean I probably won't be returning. read more

Food is always fresh. I have visited a few times this time on the menu the orange chicken and green bean chicken combo plates were for the win. Food comes out hot and fresh and fast. The strawberry, mango and passion fruit teas are so good makes you want to order one to go. Service is always nice and very helpful everyone is always smiling. The located on the corner of a huge parking lot but the space makes it feel as if it's a diamond in the rough. We are always seated quickly and the tables and facilites are always clean. We will see you again in a few weeks. read more

It was surprising but also not surprising to see an authentic Chinese restaurant (also locally owned) right across from a Vallarta in Modesto! This place was a hole in the wall, and honestly blew me away after we covered different things. I liked how nuanced the environment was upon entry of the restaurant -- it made me and my partner feel at ease and at home. The table and the chairs looked rather new, with the chairs already pushed out for any and all incoming parties. The hospitality displayed utmost professionalism at the best of the servers at this restaurant were very attentive to not just our requests, but also, every person that was dining in. We asked for the three entree plate, and to my surprise, the ingredients were quite less than what I expected. For $13 it did not come as a surprise though -- with the rice and drink it was actually a budget friendly meal for each person. The ambience seemed really brand new, and the brand was on point with everything they had inside of the restaurant. I'll definitely be back to try more forsure, the next time that I'm around the Modesto area. read more

This was our first time trying Fat Boy Roasted Delights! We look forward to going again. My husband ordered a 3-meat bbq combo and the meat tasted sooo delicious. The duck was my favorite! The only note was the Bok Choy was cold and I think that could've been on purpose but we would've loved it warm! The service and staff were great and we just loved the feel of the restaurant. The location is great and right off of the freeway if you're driving through Modesto! Really cool place to stop and eat. read more

OMG.....when I first saw the outside, I assumed I was going to disappointed but I WAS SO WRONG. When I stepped in I thought I was walking into a Chinese restaurant in SF or San Jose (large asian community). The ambiance was to perfection. The photos of the duck and bbq hanging in Yelp photo don't do justice. When you see it in person AND smelling the food inside multiplies the experience 10x. The server communicating with customer in Chinese and makes it perfect. I ordered 3 item combo (soy sauce, chicken, spareribs, and honey sauce, and roasted duck). At first I thought they were frugal with portion but I understand I chose the most expensive bbq on their menu (roast duck +$1.00). The extra cost for the roast duck was worth. I can genuinely say, I'm coming back here for my future lunches and dinner. My family can go some other Chinese restaurant, but I'm coming back here. Quality of service:A+++ Quality of food: EXCEPTIONAL Price: $-$$ (won't burn a hole in your wallet) Note: don't let the outside entrance deceive you. Go in and check this place out for yourself. read more

First time here and we came with a bit of an appetite. We were seated and greeted right away. The restaurant has nice character. It took us a little time to decide exactly what we wanted. Then decided on a few appetizers. Appetizers- Cream cheese wontons Fried prawns Cucumber salad Entrees- Garlic chicken Barbecue pork chow mein House fried rice Half roasted duck Salt and pepper pork chops We enjoyed everything, it was scrumptious, but could not finish at all. A few to go boxes were necessary. And we're delighted with the experience. I do recommend fat boy, roasted delight read more

This is a new place we tried a few days ago. I wanted to try it because I have never had Duck before and they had roasted duck. This is a Cantonese style Chinese Food restaurant. Not sure what the difference is from regular Chinese food? Anyhow, the the roasted duck was good, but since I have never had duck before, I had nothing to compare it too. The sauce they served over it was excellent with a ton of flavor though. All of the rest of the food is your standard Chinese fare/dishes etc., except they roasted a couple different protein/meats here. One thing I will say, and found odd, is that they have combination plates, but if you want to substitute an item then it is no longer a combo, it becomes ala carte. It isn't like choosing from Panda Express. Something else of note. The water they use to prep things and cook in the Wok, tastes like unfiltered tap water and it translates to the food. If you are used to filtered water you can tell when water isn't being filtered. The rest of our food was just okay and nothing to write home about. There are better Chinese food options in Modesto. I was hoping this new place hit it out of the park. It wasn't awful on the standard dishes like chow mein, but the unfiltered water seemed to take away from the flavor. read more

Terrible all bones bad flavor slow service hated it there was 3 of us none ate the food 100 bucks wasted

My husband I decided to stop here after a long day and got food to go. I forgot to take pictures of his food. Upon entry we erected handed printed menus that had some items on the menu crossed out. Despite not having 3 items that menu had such a large variety. We were very pleased with our food portions even though our food was in to go containers. They really packed it. I loooooved the salt and chili pepper wings. They were crispy and delicious. My bbq combo plate was fantastic. When I was done with my food, you would've thought the container was already put through the dishwasher. No crumbs. I highly recommend to go check it out. We already discussed that we will be returning to try some other times on the menu. (: read more

OK, the positive reviews about this place must be their friends or people they paid to post good things because this food is terrible ,barbecue ribs might just call barbecue bones. The roasted duck might just call it fat duck the potstickers I don't know what the hell they're doing with those the fried rice chow mein. I could've done it myself and I don't even know how to cook please people don't waste your money. read more

Good Chinese bbq which, hard to find in the area. Best thing here is probably the duck and the pork belly, but everything is decent. Servers are friendly and professionally, ample seating is provided, and you can see the chef cut the meats in front of you. read more

First time visit and pleasantly surprised. Service was prompt and courteous. We had the orange chicken and pork fried rice, very good! Probably the best fried rice I've ever eaten. Will definitely return. read more

After trying this gem of a place my family and I went for another round, and every single item we tried was sensational. We started off with an order of potstickers that were nice and crispy, then we got half of a roasted duck and that was fantastic. The skin was crispy which is something I personally enjoyed. They pair it up with a delightful sauce. Then we shared an order of their Mongolian beef and that was outstanding. The beef pieces were so good and tender. Definitely will be ordering those 2 item's again. We also tried their garlic chicken which was great. The sweet and sour chicken was also very tasty and so is their orange chicken. All of their fried meats are made to order. The meats are freshly made I can tell. I worked at a Chinese restaurant so I consider my self a connoisseur. With that said I am picky with Chinese fried meats, I hardly ever order those kind of dishes because they seem boring to me like Panda Express. I like authentic Asian cuisine and this establishment is knocking it out of the park. This is one of those places that my husband and plot on what we will be trying the next time we go because it's that freaking awesome. I also tried their HK milk tea, and that was wonderful. I thought they were going to make it with regular black tea and they used jasmine tea which was a wonderful surprise. This is going to be my go to drink at this restaurant. Overall I highly recommend this fantastic restaurant. Fast friendly service, lots of parking, clean eating area and their restrooms are also spotless. read more

Tried this restaurant for the first time today. The atmosphere and decor is very plain, no frills. Lighting is bright, music is a little loud to be background. The menu is posted on the walls like a takeout spot, but there are tables available. Woman waiting tables told me to find a table and she would get me a menu. I ordered a simple combo of roast pork and chow mein. It wasn't bad, the roast pork had good flavor. The silverware was just a fork. I sat down with my hot tea and food, then the waitress asked me to move to an adjoining table because a bigger party was coming. (4 adult, 2 infants) The waitress grabbed my stuff and just moved me. I've never had this happen before read more

Pretty good roast duck for central valley. Good service. Good flavorful roasted duck. Big portions so that's a plus. Recommend for a central valley asian spot (very few authentic Chinese food around here) read more

Great to now have something like this locally without having to drive far out of town perhaps to the bay area for roast porks, roast ducks, steam chicken, etc. My first visit here and nice to find plenty of parking spaces and friendly staffs. Clean and cozy new little place! The cost of roast pork and roast ducks are competitively affordable compared to the bay areas. However, I was a bit surprised to see that the price for Salted baked chicken or Scallion chicken (or similar kind of chicken) is at $17 (half chicken) or $32 (whole chicken). Guess, I may need to still drive to the bay areas for this because (for a few dollars more) at $23.99 for bay areas, I can get the WHOLE chicken, as opposed to half the chicken here. read more

I loved everything. I got a matcha and garlic chicken and chicken broccoli and pork chow mein. What I really like about the matcha is that it's more earthy than sweet, I drink a lot of matcha. And it came in a to go cup already which is nice because I couldn't finish it before leaving. Fast and friendly service too with large portions of food. The chow mein chicken plate cost $11 and the broccoli chicken cost $13. And its cans of soda instead of fountain which I like more. read more

We love going to this place. Very clean..Every dishes that we had tried were delicious. I would have given a 5 * if it wasn't for a low staff. They only had two staffs ans that take your orders, bring your orders and make your drinks, clean your tables and bring your check. The girls are very nice though. The last two times we were there, we had to wait 30 minutes for our check. Maybe the owner would hire more staffs. read more

5 stars to even the playing field for the unfair 1 star reviews. I would be upset too but 1 star is a little harsh for a place that just opened up. Should they have been more prepared and answered the phones, sure. Idk why they closed early during those early visits; however, the main items are a labor of love and is not easy to produce. Could they have been open and sold what they might have had, sure. But if they did that, it would have possibly been a review for running out of this or that. There are a lot of variables when opening a new spot so let's practice grace and give these guys a chance. We have to drive out of town for items like this, let's be understanding while they work out the kinks so we can have places like this within our own community. There's are a couple of local spots that sell duck: dynasty and Viet Express but nothing like this new restaurant. This was my first visit and I think a 3.5 for my overall experience is fair number for now. I ordered a whole roasted duck and an orange chicken combo with chow mein and fried rice to go. Rough rating for my carry out order: Duck 4.5 (sauce was on point) Fried rice 4 (actually had flavor!) Chow mein 3 (standard) Orange Chicken 2 (mild flavor and lacked crispness. I know it was take out however I only live about 7 mins away. I've had bomb Orange chicken that was delivered and remained crispy even when covered in sauce. Panda slapped on their Orange chicken unfortunately lol. With that said, I'll update when I dine in and see if that makes a difference) Go try it for your self and leave a fair rating for this new establishment. Give them time to figure things out and hopefully take our reviews into consideration. I'll be back to try some other items. There's a lot to chose from. read more

Came here feeling really excited to try after hearing about it. Finding the location was a little difficult. Address on Yelp took us into the shopping center but not the exact location. Called the restaurant and got the direction there! We came with a party of 6, the staff was nice enough to push two tables together to fit us. We each order our own entree, ranging from either 1 to 3 portion of meat with either rice or noodle (choices being roast duck, Char Sui, Soy sauce chicken, ginger chicken, or roasted pork). My kids got the chow mein and fried rice. Unfortunately, we were all quite disappointed with the quality and taste. The meat did not have much taste... the roast duck skin was also soft and somewhat soggy. The duck is suppose to be roasted.. it shouldn't be soft and soggy.. the char Sui was flavorless to me.. it had the color to it but no flavor. The soy sauce chicken barely had soy sauce taste.. the chicken was ok, it was the better one out of the other meat. The fried rice needed a little bit of flavor so we added the white pepper which really helped. The chow mein didn't have the wok taste to it.. curry fish ball wasn't bad.. could have cooked it a little longer to get the taste in the fish ball instead of just having the curry poured on top of it.. At the end of dinner, after getting the check and giving them my card to pay, it took them 15 mins to bring my card back with the receipt. I looked and noticed they charged me 20percent gratuity even though it was not on the check. This should have been transparent on my check... needless to say I am disappointed. read more

We were sat immediately, ordered hot tea, was very good. Ordered the 3 meat plate, with chow main. Spareribs, Duck and sliced bbq pork. The whole plate came out quickly but cold. We asked the waitress if it's supposed to be cold, she said "no" She offered to reheat it. Microwave I'm sure. We also ordered Dumpling soup, and sweet n sour chicken. All of which came out piping hot! I must say, the flavor of everything was delicious. I would recommend the restaurant to upgrade their pineapple, in the sweet n sour chicken. We could tell it was low grade. Ribs, sliced pork and Duck were cooked well and tasted great. We will definitely be back. Worth a stop. read more

Great food and service. Have had their Roasted duck, BBQ pork and pork belly before and all were excellent. Showed up towards the end of service, and unfortunately they were out of most of their roasted delights tonight. However, their other dishes were equally great, including the brisket and tofu, sweet and sour tofu, sautéed green beans and Cantonese noodles. Highly recommend! read more

Bbq pork and pork belly are so good! Chow fun was good as well. We will continue to come back and try more.

Great service and reasonable prices. Fat Boy is the kind of old-school sit down Chinese restaurant where the portions are huge, the tables are always full of shared plates, and everything comes out sizzling hot and comforting. Think classic Cantonese-American comfort food with bold wok flavors and family-style dishes. read more

Food was ok. Waitress seems a little biased on who she serves and refills drinks . Tasted the food all day long. Probably won't go back.

On January 25, came in to buy bbq pork.got a piece and was reasonable price. I asked not to cut it only bc I like to slice my own. Brought it home, open it to cut it and let me tell you have of It was all fat!!!! Hardly any meat. I was so disappointed the fact that that's a rip off! Never been to a place that just gives you most fat- it's always proportional. Taste was good though. I hope next time that I don't get gypped. read more

Best customer service we received from Virginia. The restaurant has a very welcoming atmosphere. Most of staffs are friendly and attentive to your needs. Price is at a very reasonable, again "very reasonable " price range. So I ordered more to go. The food has a great blend of ingredients with a calculated right amount of seasoning that is not powerful but only amplifying the default taste of your meal. Wow. What a great representation. I can't wait to tell everyone and come back to bring my family. Thank you guys for serving us. Great job. read more

Finally there is REAL Chinese food in the Central Valley! The staff is friendly and the food is authentic(especially the deli/bbq) meats. You have to dry their honey bbq pork!

Portion size delivered- for two meats in one container and I don't eat pork so what the hell are you guys doing! It is a religious pref. Why would you mix meats together in first place when it was separate kinds of meats ordered . Second of all thin containers and charge is ridiculous. I could have had a whole family meal at @pandaexpress for that price. read more

You know flavor of everything just really wasn't that great. The service was wonderful. But I really don't think I'll go back we had the three different meats we had pork belly duck and boiled chicken. We also had fried rice which my daughter and her dad liked it I don't eat rice. And we also had Mongolian beef that was so spicy I couldn't even eat it!!!! The location was really hard to find really way in the back behind or on the long side Planet Fittness. I looked at the other reviews I'm like I don't think we have this kind of food to compare it to in town. I will not be going back and I don't say that lightly.., read more

Salted chicken with rice noodle soup Beef chow fun Scallion chicken Roasted duck Overall 4 stars Service 4.5 stars Food 3.5 stars Service was great today, everything came out quick. Food wise... it's tasty. 3.5 cause they ran out of crispy pork belly early again. Poultry: The ducks got flavor, it even came with a side of dipping oil in case you want a little extra. The scallion sauce for the scallion chicken wasn't too potent on ginger or scallion which was nice to pile up on the chicken for extra umami. I do prefer the salted chicken though. The meat and skin seemed to hold more from the salt rub. Whether you choose one or the other, they're both yummy in their own aspects. Noodles: The soup was simple light chicken broth, which is perfect for a rainy or sick day. The rice noodles were not the flat type but round and had a really nice bounce to it, would get it again. I recommend it with at least the salted chicken or roast duck. They'll give the broth a little extra flavor. Now for the chow fun: There was more meat than last time and the noodles are fresh... but it could use a little higher fire power to get that "wok" flavor punch. Last time their rice and noodles had that wok fire flavor making it was delicous. If they could keep that consistency of wok heat, it'd be perfect. read more
