    I really wanted to like this place! Ordered 4 dishes and only one was decent. House fried rice was bland and meat was questionable. General Chicken was tough, over fried and the sauce had a weird burnt taste. The egg foo young also lacked flavor though the sauce was good-the omeletted had chunks of dough/flour or whatever binder they used. Unfortunate because this order was $85 and half is going in the bin and I won't back.

    THIS is worth $13.99! I kid you not this is how it came once opened. 5-6 shrimp & a whole lot of rice.

    Love coming here for their house special fried rice. But now they went up on their prices & the proportions got smaller. If I would've known this, I would've went elsewhere. It was good while it lasted.

    Wayne's Wok has been a staple in the community of over 32 years. I have been coming here for The last 20 years. Since 2020 The service and food quality has greatly declined. The service was horrible. The food is served in to go containers even though we choose to eat inside. It was paperplates and papercups with plastic utensils. I had asks for water and napkins. The food quality was absolutely disgusting. The food tasted like it was spoiled and overcooked. I would not recommend this place or be returning here again.

    Orange Chicken over steamed rice

    What if I told you this place has the best orange chicken in town?? I've been going to Wayne's Wok for years. Its not a flashy establishment. Its figuratively what people call a hole in the wall and telling by how long they've been up and running.. Its working for them. I discovered this place when I was a kiddo and my dad used to bring to-go plates home from work. specifically the orange chicken! I've been to a good share of Chinese restaurants and I think its fair to say that every business has their own way of making their food. Out of them all.. I can easily say that Wayne's Wok has the best orange chicken! I get it over steamed rice and their servings sizes are huge. Shareable to say the least. It comes with a few pieces of broccoli because "health" LOL. The chicken is crispy and the sauce is on point! Not drenched in sauce but not dry, just perfect. Another banger here is their crispy pepper (JUMBO) shrimp and asparagus. comes mixed with jalapenos and is an explosion of deep fried flavors.

    Still the best shrimp fried rice. Wish I could find another place as good as this one, but I can't!

    I was excited to try this spot as it states it was established in 1939 with some great history…read more Personally for me the interior seemed a bit out dated with low lighting. However, our server was incredibly well informative and friendly. We ordered and enjoyed our meal. Food comes out family style and we were incredibly full. My only criticism was that the orange chicken seemed to have no crunch. We had vegetarian tofu and mushroom dish that had a great flavor profile. I especially loved the fried rice as it tasted similar to the cooking profile of a Benihana style fried rice.

    In honor of dear dad, we decided to check out a famous spot located next to the Sacramento state…read morecapitol called Franks Fats. Circa 1939 and stamped on the cement at the front door. This is a famous Chinese food spot for local politicians for lunch and NBA stars and now the Oakland A baseball team. There is no back door or underground tunnel entrance or exit. Our server Yee was super nice and he liked us so much that he gave us a free slice of their famous banana pie. This pie is made fresh everyday. The pastry chef has 2 sous chefs to help. Their orders can be up to 300 pies a day! This very flaky thin crust with the beautiful layered at an angle with a fresh whipped cream topping. We wanted to try it but didn't want to get super full. We ended up finishing the complimentary piece of pie. We also had the wok fried pork spareribs that had this lovely seasoned jalapeño with that crispy bite but be careful of the bones. It reminded us of chicken wings. That crunchy crispy outside with perfectly cooked meat on the inside. The tip was to use the hot mustard and ketchup to dip it in. They give you a plate of various sauces from mild to super spicy. The sweet and sour soup is also made fresh every day with chunky vegetables with lots of flavors. We had the shrimp dumplings which were freshly made. The crab rancons were our favorite with chili sauce. These beautifully star shaped treasures were our favorites. We were super full. Parking was available due to no games going on. The street has parking but next door there is a valet lot for 12 dollars. If you're ever in the area, this is a must try experience. The place was packed but they let us stay and close the place down! Hence, this is why they've been open since 1939. Mahalo Timothy O'Connor for the recommendation! Loved the Buddha belly by the bar area up top.

    Absolutely delicious Chinese food! One of the best in the US. I'm also biased because I order off…read moremenu items. We usually call in 1 week in advance and order the coral shrimp and salt and pepper lobster. Their gourd melon clam soup is sooooo good. So is the double golden fried rice. These are our absolute must orders. We have enjoyed everything so far but the must order items are just delightful. They're very good about swapping out fresh plates. The servers are all very very very nice and attentive. The outside is unassuming but the inside is very nice and clean. Even the bathrooms are very clean. They play Chinese pop so I get to listen to good music too. They only have beer but you can byob and they'll provide the glassware too. I can't wait to be back again!

    Came here on a Sunday. It was just before 6 PM. It wasn't too crowded and got a table right away…read more Soon after we ordered and tons of people came in just after 6. The place got pretty full so I was glad to get there early. We ordered the Preserved egg pork Congee. It's the thing we get all the time now. They make it really well and my wife and I like it. She loves the egg but I let her eat that. I am not so much into that 100 year old egg. We always get the Shrimp wanton and love that too. This is our go to place lately for these two dishes. They do a good job and we are in and out in less than 45 minutes. The place is cute with little toy collectables throughout the store. The staff are nice and we come here like 2x a month or more. Worth a try I think you will like the food here.
