50 Best Chinese Restaurants in Sacramento

“Went out with my daughter and bf for a late dinner. We went big. Salt and pepper chicken and Wor won ton to start with. Both were excellent. From there it was Buddha's delight, orange chicken, bacon wrapped scallops, chow mein and steamed rice. Everything was fantastic. It was pi day and they had sold out. But our server Mariah found one hiding in the back for the road and even comped it for us. Amazing food and excellent service as always.“

“Hands down my new favorite Chinese food restaurant in Sac. And I've been here my whole life so I know all the little hidden gems (like Eastern Empire before it shut down...so sad ?). This place is seriously dope though. They're as friendly, kind, courteous and professional as can be; use high quality ingredients (more so than the majority of Chinese restaurants in Sac); they're efficient and my favorite thing about them is they're significantly cheaper than any other restaurant (Chinese or otherwise) in the area! Seriously, I don't know how they do it...but they do! I guess the only not spectacular thing about em is their location. It's easy to miss and I feel like I should maybe have a weapon on me when I come to pick up my food! Lol... Oh, and it's worth mentioning that this isn't really a sit down and dine kind of spot either. They only have 2 small tables in the lobby, and those are more for waiting than eating on. But, if you're looking for some fire a** Chinese food, this is your best bet!-Top Shelf Quality-Great People-Most Affordable Hands Down-ULTRA HIGHLY Recommend“

“??Wonton in Chili Oil - It smells garlicky and good, medium spicy level. The filling is good, a pork & shrimp stuffing, the garlic is the major flavor through the dumpling. This is one of the spicer versions of this dish that I've eaten.I would come back to try other things.“

“Food was great! Quick and prompt seating. I had my 6 year old with me, so I was curious how they handled food togo when you don’t finish. They asked us if we wanted a box; so that was nice. Prices posted online are not the same as what we were charged. The proces are reasonable and we will definitely be back.Parking: Limited parking in a shopping center, but didn’t have a problem finding a spot.Kid-friendliness: Offered a lid for the child’s water.“

“Nice ambiance, very hospitable staff and good service, we ordered Chole bhature, aloo tikki, shahi paneer (shredded) and veg biryani the food was fresh and exceptionally tasty, sesame naan was very soft, sweet yogurt drink was perfect, in all a very good Indian/pakistani restaurant, I strongly recommend this restaurant “

“Really fast service was surprising--about 4 minutes from order to entree! Utterly HUGE serving sizes--as in "take the leftovers home and have for lunch later in the week" size of the entrees. Even flesh eaters will like it as the mock meats are really tasty. It's easy to see why it has so many great reviews:-)“

“Me and my family go to the Elk Grove Hidden Dumpling House for the gluten free options. We went to this branch and it did not disappoint with the gluten free sweet and sour chicken and gluten free fried rice. I love this place and it is great that they have gluten free options for my sibling who is allergic.I will say that I wish that the gluten free dumpling was the same as the Elk Grove store, here the chicken cilantro dumpling is pan fried but the other store it is steamed. The dumplings also came way after the other food, we had already had finished the food when the dumplings cameDietary restrictions: Great gluten free options“

“First of all, this place is CASH only. They have no ATM. So be prepared. Also another thing to note is that even though the name of this place states it’s a market. Not so much now a days. They have a cold case of drinks and sell Chinese newspapers, that’s about the extent of their “market”. The focus is the deli… Chinese dim sum and hot food. They sell the classic Cantonese dim sum and old school Americanized Chinese hot lunch plates. I enjoy the dim sum and hot food. The place is not fancy, very simple setup. CASH only, just repeating that again because that is an important nugget of info.They open at 8 am. That is when I usually drop in. At that time, they are stocked with the baked bbq pork buns, cocktail buns, hot dog buns, har gow, and sui mai. The other dim sum trays will fill up for the day. At times, I luck out and they already have pork filled glutinous fried dumpling, sesame balls, egg custards, and fried chicken (thighs and drumsticks). Yup fried chicken… ohhh I luv me a breakfast of fried chicken. Mmm. I enjoy all their dim sum. Like I said, it’s classic Cantonese flavors.Parking: If parallel parking ain’t your thing, there is pull in spots on U Street across from the elementary school.“

“Tiny place, small parking options, great food. Ill with RSV all of January (happy new year ☹️) I desperately needed some Hot and Sour soup. I'm relatively new to Sacramento, so I looked up restaurants on the internet for pics of the soup. Their's looked like the correct ingredients, so I took a chance. Ordered ahead, Googled directions, and found a place as tiny as a tea cup. One middle-aged couple having quiet a lunch... my type of place. A tiny diamond on a side street between lovely residential area and business area. Soup was fabulous, so I ordered more dishes to go. Good food, not haute cuisine, but really good. This one stays on my speed dial - yeah, I'm old. ?Vegetarian options: It's a Chinese restaurant ? ya know, tofu, veggies ?Parking: Parking lot is a gravel "street/sort of alley" affair but definitely designated for parking. And there is some street parking.“

“If you're turned away at the run down exterior of the old 50's strip mall, turn around and give this place a try. The locals come here for good reason! The noodles are great and all the accompanying dishes are great. They make their own boba teas too. The thing is you got to get past the exterior, the place is busy. I was a little hesitant as I put my hand on the door but I knew the instant we entered it was a hidden gem. Do you want tasty things to eat. This is the place!“

“Da Fei Ge restaurant is a must go to restaurant that has authentic Chinese skewers and a tasty clay pot. My wife loves Skewers, and she said these are the most authentic and tasty skewers she has ever had. I enjoyed all the skewers as they were seasoned very well. Thia will be a spot that I will come back to because it is that good. The Black Pepper Beef Rice Clay pot is flavorful and tasty. We loved the chicken skin, lamb, beef, pork belly, chicken heart, bacon mushroom, potato eggplant, squid, capelin, and chicken gristle skewers. We love the service and how quickly the food came out. We also love how nice the place is.“

“I mainly came here for their authentic handcraft Xiao Long Bao. They have an open kitchen concept in which you can see them make their delicacies realtime. I ordered their spicy pork Xiao Long Bao. One order comes with 8 handcrafted pieces. They were initially really hot, but cool down fairly fast. They are delicious in my opinion. There is lots of flavor in the meat and the broth. There is a really good balance of meat, dough and broth. They are each a decent size.I was also fortunate to try their Beef Braised Brisket Noodle Soup. The broth has a slight spice to it and although on the saltier side, it is packed with flavor. The meat is abundant and incredibly tender. The noodles are thin and have a pleasant chewy texture. The portions are generous with this soup.The Thai iced tea has good flavor and a fair price. I wish it was creamier though. I have to be back to try their Organic Coconut Dessert.Staff is friendly and fast. The restaurant is quite spacious and clean. They offer dine-in with indoor and outdoor seating, takeout and online orders. They also offer delivery through third party apps. It’s located in Crocker Village right in between Great Clips and Nekter Juice Bar. There is plenty is parking available.“

“The first thing you notice is how many Chinese customers are seated, always a good indication of what’s ahead. Then, seeing the menu written in both Chinese and English shows they know their demographic! And as a plus, you can order in Chinese and they understand and reply in like. Great Asian fusion leaning toward Hong Kong, not mainland China. The chicken pot is a great mix of veggies and chicken and is big enough to feed 2. The Currie is delicious whichever protein you choose to add. AAA+ Highly recommend!“

“Something inside me said TRY this place. Last night in Sacramento and close by too. Very very good. We got the sesame chicken, pork fried rice and the potstickers. The potstickers are mini footballs and amazing. The sesame chicken and fried rice were bomb. These items could have easily fed a family of 4. Super friendly dude, a tad sketchy part of town but well worth it. *you order and then wait in your car or whatever. Huge portions if you're into that.“

“This place serves best chinese & vietnamese foods.. i love the Pork Kidney with egg noodle! The staffs can speak Vietnamese/ English and friendly. The place is not huge but big enough.. so be aware of quing. Overall, i will be back when i have a chance to visit Sacramento again ?“

“An authentic Hong Kong style dim sum restaurant that has plenty of delicious options. From the moment one enters the door, servers warmly greet you, ask for your party size, and beckon you in. Right as one sits down, servers with carts flock to you, rapidly and eagerly serving you all sorts of delicious options. The service is immediate and lightning fast! They all speak English, Cantonese, and Mandarin, and many will ask if you would like to order anything specific that isn't shown on the carts. The sesame balls with red bean paste was my favorite dish, but the others didn't fail to disappoint as prices are quite affordable, starting at 4.50 for small dishes, 5.00 for medium, and 5.50 for large dishes. The room is also lavishly decorated with a stage and dance floor (probably for weddings), drapes hanging from the ceiling, and chandeliers dotting the area.“

“Delicious Cantonese/southern Chinese seafood and dim sum restaurant. More upscale and thus more expensive than other equally delicious local alternatives. Food: Dim sum dishes - 4/5 - very good but not exceptional; also relatively overpriced /more bougey. Dim sum is to be ordered hot and fresh from the menu House/wor vs regular wonton soup - 4.5/5 - wonton with other protein variety which overall was very good, but I've definitely have had better wontons House combination fried rice - 5/5 - one of the best Salted egg shrimp and pumpkin - 5/5 - just delicious! A favorite that you must try! Lobster, salted egg style - 5/5 - this style surprisingly works really well for seafood and personally tastes as good as the scallion(green onion) and ginger, my previous favorite lobster style Walnut shrimp - 5/5 - very delicious crispy fried covered sweet mayonnaise and walnuts Black pepper chicken - 4/5 - pretty good Rainbow chicken - 5/5 - excellent taste and aesthetics Seafood satay rice noodle in clay pot - 5/5 - delicious seasoned/sauteed glass noodle with seafood Yue huang vs seafood pan fried noodle - 5/5 - excellent version of a classic Chinese country style rice noodle - 5/5 - delicious stir fry of glass noodle with sautéed protein Yue huang chow fun dry - 5/5 - another fantastic version of a classic wide rice noodle dish Beef chow fun dry - 5/5 - love this w Seafood chow fun with egg wet - 5/5 - if you love seafood + egg + chow fun rice noodle Ambience: Large spacious dining area featuring beautiful Chinese traditional art Service: Fast and friendly“

“It's so cute. If you're into warm fuzzies, and all things pink, this place is for you. Customer Service is great, and I brought my 10-year-old with me, and she loved the little gigantic cup with the little stuffed surprise at the bottom of the cup. I got the grape mock beer fruit tea, and I found it really refreshing and not too sweet. It actually tastes like real beer! My daughter got the strawberry matcha ice cream and tea and she loved it. We got a lychee milk tea to go with lychee jelly and it was also good. Also enjoyed the crispy chicken. Would definitely come back!“

“Tried the Foil wrapped chicken, lobster cheese wontons, beef fried rice, honey walnut shrimp, and shrimp with green beans.The wontons are crispy and tasty. The foil wrapped chicken was excellent, tasty and very juicy. The fried rice had good taste, I could taste the fire of the hot wok. The shrimp and green beans had a brown sauce, with the beans crispy and the shrimp cooked just right. The walnut shrimp were also good, not too sweet and the batter stayed crispy.Overall a good restaurant, prices are good, service is great.“

“Can't wait to explore the menu, the Mongolian beef was Amazing! I was born in Japan and haven't tasted anything as close since I was there! I will keep periodically updating.....Parking: There is a security guard walking....Wheelchair accessibility: Very open and easy to get to.“

“Pretty good chinese cuisine! Inside it is nicely decorated, nicely renovated with even a live waterfall. Tables and floor are clean. Chairs wrapped in gold colored cloths. Overall a nice interior Food quality is pretty good. The beef steak tasted really tender, which means it was probably a high quality cut. The portions are also pretty big. Price is a bit on the high side, but it seems like that is the industry segment they are going for. Staff are pretty friendly. There are also Karaoke rooms in the back if you want to host a private party. Overall a good place to go for quality chinese food!“

“Homey Chinese restaurant. Plenty of parking outside. Next to Dollar Tree. The sign of the restaurant is small and a bit unassuming. Credit cards and Apple Pay are accepted. Bathroom in the back of the restaurant. The food was so good that we placed an order of food to take home for dinner. Cheung fun (steamed rice roll) is the thing to get here. You can add egg for $1.50. I liked the beef better than the shrimp. Maybe because they used smaller sized shrimp. Congee is also popular, but I didn't try it. Mushroom beef comes with some string beans, so this is a good well-rounded dish. Honey garlic spareribs were sweet. I thought it was tasty, but the meat had tiny bones. The satay egg & shrimp chow fun was good too. Service was good. They would refill our waters. They spoke English and Chinese with us. I'd be back!“

“Best pho in Sacramento, hands down! This spot is owned by a Vietnamese family, who will be the ones cooking and serving your food for you. Their service is always 10/10, they're fast and accommodating. The restaurant is clean and well maintained, prices are awesome as well.“

“The quality is like no other. Nice thick pieces of meat, real egg in the fried rice, made when you order. The flavors and spices are incredible. Fast service, although they only do take-out orders. They load up the plate/box. We always have leftovers. This is our go-to chinese place!“

“Just recently found this hidden gem. Probably the best pho I've ever had! I like to order No.4 beef pho. Big portion but the price is still lower. It can be very busy sometimes, so after you are stated you have to wait for a while to order and get your food delivered.“

“I've eaten here for dine in and take out. Food is always fresh, filling and good. Service is mediocre because the lady isn't really welcoming at all times but she knows how to do her job. It's a hole in the wall. Not the nicest decor so I wouldn't take anyone for a date. Take out is your best bet unless you want to sit in a dark green room.“

“Tried this place twice in the past week and was happy with the taste and quantity of the food. I did notice that the prices changed from the end of February to March 1, 2024, so wanted to share the updated menu with prices. We ordered the Hong Kong style chow mein, black bean sauce fish, fried prawns and brandy fried chicken. My mom loved the brandy fried chicken. I thought the fried prawns were tasty but wished it had a batter instead of a breading. I liked the black bean sauce fish, it was light on the black bean flavor and had a hint of a salt and pepper flavor. The Hong Kong style chow mein noodles were nice because they were thin noodles that had some crunch to them but weren't overly crispy. A little greasy but that's not unusual for fried noodles.“

“You never know what you might get when you try a new restaurant and trust the yelp reviews. I did ask a gentleman standing in line waiting for his to-go order what was good here (not hi, not excuse me)! He gave his seal of approval and we stayed. This place is worth the visit! We were celebrating a friend's birthday and her only ask...Chinese food! We were a party of 5 and walked in without at wait. We opted for the family style meal for 5. The portions were HUGE (leftovers for the next day), the service attentive, huge chunks of fresh vegetables, and enjoyed the variety. And the food kept on coming! The only thing all of us didn't care for were the egg rolls. They were meh.“

“Recommending the pork spring roll -- it's stuffed with tender and flavorful pork with a nice char on it, in addition to crispy bean sprouts and lettuce, springy rice noodles, and chewy rice wrapper. The peanut sauce it comes with is a little spicy.“

“$14.99 PER LB!! The hostess did her best to explain the process to us but we missed this important detail which cost us a $40 meal per person. Concept is pretty awesome. Walk in, grab tongs and a plastic bowl. Fill the bowl with your favorite veggies, meats, toppings. Get to the cashier, scale your bowl for total weight, pick your broth and off the bowl goes for cooking! They have lots of vegetable options and meat/fish balls. It's an incredible selection! House bone broth is really good. The tomato broth was my favorite. The flavors are delicious and tastes like home cooking. Really pleased with the quality of the meal. There's a self serve dip station!!“

“Walked in, place was clean, open , airy. Staff was extremely friendly, helpful with menu and suggestions on the food. The food was tasty, plentiful, quick and delicious!! Can't say enough about the staff. Friendly and top notch!! We will be back.“

“ok - it has been several years since we are here last. the last time we were here, they served moldy broccoli and we all had food poisoning. So how were the dishes today? And why did we return? First off, this is what we ordered: 1) salty/spicy pork chops: very good- just needed a little more spiciness. But still had a nice flavor. The meat was also very tender and moist- I would order this again 2) Tomato Beef Chow mein: another excellent dish. fresh noodles, fresh veggies, tender pieces of beef and a nice sweet tomato based sauce. Ordered Hong Kong style but with thin non-crispy noodles. yes would order again 3) Chinese beef stew: this is how you prepare this dish. other chinese restaurants nearby can't even come close to the tenderness of the beef and tendons along with the traditional flavor of this dish. Finally, the star anise is present in this dish and not just soy sauce or too much chu hou paste. The only complaint were the overcooked bok choy that was layered below the beef pieces. the bok choy was overcooked and a bit slimy- but would order this dish again 4) stir fried fish fillets and chinese gai lon: very tender pieces of fish and nice garlic flavor. The only complaint would be to cook the chinese gai lon a little more to achieve the proper tenderness. So why did we return? perhaps the prep cooks and chef had a bad day last time. So i will return again.“

“Always try to come here whenever I'm in the area. Sometimes they are closed and get depressed. Amazing food and tastes authentic. Fresh ingredients and friendly owners. Great place❤️Vegetarian options: There is vegetarian options. You can even request vegetarian versions of original dishes.Kid-friendliness: Is kid friendly.Parking: Free parking, but try to be quicks because Sac PD like to give parking tickets on competitive parking areas like Broadway.“

“Pretty solid family owned, Chinese restaurant. Found this place through yelp on a rainy day when we were craving Chinese food. Service has been super friendly the last couple times we came. The first time we came, we were recommended to get the pork wontons, he said they were hella good and they were!! When you come here get EXTRA of their chili oil, THE BEST I've ever had, I want to bring some with me to every Asian restaurant I go to now lol“

“Food was tasty and their display was nice and their food was warm. The cooks brought out the food on time as well. Place was nice and clean. The atmosphere was okay because the location still in the Hood. But I will return because the food is awesome and affordable.“

“Yummmmmm!!! My first time having this type of noodle soup dishes. The broth was super flavorful and the noodles were cooked to perfection. The crispy pork was in fact CRISPY. I love how they garnished the dish with pickled cabbages, pickled long beans, peanuts, and bamboo shoots. It really elevates the dish. If you ever try this place, don't forget to add their spicy chili oil! That brings the dish to a whole new level.“

“The dumplings had thick wrappers, and while the beef and pork chive flavors were ordinary, the portion size justified the price. The savory and spicy chili sauce complemented the dish well, while the sweet sesame sauce added a pleasant contrast.“

“Thanks to Abid Bhai and his whole team for an awesome, amazing job on my daughters sixteen birthday….food was super delicious and great choices….heads off to Salim bhai and his team in the back kitchen ….my favorite place to eat always….very nice customer service by his team….thanks again from my family…5 out of 5 stars ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️“

“So far so GOOD! I will be back to try more!So far I have been there probably 10 more times. Consistently yummy, delicious hot food and a ton of it. I ordered two lunch specials it fed 4 people for lunch! I wish this was my neighborhood restaurant!! GREAT PRICES ALSO!!“

“One of my favorite Chinese comfort foods. I started coming in 1986. I haven't been here in 7 years. Scrambled eggs with BBQ pork and veggies over rice Hoisen sauce Blend chili oil, soy sauce and hot mustard and then drench the plate.“

“Where has this place been all my life. This is the best Chinese food i have had in decades. The peking spare ribs was heavenly. The walnut shrimp was so good wow i am speechless. I c why not open on weekend. With this good of food chefs deserve two days off period“

“Fresh, because it's made while you wait. Took 15 minutes for the order. The food was very good. The husband had orange chicken, which had actual chicken, instead of an unrecognizable blob covered with batter. I had the Mongolian beef combo and it was delicious!“

“This place was delicious!!! I've gone to the laundromat across the street for years and finally came here for dinner. OMG I am living for this restaurant!!! We got the Smoked Ham Fried Rice, Kiss of Fire Orange Fish Filet and shrimp skewers. Def will be back“

“my gf and i favorite pho spot! we get a small #1 and egg rolls for appetizer. if we aren't too stuffed we will also get a taro shake with boba. the food is always on point and comes out fast no matter how busy they are. all staff is always friendly.“

“Very good comfort food Hong Kong style..just like the “cha chaan tengs” in Hong Kong and the places in the Bay Area. My favorite place in Sacramento. My favorite place in San Francisco is Cafe Bakery and resturant in the sunset..Still haven’t tried all the dishes here yet..so far bluemoon hasn’t disappointed.“

“The staff is friendly and the food is great. Warm atmosphere makes it a nice place to eat and relax with family and friends.Parking: It's in a strip mall so there's plenty of parking.Wheelchair accessibility: First floor, no stairs so I believe it is wheelchair accessible.“

“Excellent dim sum. One of the only remaining dim sum locations with cart service. I was concerned that I might have gotten sick after eating there ( it was definitely something else), but at no time did I consider not going back. That is how good their cart delivered dim sum is.Vegetarian options: Plenty of good options. I liked the chive dumplings. The meat dishes are good alsoParking: Parking is terrible. Save time and park across the street at Target and cross the street to the restaurantWheelchair accessibility: We had two family members with wheelchairs and had no problem. One of them even took a dump with zero issues or complication. So happy they did not have to poop their pants in public since they were going to drive home in my car.“

“Just spotted this place on a whim and boy am I glad I did! I could smell it from outside! Had to pop in. I ordered the salt and pepper wings and they are tdf (to die for). Everything cooked to order . Wings are jumbo. 8pc. Seasoned perfectly. Lightly breaded. Piping hot. The flavor is phenomenal. I'll definitely be back to try more of the menu. My new favorite Chinese spot.Parking: Plenty of parking no stress finding a spot but hurry because after this review it's definitely going to be hard to find a spot.“

“Went here twice in the last month. Overall the food was pretty good, i love the clams and the steam fish, as well as the clay pot rice. But the roasted duck and the chicken wings were only so-so. Amazing value and good portion size though, will come back again!“

“This is buffet type hotpot restaurant with specialty lamp meat. People can self service the topping such as vegetables, corns, shrimps, fish etc…Parking: Plenty parking lots around the restaurantWheelchair accessibility: Easily access by wheelchair“
