“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.“

“Best chinese food in the Sacramento area. My wife and I were super excited to find this location near us, we will be regular and repeat customers for sure. We love spicy dishes, and we ordered some non-spicy for our kids with us, all bangers. We ordered the beef noodles, the green bean with eggplant, the pork and cauliflower, and the white fish in peppercorn soup. All excellent, very friendly staff. If you are new to Sacramento area or just passing through looking for authentic chinese food you will not be dissapointed.“

“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!“

“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.“

“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“

“Shout out to Josh who I heard politely discussing an issue with a mobile order with his coworker(not mine), then assisting an older gentleman who was having the difficulty with it. He was polite to me and asked if he could help the man first, he was patient and kind to him and took his time to provide customer service regardless of it being busy at 5:30pm. We need more people like Josh in the world. I hope they appreciate him as part of their team because he was 10/10.“

“Hanna was extremely helpful and sweet when we asked questions on the wait for beef and broccoli. Other staff however rudely looked back and ignored her asking several times what the wait would be so we never got our answer. Hanna was quick to attempt to give us a guess on the wait but we figured we would get something else. Other staff were very rude.
Thank you hanna for the great service 👍🏻“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I’ve been coming to this place with my family since I was a child, and now that I have my own family, it means so much to be able to bring them here too. It’s one of those special spots that truly stands the test of time. The staff are always so friendly, kind, and welcoming—you can feel it the moment you walk in. They make you feel like more than just a customer, and that kind of service is hard to find. And the cook—he is AMAZING! You can tell he takes pride in what he does. Every bowl is cooked perfectly and tastes incredible every single time. It’s honestly part of what keeps us coming back. The restaurant is also very clean and well-maintained, and they do a great job keeping everything stocked and fresh. The Mongolian bar is always being refilled, so you never feel like you’re missing out. This place isn’t just a restaurant for me—it’s a tradition. So grateful it’s still here for my family to enjoy ❤️“

“This is our go-to Chinese spot in Folsom! We are frequent regulars here, largely thanks to their wonderful, welcoming service. They even recognized us on a recent visit after we hadn't been back for a while! This place holds a special spot in our hearts—we’ve been coming here since before our son was born, and we even celebrated his 3rd birthday here.

My top menu recommendations:

Hop Sing Beef

Brandy Fried Chicken

Salt and Pepper Fish Fillet (pro tip: ask for sweet and sour sauce on the side!)

Seafood Crispy Noodles

Any of their Fried Rice dishes (you seriously can't go wrong!)

The best part (and best-kept secret): You can request several menu items to be made gluten-free!

Beyond the nostalgic vibes and amazing food, the location is perfect. Snooks Chocolate Factory is just a short walk away, making it incredibly easy to grab some ice cream or handmade chocolates for dessert right after your meal. Highly recommend!“

“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.“

“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“

“The best and authentic dumpling spot in town. You can see through a glass window how they make dumplings so you know its not some frozen packaged dookie. Soup dumplings and pork dumplings were my favorite. Other dishes like chicken chowmein, walnut shrimp, and orange chicken are exceptionally good and not even comparable to panda express. Really really good food. Highly recommend.“

“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 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Absolutely wonderful dining experience! The quality of the food was outstanding, and every dish was beautifully presented with great attention to detail. Everything looked elegant and appetizing, and the flavors were just as impressive.

The restaurant itself is spacious, bright, and very comfortable, creating a relaxing and enjoyable atmosphere. From the food quality and presentation to the overall dining environment, everything exceeded my expectations. I would definitely come back and highly recommend this place to anyone looking for an excellent dining experience. Five stars!“

“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.“

“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! 😁😋😎“

“Consistently excellent and flavorful dishes. I have been a customer for several years and their service and quality has always been consistently great. They use natural ingredients and don't rely on MSG to create flavorful meals. I would highly recommend trying them out for take-out or dine-in. They have a casual dining area but are also excellent for a quick take-out meal during the week.“

“Wow! Finally, a GREAT chinese restaurant in this part of town. I have been to a lot of chinese restaurants in my life and this one really stands out for excellent with many authentic dishes. May was our server. She was wonderful. May helped us select dishes. The food was fresh and the produce was super fresh and clean. We tried the Magic Chili Chicken, absolutely delicious and spicy. The Chow Fun was the best I have ever had, wonderful flavors. We also tried the Spicy Pork Dumpling appetizer, amazing flavors and the sauce was so good I was eating it with a spoon. We got our usual General Tao's Chicken, but theirs was so good, the flavors. Not your typical version swimming in a heavy sugar syrup. I actually felt good after eating dinner there. We are going back next week, I can't wait any longer, and we are excited to try more dishes.“

“We did take out and were very pleased with our food and we have high dumpling and bun expectations. It may have been our poor ordering, but the mapo tofu was gross. The bbq pork buns were solid. We're saving the soup dumplings for next time!“

“I was in the mood for good Chinese food and I was in Rocklin. I consulted the Google, which told me to venture northeast 2 clicks and Boom ! The food here is excellent. I had to soft Hong Kong style House Chow Mein. It was really tasty and waiter filled my coke twice without me asking. My actual helping was twice as big. I ate over half of it before taking this picture ! If I lived here I would be a regular customer.
Thank you for great food ❤️“

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

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“Overall, it was a decent experience. However, the portion sizes were somewhat disappointing, and the noodles were overly salty.
The dumplings were good, the service was decent, and the atmosphere had the charm of an old-school Chinese restaurant. I expected much more based on the reviews, but in the end, it was still a reasonably enjoyable meal.“

“Delicious authentic Southern Indian food. We were introduced to it by our friends. We love every single thing we tried. We are repeat customers. You order via a tablet they place on the table for you. Very convenient as it allows you time to look through the menu and keep adding whatever you want without having to wait for anyone to come take your order.“

“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.“

“Had a great experience at Lincoln Chinese Restaurant. The food was delicious, flavorful, and came out hot and fresh. Portions were very generous for the price, which is hard to find nowadays. Definitely felt like we got our money’s worth.

Service was friendly and quick, and the overall atmosphere was comfortable and welcoming. Everything we ordered tasted great, and there were plenty of leftovers to take home. This has easily become one of our go-to spots for Chinese food in the area. Highly recommend!“

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

“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.“

“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.“

“Our first visit to Red Lantern Solaire North was a pleasant surprise. Though the branch is smaller, the service remained consistent and warm—just as we’ve always known it. The food was exceptional as ever, with the beef served in a box so tender it almost melted in the mouth. The hot prawn salad and mango roll were standouts, while the kataifi—a dessert that Red Lantern has uniquely served for nearly a decade—remains unmatched. It was a wonderful family meal, reaffirming why Red Lantern will always be our go-to place for celebrations and special moments. PS. They also have Chinese Tea presentation and the 1000 mask dance.“

“Went here for the first time a few weeks back. When you enter it is very clean and modern which I liked. They take you to a table and get you drinks and then you can go ahead grab food. The food was okay and none of the seafood tasted off. The staff was nice but gave some weird looks which I was confused by but would come by pretty often to clean up plates. There was some faint music but I don't know if that was due to volume of people talking or in general. They do take a service charge of 10% I believe for groups over 6 people so be aware of that. Overall I would come here again.“

“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 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 !“

“I have been here several times by myself, today was the first time that I took one of my Asian friends the true test. I am glad to say that I was correct this place is above average in food quality and just below perfect in customer service. I definitely would recommend Pho Viet. They were definitely observing social distance procedures, and it didn't effect the great customer service.“

“Absolutely one of the best local Chinese restaurants in the area as you can see in the picture there is no one here at 7pm is a shame as seriously some of the best food in the area and yet maybe people just don't know? This is no Panda Express this is real true Chinese food prepared amazingly how about customer here for close to 20 years always be, if you need a night out and want delicious food this is the place it breaks my heart knowing that doordash and the likes are putting some of our local institutions out of business I hope they are not one of them but just the same if you've never been here it is worth coming“

“Nice, clean and polite customer service. Good location at granite bay. I got to order my favorite hot and sour soup, and also god ordered pan-fried dumplings. Everything was so delicious, yummy. :-) next time I will go here again. thank You 🙏“

“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 .“

“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“

“Hometown Dumpling in Folsom, CA, serves up some authentic homemade dumpling... they gots boiled, steamed , and pan fried in a variety of fillings.

The menu also has wonton soup, noodles, soup dumplings, fried spring rolls, crab rangoons, cucumber salad (Asian style), Chinese egg custards, bbq pork buns, sesame red bean paste fried balls,, stir fry veggies, taro steamed buns, and some other items.

I've tried the dumplings boiled, steamed, and pan fried. The boiled ones are slippery and best when I'm in the mood to have them swirled in a sauce like hot chili oil. Streamed ones have a slight chew to the dumpling exterior than the boiled or fried dumplings.But doesn't take away from the taste. Pan fried is good when you want a crispier exterior and slight crunch. Whatever way you order 'em... it's all good! The egg custards, sesame balls, and crab rangoons are classic and my other go tos. I enjoy the diversity of the menu. Gotta confess, in Folsom there is not a lot of these good authentic dumpling places. Plus throw in some dim sum items...score! Is it Michelin star, no. It is homemade and comforting, yes!

The place is clean, comfortable, and has basic furnishings and decor. There is no music or TV. The owner works most of the shifts. It truly is a small family business that welcomes your family.“

“only place that my 7 year old like t go only been 2 times he love the frog legs“

“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.“

“Some of the best won-ton soup you can get. Been coming here for more than 30 years. We dont live close anymore but anytime we come to this side of the Sacramento area we come here.
Some of the best Chinese food around. Chicken chow mean, sweet and sour pork, pork fried rice, cashew chicken, and my wife will order cashew tofu. The foil wrapped chicken is also very good.“

“I do recomend fats asia bistro roseville the food is delicious it's beautiful but unfortunately this time 2 young ladies in the front ignored me, gave dirty looks and were disrespectful to me also did not even help me at all. the gentleman who helped me was very respectful and its just sad that a great place and usually great experiences can be ruined because a couple employees decided to be very rude and for no reason.“
