50 Best Chinese Restaurants near West Sacramento

“Best Chinese food I’ve had in years! I had a craving and it was close to my hotel. Called in my order for takeout, 10-15min as it should be. Chow mein could’ve easily been a side for 4 people. Hot and sour soup was the best I’ve had since college. Not a fancy restaurant, legit hole in the wall that delivers! Wanted to go back for the lunch special, but it took me 2 days to finish.“

“Had their 5 course set meal for $40. Three people feasted with leftovers to go. Best food deal I've had in a restaurant in years. 3 entrees, soup, appetizer, rice. Way more food than 4 people can eat.

Food was way above average for a Chinese restaurant. Food was fresh, delicious, came out in like 5 minutes. Large menu. Coming back when passing by on I-80. This meal would cost double in Bay Area.

Though not truly 5 star place, I'm giving it 5 stars for VALUE.“

“Out of the Sacramento area, this is my family and I's favorite Chinese food place. The staff are extremely nice, appreciative, kind, and humorous. My son ordered chow mein and the waiter upon bringing them to the table said: And here is your spaghetti! LOL. They remember faces very easily which makes us feel important to be remembered or that they also had a nice visit. We always arrive when the lunch meals can be ordered, a lot of food for a good price! I have stomach issues and this is the only Chinese food place that doesn't hurt my stomach afterwards. I am also very picking when eating meat due to texture and their broccoli beef over rice is the only thing I order, and the only thing I continue to order. Do know that when you order, to expect your food really quickly! Wonton soup.... I am IMPRESSED, the perfect thing to have when feeling unwell. The orange chicken is to die for! We were so surprised and works well when you have a family with kids. We have been going here for the last 5 years. They are very open to accommodating large parties and have the space and room. The place is always clean, professionally represented. I guess I know where I am eating tomorrow! LOL.“

“I want to share my wonderful experience at Panda Express thanks to Teresa. I went through the drive-thru and unfortunately received a defective plate with my food. Teresa went above and beyond to immediately fix the situation with care and professionalism. She turned what could have been a frustrating experience into a positive one. Teresa is truly a jewel—an amazing employee who shows what great customer service looks like. Panda Express is lucky to have her!“

“Racquel and team were amazing. They helped me out to the car with my order and had everything dialed in on time. I really appreciate them. Panda express is always good with my catering orders and that that’s why you get my business. People like Raquel.“

“Having moved from Sacramento 18 years ago, it had been too long since dining at Frank Fat’s. Impeccable service started with the hostesses at the front door and continued at our booth in the back. With many savory appetizers to start, my family made the wise choice to order with the Combination Platter - four servings of several of the best appetizers. Entrees are served family style allowing everyone at the table to enjoy each dish that is ordered. My favorite was the Honey Walnut Prawns, perfectly cooked prawns with a nice crunch. The Hunan Chicken Chow Mein with crunchy noodles was a table favorite, as was the Mixed Vegetables Chicken. Our server was Luis who provided attentive table service throughout our delightful meal.“

“In a nutshell; really good dumpling/comfort food establishment to try out.

Simple menu with not the biggest variety of choices but what they offer they make really well. No complaints on service. Food didn't take too long either. Few select booths, seats and tables, probably not meant for a huge party size. Overall nice place to consider if you're looking for dumplings or rolls or a select choices of Chinese food.“

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

“Was recommended by someone and had to give it a try. Overall this is a great deal for $26 per-person for tier A if you're craving hot pot. The drinks are a bit different more targeted towards the Asians and they are canned drinks not fountain. The drinks provided American wise is Sprite, Diet coke, and regular coke while for Asians soybean milk, coconut water with jelly, Thai tea, Taro milk tea with boba (canned), lychee juice, and of course bottled waters. This is a cool and super unique experience also for $50 for tier C you get an all you can drink soju cocktail which is super cool. The XL soju if you do purchase that instead of going for tier C it will only cover like 8 shots. The restrooms are individual stalls/individual restrooms reminding me of an airplane restrooms and the ice cream there are self served scooped ice cream containers. The sauce bar does not have a base or their own sauce so you gotta know your sauce game and make it from scratch 😂. They also have a karaoke room in this area. Overall I would highly recommend this area for any family or even friend groups who like to drink and have a good time, there's plenty of space inside and outside has plenty of parking. Downside is this place is located in a ghetto area, but at least a large Bingo building next door makes it feel safe and also this place is surrounded by (Hmong/Hmoob) convient stores so tryna let my fellow hmong people know they're safe here too. 😂“

“No-frills, fast-casual spot serving the best guilin rice noodles in this part of town. Most of the patrons were Chinese.

There’s a self-service bar of pickles, chilies and crispy toppings for your bowl of noodles or rice. Their specialty is the Guilin Rice noodles, which comes with sliced pork and crispy pork belly. It’s a delicious combinations of flavors and textures.

The ladies working behind the counter are very sweet and friendly. Mandarin and English speaking.

BONUS: no tipping here! You can eat well for around $16 and serving sizes are pretty generous.“

“first things first, the service.. wow.
i’ve never been to a restaurant with such great/friendly service!
ordered chicken chow mein, steamed bbq pork buns, xiao long bao, shiu mai, walnut shrimp, thai tea and wonton soup — good size portions for a reasonable price
everything was so good! highly recommend! my new favorite spot and will definitely be back!“

“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!“

“This place is yummy! You pick a bowl full of ingredients, and then they cook it for you as a soup (think Ramen style) or a stir fry. You pay by weight, so you control how much you eat. It's quite delicious, and the staff are very nice!“

“Best seafood restaurant to eat at“

“Best place ever. The owners are amazing. My 2 year old son was having a tantrum and crying outside the store and the sweet lady came out with a little rice treat and gave it to him and he calmed down and said thank you. Please please please support this little treasured business.“

“Very good.“

“Honestly a hidden gem that we discovered a week ago. Been back already with a bigger group and it was just as good. Probably the best Chinese restaurant in sac at this point. Their duck has amazing flavor and crispy skin, the house noodles tastes fresh with a great texture and the salt baked chicken is great too with the ginger scallion sauce. They have a few really good off menu dishes too that we all enjoyed. The staff is incredibly sweet and attentive and the place is clean and comfortable. We will be back soon with more family and friends.“

“Kiwi juice with Boba is so good my favorite.

For some reason I thought this was the same as lollicup lol but this is the restaurant side. Never been here before, the lady that answered the phone when I called didn’t really want to help but I understand because I didn’t know exactly what was the name of the soup I was looking for ( my niece recommended) but expected that in person she would be more friendly but she was in the middle ( nice but rude at the same time) but I have to be honest the soup I got it was number A16 was not good for my taste and my honest opinion, had no flavor, I expected more , will I come again? Yeah maybe , and maybe try something different .“

“The food here tastes authentic and delicious! The flavors are rich and well-balanced, just like the original taste from home. The staff were friendly and attentive, making the whole dining experience very pleasant. Definitely one of the best places for Guilin rice noodles in the area.“

“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!“

“This is my spot when I want dimsum. Place is clean, food comes out quick, and the portions are decent. Only complaint is they charge $2 per person for tea but you just get one pot for the table. Would be nice if they made it free. Other than that, no issues.“

“Probably the best Sesame chicken I've ever had“

“We attended on an unassuming Saturday evening in December. We noticed that no music plays, but that was pleasant to me. Not much of the restaurant was filled up, as it seems takeout and food courier services are frequent. However, we were greeted quickly and friendlily.

It took maybe 5 minutes to order and a proper few more to receive our food. However, we did receive it all at the same time, for which I grateful.

The pork chow mein was appreciatively lacking in sugar; however, one member of the party remarked that it was a tad salty for them. We enjoyed a very solid and well-portioned mandarin chicken (with baby corn).

Finally, we tried the shrimp-stuffed fried tofu, which I must recommend to anyone willing to try something. It is silk tofu (very soft) with a mince shrimp ball placed on top, all fried and coated in a light, savory sauce. There were 8 pieces in the portion, and I could have eaten them all myself. I will likely come back for this.“

“Love this place. Been going since early 90s. Moved to North Carolina back in 2001 and yes I shipped C for four to north carolina. Worth every penny. Coming back to Sac this week for vacation. Always a place I go when visiting. In the south everybody talks about soul food. It's good and all but this is truly my soul food.“

“I was thinking the serving and the number of dumplings were not a lot considering it was only $11 but I was wrong! There were actualIy 10 dumplings on it. I was not able to finish it so I had to take it home. It could be good for two persons as long as you’re not that hungry.“

“Oh man- came in for lunch and left a changed person. My mom wanted dumplings and I wanted a bao bun and we got both of what we wanted.
What a beautiful staff and what a great place to be! Thank you again to the staff! Everything was delicious!“

“Food was fast no waiting great place“

“First their food (pork fried rice, Peking ribs, spring roll) were delicious and generous. The price is very reasonable at $42 . They were very busy with dining and many to go orders. My complaint is they brought the rolls and rice out together, 10-15 later they brought ribs out but by then our rice was cold. The only offer was to warm rice in micro.“

“Absolutely wonderful. This was our second time here. First time we got the beef clay pot rice and really loved the beef but thought the rice was a bit oily (though I know clay pot rice itself does need a lot of oil). This time we passed here on our way back from snowboarding at Tahoe. I got the beef rice noodles and my gosh, the brisket is chewy and the tendon just melts in the mouth, the flavor is just unbeatable in the US. The rice noodles are so light, healthy, and soothing for my stomach for dinner. We also got the pork steamed rice roll and beef congee, both of which are as authentic as possible. 没法形容，只能说对于留子来说吃完真的回国了❤️ I really hope the owner will open a store in the Bay Area!!!

P.s.: the only complaint is that both times, the service is a bit slow, maybe because we don’t speak Cantonese but mandarin, but the food is well worth the wait.“

“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!“

“If you're exploring Chinese food around Sacramento, this spot deserves a stop. I came in after a day in Folsom and ordered a mix of classics: orange chicken, chow mein, and potstickers. Everything arrived hot and flavorful, and the staff made the whole experience easy and relaxed. Portions are generous, prices are reasonable, and it’s the kind of place you remember when you’re deciding where to eat next week.“

“I enjoy the food very much. Sometimes I make special requests (no salt) and they are very great about accommodating me. Delivery is always curious and polite. The location is perfect if I choose to walk to the restaurant🙃“

“My favorite go to for comfort food! I always get take away here, because it's close to home. The chef KNOWS how to make my favorite Cantonese: Wot Tan Or ( probably I spelled wrong) but it's Shrimp Chow Fun with runny egg gravy mmm so comforting delicate flavor. Also when I ask for mixed veg. KNOWS how to make al dente so they're nice and crisp 👌 just perfect when I get home with the food. Even heated the leftovers and are not overcooked! So GOOD!! ❤️“

“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.“

“Best snackz! I've introduced so many humans to this place. It's well worth the visit! You'll be back.“

“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.“

“First time coming to this place, I’m so glad that they opened in Sacramento as I’m always craving for some Chinese local food such as skewers and spicy food 🥘. Price is reasonable to me that they currently have discount for students and those who shared the their promotion flyer on social media. Must try: lamb / pork belly with mushrooms/ oyster/ pancakes/ rice noodles and dumplings 🥟. Will come back soon:) good luck on your new business 🤗“

“I think they have the best chow mein in town. And they make really good hamburgers (and perfect fries) for less than any of our local chain store/fast food places.Their broccoli beef is super yummy too. So to their fried rice. I haven't tried much else from their extensive menu but I suppose I should because I like all their food that I have tried. I am also very sensitive to MSG and have never ever gotten a headache after eating their food; and I react quickly and painfully to even a trace of that stuff in my food.
This is a take-out location. There is no seating for eating there, but they are fast with any order. Call your order in and it'll be ready when you get there.“

“Why do the serve spaghetti at a Chinese restaurant? It taste good though. Smothered in cheese. I think the sauce is sweet and sour sauce. Happy hour drinks take forever to prepare and service needs work. Minus one star. Try the giant pork leg too.“

“Extremely surprised how clean, comfortable, new this place is for a spot in Sacramento. Definitely a vibe here, Cantonese influenced, food is delicious and tasty as would expect from a Cantonese establishment. They play Cantonese and mandarin songs which also makes it feel like you’re in Hong Kong eating/ dining. This plus they got karaoke rooms, pretty awesome concept! ??“

“Had their Broccoli Beef Combination .. good portions and tasty. Take out only.“

“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.“

“This little place was fantastic! The food was to die for! We had the numbing dry pot combo, Pork belly buns and spring rolls..... hands downs the best pork belly ive ever had! The dry pot was soooo! Good! The spring rolls were crispy and the dipping sauce they come with.... I dont think I can ever go back to the orang/pink sweet sour sauce most places give you.“

“We were traveling to Lake Tahoe. We passed through Sacramento and ate Asian food called Yum Cha Cafe (on the right side of the Shunfa SF Supermarket on 65th Street. We ate their roast duck, barbecued pork buns, shrimp balls, and barbecue. , fried noodles, siomai, their roast duck is so famous and really delicious. Very good seasoning, very fresh, plump and elastic meat. This is the most valuable roast duck in this area. I only had it in Hong Kong last time. I'm so happy today. I tasted such a good taste again. My family and I are very happy. I recommend it to everyone. You must try it. It's incredible.“

“friendly staff, clean. very popular food is good“

“Beback rating- yeah

I used to work around this area a few years ago. On one occasion I decided to try their food. I was not disappointed with their shrimp fried rice the most and have visited them a few more times.

Today I was I. The area for another reason. Their sign said open from 10am till 9pm. Well, the owner pops in a little past 11am. Not good normally, but I do remember two older people running the place. So, a little grace was needed. Plus, knowing my past experiences with their food., I didn’t get irritated. Yes, this is truly a mom and pop kinda place!

I’m glad I was patient as the fried rice was savory as usual, one of the best around town. This is one of those places where you get rewarded for not judging a book by its cover.“

“It was my first time having dinner at Gold Coast Cuisine inside one of their karaoke rooms last night. The room is very comfortable with music videos while enjoying our yummy dinner. All the dishes we have are very fresh and delicious. The service is excellent as well. The karaoke system is great. We have fun after the delicious meal.

Vegetarian options: Good selection of vegetarian menu

Parking: Although the parking lot is busy, many spaces are available within a short walk.

Wheelchair accessibility: The restaurant is wheelchair friendly“

“I love this place! They provide high quality meals, they have a nice menu, The chief cook in that spot is a professional, I love a lot tasting all their food. The food is always tasty, the service towards the clients is agreeable. I go often to this restaurant and I not even once was unhappy. I recommend it to all my friends.“

“Every experience I have had at this restaurant has consistently exceeded my expectations, and my mother who visits there regularly echoes my sentiment. The owner Amy goes above and beyond to ensure that her guests feel welcome and be food is delicious as well. The friday pork bun special and teriyaki/pepper chicken are all favorites here. While it isn't your typical fast food chinese restaurant, this locally owned establishment hits all the marks in terms of quality and customer service. Keep up the great work!“

“I love love this place food is delicious and the people are great everyone is friendly and they give you lots of food I've been eating here for like 10 years“
