Sarah T.

First time here. I ordered the Salted Fish Fried Rice. Also tried the wonton noodles. I like the egg noodles & soup was tasty. The fried rice was good but it is salty. I added chili oil to it. The chili oil is good & it's not too spicy. Staff were friendly. It wasn't busy when I was first seated but shortly after only the 2 big tables were empty. Restaurant isnt really big. Looks like they get a few to go orders as well as I saw a few people in to order take out. Plenty of parking

Beef Chow Fun, Rice with Hainan Chicken
Freyda T.

It has been a minute since I have visited Rice & Noodle, and they never disappoint! Their portions are generous and food tastes fresh. I ordered a beef chow fun and hainan chicken rice plate to-go. I called in to order and the food was ready for pickup by the time I arrived (15 mins). Food was packaged well and didn't leak. The cashier was friendly and the restaurant looked bustling with people, so you know the food is good! Beef chow fun was good, not oily, and didn't skimp on beef. It could use more wok hei but flavor was there nonetheless! Hainan chicken was refreshing for the warm day and there were plenty of pieces, enough for me to portion for two meals. I appreciate the added vegetables too to balance the meal! Overall, would definitely recommend if you're looking for a solid place for chicken plates. I'm looking forward to trying more of the new items on the menu

Roasted duck
Xee H.

Best roasted duck in Sac, hands down! Skin is super crispy and glossy, meat is juicy and flavorful! The beef chow fun is also amazing too! You can tell the noodles are fresh, tender beef, crunchy bean sprouts and green onion. Everything tasted fresh and made with care. Will definitely be back!

Hainan Chicken rice plate served with ginger sauce and sweet soy sauce.

Happened to be in Elk Grove yesterday and stumbled upon this small mom-and-pop shop for a quick bite. My wife had the beef noodle soup, which was good. The broth is on the lighter side -- perfect as a hangover cure -- but she's more used to the richer, bolder styles of beef noodle soup. Just a heads-up if that's your preference too! I had the Hainan chicken rice plate. The chicken was perfectly cooked and served cold, with just a slight pink hue near the bone (not undercooked). The rice was seasoned beautifully -- I'd honestly come back just for this dish alone. They also served us complimentary small bowls of soup, which was a nice touch and much appreciated. The server was very kind and attentive. The interior has been recently renovated, and I really liked their new chairs and the elegant tables -- it gives the place a surprisingly fancy feel. I would definitely come back in the near future to try their other items.

Braised Pig Ears

I'm in between a 3.5 and 4 star because I want to try some of their other dishes to get a feel of their consistency. It's a comfortable sit-down restaurant that reminds me of home a little bit. I came by myself and was seated quickly. Service was great! It was mainly two people running the store front but they were both friendly and efficient with their work. I tried their House Special Noodles and their pork ear and tripe dish. The pork ear could have been a little softer and more seasoned but the beef tripe was on the saltier and juicier side so they balanced each other out. The house noodles are a big portion! Seasoned on the lighter end but I enjoyed the sauce. I didn't get to try the Hainan chicken this time but will have to try it next time!

Cream cheese rangoons
Yesah B.

I was a bit skeptical about coming here since the reviews are a mix of old and new management but our experience was very very positive and delicious! My gf and I were looking for good wonton soup and I managed to find this spot. And we agreed that this was the best wonton soup we've had! The broth was pork-based and very rich in flavor compared to other soups we've tried. It came with about 10 wontons and bok choy. We also ordered cream cheese rangoons and Haian chicken rice plate. Our server gave us a small bowl of egg drop soup and that was very tasty. Came small bits of tofu, corn, and a small price of chicken. The rangoons were standard but the wonton wrap was not as crunchy as I hoped. Still a solid appetizer. Last was the Hainan chicken rice plate. From other places, the chicken is usually prepared hot but served here, it was cold. Not something I would have expected but still a welcoming one. It was served with ginger and scallion sauce & sweet soy sauce. It also had bok choy and Hainan rice. A really good plate all around. The chicken flavor wasn't overwhelming and the rice was seasoned well. Overall, a perfect dining experience

Beef Chow Fun
Ellie N.

i ordered take out. the golden salt baked chicken was so so good, even my picky mom loved it. the chow fun was okay- will definitely return to get golden salt baked chicken again and to try other dishes.

Half Roasted Duck
Michelle C.

If you're craving real authentic flavors, this place delivers. Second visit and it still didn't disappoint. We had the roast duck, mapo tofu, and garlic green beans every dish was amazing. Crispy, juicy duck, rich and numbing mapo tofu, and seriously addictive green beans. One of the most authentic and satisfying meals I've had in a while. Definitely coming back.

Best place for comfort chinese food near my house! I come here once every week and the employees are always welcoming and friendly :) I even got complimentary soup as an appetizer. Cozy and warm decoration as well.

Menu April 2025
Lily N.

3.5 stars. New owners, new menu. They really should just be called something else but whatevs moving on .. They redecorated everything so all the tables/chairs/plates/etc are all nice and new. You also get table service now vs ordering at the counter. The service is very good! Food is still a little inconsistent for me, probably because they are still working out their kinks. One time it was not salty enough; another time they overcompensated and it was too salty lol. *Beef Chow Fun - 3/5, needs more "wok hay" *String beans - have been inconsistent but overall tastes fine *Chicken chow Mein - Flavor was fine but could use a little more veggies *Salt and pepper spare ribs - overly breaded but flavor was fine HK style lemon tea could use a little more syrup and ice :D

The food was amazing. Came out fast and hot. The chicken was cold because it's supposed to be cold. But overall I would recommend. The chili oil is a MUST. My husband put it on everything he ate cause the enjoyed the flavor. He said it balanced out the flavors. I prefer it without, but if you like little spicy, yes try it! The restaurant was well lit and the service was great. Our server was attentive and she was super nice. Will return to try other food!

Mongolian Beef
Kay C.

While looking for a Chinese Restaurant to patron, I took the advice of Google and visited this place after seeing it was considered a "Hidden Gem" in the community. I will tell you, I was NOT DISAPPOINTED. Upon walking in, I was greeted by the staff, and given a menu to look at the food options available. While waiting for the person in front of me to finish placing their order, I looked around and noted the atmosphere was nice, the floors and tables were clean, and the staff matched in their uniform shirts. (Cleanliness is a BIG plus for me.) Once I got to place my order the woman at the register made it a note to advise that while the menu didn't list it all, they did offer traditional dishes other Chinese restaurants offer. I ordered, Chicken Chow Mein, BBQ Pork Fried Rice, Mongolian Beef and BBQ Pork with their Chicken Egg Rolls to go. Once I got home and served it to my family for dinner, when I tell you all of us were pleased, I mean it! This place truly is a hidden gem. The flavors of the chow mein was impeccable. The peppers and onion taste of the Mongolian beef even better. The rice, fresh, not hard or stale, but perfectly cooked with even amounts of everything. The chicken egg roll. was a delight! I love egg rolls and it's hard to find a good one. Theirs is GOOD. So, I say all this to say, that if you're looking for a good restaurant when you're craving Chinese food, give this place a try.

House Special Noodles
Maisie W.

Giving this place a 5 stars because although there was only 1 waitress, she was attentive and always asking our table of 8 if we needed anything. A lot of the dishes ordered were Hainan chicken which I tied and did like. Stir fry green beans was as expected and just right in flavor. Note: you have to order ahead if you want duck otherwise it won't be available so my ordered chicken and that was crispy and good. I got house noodles and it was delicious. For mine, I would have liked less oil. For most, it's probably just right amount of oil. Our table had 2 kids and they were understanding which I appreciated.

When I heard this place served authentic Chinese beef noodle soup, I knew we had to try it. And we were not disappointed! The beef noodle soup was absolutely delicious, but what really stood out to me was the quality of the noodles. They had the perfect texture, just the right amount of bounce, and incredible flavor. You can really tell the difference when noodles are made right! I also loved the self-serve sauce and spice bar, where you could customize your soup exactly how you like it. Such a nice touch! We ordered a few side dishes too, including the rice cakes and pumpkin sesame balls, and both were amazing. Everything was packed with flavor. My wife loved it, my kids loved it, and I loved it. We all had a fantastic time, and it made my 50th birthday celebration even more special. If you're looking for authentic Chinese food, especially a really good bowl of beef noodle soup, definitely check this place out. Highly recommended!

The food quickly comes out piping hot and there is an unlimited condiment and topping bar that you can use to customize your bowl to your heart's content. The price is also very fair and they don't accept/require any tip so the price you see is the price you pay (with tax added on top). It also seems to be within a little Chinese/Asian plaza/shopping center so you can browse around after your meal too. The area seemed a little bit sketchy so I would be careful of your cars and don't leave any valuables in sight.

I assumed that Tuk Tuk wouldn't be as authentic...was I wrong! I ordered the chicken drunken noodles...probably the best I've had! It had so much flavor and was nice and saucey, just how I like it. Perfect amount of veggies and tender chicken. It comes in a bowl and was a generous portion, enough for 2 meals. I got mild for spice level and it was just enough for my tastebuds. My husband got the chicken pineapple fried rice. Again, a generous portion. He thought there wasn't enough pineapple or chicken but it looked like a decent amount of each in the bowl. Flavor was on point though. For a small upgrade we got a choice of appetizer, so we got the egg rolls and the potstickers. Both delicious. We also ordered Thai tea. I wish they offered a large size cup. Mine was gone in 2 minutes, it was that good! I did takeout since it was the last hour before closing. It was ready for pickup in about 20 minutes. When I arrived, the young ladies working in the front were cleaning the small dining area. Its cute and clean inside (although it smelled like Fabuloso, so I wouldn't want to dine in at that moment. LOL). Will definitely keep Tuk Tuk on my Thai rotation!

The noodles were nice, thick, and bouncy, but I felt that overall my bowl was drowning in liquid/sauce. I would be okay with it usually, but I found the sauce to be very salty making the dish hard to eat. The beef was pretty tender and vegetables were nice and soft. That said, I feel like I'd have to go home and fry a couple eggs to mellow out the sodium. It's definitely okay if you're in a quick pinch for food but not sure I'd actively seek it out.

The broth is flavorful and satisfying without being too heavy. The white tonkotsu is also very good if you're in the mood for something richer and creamier. Definitely don't skip the geso either! It's delicious and one of our favorite things to order alongside the ramen. Alternatively, if you're not in the mood for noodles, they have an excellent Tonkatsu Donburi. Ryujin can get pretty crowded around dinner, especially on colder nights when everyone seems to have the same idea, so I'd recommend planning accordingly and being prepared for a possible wait. It's worth it, though! Great ramen, authentic flavors, and a spot we're always happy to come back to.

There were not many people eating a late lunch. The place is clean and wall kept with plenty of seating. We opted for the black garlic Ramen and the spicy tonkatsu Ramen. Both were flavorful just not the best we've ever had. The black garlic Ramen was flavorful enough, and the portion was good to fill me up. The spicy tongue Katsu was not spicy at all and they didn't bring or offer any additional condiments like chili oil. We waited for someone to come back, but by that time we had already eaten half of our bowls. It wouldn't be my go to Ramen place in Sacramento as I would like to try other places before coming back. But if you're looking for a hearty bowl of soup that is fairly priced and decent, this is a good option.

I see the appeal even though I grew up with my mom's cooking and frequent visits to my local Chinatown. Impressively fast service for how busy they were. They immediately sat my friend and I, serving our beef noodle soup in mere minutes and our Xiao Long Bao approximately 10 minutes after. The Xiao Long Bao is acceptable in terms of the filling. However, it's on the drier side which can be partially alleviated by dipping them in soy sauce. I'm seeing that previous reviews share the same sentiment about the dryness. The beef noodle soup left me unimpressed -- substituting the usual beef broth with a tomato soup simply does not work. I'm trying my best not to critique this restaurant from an authenticity standpoint since they don't claim to serve anything true to native roots, but this broth swap made me chuckle. I'm assuming it was a price-saving measure. The beef itself tasted decent, especially with the addition of chili oil. The noodles tasted satisfactory as well, but I would have appreciated a higher proportion of beef relative to noodles. Despite their name, I'd wager a guess that their Chinese-American menu options fare better than the dumplings. Their broccoli beef, kung pao, and orange chicken all looked appetizing when I glanced at other customers' plates. If I do come back, I'll keep my eyes on those.
