    Chicken chow mein
    Carolina L.

    Wanted to try out a different Chinese restaurant. On our way back home we stopped by Houghson. This place has great service, food and it's so clean and very nicely decorated. The food comes out fast and delicious! Very much enjoyed this restaurant, it's now my new go to for Chinese food.

    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!

    I was born and raised on going to get chow mein after church. This is by far one of the best spots…read moreif not the best in the valley for flavor, texture and consistency. They have the BEST sweet and sour chicken i've ever had; never a bad piece and always the best flavor. You would be shocked to see sushi on the menu until you see the chef who is a master of his craft. I've tried most the rolls and am never disappointed in flavor, freshness or presentation. Easily placing the sushi here as good if not better than osaka. I put my pops onto this spot and i now can finally close our ever lasting debate of who has the best chow mein in the 209/Valley.

    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.

The moment we walked in, we were instantly disgusted. The meat trays were nearly empty with just scraps left behind. There were noodles hanging over the sides of the bar, and food was scattered all over the counter area like no one cared to clean or restock anything. As fast as we walked in excited to eat, we walked out even faster. My wife was absolutely adamant that we would not be eating here after seeing the condition of that food bar. And she was right. This was enough for us. I will never come to this place again. I wish I would have taken a picture of what we saw but we wanted to get out.
