China Gourmet - Modesto: Discover Flavorful Authentic Chinese Cuisine

Overall this was a really great place. The food was very good and I really recommend the Kung Pao chicken. The combination plates are very well priced at $8.99 for most if not all that I remember. The foil chicken was most and flavorful. The place itself is small and could get crowded if it got busy but it was empty. It was pretty clean overall. You have to order at the register then they bring the food to you. Menu was well organized. Would like to come back to try more

I absolutely love going here. The amount of food you get for the price is like a steal and it tastes so good. I am always getting comments that the food smells so good from my coworkers. The lady at the counter is so nice. She always calls me when my food is done. Today I got lost due to google maps taking me the wrong way and when I called she gave me directions and was very adamant about finding me to give me my food. I don’t even get leftovers because my daughter finishes it off when I get home. Favorite food to get for lunch.

Been eating here basically my whole life (almost 40 years) and it's always been a favorite. That hasn't changed. Unfortunately what has changed is not only the prices but the portions. I understand we're all dealing with inflation. But the same exact orders I've been getting for many years have not only doubled (or more) in price - they've shrunk in size significantly. By at least a 3rd of what it was just a couple years ago. Wouldn't mind the price increase as much if we got a fair amount of food in return. I'll continue to support the restaurant because I do love the food. We just won't be ordering it as often and we'll have to cut some of our long time favorites from our orders. 5 star food with a 2 star reduction for cost per food amount

Food/Taste/Flavor: 3/5 - #14 combination of Pork fried rice, Beef chow mein, and sliced Bar-B-Q Pork. #18 combination of Pork fried rice, Pork chow mein, and Garlic Chicken. The portions are giant! The chow mein is not very good since it's only flavored with soy sauce and the bean sprouts don't feel cooked all the way down. The fried rice is surprisingly good but a bit on the oily side. The Bar-B-Q Pork was a bit dry and good use more sauce or flavoring but the garlic chicken was great! Service: 5/5 - quick service. Ambiance: n/a - ordered food to go. Value for price: 5/5 - food is okay but the pricing is great for the amount of food we got!

I ordered over the phone for Pickup: Beef Vegetable Stir Fry and Chicken Fried Rice. Tasted good just as I expected. Only thing I don't like is the typical chinese restaurant puffy beef meat. Their chicken meat is not puffy, so it tasted better. If you cannot eat oyster sauce (e.g. due to allergies to crustaceans), make sure you tell them so and to substitute oyster sauce with soy sauce for the fried rice and substitute brown sauce with white sauce for the stir frys. That's what I did, and the nice lady who took my order made sure the food was done to my request. Pricing is good.
