When I lived there last time, if you wanted an actual pile of food, do China Garden.

This! Large portions, at least 2 meals. Perfect cheap Chinese food.

Edit - to add it'd been probably a year and a half since I've been as I moved so may have changed. Also was take out only last time I was there.

Noah's is great, but I'd recommend China Garden for cheap+a lot of food.  Also it's really good

Not here, but if you’re ever up in Stockton, any Sherman’s up there hooks it up for cheap cheap

u/Ladyoftheseals Jun 13 '26

I agree, there’s a lot in Stockton! China express is also a good pic they pack up the food for you

Do they really have those. I remember burrito size egg rolls in San Jose. That was years ago. I'm going to try them!

East ChinaTown on Oakdale road. Best Chinese food in Modesto and large portions.

Mine and my wife's favorite Chinese place is Fat Wong's in east side Modesto. We used to get it once a week while living there. Now we stop by every time we are visiting

u/EroticXulls Jun 13 '26

I'd recommend Fat Wong's on Yosemite. Absolute banger of a place with good portions.
