Orient House Restaurant, Modesto CA

Bento box was horrible small portions under cooked tempura and overcooked katsu and was cutting meat at the front counter will not be back

Easily in the top 3 best Chinese food in Modesto! Great service, food is fresh and always delicious and consistent!

Disappointing, limited vegetarian options. Big “no substitutions” sign which sucks since what I wanted wasn’t on the menu.

Disappointed on the quality of food. It use to be good. It tasted reheated. If you dine in you get styrofoam containers. Paid $26 for 2 lunch specials; small portions overpriced!

Only went to this place because the two places next door were packed. Went inside and was empty, ordered at front desk, everything was served in Togo boxes nothing had good flavor. Cream cheese wontons had no cream cheese in them. Chow mein was all bran sprouts and no noodles, sweet-and-sour pork was all balls of fat, no lids for the to go cups either! Sweet and sour sauce was coagulated, I told server about that and she said that’s for its made… very disappointing will not return and regret going! Should have waited in line at other restaurants

Totally disgusting how they have turnout over these past few years! Order $70 worth of food and Quality sucks food is super greasy, ordered two orders of shrimp and they were smashed in the box and full of grease! People dont care anymore about serving good food! Never will l eat here again!

A great food from a friend’s restaurant. Been dining there for 25 years. Great service from great people.

I had high hopes but this place was not what i expected. If youre looking for Japanese food this is not the place to get it. It was overpriced, had small portions and just overall dissappointing. If youre looking for cheap chinese food then this is it.

Allen and his server Eddie always over deliver. Great Chinese and Japanese cuisine. Hint: be sure to try a sushi roll as well!

Shocked!

I received 1 freshly cooked shrimp tempura (Golden tan & soft). And 2 obviously refried shrimp from cancelled orders (Dark, double fried, dry rubbery shrimp inside). Performed the "noodle test".

If noodle prepared at the same time & fresh, texture would the same. Moist. Upon being pinched.it would break with little pressure.

My dish was loaded crunchy hard stiff deep brown noodles noodles mixed with some fresh cooked soft noodles. Trashed it all.

Good food! Very good service! Now we are taking out only, but before the covid, we love to have our dinner in the cozy restaurant.

Food good and hot. Service lousy. Hostess let friends inside to sit, no masks required. Don't know if I'd go there again.

You Gotta Try the Fried Garlic Chicken Wings, they are crunchy and flavorful and FRESH! My other favorite order is the DRAGON ROLL! The Sushi and sashimi were very tasty and I really loved the fried Tofu. Also the Shrimp with Vegetables was very good. Friendly Staff and quick service, and a reasonable price!

Was really looking forward to trying their food. Ordered the family dinner for three. Was disappointed that I would not get soup because it was a to go order and they told me I would have to order their large container of soup in order to get the soup that was supposed to be included in the family dinner. Ordered Almond chicken, was informed that they were out of almonds, so they could substitute cashews or peanuts, chose cashews. Was disappointed in the amount of chicken in the fried rice, chow mein, and the almond chicken. Almond chicken had more onions then anything else. Our dipping sauce for the wontons and fried prawns was like jelly instead of a liquid. Overall, the quality of the food was not worth the money I paid.

Friendly and responsive staff. The food was "good". Looking forward to coming back to get a better feel for the flavors.
The ramen I had was decent, nothing to rave about.
The decor is nothing what you would expect from the looks outside. Great interior design.
I look forward to giving a more complete review, later - I'm not giving up on this place.

I have tried 3 dishes. 2 Japanese and 1 Chinese. Miso and egg drop soups. All was really good and the service was excellent.

Chinese food and the atmosphere at this location is great.definitely one of the best places in the area.the staff was friendly and sociable.

They have a great selection of Chinese and Japanese food. Quick service with a smile. Their sushi is the first I have tried and it was spectacular. The waitresses are patient and Courteous.

A favorite place for delicious Chinese food. Went there on a Saturday. The service was very kind and attentive. It has an awesome feel to it.
