    Great food and fast service! I wanted to give it 4 stars because I thought it was a little expensive but that was really my own fault. If you are looking for a dinner for 1 look at the menu in the restaurant, I don't think their take out shows the cheaper options. That being said I have to give this 5 stars because although what I bought was $12 it was definitely enough to feed 2 if not 3. The orange chicken was of the best I have ever had and I've had a lot of Chinese food. The portion was very generous and I was very satisfied.

    Flower City has been out go-to take out place for 20+ years. Their orange chicken is some of the best in town, and we literally did and side by side by side test with some of the higher rates places in town. Special chow mein or Special fried rice is the way to go as well. Have never been disappointed. Staff is and has always been friendly and polite. I'll drive across town to get take out from here. Excellent food that has stood the test of time.

    I Really Really wanted to give this place a great rating for my 1st experience with them but, they messed up my favorite Chinese dish. Singapore noodles had absolutely no flavor or seasoning whatsoever. Singapore noodles are usually so packed with curry flavors and spices that I eat them plain with no soy sauce or liquid amino. Unfortunately, not these noodles. I could have actually added table salt they were so plain. My guy got beef & broccoli 🥦 and his complaint that it was way more broccoli than beef. I asked him how was his food because it was my idea & my treat and we drove across town specifically to try their food. His response "It's ok". Not what I like to hear after spending $51 bucks on takeout food for the weekend. Potstickers were good but, there was no potsticker sauce for me. Only Chinese Musrd that I don't care for at all and some chili oil based sauce that didn't work. My Man had to pull out his sweet & sour sauce & soy sauce from the pantry for me to try & enjoy this meal. I also ordered Chinese Chicken Salad which was missing a few ingredients like toasted sesame and peanuts that add to the flavor of the dish. This salad was a huge bed of iceberg lettuce topped with sliced battered chicken cut into slices with the sweet clear dressing that you pour on yourself. Sorry Flower, not My Fave... We are used to more elevated flavors when we order Chinese so you can eat it without saucing it up and it tastes great without being doctored up.

    Sweet and sour chicken and pork over pan-fried noodles. The chicken was crisp and not all that tough nor flavorful, but the noodles really ruined the plate for me. Really weird aftertaste in my mouth with wayyy too much sauce for the serving size. Serving size was very reasonable though.

    The owners here are really nice folks. The food is pretty much what you'd expect for takeout both in price and quality. I used to visit it more but since I'm diabetic I have to be very careful my consumption of noodles and rice. I'll have to make visit again and then perhaps update this review.

    I've been coming here for nearly 35 years. The food is consistently good and the service always warm. I've eaten better Chinese food at fancy restaurants in the Bay Area, but this place is the best for cheap, quality takeout. I live miles away now but always come back.

    This is my go-to place for affordable take-out Chinese food. Big portions and not too greasy (that is the only way I can judge good from bad Chinese food) at a decent price. Not the nicest place inside, but great for take-out. We have tried many things on the menu and they have all been solid.

    Chow mein was plain noodles with no sauce or veggies or anything. Was like Ramen noodles fried a bit and pork was small and over cooked. Won't be going back

  • 4/5 Priscilla G. 5 months ago on Google
    This place is to go only. We live about 25 mins away, and our food was still hot. I just got pork fried rice and pork Chow mein and they were delicious. We also got the Kung pao beef and orange chicken. They were all delicious. The price overall was cheaper than what we've paid anywhere else.

    My personal favorite chow mein compared to all other Chinese food restaurants in Fresno. Been living here all my life, and no one matches how they make their food. Truly a gem of Chinese cuisine, and the portions are guaranteed to fill you up. Love how fast and on point they are for their orders too.

    First time customer. Quick service, HUGE portions, friendly and helpful staff. I shall return!

  • 4/5 Diane S. 1 year ago on Google
    Take out only...great value and quite a variety of dishes! Sure to order again!

  • 5/5 Ari E. 1 year ago on Google
    Always a solid pick, it's never going to be the fanciest or the cheapest place in town. But in my opinion they offer the greatest value. Lunch or Dinner they're quick and yummy.

  • 1/5 Black R. 1 year ago on Google
    Rude female who answers the phone asking anything else with that when I was still talking. Your food is definitely not all that for you to act like you got others waiting to order

  • 3/5 Carla G. 2 years ago on Google
    As a regular at Flower City was very disappointed at my last few orders over the past months. I always order Chicken Chop Suey Chow Mein. Lately the veggies and chicken are very scarce, mostly all noodles. Since they've raised their prices I expected to get more for my money not less. Time to find a new place for Chinese food!

  • 1/5 Joe D. 2 years ago on Google
