Flavor was not good , we definitely not coming back , lady at the place was being rude to older in front of us so disappointed.

You can NEVER go wrong with Amy's! Their Peking Spareribs is my favorite and so damn good. Quality of the food is great and very inexpensive. They always give such big portions and the employees are super sweet. I will forever support Amy's Cafe! read more

The best peking pork ...i have it all the time and love it! Very close to home too. For a buck you get a bag full of furtune cookies.

Amy's is a good place to get Chinese food. A good value with combo plates starting at 4.99! A good selection of tasty food options and hot food, ready to go. Occasionally some food items look less fresh than you'd like but they are and new, cooked items come out as selections get thin. Best times to eat are when they are busy and the cooks are busy bring out freshly cooked items. The big pluses are value here for most part from the rice bowl and combo plates which are great for lunch or dinner but they do have higher prices items and options. They also have regular changes adding new things to try. I have not eaten nearly all they things they offer but overall everything I have had is good and fairly tasty. The place is clean and neat. It has little seating maybe about seating for 12 at most on the inside and more seating outside. Pluses 1. Fresh Chinese food from a local small business 2. Located in the heart of Rio Linda 3. Good value 4. Long term employees working the counter which is nice to see. 5. Generally fast service not much of a wait during busy times 6. Good hours of operation 7.Generally fairly friendly, polite and professional to customers. 8.Reasonable selection of cooked food items, average but not awesome selection. 9.Good tasting food for price. 10.Good size bag of Fortune cookies for one dollar. Minuses, no major big issues but some areas that could be improved on. 1. Occasionally servings on combo plates are inconsistent and not as filled as well as they could. They use a smaller comb plate box than many Chinese restaurants. 2. Napkins are the worst they give you one with the meal and the quality of the napkin is the worst it almost dissolves with little use. 3. You have to ask for condiments rather than they ask you of you would like hot mustard or extra soy sauce they do give you a fork, napkin and one soy sauce with each combo. 4. White rice tends to be almost cold if you go for that option and not a sticky rice. 5.Quart and pint prices seem a little high but I can be prices sensitive at times. 6. Could use a little more diversity of food options in the glass case read more

Wings so good. The fried rice has big shrimp in it but it was a little over cooked. The wing are amazing so good nice kick to them

The food here is pretty cheap but good. The ladies always have a smile when you walk in and ready to try and sell you one of their pork buns.(never had) So if you want something affordable and quick this is going to become your favorite go to stop. read more

This place is sort of like a local version of Panda Express. The food tastes like my favorite Chinese place where I live so I really like it. You get plenty of food. I got a 2 entree meal. It's $6.79 and I am very full. I would recommend if you're looking for quick good food. read more

The food is delicious . ONLY problem is the lady that works Saturday mornings . Ugly attitude . She charged me 50 cents for a side of teriyaki sauce +tax . I ordered 2 plates . And no hot sauce was given . And she got even more mad when i asked her for hot sauce . She only gave me only one, Then I asked for another one because 1 sauce per plate is only right . And she didn't hand me the sauce but she threw it and nearly fell off the counter . read more

Great food. Great price. Great family ran company. Staff alway has friendly demeaner. I also like they give back tk the community youth bu tje sponsorships. My fav is the peking ribs always just right. We also get the crab wontons another hit for our family. Keep ul the great job and food. read more

Friendly service, good prices and top quality Chinese food always fresh I love it here

This place is small, but when you walk in sometimes you'll see the lady making dumplings behind the counter. Which, let me tell ya, their wonton soup and chow mein noodles are way better than Villa Fat. I've had a few eggrolls here that tasted like the deep fryer oil should have been changed a few days earlier. But over all the price is great, and the food is made well. read more

Ok this is a hole in the wall fast food chinese joint but the best thing this place has got going on is their wings! Both the fried hot wings and the sweet ones are on point! Me and my coworkers ordered 90$ worth today (9 orders @12 wings a piece ) and we had no complaints. I suggest calling in your order so you don't have to wait. Everything there looks delicious especially the super sized egg rolls but I always stick to what I know..the wings. The staff is friendly and efficient. Definitely worth checking out if your in the area. read more

Worst Hot and Sour soup ever. Peas and Egg in hot and sour soup??? I think the only reason this place stays open is because of the location. It is Chinese knock off food. Save your time and money. read more

Amy's cafe reminds me of going out to dinner as a kid to "China moon" in downtown Sacramento. The food here is delicious and reasonably priced. You can see into the kitchen and see the cook working his magic. Our daughter works at Panda, but we drive further to get the quality cuisine at Amy's. They just added cashew chicken to the menu and it is flavorful and gorgeous. I always order the Peking spare ribs; you won't go wrong with this choice. read more

Food tasted old, cookies stale, no flavor on most dishes and the prawns were undercooked. Disappointing as they use to be good.

I like the food , it's fresh and served like food is supposed be served piping hot! They have great value meals and for the most part offer great customer service. Except when you go to pay they start either boxing or bagging and they don't give you the condiments you ask for!! They act as if they are paying an arm and a leg for the hot oil and soy sauce packets! The give you a mini cup with about a 1/2 of a teaspoon of seeds and oil! Like WTH! I just spent 55 bucks on food and I'd like to enjoy it! So please stop being stingy with the condiments! Thanks! read more

Delicious food, price is very good. Husband and I usually get 2 entrees and half chow main and half fried rice. The wonton soup won't disappoint you either! Always greeted with a smile and "hello" read more

I like this Chinese food place the best. Sometimes it's been sitting awhile but still tastes good. But the employees are very friendly and I like everything I have tried. Small and cute place. Will come back again soon read more

Good food for the price. I like the chowmein here they make it fresh and I like it better then panda for the most part. Some entrees I like here are the Teriyaki Chicken and the black bean chicken. They also have good honey walnut shrimp but u gotta special order that. read more

Food had a good flavor to it, but everything that was fried had the "breading" part of it soggy and it was falling off the meat so that was disappointing, chowmein and fried rice was good. read more

Eh. It's just that, eh. It's ok cheap Chinese food. If you have a few more bucks to spend, I suggest going someplace else.

Amy's Cafe is a long standing resterrant in the center of Rio Linda Ca. off of M St. They have good Chinese food that's made fresh hourly. I'm not big on Chinese food but I like eating here every now and again. There prices are pretty good too. read more

The Chinese food is to die for! I was so upset when they got rid of their amazing burgers and bags of fries. Their a bit pricey but cheaper than other Chinese places. There combo plates are a great deal and they always pile on until it barely closes. You definitely get your money's worth. The workers are very nice and they like to make you feel at home. I always go here for Chinese food. Their Peking Spare Ribs and Cream Cheese wontons are the best! read more

Amy's is decent little find in the heart of down town Rio Linda. The food is equivalent of Raley's or Bel-Air at about the same price but without all the driving! It's a tad on the greasy side but if you are hankering for some Chinese and don't want to drive far this is the place for you read more

I love this little local Chinese food place!! Been going here for years. Huge portions, great low prices and good food. What more can you ask for? On the combo plates, I can get at least 2 meals out of them. So grab one to share or have left overs for lunch the next day!! Yummy!!! read more

Mostly VERY tasty and cheap FAST chinese food ala Panda Express...already made. Fast and easy family friendly dinner. Sometimes better than others but always decent. Love the general chicken and eggrolls and paperwrapped chicken and pekingapare ribs. read more

They serve Chinese food and burger fare. The Chinese food at Villa Fat is better, but this is a great place if you are in a hurry and need a quick bite. I can be in and out with Chinese food in less than 10 minutes most of the time, sometimes under 5. If you want burgers/fries, it's going to be longer, but those are good as well. read more

Amy's Cafe Just got home from work tonight really tired. I didn't feel like cooking. I don't like McDonald's so I went to Amy's. Boy was I disappointed. I ordered a bacon double cheese burger meal and ordered my son som rice orange chicken and kung pao chicken. 1. The burger The bread was squashed and saggy. The tomatoe was about the size of a 50 cent Coin. The lettuce was the heal of the head. The part you normally cut off and throw away. 2. The fries Old saggy and very salty. I paid extra for large fries and received small A small portion. 3. The soda I ordered a sprite from their fountain mashine. The Soda was too sweet and flat. This alone was $11.99 WOW!!! THE CHINESE food Well I ended up throwing it away. I wouldn't let my son eat somthing that looking like it's been sitting for hours. RIO LINDA WAKE UP... THIS FOOD IS HORRIBLE AND WAY OVERPRICED!! read more

Simply put, without a doubt, the best Chinese food in the area.

Ive been a loyal customer of amys since the beginning in 2001, been hooked on the orange chicken and egg rolls. I always get the two item com o, half chow mein half fried rice orange chicken and an egg roll. Quick service, amazing fiod, read more

One of the few authentic small Chinese restaurants in the Northern Sacramento area. Hot and ready to go. Their chow mein is really good. The noodles aren't the small ones that you see at other places. Lots of choices to choose from. Am a frequent customer and the food and service is never bad. read more

I went in with low expectations and was surprised at how much i liked the food! My husband and i got 2 combo plates, 1 egg roll, and 6 piece crab and cream cheese wontons. Lemon chicken and sweet and sour pork were our entrees. It came to 14.99. not bad at all! Everything taste great and I will definetly eat there again! read more

It may be simple Chinese but I'm a huge fan of it. 5 stars from me.

We have been here twice... The first time was miserable. The second time wad amazing. The first time we came here I think it was a slow day and the food had been sitting in the case for a long time because it was basically inedible. We bought two combinations plates with two entrees each. I don't remember the entrees but 3/4 were inedible and 1 was barley pushing it. We had to wait for the honey walnut shrimp to be cooked and it was delicious. Second visit we came here because villa fat was closed. The food looked amazing in the case. I wish i would of gotten some to try. It all looked so fresh. I got wonton soup and it was so good the broth had so much Flavor and it was packed with wontons. The cheese wontons were really good but I feel like I've had them before and therefore frozen and prepackaged. Still good nonetheless. The second visit they redeemed themselves so we will be back to try again sometime. read more

Good little find in Rio Linda. Very convenient and pretty fast and fresh. Also the price is right. Its not the best Chinese food in town, but it was good enough for me to finish every bite. I had a combo plate- fried rice, chow mein, long bean chicken, and general's chicken. All for $4.99. The staff was pretty friendly and they even cut steam holes in the styrofoam box so the pot stickers didn't get soggy from the condensation. read more

This is the chinese food hood spot. Great food. Chow mein is great, big thicc noodles unlike panda express. Chicken wings are bomb. Just yummy food at a great price. Hits the spot read more

Amys is a great find. Food is way better than Raley's. Cheeper to. They do cook to order which is very good and fresh. The paper wrapped chicken is very good. Better than most and you get more chicken. The burgers are pretty damd good and not pricey at all, if you get the bacon it is thick and good. The French Fries are way to good and way to many for the price. All in all I eat their often. Ho mi doi read more

I hate Chinese american food mainly because its not authentically Chinese food. Amy's cafe is alright. It aint good and it aint bad. I hit it up when i am around the Legion if not Lou's with my bud. fried rice is somewhat dry and somewhat burnt. the kung pao and the sweet and sour poor was alright, id eat that anyday. The chao mien was kinda dry like the rice. For the price tho, it aint that better. Better than panda express imo. read more

I am a huge fan of chinese food but this is not so good. The portions are huge so that is a plus.....but I really did not care for the food.
