Loved everything our dinner here! This restaurant had been on my radar for sometime, but the fact that it was called Folsom Palace lead my brain to believe it was in Folsom-took me a minute to grasp that it was actually right down the street from me in Citrus Heights. Our usual family of four was a family of three for the evening and this was the restaurant we chose. Boy did family member number four miss out! The service was impeccable from the moment that we walked in. That includes being greeted right away. The waitstaff was incredibly attentive and on top of the details. We ordered some pretty standard items off the menu to please everyone-vegetable chow mein, lemon chicken and pot stickers. Even though these might sound like boring dishes, they actually came out with such flair! The presentation on the dishes were gorgeous. They tasted amazing as well. I love the lighting of the restaurant. It gave it such a chill vibe. It's on a very busy street but you've never know it once you walk in it kind of feels like you are more tucked away in a smaller neighborhood.. I'm definitely looking forward to the next visit where I can try some more items like their Korean short ribs, I'd love to try some of their Curry's and a lot more of their chef specials! read more

The food served at both the Folsom & Sunrise Ave location is delicious! Both times we ordered the Honey Walnut Prawns (not listed on the menu) and loved them. Other dishes were equally as tasty. Highly recommend these establishments. Server was attentive but not hovering. Decor and low noise levels were appreciated. read more

One of the best Chinese restaurant's I have ever had. We usually come once a month and buy a bunch of their dishes to feed the whole family. Authentic food, all good ingredients. Cant ask for more. Everything is good, the Wonton soup is the best ive ever had, same with the clay pot dishes, Kung Pao, and Sweet and Sour Pork. Sadly today we ordered over $160 worth of food and my favorite dish (Beef Eggplant Clay pot) did not have any meat and tasted quite off. I have eaten this dish on 10 different occasions and its always amazing, but this time it was just not good, not to mention they forgot my beef! I woulda drove back and got a replacement but I live too far. Not sure how they forgot the beef in the beef dish, but here we are. Hoping they reach out to rectify the issue. read more

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! read more

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! read more

I usually love this place but last evening I ordered some items to go for myself and my son . After eating I started not feeling very well .

I called the restaurant the next morning to explain both of us got sick and I was told a manager will call us back which did not happen . read more

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! read more

Tea service - to start was wonderful. Came in at the end of the day right before closing. All of the staff was very friendly. Our food was incredible. Have to say end of the day best time to come in. Looking forward to coming back. read more

I took my food to go, but I can see why people want to dine in. Overall, too expensive for 'take out'

So my friend has always raved about this place so my partner and I decided to swing by on a whim and ordered some food. LET ME TELL YOU THIS PLACE IS THE BEST. Like, hands down. I really enjoyed their plates. I ordered Thai Basil Chow Fun and my partner ordered Mongolian beef with a side of rice and both plates were amazing. FYI: the places are pretty large which could feed up to two or maybe three people. The customer service was absolutely phenomenal, our server was so patient and kind. He recommended all sorts of good dishes to choose from. I highly recommend this restaurant if you're looking for Asian fusion cuisine. I'll definitely be coming back. read more

This was a hard review to give a number to. I'll explain. First of all, I've been here several times and the food is excellent. The restaurant is pretty inside and comfortable and clean. There is seating inside and out. The wait staff is friendly and attentive. My review is based on a situation that happened the last time I went in for lunch. I got my bill and it was not correct, according to their menu and their website. The website says one price for lunch special, the in person hard cover menu says another price and I was charged five dollars more than both of those prices. I had Sweet and Sour Chicken lunch which was a small portion of chicken and a small portion of Fried Rice. No appetizer with the lunch special. I did not want the soup. It was $18.95 on my bill. I had an order of six pot stickers and my lunch portion of chicken and water....and the bill was (with 20% tip) $43.50. Yes, $43.50 for one person for lunch. I knew the price was incorrect and asked my waiter. He said oh yeah, they've raised the prices two times....but never changed the online menu or the hard cover table menu. I don't think this is okay. There was not a manager or anyone available to talk to about it. The price for both items I had was more than advertised. I do not have the means to spend that much for lunch for one person! So unfortunately I won't come back to this good spot. I will reiterate, the food is good! read more

Long time residents of Fair Oaks and we haven't tried this restaurant until this tonight. The ambiance is nice. The lead in the dining room was wearing a red chef jacket and his personality was outstanding. Super friendly and made our restaurant experience. We had a lady and another gentleman in all black serving us as well. They are clearly a team here. We ordered crab cheese puff appetizer, black pepper chicken, an the Singapore Rice Noodles. They were all delicious, all large portions and more than enough for 2 of us. We are pleased we tried one of our local restaurants and will be back. read more

Best Chinese food I have had in a very long time. The Mongolian beef was so tender and sizzling hot. The Szechuan chicken was packed with flavor and veggies were crunchy (which is how I like it). The combination chow fun was also incredible. Service was great. The ambiance is spectacular; there are multiple TVs and a bar, so you can watch a sporting event while eating excellent Chinese food lol. I will definitely come back read more

Overall, this spot is like a glorified Panda Express. 2 of our dishes arrived wrong, and the quality and taste of the other dishes were just average. Items seemed to be smothered in sauce, and the meat is chewy and not good quality for the price you're paying. For dinner, they do not offer combo options, everything is a la carte. So if you order a meat dish, you have to also order rice or noodles separate. Service was extremely slow, 15 minutes to get our waters, no refills, and no one to come get our check until we flagged someone down twice. I don't understand the positive reviews. This was also on a Tuesday night. You are better off going to your neighborhood Chinese spot than this place. $75 for two for Chinese food? I would expect far better. read more

If you're looking for some fresh Chinese cuisine with an emphasis on healthier options this is the place. Low sodium, no MSP and less oil too. It's obvious when you try the food. The ingredients are fresh and very good flavors. Service was very good as well. I like the decor and ambiance as well. Parking can be a minor issue but there is plenty of parking in the back or around the corner. Definitely coming back to try out other dishes and provide a revised review. Potentially 5 stars....we'll see. read more

The food was good. The lemon pepper chicken was fire. The sweet and sour chicken was delicious and lastly the chicken rice was good. The service was on point and he never missed a beat. The environment was nice and the ambiance of the place was dope. Music was great. Very calm and good vibes read more

The place is very nice and modern. I was greeted quickly by a very friendly gentleman. I observed several people eating at the tables. I placed a to-go order around 1pm on a weekday. It took about 10 minutes to receive my order. I ordered one of the lunch combinations of chicken chow mein, rice, and chicken w/ veggies. It tasted good and satisfied my craving for Chinese food that day. Parking was available and easy considering the lot is shared by a few other businesses. Overall, good chinese food and great customer service. read more

Folsom Palace - Outside of business and lunch combo. - Asian Fusion Near Me - Citrus Heights, California

I've been wanting to try since Ive driven by and read the reviews. It exceeded my expectations and everything we had was great. Started with fried calamari and pot stickers and both were great but the pot stickers were top notch. Also had the Pork Chow Mein which was one of the better I've had. Lemon Chicken was crunchy and amazing. Mongolian Beef was killer and the honey walnut prawns were huge and the sauce was very good. My son said it was the best he's had. It might be a bit pricey compared to some places but its worth it in the taste and service. It'll be a go to moving forward. Long review but it was delicious. read more

Folsom Palace - Honey Walnut Prawns 10/10 - Asian Fusion Near Me - Citrus Heights, California

Tuesday afternoon lunch. Dining room not busy. Immediately greeted by a happy and gracious hostess. Seated at the premium front window table. Nice furniture modern and sleek. Comfortable chairs. As you can see from many Yelp photos the dining room is delightful chaos of colors, many mismatched (yet matching) ceiling drop lamps, wall sconces full of knick-knacks, and a giant TV screen over the bar. I didn't get bored looking around the place. I ate the $15 Kung Pao chicken combo lunch meal. The introductory hot and sour soup was just that. Lots of black pepper in it. I like peppercorns and spicy food so the soup was great. Thick broth, many small cubes of soft tofu, nibs of green onions. The main dish of oh so tender spicy chicken slices with a medley of crispy fresh wok fried vegetables was good enough. A bit on the sesame seed oily side. I chose chow mein noodles for the starch. Had the same sauce as the kung pao so the plate in its entirety was a bit boring. None the less I did gobble up every noodle. Portion big enough that I boxed up at least 1 cup of food for a take home 2nd meal. I'll make dry ramen and throw the kung pao on top. I have not eaten restaurant Chinese American food for 6 months. This meal was a nice re-introduction. Maybe return for dinner when I can shamelessly order a glass of wine or 2. There's some respectable wines on the list. Priced at $8 - $13 per glass that's a bargain worth another visit. read more

Amazing staff, very attentive, you feel like you know them upon minutes of meeting them. They go the extra mile to make you feel comfortable, and this is just the service. The food on the other hand, amazing! Try their Singapore noodles with extra curry sauce and you will not be dissatisfied. I like ambiance, it feels new and refreshing. This is odd, but the bathrooms are near to check out, there's a whole light show in them! read more

Great service with friendly staff. The food is well prepared and ingredients are obviously fresh. Best Chinese Food so far for us in the area. read more

Today was raining and windy so Chinese food sounded right. This is our 4th time here and probably our last. Silverware was stained, and the plates and bowls were badly chipped and my Mongolian Beef was barely passable, tough, chewy and tasteless. I think we'll stay with Pho Viet. read more

I have visited this place three times and the interior dining area seemed inviting and service was timely. The food was decent and it was convenient when driving on Sunrise. It felt each time I noticed the food portions were not enough and now I know why - they add a bed of decorative cabbage and flower on top of it on every plate to "fill it out". The illusion was to make the plates look like it had a normal sized portion. The last time I ate there, I ordered a $28.95 Steamed seabass among other dishes. The tiny piece of fish came out, and it was probably no more than 5 oz; the usual cabbage and rose aforementioned above then a bed of vegetables underneath the piece of fish plus ton of onions on top with lettuce below scattered all around the plate. We had to stop the server and ask, why is this so small for the price? He replied if you want bigger, we are gonna have to charge you extra and walked off. Looking at their short ribs dish, there was a bed of broccoli underneath it also. That is really deceptive and charging more than most places for the small dish is just plain wrong in my opinion. Another shocker at the end is when I received the bill, they quietly tacked on an additional dollar on each food entree order plus the hot tea was nearly $6! When they noticed me start comparing my bill to the menu, they came by and told me they had posted this "obsure" note on the counter that no one can see from their tables. A quick glance shows they implemented this policy back in Feb but the guy said they just haven't order new menus yet to show the chance and laughed. It has been 4 months and seeing that my "3 bite" fish is now $29.99 instead, I was quite angry. Nevertheless, I am not paying an extra 4 to 6 dollars a dish to eat here, especially when there are many other good and better places. read more

We came here because they have Peking Duck. Even though we came at lunch and the duck is on the dinner menu we were able to get it.

I've driven past Folsom Palace hundreds of times and never thought to stop in--until recently, when my family and I decided to visit on a whim. I'm so glad we did! The food was absolutely delicious. Everything tasted like it had just come out of the kitchen (because I think it did!). The calamari was light, crispy, and perfectly seasoned--some of the best I've had. The moo shu was fantastic, and all the sauces were spot-on. Even the water, served with slices of fresh orange, was unexpectedly amazing. The interior is beautiful--super clean, quiet, and relaxing with light jazz music playing in the background. They also have a full bar, which is a nice bonus. But the real standout? The service. The team was warm, attentive, and genuinely kind. They made the whole experience feel extra special. This place is a total hidden gem. If you haven't tried it yet, do yourself a favor and check it out. We'll definitely be back! read more

Saturday, 9/21/2024 - tried "Folsom Palace" fir the first time. Address is 5450 #E Sunrise Blvd, Citrus Heights, CA. I've seen this restaurant a few doors down from Nation's Giant burgers. So... we went to try them. Upon arrival... Pros 1) limited parking, but it's free parking. 2) they have indoor and outdoor seating. 3) The hostess is also the waiter. He's super nice and welcoming. 4) the server checked in on us a few times. Talked very nicely and calm voice. 5) The lady came and refilled our water cups. Water tasted great. 6) food tasted great! Sichuan chicken was perfect! Sweet and sour pork was....meh. But not bad. A little on the dry, harder side. Crab meet cheese puffs were good. 1 side of rice cost $3.00, FYI. 7) Restaurant looked clean; tables and chairs clean; utensils, plates, cups all looked clean. 8) There are two bathrooms with one stall in each. It's for men and women. Cons: 1) they do not have a kids menu. 2) a small side of rice for 1 person is $3.00. Conclusion We liked this restaurant. Foods were good. Staffs nice. Restaurant looked cleaned. I didn't see a baby changing station in the bathroom I went to. But not sure if there's one in the other bathroom. We definitely will try this place again. read more

Absolutely delicious every time! Food, drinks and service are always excellent. Love this place.

Worth the price! We come here often to treat ourselves. Food is always good, never upsets my tummy (lots of foods do unfortunately) and the staff are always friendly and efficient. We've never dined in, only take away, but the ambience is nice so we'll have to give it a go sometime. read more

f you're craving good Chinese food, Folsom Palace is definitely the place to go! I highly enjoyed my visit and was impressed with both the food and the overall experience. Everything we ordered was delicious and full of flavor. We tried the spring rolls, Spicy Szechuan beef, broccoli beef, and the crispy pan-fried noodles, and every dish was excellent. The spring rolls were perfectly crispy, the Spicy Szechuan beef had just the right amount of heat, the broccoli beef was tender and well-seasoned, and the crispy pan-fried noodles were especially delicious and a standout for our table. The restaurant itself is clean, comfortable, and welcoming, making it a great place to enjoy a meal whether you're dining in or picking up takeout. Service was pleasant and efficient, which made the experience even better. I highly recommend Folsom Palace for anyone looking to satisfy their Chinese food craving. I'll definitely be coming back! read more

Came here with the family because we were craving Chinese food and wanted to try a new place. I've been driving past this spot every day when going to work so thought it would be a good to try it this time. There were 5 of us so we ordered a good amount. We also came around lunch time on a Saturday and were immediately seated. The interior was very clean and the decors were very appealing to the eye. I loved the ceiling decorations. We ordered Fried calamari, Canton fried rice chicken, Chow mein beef, Sesame chicken, Thai basil tofu, Beijing beef, Korean BBQ pork chop, General tso chicken, Broccoli with three kind mushroom, and Hong Kong style black mushroom and baby bok choy. Even with all the food we ordered, there was hardly a wait at all so the food came out so fast! Our service was also great as they refilled our waters in a timely manner and even took time to take our family pictures. After they were done eating, they gave us fortunate cookies and oranges that were cut up really pretty! Overall, this place was definitely a good spot when craving Chinese food and we will definitely be back. read more
