This place is amazing! I was just scanning quickly looking for takeout on the way to the hotel. It turned out to be so much more. The food was quick, delicious, plentiful, and affordable. What I was not expecting is that I stumbled into one of the best honky tonk bars Ive seen in years. If I wasnt road tripping with my underage niece, I absolutely would have stuck around to have a beer or six. I think Ima have to find an excuse to come back to Sacramento just to get drunk in this place and spend the night singing Hank Williams songs. PS: The front door is kinda hard to find. Look for the handicap ramp

It’s so bomb! The owner was so polite and had great vibes. I ordered the sea bass and chow mein and rice. Just ask and you will receive. He makes it happen, food is amazing I recommend a few people that I had try my food and they wouldn’t stop talking about it. Love that! Bar is great plus reasonable prices.

Bar and Chinese food. I mean you cant beat that. I only wish they were open on the weekend.The guy who took my order was very nice and friendly. It was a little after 2 when I got thereIt seemed slow but maybe its picks up later after noon. It is a bar so.

This place is weirdly great Chinese food for a bar, and at an amazing price too!The egg rolls are massive, the specials are unbeatable, and the owner/bartender is one of the most chill dudes to talk to on the planet.

Stopped to have a cold beer and unexpectedly ended up ordering the the Spicy Bass. One word: Outstanding! Get out of your comfort zone and visit this place.

Mmmmm. And Jay is an absolute boss! Didnt expect how wonderful this place would be. He said hes been there 14 yrs and its kept him open. I see why!

This is my 1st review of any kind on food.Just purched chow mein, walnut shrimp, sweet an sour pork an Peking pork. Well tried a couple bites of everything an through the rest in the trash. After seeing the reviews we were excited to try this place for the 1st time. Had to be the worst Chinese food we ever had. The pork was old an hard an nasty tasting same with the Peking pork. Shrimp had some odd taste an could not stomach it. Chow mein who knows at that point I was utterly disgusted. Waste of 40 dollars. Im just praying we dont get sick at this point. Not good at all.

Best Chinese food I ever had, specifically the orange chicken. Owner/bartender was attentive, helpful, friendly, beer was ice cold and cheap. Steel-tip dart boards a definite plus! Dont be mislead by the outside appearance of the bar! Will be returning with friends.

Where to start? As a chef the food here is very good. It is the epitome of a hole in the wall. That being said this was my third trip here and the food has been very consistent. The guy at the bar is personable. And did I say the food was good? It wasnt the greatest or Benihana for that matter but it was super great for the price. I will eat here again.

Hey you would have to be looking for to find but this is in my top 5 Chinese restaurants! Full bar and the vibe of a dive bar without a large dive crowd. A favorite for decompressing on Friday nights after work for me.

2020-02-21 03:12:41

Food was very good, order to take home if you want to feed the family. Definitely a bar environment, the staff made room for us and kids but not what I would call a ‘family’ restaurant.I will definitely eat here again, for an adult night.

The most amazing food. The owner takes great pride in his recipes. Im so glad a friend recommended this place to us. Dont let the outside/bar fool you.

The best experience speaking to the main mgr/owner, just because of him and what else his bar offers I am definitely going to try more of his excellent ciusine of Chinese food. My sweetie and I felt like friends and almost true v.i.ps, recommend x10

I decided to eat here because it have a 4.7 star rating, which was far to misleading. The place is in a sketchy part of town and is an extremely cheap looking bar, most of it was empty and poorly furnished. However the main reason I decided to take 5 minutes to write this review was because the food was sub par. I dont know who would consider this place above 3 stars but they are dead wrong. Dont believe me? Eat there and then wish you had panda, because honestly panda is way better (panda is terrible chinese food). Oh and they only accept cash.

Great prices on beer and drinks. Chinese food is very tasty and comes out quick. The owner/bartender is awesome. Hes welcoming and funny as heck. Plenty of TVs and dart boards.

The most fun Ive had in a very long time. The food is crazy good. They do have an AMI enabled jukebox, so you can pick songs from your phone.

If you dont like this places food, youre out of your mind. Been going down the menu and thus far everything is the best in town. Forget 5, 10 stars all day.

2017-12-20 22:55:20

The food is good and they are fast. I dont like that they only accept cash because these days people usually use card. I go there mostly for my boyfriend because he loves the food but other than that they are okay.

OK not great. I ordered the sea bass, which ended up being lots of deep fry, not much fish. I tried some general chicken and fried rice. Its food.
