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.

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!

Food is always bomb. No indoor seating. To go only. One of the best Chinese food spots in Sac.

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.

We haven't been to Frank's Fat in quite a while, and I've been meaning to return ever since I saw…read morethat they brought back the duck. Unfortunately, our experience this time was quite disappointing, especially because I used to really enjoy this restaurant. The Peking duck was not at all like I remembered. Previously, the skin was separated from the meat and cooked to a wonderfully crispy texture. This time, however, it didn't resemble authentic Peking duck style, and the meat was extremely dry, almost as if it had been overcooked. I was really looking forward to this dish, so it was a huge letdown. The eggplant stir-fry was another disappointment. It had far too much vinegar, making it almost difficult to eat. The orange chicken tasted good, but there were so many bones in it that my husband, who has sensitive teeth, had to be extra careful while eating. On a positive note, the spicy beef chow fun was excellent and easily the best dish of the night. I do want to give credit to our server, who was wonderful and attentive throughout our meal. They consistently made sure my water glass was filled, and I truly appreciated the great service. Unfortunately, despite the excellent service and the one standout dish, the overall food quality left us disappointed. It's sad to say that this may be our last visit, especially since I genuinely used to love this restaurant. I was hoping to enjoy the same quality that made me want to come back, but sadly, this visit fell short of my expectations.

The place I was going to go for lunch was closed, so my GPS brought me here. I was extremely happy…read morethat it did. A very nice restaurant. The people were very friendly and the place was very clean. They have a decent size menu.. I was here for the congee, but looking at the menu, I saw the rice paper rolls. They have gotten good reviews, so I decided to try the. Chinese donut rice paper rolls. I love the savory Chinese donuts. The donuts were wonderfully savory and crispy, and the silky rice paper played against the donuts, absolutely perfectly. I'm not sure what the sauce was that was on top of it, but I loved it. It was a perfect match to the rolls. I was only gonna have one and take one home, but they were so good, I ended up polishing off both of them. For my congee, I decided to try the grass carp congee. Carp are bottom feeders so they can definitely have a muddy flavor. However, grass carp, as their name implies, swim among the grasses. It is a firm, mild tasting fish. The congee was perfect, not too thick, not too thin, and I could definitely taste the ginger and the scallions. They played along perfectly with the mild flavor of the carp. Because I had polished off both of those rice paper rolls, I made it through about half of the congee, the rest coming home with me. For congee and other Chinese dishes, I now have another place that's in my rotation. I will be back. Thank you.

Really enjoyed our lunch here! We arrived before the rush on a Saturday and were quickly seated…read more The restaurant was clean and bright with lots of seating. All the servers were very nice and our food came out shortly after we ordered. We ordered the shrimp and chive steamed rice noodle, Chinese donut steamed rice noodle, shrimp pumpkin and salted egg, half roasted duck, preserved eggs pork congee, and 2 cold lemon teas. My favorites were the shrimp and chive steamed rice noodle and the pumpkin dish. I always look for this dish and am so excited when I see it's on the menu! In particular I thought this one was perfectly fried. Both the shrimp and the pumpkin were crispy, golden, and not oily at all. I thought the congee could use more flavor for me personally but the texture was really nice. The duck was also great! Crispy skin but juicy meat and great flavor. I enjoyed the tea but thought it was a little too sweet for me. I thought it was fairly priced with good portions. We had plenty of leftovers that all warmed up really well once we got home. I would definitely go back again and have already recommended Taste of Original to so many people!

I haven't been to Sunrise Chinese Restaurant on Mack Road since Covid, and stopped by today to…read morecheck their catering menu. This restaurant is a to-go only restaurant, and gets plenty of traffic from the area. I went midday (3:00pm) and there were at least 4 customers in and out during the time I was there. While I was checking their menu, I decided to order, since I remember how good their chicken wings are. I ordered the chicken wings, and a lunch combo with chicken with black bean sauce. The combo comes with chow mein and fried rice and an egg roll for $13.99 but I asked for steam rice instead of fried rice. Unfortunately, I didn't check my plate before leaving the restaurant because they gave me all steam rice and no chow mein. Despite the error, their chicken wings are still the best, and the chicken with black bean sauce was very good. I would've like to have tried the chow mein. Also, I didn't notice that they charged $16.99 for the plate, which was a little steep considering I got no chow mein. Some of the condiments are extra, like the hot mustard, so ask for it before they ring up your bill. I'm sure I'll be going back for the chicken wings because it's made fresh and it's really good.

It was pretty empty when I arrived at 2pm. Mongolian Beef was good with lots of veggies, but if…read moreyou're not into onions you might not like it.
