Friendly House

I've been eating the food from Friendly House for years. We've been supporting them with to go orders since Covid. I am so glad they are doing in-house dining again because the meal I had a couple weeks ago was probably the best from them in years. It was perfect. Everyone in my party was happy. Fresh, hot, and clean. Service was friendly and helpful. I can't wait to go back.

December 20, we found ourselves in Turlock again doing errands and nothing really sounded good for lunch, but then we both went "Chinese" so we went back to Friendly House because the week before we were very pleased with our meal and service.The hubs decided on house chicken over rice.. extra spicy... and when I could see him wiping his scalp, that was a good sign... they got the spicy just right for him.My chicken with mixed vegetables came with white rice, but for some reason, I decided I wanted chicken fried rice, which was good, but probably in hindsight I would order it with the white rice instead .I did try a piece of my husband's house chicken and while his spicy was too spicy for me, I think I'm going to order that next time and just get it the regular spicy.Great service again and I'm sure we'll be coming back again.In fact, after the new year, a friend is visiting from out of state and we already decided we are taking him here!!!

Decided to try a local spot instead of a Chinese corporate and was not disappointed. I ordered the sweet and sour chicken over rice for takeout. I received a big portion of each. Thank you for a delicious lunch! I will be returning.

Could't give this place 3 1/2 stars. Hubby and I decided to have Chinese for lunch and since our usual place is closed on Sunday, I thought we'd give this place a try. A bit pricey. We ordered sizzling rice soup, Peking ribs and rice. Surprisingly it totaled $40. Trying to calculate $15 for the ribs and $12 for the soup which means the large rice is $10 and we also had ice water and hot tea which we could have been charged also. No itemized bill. Great food but a bit pricey. Not trying to be cheap but I want to make sure I'm not getting ripped off. Being in the San Jose Bay Area, I have been to many Chinese restaurants and I know good Chinese food that won't broke me and mediocre Chinese food that cost an arm and a leg. Good ribs and soup but next time we will try elsewhere.

The food is good - they have one of my favorite Cantonese dishes, the chow mein with the Hong Kong style fried noodles - and everyone is very friendly. The food is fresh and yummy. My favorite Chinese restaurant here in town.

They are AMAZING. This is our favorite Chinese food joint because they are so nice and the food is incredibly fresh and full of flavor. I took home a menu so I can call in when we're getting the craving for their food. They are fast, only takes about 15-20 minutes until our order is ready to be picked up. They also do dine in. I highly recommend this restaurant! Absolutely 10/10.

Togo orders only. No inside seating.But the food was really good and flavorful. I ordered a combo Pork Chow Mien, Shrimp & Broccoli and Foil Chicken. Everything tasted great didn't have to add soy sauce. They gave you a lot of food for $11.75.Next time I'm in Turlock, I will be stopping in.

Friendly House is a great place to grab a delicious lunch or dinner. Great prices for big helping of delicious food! Keep in mind they are takeout only at the minute, but have your food ready very quickly.

I had a terrible experience at Pho7 Anh, we ended up leaving after not even being Acknowledged for over 20 minutes! We went here to Friendly House for the first time and it was the best decision we made! We were seated and they took our drive order right away. The host/waitress even showed my daughter how to use chop sticks. She served out soup for us and it was amazing!! highly recommend! On the way out my daughter saw the Budha at the front counter and was told a little history about it too! Loved the Atmosphere here!

Whoa, this place has improved since it opened. I gave it 5 or so years before i went back and it is a winner now! You can now dine in and the staff backs up the restaurant name, reminds me of a place that went away years ago.Food is terrific, and thought the server spent the whole time conversing with another table, you can't be butt hurt...they might have been long time friends. Cloth napkins, great service, food I cannot believe is not MSG but so the sign tells us...best in Turlock and I've been eating chinese food here for 30 years.
