So many items that we crave here! Ramen is the best! Pot sticker appetizer. Tonkatsu is the bombgatzu!! Love the Bento box. The service is also genuine and always exceeds our expectations!! They have been in business here for over 25 years! Cozy inside seating with outside seating to enjoy the spring weather....really appreciate this place

Was is town for a collectable card show, found this place on yelp and went since it was close by. Ordered the garlic chicken with fried rice and chow mein combo plate as recommended by the owner. Food was just as good as it was priced. No frills just straight to the point good western chinese food. The service itself was superb A+ 5/5 which made the food taste even better. I would recommend going here if your in the area, you wont be disappointed.

I came for Tempura but they did not have tempura veggies. We decided to stay and we don't regret it. The food is delicious. The service is great. Relaxing place to eat.

We are in town one night early for an event. We took a walk from the hotel and found this amazing place. They have my favorite role of the lion King. We tried the barbecue pork Ramen noodle soup. Family business great service say hello to Jorge.

Delicious food with a wide variety of options on their menu. Staff is friendly and thoughtful - we have a family of 6 and never once were lacking of anything. Their parklet was clean and a perfect atmosphere for a quiet weekend lunch.

During a training in downtown Modesto I located Tokyo Express as a good spot for lunch. The first thing to note is people aren't wrong; this is a hole in the wall. There are tables inside but it was pretty packed during lunch, so plan accordingly. I ordered the Hot & Spicy Ramen and I left very happy. The broth had just the right amount of spices and the noodles were delicate and delicious. The egg was perfectly soft-boiled. The only item in the ramen I didn't care for was the broccoli, but that is because I think broccoli is a gift from Satan, so personal preference on that one. I knocked one star for the choice of serving receptacles. Most all of the take-out carriers and drink cups were Styrofoam. Recent legislation in CA banned Styrofoam so I was surprised to see it in use in the restaurant. Hopefully when their batch of Styrofoam products is up they will re-order a more sustainable item for their use.

It's been said again and again. This is a hole in the wall. Nothing fancy. Perhaps a tad messy. Definitely somewhat cluttered (stored empty cardboard boxes for larger to-go orders). There was one table outside that was occupied when we walked in. Maybe seven or eight tables inside. I think two were occupied when we walked in. The ordering scheme is simple. Go to the counter, read the menu, place your order, pay and then grab a table. To simplify things, one side of the menu features Chinese dishes while the other side features Japanese. The order taker/cashier/server was very friendly and probably the owner as well. We were on our way to a show, not starving but wanting something quick and warm to eat. We settled on a single order of Chicken Curry with Potato, Carrot and Onion over Steamed Rice. We asked for a cup of Ice Water to drink, and he insisted that he give us two cups of Ice Water. As we were getting ready to sit down, he rushed over and asked us to wait a moment while he wiped the table down for us. When our order was ready, he brought it to us in a styrofoam container along with two food trays, two set-ups and a soup spoon to use as a serving spoon. He also refilled our waters and brought us fortune cookies. For a simple Curry over Rice, this order was surprisingly good. The Potatoes and Carrots were cooked well, firm without being mushy. The Curry had a nice bite to it. Even the rice was of excellent quality. And that's one area where many restaurants make the mistake of trying to save cost by use inferior rice. Not here, it was delicious and the price of $12.79 including sales tax is ridiculously inexpensive. We have one more show at the Gallo Center for the Arts this season and I think we know where we're going to have a virtual feast!
