50 Best Chinese Restaurants near North Highlands

“I visited Wong's Canton Chinese Restaurant on a Thursday, a little after they opened around 1130 am. This was my first visit. The hostess was very kind and sat us at a table. My friend and I ordered two different lunch combination plates ( #2 and #3) to share. There was so much food that my friend was able to take the uneaten food for her husband.
The food was delicious. If you try Wong's, make sure to bring your appetite.“

“They deserve to be busier but I’m glad it’s nice and quiet. Great service, very good food, clean and comfortable. The fried foods are done absolutely perfectly, not over greasy, crisp and moist on the inside. I do prefer the lemon chicken over orange bc the sauce on the orange was too much like sweet and sour and had no spice. It also needed some kind of fruit or vegetable to break it up but I am very happy with the lemon chicken. Glad we found this cute little hole in the wall.“

“Let me clear this first food fresh and really good but if I am spending $16 I think there should be enough food in my plate food is good people good but good in the plate ? Very little. Over all happy with my purchase taste wise but still hungry.“

“Ordered a chicken bowl online and picked it up in the store. My order was ready quickly and was OK. The rice was slightly undercooked and slighly dry, but just slightly, so I couldn't give them a 5 star. Portions are smaller and more expensive, just like most places now. Staff was nice and attentive. There are several urban campers in the area, and overall not a nice place to hang out, but I think that is most of Sacramento.“

“Service was great! I had the Asian pear cocktail, delicious! We were sat in the back booth so it was quiet and not too loud.
We got the combination appetizer. Got a little bit of the favorites.
I didn't realize it was family style. So I got the immigrants beef. It was served with zucchini.
The hot and sour soup had great proportions of ingredients.
Service was great!!!“

“the best place for lunch in sacramento been coming here for years and years the food is always amazing and the staff is top of the line this is a sacramento staple a must try place to come eat and visit i promise come try there food and you will always come back for more“

“Worth the wait. Friendly staff. Food comes out quickly. Excellent food.“

“Friendly staffs and pretty good dimsum as good as the ones I got in HK and Toronto. These coconut bunnies definitely brought back childhood dimsum memories. They also have an impressive looking mango sago dessert which we didn’t get to try“

“Great to-go place. Huge portions. Ask them for their recommendations on what to order. Every time I go and ask them what’s good , it’s always super tasty! Love the special wonton soup. Just ordered it a few minutes ago and I’m looking forward to it. 😋“

“This place rocks. If you want authentic pancakes with your Mu Shi Pork and if you want authentic potstickers that taste yummy this is the place for you! Everything I ate was good and reasonably priced.

Unfortunately their AC was out today and it was 106 degrees in my car. I didn't want to give them a 4/5 for atmosphere, but I had to honestly.

These are great people!!! Support the ma & pa businesses when they are better than 99% of what's in Sacramento County!!! Support Szechuan Garden! <3“

“Nice food, quality service and clean“

“Had them twice and both times have been great. I needed one more visit to make a judgment call. First visit was kung pao chicken and it was very delicious. But I needed to try a fried plate like general chicken. The general chicken is fire! It’s not all breading! You’re getting full on chicken and the sauce is crazy! Very delicious. They are the truth no doubt.“

“One of my favorite Chinese food restaurants! The food is great with a large selection of lunch specials to choose from. Delicious food with large portions. This time with the sweet and sour chicken lunch special that also comes with a cup of hot and sour soup. Super stuffed! 😁😋😎“

“This is my new favorite Asian restaurant it’s far from home but so worth the drive. From the decor to service to the amazing food…. I can’t say how refreshing it is to be able to eat clean healthy Asian cuisine. The owner is Bill and I’ve met him twice now. He’s passionate about his restaurants, yes I said restaurants plural. He let me know there’s one in Eldorado Hills and Folsom as well as this one I’m reviewing in Citrus Heights on Sunrise. It’s beautiful, clean, and the food is so very delicious! Highly recommend and give it 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“This place has been around for 59 years and counting. It was my first time there and I ordered the shrimp fried rice and got some beer all in one spot! I love it. The food was great and the service was too. The owner was very nice and helpful.“

“I'm always scared to try new places. The reviews were good so I decided to give them a try. Worth the 5 stars. W all had different plates and my kids said theirs were really good. They give a lot of food. I'll definitely have this on my list of to go places.“

“This was my second visit, and the food was just as good as the first time. I ordered the sashimi, oysters, octopus, hand rolls, and edamame. Everything was fresh and delicious, especially the sashimi and oysters. I came with my daughter, and she had a great time too. The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming, which made it easy to enjoy our meal as a family. We’ll definitely be back again.“

“Our homestead is within walking distance, I’ve tried most of the different options and not been disappointed. Huge portions Wonton soup is great and the shrimp chicken and pork dishes are excellent chow mein and bbq pork fried rice is very good.“

“I have been searching for a new place I love and this may be it! Everything was delicious! We had Mongolian beef and sweet and sour chicken combos. The noodles were great, meat perfectly seasoned, and perfect crisp on the chicken. Will be back to try more.“

“The amount of food given during the lunch special is definitely worth your money. We had the orange chicken special with fried rice and chicken broccoli. All come with egg drop soup and one veggie egg roll. Great service. Enjoy!😋“

“HOW DARE you guys close on Sunday and have a day off. Just kidding LOL. We were craving Prime Wok this Sunday and my wife and I were joking it was closed, and it was actually closed.. 😂 😭

Thank you guys for the great food, see you guys Monday lol. 20 stars, 100% recommend this place 😋“

“Very good.“

“excellent old school Cantonese food! if I'm in the area I always make sure to do a huge takeout order and bring back to the Bay area!“

“Total hole in the wall dim sum spot downtown that's always worth stopping in for some great food. Youu gotta get in early and with cash- they won't take a card and run out of nearly everything by late linch. The pork bao and sesame balls are amazing. Pretty solid menu ranging from dim sum to entres and side dishes- but again, their dim sum menu is what I'd recommend. The egg rolls are greasy, but if crispy greasy egg rolls are your thing- can't think of any place I've had better.“

“Went there for a Tuesday lunch with a group of eight. Fortunately one in our party spoke Cantonese and was familiar with the many choices. The food was served quickly and fresh. A bit more expensive than a standard Chinese restaurant menu, but definitely more authentic and tasty. Service was quick and efficient.“

“This is one of those “hole in the wall” spots with really great food and decent prices you don’t wanna miss! We stopped here on a whim, and walked in to a completely empty unassuming place where they had an s Warriors game on TV (which we loved as Dub heads lol) and sat down. We ordered honey walnut shrimp (YUM) and a variety of other dishes that were really, really great! We walked out full with enough food for dinner both of us and lunch for him the next day 😂 Definitely going back - I keep thinking about that honey walnut shrimp and the pork fried rice!“

“Great spot for a classic Chinese meal! The portions are huge and the prices are very reasonable for the amount of food you get. Everything tasted fresh and hit the spot. A solid 4/5 experience—definitely worth checking out if you're looking for a satisfying, affordable dinner.“

“We decided to try this place on a whim since we pass by it diving to our gym all the time. We ordered pork fried rice, pork chow mien, general Tao chicken, and Mongolian beef. 2 adults and one very hungry teenager ate and we had enough for left overs for all of us the next day. The food was the best Chinese food I've had in a while and definitely the best tasting in the area. Portions were generous, staff was super friendly, place was clean... what more could you ask for? We're already ordering again since my son requested it for his birthday dinner. This is now our go to for Chinese.“

“Been coming here for years and years. Great food line choices - fresh and appealing, very nice people/staff, comfortable seating and atmosphere. ?????“

“Amazing pho and I appreciate that they take a student discount for Sacramento State students. My friend and I used to go to other pho places that would be very busy and would forget requests that we would have, but this location would be very attentive and remember if we had asked for more water, limes, etc. I love the calm vibe and it is so relaxing after a long day at work.“

“This was a decent, quick dumpling place. Not the best around, but not the worst! Would definitely try again for take-out. I had the pork & shrimp dumplings as well as the chicken & corn, costing 33 dollars after tax. Both were tasty and served hot. Serving sizes are generous for the price, and one serving of dumplings is plenty for one person. Packaging was cute as well, I appreciate it wasn't served in some giant styrofoam box“

“Went with family on a Saturday afternoon around 1pm. Great restaurant, amazing food, family owned and operated. The girls were so kind to my kids and sat with them, talked to them, and kept them entertained. They went above and beyond to make us feel welcomed and comfortable after a long morning and it made our day!“

“Drove by this place for years and finally tried it out. Got a lunch special and the price was very good for soup, egg roll, chow mein, shrimp, tea.

Food was great. Portions big--typical of Chinese food. Value can't get any better than $14 for everything I listed above.“

“I’ve been here twice now and I can’t believe how good it is. I can’t say that I know what authentic Chinese food is, but the taste is very different from the usual Chinese-American places. It reminds me of places in Chinatown in San Francisco.

I had the Kung pao chicken and Chongqing chicken (which already tells you that it’s not your usual place) and they’re very flavorful while not being overtly sweet or salty. I also get an idea of a Chinese restaurant based on the hot and sour soup and this place makes one of the best in the area. It’s different enough to notice.

I highly recommend this place for anyone who loves Chinese-American food, but wants something a bit different from the 99% of the Chinese restaurants out there. And you can also have the usual chow mein or orange chicken if you want.“

“It has a small clean dining area.. I went with my vegetarian friend and we had the sizzling braised tofu with vegetables.. it was very flavorful (black bean sauce) and we had their mixed vegetables.. I really enjoyed the food, filled my plate three times and still had leftovers for home. They also had lemon water as well as regular water.. it was a hot day outside so the lemon water was very refreshing. I would definitely go again when I am in the area.“

“OMG!!! What a delicious discovery for me. I ordered online as this restaurant is one of the few that prepared BOK CHOY! YUMMIE and nutritious .
I found myself a GO - TO HUNAN RESTAURANT TO DINE IN AND TAKE OUT! Of course I ordered other items of my liking like orange chicken, broccoli beef, chicken chow mien. Quick service delicious foods to eat and choose from. 💯“

“We ordered food for pickup. Food was ready when they said it would be. Their wontons are really good and their vegetable chow mein. I’d highly recommend this place - there are so many Chinese restaurants in the area. This one is worth the drive.“

“Outstanding top quality entrees , excellent attentive service. Quiet peaceful environment.“

“I was waiting on a late flight and happened to fall right upon this place The owner (bar tender) is absolutely delightful. The whole crowd made me feel right at home. I will recommend this to everyone, when we are in Sacramento!“

“very good food and service every time we go in.. one of our favorite dining spots!“

“My wife and I visited for the first time yesterday and the food and staff was amazing. We had a lot of questions and the staff took their time to explain the different food items available. The food itself was delicious we ordered a few a things but the one that stood out to me was the fried pork chops which I had with beer and my gosh it was delicious!“

“The Egg Foo Young was amazing!! Big, fluffy, flavorful egg patties with bean sprouts and green onion, perfectly cooked. The accompanying sauce was delicious with carrot, zucchini, broccoli, onion, mushroom, bok choy, and celery. Also loved the Katsu chicken. Crispy on the outside, tender and juicy inside. Generous portions, reasonably priced. Also must give a shout out to the wait staff. Pleasant, friendly, and accommodating. Recommend.“

“The most generous people ever! I came in late and they served me to go with a smile! The Mongolian Beef was the best I've ever had, lots of meat that was tender, not overcooked and the Chicken String Bean was superb! The chicken was tender and the beans were as fresh as just being picked from the garden.
I'll be back, in fact I'm not going anywhere else! Oh, last comment, the price is very good!“

“This place is our go to since moving to the area 3 years ago. I feel confident in saying that this place is great and I recommend it. It is only to go, no dining in. The service is always super friendly and fast. The portions are large! Favorites are the orange chicken, tomato beef chow mein, honey walnut shrimp, house fried rice and brocolli beef. Yum yum! I love supporting this kind and yummy family business. It also feels very clean and the food is good quality.“

“always a 10 out of 10. love love love!!! they are so amazing!!! don't skip out on the massive fluffy pork buns and chicken and chive!!! if you are adventurous and want to try some of the amazing original plates!! the green beans will turn any sad day into a great one!!!“

“Thank you. Food was great. Service was great. Just to let you know, I think it's stupid that you're making me put 50 characters or more. I can say what I wanna say and send it you guys making me do 50 characters or more will make me not do this next time.“

“We had dinner on a Tuesday evening and the seats were only about half full, so the atmosphere was calmer and quieter than some other buffets. There were lots of staff tending the food and bussing the tables. The food was pretty good! I'd go back for sure. Lots of American options for people who don't like the international offerings.“

“They are very kind and accommodating. I requested to have the broccoli cooked very soft and no peas in the fried rice and they did it perfectly! I really appreciate it because it's the only way I can enjoy broccoli and the rice (digestive issues).

Prices are fair for the portions and I always have leftovers. And the flavor of the food is spot on!

Thank you Happy Inn! You're the best! I will be back again!“

“We have been eating at SG for maybe 40 years. We like Orange Chicken and Lemon Chicken, the Won Ton soup is great and they have eggplant that's the draw for us. The prices are great and the service is great. The atmosphere is better than many more expensive restaurants.“

“Food was sooooo good!! Will definitely go back.“
