Been eating here for the last year or so. Small Chinese restaurant with reasonable prices and nice food. Free tea and food is well seasoned and prepared quickly. Personal favorites are the salt and pepper fish, egg plant clay pot, and fish maw soup. Staff are typically friendly
Yessssszsss! Ordered these two entrées in the photos, they were sooolll good! Huge portions and the beef bone was really soft and juicy. I love the tofu that comes with the beef stew and the veggies inside. Friendly customer service and clean environment. I will definitely come back here again for more food. Highly recommended this place for Chinese food
Good food and service. There's plenty of items we haven't tried yet. We usually go for our favorites (Singapore noodles, chow fun, general chicken, green beans, Fujian fried rice, etc.). Old style restaurant decor, no frills but clean.
My favorite place for Cantonese comfort food! I live in the Bay Area but always try to visit when we pass through the area - it’s that good!
Modest medium sized Chinese restaurant with great flavors. I have been going regularly for the past year and the cooking is very consistent. This is my favorite Chinese restaurant in town. My favorite dish is the Salt Pepper Filet Sole. It is on the family style menu, not the a la carte menu, but ask for it and they will make it. Trust me you will not be disappointed. It's so good. Crisp on the outside; moist, tender and flavorful on the inside. I also recommend their Peking spare ribs, honey walnut shrimp, sweet and sour chicken, broccoli beef, and beef chow fun, and spare ribs with salt and pepper. Parking can be a little difficult at busy times, but you can park along Freeport or in the neighborhood near by.
Jade Foundation Cafe is a restaurant known by almost all Chinese in Sacramento. They are one of the best wonton noodle soup restaurants. They are famous for their wontons and dumplings with or without the noodles. The beef stew and pig feet are also my favorite dishes there too. They also have many yummy Chinese dishes, and porridge is also available. The service is fast and attentive.
