    Lunch Menu
    Joy H.

    This is an update to my review from several months ago. On this occasion I decided to eat in, instead of ordering to go. My visit was for a late lunch. I was greeted by a very nice gentleman and seated right away. The place is very nice, bright and has a kind of low key comforting vibe. I loved the jazz music that was playing in the background. I ordered brocolli chicken with chow mein. The egg drop soup tasted great (especially on this gloomy, chilly afternoon). My order came out in about 5 to 7 minutes. It was nice and hot and very tasty. There was enough on the plate for 2 meals. The jazz music playing in the background made this an enjoyable leisurely lunch for me. I will have lunch here again very soon.

    Our group wanted some good wonton soup so we looked up Google reviews & this place had the best reviews. We were warmly greeted upon arrival. Waitress gave us a few minutes to make our decision and our order was processed and receive within minutes. Our order arrived fresh + hot and you can tell all the vegetables were freshly prepared that day in fact it was apparent that the seafood was not frozen. The dining room is very inviting, comfortable, relaxing, and trendy. It makes you forget you're not at home. I strongly recommend this place as a go to restaurant because it will be on my list.

    True rating: 3.5/5 My husband and I came here for lunch and got their Sichuan chicken and pork with eggplant dish. For the lunch special it was $15.75/each. Came with a hot and sour soup. We felt like the dishes were good but not very memorable. They also didn't feel very "meat" heavy. There were a ton of veggies for both plates which can be nice but felt it was skimping on the meat. The soup was actually my favorite! The inside is very clean and modern. Service was quick, nice, and attentive! I'm glad we went to try a new restaurant but not dying to go back. Looking for some other new and yummy Chinese restaurants around sac!

    12-25-2025 4:30 pm. Ambiance: Awesome setting. You have several big screen TVs to watch sports while waiting for your food. You can view the kitchen while they cook your meals. Pretty awesome. Service: Amazing. We had nine people and our waters and drinks stayed full. The food was served fresh, hot, and correctly. Nice selection of beer, sodas, and wine. Food: The best Chinese food in the Sacramento area; hands down. Everything we tried was amazingly delicious. I particularly enjoyed the Bejing Beef and Baos. We paid for 4 people and with 20% tip the total was 200.00. Worth every penny!

    Here's a natural English version of your review: Overall, I really enjoyed the dish. The noodles were flavorful and well-seasoned, the shrimp were cooked perfectly, and the vegetables were fresh. Everything tasted great together. However, for $20, I expected a little more. There were only 4 shrimp in the box, which feels like too little for the price. If they had included at least 6-8 shrimp, it would have been much better. The food is delicious, but the value for the money could definitely be improved.

    We stumbled upon Folsom Palace while in the area and what a great decision. The decor inside the restaurant is colorful, classy, and such a vibe. I loved it and the service! Wow amazingly friendly and accommodating. Our server had a lot of energy. We ordered the wonton soup, pork fried rice, chicken Thai basil chow fun and the Korean bbq short ribs. Everything tasted delicious and came out hot! You'll have to stop by and check it out for yourself!

    Failed inspection

    The Chicken here was very off tasting. It felt raw and very sweet. The water had slimy lemon looking parts but didn't ask for lemon water so I am not sure what was in it. The man that helped us had a foamy mouth and not someone I would want handling my food. Not sure where all the good reviews are coming from. Will never eat here again. Look up health inspections for this place. They have failed and do not have green pass on their door.

    Thin fillet of Cantonese Style  Salmon, Sea Bass

    I was impressed by how clean and modern the restaurant was. We had a chicken dish, tofu, and the crispy noodles, and all three were great. The dishes were flavorful, and the chicken and tofu came with generous portions of mixed stir-fried vegetables. I was actually sitting in the restaurant, ready to write a five-star Yelp review, when the Cantonese sea bass arrived. For $30, it was a tiny, roughly 1 cm-thick fillet of white fish. I had been trying to order the crispy version, but perhaps due to my error, the steamed version with ginger and soy sauce came out. It still did taste good. But seriously, many restaurants serve a whole fish for that price, not a small, previously frozen fillet. It disappeared in about five minutes, which was disappointing, especially since the portions of everything else were reasonable. When I come back I will confirm if they have whole fish,otherwise I would pass. Finally, I would recommend they offer a real homemade crunchy chili oil without vinegar. What they brought out looked and tasted more like oily sambal than chili oil. Overall, the food and atmosphere were very good, but the sea bass kept this from being a five-star experience.

    0.5 stars Extremely…read moreoverpriced and very disappointing, especially for the portions and quality of the food. I was charged $47 when my actual receipt total was $41. I paid with a $50 bill and was initially given only about a dollar in change. I had to point out that I hadn't received the correct change before I was given the rest. The whole situation was very confusing and concerning. As for the food, the egg rolls were not crispy and the outside was extremely thick. The fried rice looked dark and flavorful, but unfortunately it was very bland. You also have to purchase soy sauce separately, and they charge $0.50 per packet. The orange chicken had good flavor, but the portions were very stingy. There wasn't much meat, and the amount of rice was also small considering how much everything costs. The young girl working the front may have been inexperienced, because the change and total situation was handled incorrectly. I'm not sure if it was a mistake or what happened, but being charged $47 when my receipt showed $41 was frustrating. For the prices, I expected much better food, portions, and service. This was my first time here and unfortunately it will be my last. I would not recommend this place based on my experience.

    A Cantonese style dinner memory Growing up in the 60's…read moretoday's youngsters probably won't remember when you were lucky to have a Chinese Restaurant nearby where your family would go for special occasions to share a traditional American Chinese food dinner. There were few restaurants and no such thing as fast food. Family... We loved it because we would see my Uncle and Auntie and sit at a large round table and enjoy a great variety of dishes we shared with the whole family , of course only on special occasions. This was well before the Pandas of the world, today's fast food, take out evolution and I can't say that it's better other than the variety of Taiwan, Sichuan, Asian fusion highly creative dishes, every type of Chinese food you can think of. But stepping into Rose Garden brings back those past memories, you know the type you forgot about, until a flavor or dish you know the taste of familiarity that brings back good memories. Well ,I have to say Rose Garden is a great place to find Cantonese food at a great price with food that will remind you of family dinners. So if you're on the road to Tahoe and crave Cantonese food , this restaurant sits between the 50 and 80 freeway just outside Sacramento in Roseville. Service welcoming and fast!

    My friend and I got takeout and it was pretty disappointing. There was hardly any beef or prawns in…read morethe Singapore Rice Noodle dish, but it was just as well because the prawns were obviously farmed and they tasted dirty to me. There wasn't much flavor either. I didn't really get curry from it. It did present as yellow so it must have had some turmeric in it. Similar issue with the Beef Chow Mein. It was mostly noodles and the sauce wasn't very flavorful at all, mostly because it was almost non-existent. One extra star because the noodles were cooked properly. They would have been even better if they had been cooked Hong Kong style. But the menu didn't say that so no points off for that. There was a lack of heart and inspiration in these dishes. We doctored both dishes with sauces.

    Review #666 Spoooky!!!! Lol…read more Wow!! Delicious!! After our day date, we worked up an appetite. He told me about Beijing Gourmet and how good he thought it was. Haha, ok. I'll bite. We were about 20 minutes away when we ordered by phone. We went with some Sesame Chicken and Chicken Chowmein. When we arrived we were still waiting since they were making orders ahead of us. We sat in the dining room, which is not set up for anyone to dine in. This seemed to be only a pick up type of place. After about 15 more minutes our order was ready. The woman was so nice and packed up a couple plates, with silverware, napkins, soy sauce, and fortune cookies. We hopped back into the truck and drove back to his house for the remainder of our date. After another 20 minute drive, we went inside and out food was still piping hot! The only issue we had was that the paper plates were so thin. We literally only got 2 of the thinnest plates you could find on the market. Putting anything on them would bleed through... so if you ask for plates double or triple up what you really need. The Sesame Chicken was very good. Cooked fresh. The crunch on the outside of the chicken and the taste of the sauce was spot on. The Chicken Chowmein noodles were just as delicious! This spot was so close to my parents house, I am so surprised I had never discovered it! Good food ended with a gorgeous night!!

    04.26.26 Mama (that's me) was in the mood for some Chinese,…read moreso instead of taking hubby for a sit down spot in Roseville/Granite Bay I've been meaning to take him to, we opted for takeout close to home. We've tried several spots in the area after our typical go-to hadn't been great the last few times we ordered. So, I turned to my trusty Yelp and found Pearl House. Hubs knew exactly where it was--next door to Grocery Outlet. I thought it was closed last time we were at GC, like closed closed. So when we saw pics from 3days ago, we knew that wasn't the case. Being 7pm on a Sunday, we saw they closed at 9pm. So, looked at their menu online, we decided on our order: Hubs' go-to whenever trying a new place is General Tso's Chicken, and I tried something new-Happy Family because I was in the mood for a protein variety dish, and this had quite the variety: scallop, shrimp, calamari, crabmeat, chicken, BBQ pork, and beef with a plethora or veggies. We also wanted egg rolls. I called and a lady answered, took my order, and said it'd be ready in 10min. Didn't take my name or number-wow! Not only did I think that was kinda crazy, but TEN minutes?!?! This was either gunna blow my mind or be horrible. We drove over and upon entering there were a few people inside leaving--not sure if they were also to-go or has finished eating there. I looked around and saw many empty tables, but clean looking dining room area. A lady behind the counter wearing a face mask asked to help me. I let her know I was there to pick up, and she asked what I ordered. Our order was already boxed up ready to go. Our total? $41 before tip. I asked her if they did sit down, she confirmed yes. Then I told her it was my first time in there, to which she asked where I lived and that they've been there for 37 YEARS! Then she said she hopes we like our food and to see us again. I grabbed a to-go menu and went on my way. The food smelled good and when we got home, I grabbed my own chopsticks and hot chili oil, and was ready to grub. In the box, besides our ordered food, they included sweet & sour sauce for the egg rolls, as well as soy sauce packets and individually wrapped fortune cookies. I first went for an eggroll, which was surprisingly longer in length than most other places. Took a bite and enjoyed that wonderful crispy outside texture, and saw it was veggie only inside--whomp, whomp. In my mind, these should really be called spring rolls. However, these had some REALLY great flavor!! Hubs enjoys meat in his rolls, but after explaining the flavor, he still tried one himself and was quite happy with it. He had taken a bite of his GT Chicken and said it was pretty good. He said it tasted a little too sweet, almost dessert-y, but that it was also really good. I tried a small piece and liked how crispy it was even in all the sweet sauciness. Then I opened my dish and boy oh boy did it look good. Now before I talk about how it tasted, I need to explain what I thought I was getting. The menu said all those proteins I mentioned, and that it was tossed with snow pea pods, broccoli tips, mushrooms (which I ordered without) and baby corn. All veggies I enjoy! So, what my dish actually came with (as you can see in my pic), there was onions, carrots, celery, bamboo shoots, water chestnuts, NO calamari or baby corn or BBQ pork. That all said, I was most disappointed in not having the calamari, BBQ pork or baby corn. Sad, yes. But the overall dish made up for it. With that, I was not mad AT ALL, and surprisingly ate the entire thing in one sitting--NOT a usual thing for me!! Granted, I hadn't eaten since breakfast, but still. It was DEE-LICIOUS and I'll say Dee-approved!! I'm literally writing this review immediately after eating dinner because it was THAT good y'all! I couldn't not let my people know that Pearl House is legit and it's obvious why they've been around for 37 years. This may be our new go-to spot for that neighborhood Chinese food craving, IJS. So, if you're in the area and looking for some authentic Chinese cuisine, look no further and check out Pearl House for yourself. We most definitely will be back. P.S. And them fortune cookies are good too!
