Chinese Restaurants near El Dorado Hills

“It's a neighborhood authentic Chinese restaurant with a family atmosphere. I grew up in the Bay Area with access to the Oakland and San Francisco Chinatown, so I know what authentic Chinese food is supposed to taste like. We looked through Yelp and decided to go to this place, and we found a gem!“

“Regularly dine her for lunch, came here for dinner tonight. Absolutely love this place! I typically stick to the chicken dishes (cashew, lemon, general - all tasty!) but sweet and sour pork was a delightful treat with my combo dinner. Wonton soup is perfection every time.“

“Not sure why people are giving bad reviews to this Panda. My overall experience was perfect—no doubt about it. The food is delicious, the dining room and restrooms are clean, and the staff are friendly and always greet me with a smile.
😊“

“Ate here for dinner before going to the movies last week. Food was really good and the service was wonderful. Andy was very helpful with the choice of our food. Going back tomorrow with the family to celebrate our anniversary. We moved here from the Bay Area a year ago and this place exceeded our expectation.“

“I have been eating at Rice Express for 30+ years! The sesame seed chicken is our absolute favorite. They are so kind, caring, and make sure to get your order correct every time! They even offer military discount which is so hard to find these days! Best Chinese food with sooo many options to choose from! Thank you for your continued food service to the Folsom community Rice Express!“

“Wow!! The Bao is yum!!!! I also had Hot and Sour soup today that was amazing. A great selection of Tea too - sweetened and unsweetened! They were super nice and friendly! I need to bring back my family to try it! I am so excited about the good food!

Dietary restrictions: Had unsweetened iced green tea!“

“Never a bad meal. China City is the best!“

“Recently ate lunch here and was so pleasantly surprised! Our meals were made to order and you could see the cooking staff making the meals. Had Kung Pow Chicken, Won Ton Soup and a beef dish I forget. What I won’t forget is how delicious it all was. And generous portions! Needed to go boxes. This place is a hidden gem. It’s now on my radar. Hope people come in to give it a try! Really sweet staff and nothing bad to say. I love this place!“

“This was some of the best Chinese food I’ve had in Rocklin. All the people were extremely friendly, providing a cozy and peaceful environment to eat. We will definitely come back again and try out the best cow belly of the Sacramento area.“

“Dined with my co-worker before a play. Was an interesting decor and environment.
Definitely a family style dinner and since it was just 2 of us, it was too much.

I ordered veggies, but was not prepared for how much it was. It was also a bit plain, like very little salt or seasoning. We both also ordered individual rice orders and they brought it on 1 plate. Just A LOT of food.

Don't think I would go back unless I bring a large group.“

“So glad I tried the Mandarin chicken. It's really good. I got the lunch special, which came with egg drop soup.

The Mandarin chicken is battered chicken pieces covered in a sauce that reminds me of sweet and sour sauce. The chicken was hot and crispy and the fried rice that came with it was also delicious (had pieces of Asian sausages and BBQ pork, which I love).

The service is great too. Most of the seats are booth seating and the lady who took my order came back several times to check that I have enough water and that everything was good. Thank you!“

“Best sushi in El Dorado County! Papacito is a favorite, but we’ve never gone wrong with their rolls. 100% recommend!!“

“Showed up and they were closing early but they let me in to order. Extremely nice people and the food was outstanding. We had
2 egg rolls
Foil wrap chicken
Garlic Chicken
Sweet and sour pork
And chow mein.

We will absolutely be back.“

“The orange chicken is so good my soul ascends to heaven for a few seconds every time I eat it. we door dashed our food and they didn't give us THE CHOW MEIN FOR THE TOMATO BEEF. my orange chicken didn't come with steamed rice. Don't get delivery and instead get dine in or take out.“

“My first visit here. I enjoyed the vermicelli with chicken dish was nicely prepared and came with a serving of their sauce mixture. I thought it was very good and the chicken had a nice flavor and was not dried out. I nearly did not go in because the storefront was blackened and was a bit surprised when the door opened.“

“We enjoyed our lunch specials. Freshly prepared, hot and tasty! As good as Shanghai, I agree. Sesame chicken, shrimp in garlic sauce all really good. Friendly people and nice music.

Parking: In the Bel Air Shopping Center“

“Our power went out, but we were starving. Sooo… we called around to see who had power. I’m so glad we called Golden Palace.They were polite, prompt, and most importantly; the food (veggie egg foo young, sesame tofu ( soooo dang delicious!), chicken fried rice.Everything was fresh and excellent!!Thank you Golden Palace ?

Vegetarian options: Absolutely satisfying and scrumptious!“

“The service is very good and polite. In my opinion, the prices are higher than expected for this type of food, service, or atmosphere. I suspect the location contributes to the pricing. Lots of meat on top of the patties. It's under new management and still same good food.“

“Great food and experience. We have been to many hot places across San Franciso and this one is great for Folsom . Awesome it’s also locally owned“

“My wife and I came here for lunch. We ordered the curry chicken and the Mongolian beef with a side of cheese puffs and white rice. The Mongolian beef was just ok but the star of our lunch was the curry chicken. The curry chicken was great. The Cheese puffs is where the meal could have had some improvement, maybe a little chives or something, not just lava hot and runny cream cheese. But for the most part a good place to eat. I will try some other dishes next time.“

“This is really a hidden gem, best dumplings I’ve had in a long time. All dumplings are made by hand and are very delicious. Seeing is believing, and I saw the lady making the dumplings. I ordered wonton soup, which was very tasty. My wife ordered steamed dumplings that was delicious, and I ordered the fried dumplings. My wife also ordered Ube steamed buns 😁. The pickled cucumbers wasn’t spicy, but was flavorful. ( I can’t eat a lot of spicy foods) every once in awhile is ok. I took home my fried dumplings some of my wife’s steamed dumplings and the pickled cucumbers for an add on for our evening meal. From where I was sitting I could see Folsom Dam. Traveling 10 miles for some delicious dumpling was worth the distance.“

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Red Hot Chilli Pepper in Folsom, and it was an absolute delight from start to finish. Snehal, the manager, has truly worked wonders in creating a unique and vibrant dining experience. What sets this place apart is not just its Indo Chinese cuisine but also the warm and inviting atmosphere that permeates the entire establishment. Being the only Indo Chinese restaurant in the Sacramento area, Red Hot Chilli Pepper has carved a niche for itself, and I must say, it's a niche well worth exploring. The moment I stepped in, I was greeted by a welcoming vibe that instantly made me feel at home. One standout aspect of my visit was the impeccable service provided by Praveen, an exceptional waiter who went above and beyond to ensure my dining experience was nothing short of extraordinary. His fast and friendly service added to the overall positive impression of the restaurant. Now, let's talk about the food--a true highlight of my visit. I started with the TROPICAL "LYCHEE" MARTINI, a delightful concoction that blended the sweetness of lychee with the kick of vodka. It set the perfect tone for the culinary journey that followed. The Chilli Chicken, ordered at medium spice level, was an absolute winner. Cooked to perfection with just the right amount of spices, it left my taste buds dancing with joy. Following that, I indulged in some vegetarian momos that were a burst of flavor and texture. The softness of the momo paired with the delicious filling made it a memorable dish. The Calcutta Chicken transported me straight to the streets of Calcutta. The authenticity of the dish was unparalleled, and I appreciated the chef's dedication to preserving traditional flavors. To wrap up my meal, I opted for the detox tea--a refreshing and healthy choice that perfectly concluded the culinary journey. The attention to detail in both food and beverages truly sets Red Hot Chilli Pepper apart. The ambiance of the restaurant is another noteworthy aspect. It's evident that careful thought has gone into creating an atmosphere that complements the dining experience. The result is an ambiance that enhances the joy of savoring each dish. In conclusion, my experience at Red Hot Chilli Pepper was nothing short of fantastic. I'm already looking forward to my next visit to indulge in more of their delectable offerings. Kudos to Snehal, Praveen, and the entire team for creating a culinary haven in Folsom!“

“Best Chinese food comparable to restaurants in Hong Kong. Beautiful ambience. The owner and servers are kind and attentive. Great prices and numerous dishes to choose from. I highly recommend Lotus 8!

Vegetarian options: Spicy eggplant is out of this world. String beans are delicious!“

“Panda Express was fantastic! The food was hot, fresh, and flavorful—I had the Orange Chicken and Beijing Beef with fried rice, and everything hit the mark. Portions were generous, and the service was quick and friendly. The restaurant was clean and well-stocked, even during the lunch rush. Definitely one of the best fast-casual spots for a satisfying meal!“

“Delicious! The waitress in the evening is so sweet I didn’t catch her name. Long dark hair. Junior I think is a manager he’s so nice also. We have been there a couple times now and will continue to go back. The lady in the back we overheard her being a little sassy but maybe that’s her personality type. Ide suggest if someone isn’t doing something correctly being a little quieter when reprimanding because your customers can overhear you speaking. The food is absolutely delicious.“
