50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Orangevale

“Very pleasantly surprised. Dine in experience was nice. The food was so good! My husband and I both ordered the Mongolian Beef combination plate. I got with chow mein and he got it with fried rice.

The Mongolian beef had a nice flamely taste. I wish they cooked their chow mein the same way, but it was also good. Lots of garlic and spices.

Customer service was fine. Young waitress was nice and was at our table when she need to be.“

“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.“

“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.“

“Nice food, quality service and clean“

“No wait for a table, staff friendly and efficient, everything clean and folded napkins waiting for guests. Price was a little high for one person, but portions big enough for two.
I don't know what the special ingredient was in their foil wrapped chicken, but it added a subtle floral note that was tastier than any other I've had. In short, it was yummy!“

“Great customer service. We were greeted and both my wife and I were acknowledged, no weird staff like other places we been too . The food was delicious, this place was on point and the woman at the register was attentive smiling and a pleasure to talk to . And the prices makes sense .“

“My son and daughter-in-love told us about this place recently. I was in the area so I decided to try it. I am still eating here while I type this. The restaurant is located in an unassuming strip mall. We were greeted at the door and they said to sit wherever we'd like. The decor is nice and everything looks to be kept very clean. We ordered the orange chicken, house soecial fried rice and house special chow mein. I have never had better chow mein in my life!! The orange chicken was excellent as well. It was not that preformed, frozen chicken nugget slathered in orange sauce like everyone else uses. The fried rice was tasty too. The portions were very generous and the prices were very fair. If you haven't tried this place yet, you have to!! I can't wait to go back and try many other dishes.“

“The food here is great and the portion sizes are really big. You can easily feed 2 people on 1 meal, no problem. The service was quick and the food tasted great.
Food: We got the general chicken noodle plate and the Kung Pao chicken.

Came again and the portion sizes were still great. We got chow Mein with sesame chicken and Kung Pao.“

“This is my 2nd time here and it’s the absolute best place to eat. Before I had chicken vegetables and recently vegetables and tofu. I mostly eat vegetables and they offer a good portion of vegetables without skimping like so many other restaurants do. Not Bok choy. They work hard and are very attentive to their customers. Nothing but praise for this place.“

“Our second time dining here and the food and service is as outstanding as it was the first time..Jumbo Shrimp, Potstickers and BBQ Beef for starters.. Then Sweet and Sour Chicken, Chicken Fried Rice and Chicken Chow Mein.. So deliciously fresh.. We will 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.“

“A fine Chinese restaurant for me!
Serving an authentic and excellent food, specially dumplings and noodles!
You can also watch how they make those fresh shu-mai/wonton.
The place is in demand when we get there one Friday night, so, go on line for table reservations in advance so you won’t wait for 30 to 60 mins as we experienced for the first time. But the food is worth waiting for!“

“Every dish from this restaurant is both authentic and very well prepared. Highly recommended for Chinese enthusiasts, foreigners, and simply those looking for some good food. Excellent service, delicious Asian cuisine, and a great night out with friends/family.“

“I have been here before and enjoyed the food. Their po-po plate is great, lots of meat, not just bones. Today I ordered off menu for salt and pepper fish to go and lunch #5 general chicken. Lunch was very good, but when I got home, although I was already full, I tried the fish. Oh dang! It’s so good! Even though I’m full, I can’t stop.“

“I thought my first visit was just a lucky hit — everything was perfect. But after coming back again and again, it’s undeniable: this is the best Chinese food I’ve ever had.

Every dish has its own distinct flavor, exactly the way it should. And the temperature? Always piping hot — from the tea to the entrées — every single time.

Consistently delicious, served hot, and absolutely worth the wait.“

“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.“

“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.“

“My first time at Joy House. I really liked the filling and thin crispy wrapping of the spring rolls, but thought that they were too oily and preferred if they could have skipped the red coloring in the sweet and sour sauce. Again, the filling was fantastic and very authentic. The beef in the beef chow fun was really tasty and tender, but the noodles were also too oily for my taste. The service was great and the cook was very accomodating. 5+ stars for service. Really great and hard working folks. I will give them another try sometime soon again.“

“We got an assortment of dishes for a decent-sized group (15) of family, and everyone truly enjoyed the food. Some even said it was the best they ever had! The food was ready very quickly and they accurately predicated the timing so we got to bring it home hot and fresh. The portions were large enough to split amongst multiple people (2-3 each), but they don't come with rice so be sure to order some with your dish.“

“Best Sichuan food I've had in Sacramento! And the portion sizes are super generous as well so you never feel stiffed.

The Sichuan boiled fish was delicious and the fish fillet was tender and numerous. The green beans are some of the best I've had, with amazing flavor and crunchy despite being out of season. Genuinely green beans are the hardest veggie to stir fry so if they got that down, everything else should be locked down too.

The new owners definitely fixed all the issues with the previous“

“Highland Chinese is my FAVORITE place in all of Sacramento and Placer County to get Chinese food. The service is always great and the food is consistently incredible. My personal favorite is the Braised Tofu and Vegetable Chow Mein but a popular one among my family is the Hong Kong Style Pan Fried Noodles. Egg drop soup is perfect for cold weather days or sick days. Really everything there is good and you can't go wrong“

“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.“

“I like this place from the start..we come here to clebrate on any occasion or just to have lunch or dinner.., what i like most is its clean and not crowded and everything is organize , and of course the service and the workers is a plus...“

“I've lived in Carmichael for years and have finally discovered my favorite Chinese restaurant.
The veggies are cooked perfectly, the sauces yummy, not heavy and the food is delicious.
The staff is friendly and nice.
Give it a try, I highly recommend this restaurant.“

“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 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Catered food from the restaurant.. able to pick up on time.was told to pay in cash.
Mint/ cilantro chutney for mixed vegetable pakora was frothy and like rasam..very watery. Pakoras were more like onion than mixed vegetables. Starter paneer dish was almost charred..chicken drum sticks were also a little overdone. Chicken curry was great, but was packed in a single half tray and was not double packed..hence was messy to deal with. Naans were not packed right, hence very soggy.“

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

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

“I’m always looking for new Chinese restaurants and this was recommended on Nextdoor Neighbor. We tried it and are fans. The lunch special is such a good deal with plenty of food for not much money. But the real deal is that the food is delicious! Fresh tasty, flavorful, hot and authentic. Try this neighborhood gem…it’s well worth the trip.“

“I ordered their Cashew nut chicken from the lunch special. It had lots a veggies and the chicken had a nice flavor and was not chewy like at some other places. It came with a wonton but no sauce. The wonton was not crunchy and not very good. The fried rice was cooked well and tasty. The portion for lunch was good. I wish it was a little less greasy.“

“The food has really nice taste and does not feel greasy at all!
I love that every plate is freshly made and don’t have tons of oil excess.
We have tried almost everything with our friends and every dish is good.

The atmosphere is calm, quite and perfect for a good family time or a date. The owner is super sweet and always paying attention to details with an smile.

Prices are great for the quality, and the service is fast.

Very clean facility!
Overall a good recommendation!“

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

“I gave 4 stars because it’s my first time trying this restaurant due to me moving in this area and the service was very pleasant.. I love that they still put the food in boxes to go.. it gives nostalgia. The restaurant could use some lighting and maybe more of an inviting atmosphere but that’s not a huge issue at all! I will be ordering again.“

“We moved to Roseville 6 months ago & we have been trying out different restaurants here. We continue to try many different places but after trying CJF , it is in our list of favorites. We go there at least every 1-2 weeks , have brought family there & recommended it to friends. Very nice !“

“Yesterday was my granddaughters 3rd birthday and we chose to eat here and it went perfect, are server was really great to us feeding into the child birthday thing, the food was great, everything was just great for all of us, thanks for the great food and making our moment the best. It was exactly what we expected and got. A++++ Thank you.“

“After coming here for over 20 years, I owe them a review. When I think of Chinese food, this is the restaurant I think of. It’s nostalgia, my family brought me here when I was a kid. As a teen, I’d drive here on Friday nights to pick up dinner. I moved away after high school, but any time I come back to visit family, I want to come here. When I’m at home, I crave this as I have to eat the lesser Chinese near me!

The orange chicken is THE orange chicken for me. It’s super crunchy, perfectly breaded, and the chicken is long and thin which helps it cook better. The sauce is perfection. Never have I ever found an orange chicken at multiple similar Chinese restaurants that has even come close. The walnut shrimp, cream cheese wontons, and won ton soup are also favorites of my family. Even the white rice is my ideal perfect white rice. I’m getting hungry now.

The same people have always worked there, they do their job well but they aren’t always the friendliest, at times. I’m there for the food. Order take out or stop in for 40 minutes, you’ll go home full and happy.“

“My girlfriend and I went there for lunch and the food was delicious and lots of it. It was a great price too. I would recommend this restaurant to all .“

“Absolutely the best Sushi ever. Highly recommend the Wagyu nigiri Actually everything was hands down amazing. The food presentation was on point as was the taste .“

“This restaurant is tucked away in a small strip mall just off Hazel and Winding Way. My friend and I were impressed with the menu, the service and the food. We both had the sweet and sour soup. It was delicious and served pipping hot. I had the appetizer steamed pot stickers and my friend had a wonderful chicken dish. Entrees are large enough to share. The dining room is small and pleasant. They do a large take out business. Drinks are all non alcoholic.“

“Found a new local favorite pho place! This place is tucked away in a plaza but totally worth the find.

The pho broth is on point, but they have a secret sauce that is mind slowly delicious!

Would come back and be a regular here!“

“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.“

“1st time getting takeout there. Staff was very nice. Very expensive. Food was ok. Lemon chicken tasted good but the chicken was old, chewy and dry. Sweet and Sour pork was ok and had no pineapple in it which was odd. Chewy and not great tasting pork. Chow mein was good. Broccoli beef was good. Really 3.5 stars so 4 stars os generous. We won't be back. $55 for 4 items is insane. Sorry.“

“Sonora location. Tried when first opened and few weeks ago. It was clean (new) and great service. Re-visited yesterday and totally the opposite! Counter was dirty, all food was low. It was 4 o’clock and not busy. The cook, other gentleman and waitress was very unprofessional and unsanitary! The cook, yes while wearing gloves, continued to touch dirty services and our food. At one point he had his cell phone in his hand looking at it while cooking our food. Phone back in dirty pocket, touching his hair then back to cooking our food! The conversation between the three of them were load and unprofessional. I was so ready to leave! Definitely won’t be returning anytime soon.“

“I had the beef stew special tonight. 🔥👌🏼Bambu has been one of my go to spots for 10 years plus - never been let down, never.“

“Went in Sunday (10/12/25) for lunch after leaving another local Chinese establishment that wanted to charge $13 for a small bowl of hot-n-sour soup and no rice came with entrees.

The Sunny Garden was great. The orange chicken was crisp and fresh, and the chow mein was excellent. The string beans were crisp and not overcooked. We got out of there for less than half of the other place and were very pleased (full).

I found a new favorite Chinese restaurant for when I'm in Folsom. Thank you Summer Garden for the excellent 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“

“We order Catering for all our staff once a month and the deliever the best food always. The restaurant is owned by our owners cousion, so I always had a thought that due to the owners influence we get some extra ordinary food for catering. But then I went in with my Family on one of Friday night to check the rstaurant and it was much more better when we ordered the food for Dine in. Those Sizzling Platters were just Amazing. Must Try out Place For Caterings, To Go & Dine in. The believe in perfection -Manager Redline Tires & Wheels - Roseville“
