    I know it looks gloppy it it was shrimp egg foo young and shrimp fried rice. All good
    April E.

    Food was great. Always looking for Chinese food like we used to have in the 50's and 60's. Not an easy task and the cooks have changed their recipes to suit American palates. This place came pretty close. Egg flower soup,hot and sour soup, egg foo young and Szechuan chicken were all great. The shrimp fried rice was ok. I prefer mine with very little soy sauce and this was heavy with it. I've never been given so much shrimp with my dishes anywhere and it was good shrimp Server was very pleasant and kind of

    Excellent, friendly service. Not a fancy place, but I was comfortable. Lunch and combinations offer great deals. Can't beat the prices. Loved the massive amounts of vegetable in the pork chow mein. Have been looking for good egg foo young in the area, so hope to try that next time and hoping to be delighted.

    Oh my goodness!! The hugest rave to Chins Chinese. This was our first time trying and it is definitely a new favorite of mine!! The owner was so friendly & humorous. Our food was absolutely amazing, the crab puffs were so incredible that I ordered another order to go. And it came out so quickly! Very attentive and delicious. I super recommend!!

    We have many good Chinese spots in Sacramento. In town for about a week and tried this hole in the wall. We were skeptical because of the name but still gave it a tried. The place was clean and neat. Lots of seating area. Service and food were excellent!! I would recommend this place and would go there again. Lots of food options. Tried the following: Cashew chicken - this was ok but very few cashews in the dish. General chicken - this was good. Would order again. Sweet and tangy. My shu beef - best dish in my opinion. Highly recommend. It's like the Chinese version of a taco/burrito. This place surprised us. Good Americanized Chinese food.

    Cashew Chicken and Pork Fried Rice -- YUMMO!

    Chin's is Humboldt Counties best kept secret. We always have a good meal there. Highlights are General Tso's Chicken, Sesame Prawns, Pork Fried rice, and for an appetizer, Crab Cheese Puffs. Ambience is not so much. Many of the booths upholstery is held together with duck tape, but you go to Chin's for the food, not the ambience.

    I havent been here years never thought the donuts were special. Though I haven't visited in person…read morein about 5 years until this morning, I recently had their apple fritter a week ago which a coworker had brought in to work. It left a very waxy film in your mouth unlike donut mill which makes exceptional apple fritters. I assume they use some solid frying oil like shortening or something. But the real reason for leaving this review is as I came in. I asked for a round glazed cinnamon roll. It was 6.95. An apple fritter was 6.95. A dozen donut holes was 5.95 a glazed donut was 2.95. Are you absolutely out of your mind? The donuts are so mid tier and youre charging more for that filth than a local bakery does for their pastries. Absolutely out of your minds. We would always make fun of this place because the lady would be so obnoxious and always be like and then and then and then what else what else you want what else you want and then what else you want. Like nothing I want one donut that's it. Thank god she wasnt there this morning and it was some other gentlemen. I gladly told him I didn't know donuts were so expensive and I walked out. How does this place still exist a dozen regular donuts are 40 dollars

    Worst Donut Shop Experience of My Life. Stay Away. I don't…read moreeven know where to begin. $37.50 for a dozen donuts. Let that sink in. When I had the audacity to ask what justified that price, the owner didn't just fail to answer -- she turned immediately hostile, became openly rude to me, and then tried to enlist other customers in the store to gang up on me. In a donut shop. Over a price question. Rather than addressing my concern professionally, she attempted to drag strangers into the confrontation -- what should have been a straightforward conversation between a business owner and a paying customer turned into something embarrassing and hostile. A business owner who responds to basic questions by belittling customers and stirring up conflict has no business running a business. On top of that, the store itself was visibly dirty. Cleanliness is non-negotiable when you're handling food that people put in their mouths -- it's the bare minimum. The hygiene standards on display were deeply concerning and off-putting. This place deserves zero stars. If you value your money, your dignity, and basic food safety standards, do yourself a favor and drive right past it. I will not be returning.

    Driving through Northern CA and did not expect such a filling and fun meal…read more This spot is definitely a Chinese, Korean, Japanese fusiony spot that I did not expect to find here. We ordered the Chinese Style Lamb Stew, Cheese Corn, Kung Pao Vegetables, and it came with a side of banchan. Every single dish here was absolutely delicious and piping hot! We ended up ordering a second plate of banchan because it was so good. The daikon radish had the most satisfying crunch and the others- cabbage and bean sprouts were very well pickled too! Cheese corn was sweet and honestly a good pairing with the very soury/ pickled soup. The kung pao vegetables would have definitely fooled me if I wasn't told it was mushroom. The batter holds on the oyster mushrooms just like chicken does. Well seasoned. Service was very impressive - there was a single waitress serving lots of tables. She had amazing recommendations and really seemed like she knew what she was doing. Very kind and attentive the entire time. Would love to return.

    Súper disappointed. We have come here several times and usually really enjoy our food-- I don't…read moreknow if today was an off day or we got too experimental but we were shocked tonight. The pan fried chicken dumplings were from Costco, the spicy beef ramen left much to be desired and had an extremely dry egg. And then my friends chow mein came out half way through our meal (they forgot), had no veggies and was sweet?? They kind of attempted to fix it, so we were willing to let things go. That was one thing, then as we were waiting for them to pick up our card to pay, our server, Mira, loudly complained to her coworker about us sending the food back and how we were "pissed" (we weren't, until she started almost yelling about the situation to her coworker). Extremely unprofessional. Makes us second wanting to return in the future.
