The restaurant is big and decorated beautifully. It really adds to the whole experience. We all looked at the menu and decided we would have pot stickers, asparagus beef, honey walnut shrimp, general chicken and pork chow mien. The food came out piping hot, a couple dishes at a time, starting with the Pot Stickers. Everything was absolutely delicious and having ordered "mild" general chicken, my wife was able to enjoy it tremendously. All the staff are friendly and have a great sense of humor. My wife had some kind of coupon on her rewards card which she should've printed out before getting to the restaurant, but the waitress let her step out of the restaurant to print it up, saving us $17!! This is quickly becoming my favorite Chinese Food in a 50-mile radius.

Been 7 years since my last review and still 3 stars for me. This is upscale Chinese restaurant so…read moreit is priced accordingly. Ambience is nice and good for groups as everything is family style. Expect avg $25 per entree that will feed 3-4 depending how many you get. We ordered 4: salt and pepper chicken wings which I recommend, pork fried rice, half a duck, and beef with green beans for 2 people. There was leftovers. One less entree we probably could have finished it all. My total came to 72 no drinks and a $17 credit for being a rewards member. The rest i paid using my comps. Food was generally good but I have had better for less. Service was actually better this time and came by enough where I wasn't looking around for help. I say it's worth a try! Even with my comps, I probably only come twice a year? Highly recommend getting reservations especially on weekend nights because they are fully booked and will not take walk-ins or to go orders.

Waitress 5*****. Server 5*****. Rest of the staff 5*****. Salmon was cooked to perfection. The…read moreskin came out crispy but not Burnt. The salmon tasted great with a nice texture-pretty solid yet soft when bitten. For $54 tho, I was expecting it to come with a little side dish like steamed vegetables or rice pilaf, but it was just the salmon in the middle of a big plate. It's a good thing that we bought a side of broccolini. I can't really say much about the Filet Mignon. With a price tag of $78, it was not worth it. What made the Mother's Day experience memorable was the staff from the greeter to the person that sat us, and the waiter and server (Rachel and John I think) were all pleasant and welcoming and made us feel like they were doing their part to make our experience a memorable one. I do plan on coming back tho and try other dishes.

Yep... only 2 stars. Both on its own, and by comparison to another recent pricey steakhouse…read moreexperience. First, the appetizers. My lobster corn chowder tasted nothing like corn or chowder....just bacon flavor overpowering the taste..and it would have been nice to have actual lobster in it. The meatballs were served with a polenta "sauce.." not really a polenta. While tasty, I would think for $20, the meatballs would be served warm. Not a good start .. Then, the steaks and sides. My filet mignon was cooked perfectly....but perhaps some seasoning next time? I essentially used the gorgonzola mashed potatoes as a "sauce." Kind of "scammy" to have flavorless steaks, and then charge $10-$20 for various steak sauce and toppings. Lastly, the creamed spinach. Again, man...some seasoning would be amazing. Spinach mixed with cream....and "liquid" cream (lack of presentation?) was not worth $20. The server was good and attentive, so props to her. Why a 2? If I'm going to spend $280, it needs to taste better then someone getting yelled at by Ramsay on a Hells Kitchen episode. Would NOT recommend for a special occasion....until they get the basics right to warrant them charging that much.

This was my second time visiting and I felt compelled to leave a review. I do not post reviews very…read moreoften anymore, since my ex stalks my yelp and always ends up at the places I review but this place truly deserves the recognition. (Yes I hope he reads this lmao) Both times I have visited, the staff has been incredibly pleasant and personable. The food is absolutely chef's kiss. I love the Classico Tostada with shrimp. The chili oil adds the perfect touch. I also tried the ensalada de elote and it was delicious. It was surprisingly filling and satisfying all on its own. The cocktails are unique, which I really appreciate. I have tried several now and every one of them has been excellent. The Lincoln location is small and intimate. I have not visited the Midtown location yet, but since I live in Sacramento I will definitely make it there at some point.

The concept at Omakase Por Favor in Lincoln is really cool; the fusion of Japanese and Mexican…read morecuisines reminds me of a high-end fusion spot I've tried in Vegas. It's a very modern, small restaurant, and the bar seating is definitely the focal point of the space, though the overall vibe felt a little cold with minimal decoration. I'd love to come back to try their full omakase experience eventually, but the service was a real letdown. Even though we were the only two people in the restaurant most of the time, we felt like an inconvenience. At one point, I said out loud that we were ready to order; the staff including our waitress stopped for a second, looked at us, and then just went back to what they were doing without acknowledging us. It was as if we were on her time, and she was making it clear that she would get to us when she felt like it, not when we were ready. The wait for food was also way too long. Despite being the only ones there, I waited about 40 minutes for my ceviche mixto bowl ($22). For a raw dish that requires no actual cooking, that kind of delay in such a small space is hard to justify. We also had the broiled oysters ($15) and oyster shooters ($5), which were solid. I noticed the drink menu didn't have many sweet cocktail options, so I asked if they could make me a lemon drop instead; and they granted the request. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The food and drinks are great, but the service and kitchen speed really need to be more attentive to match the quality of the menu.

Bold flavors, expert preparation, pretty on the plate and generous portions. Bambie had the 1/2 chicken fried southern style. Crispy ouside, soft and moist inside. Side of mash potatoes, side of perfectly sauteed carrot slices. I had a cesar salad. Fresh, crisp, again a big portion. The dressing was a perfect balance of creamy, piquant and a tad peppery. The croutons were crisp and flavorful. Best Ceasar salad that I've had in years. My main dish was the pork carnitas tacos. Topped with heaping mounds of shredded cabbage. Creamy sauce on the cabbage. A side of mild-ish chipotle salsa served on the side to pour on the carnitas. The tacos were so big that they were almost too unwieldly to hold. But I persevered and gobbled them like there is no tomorrow. Satisfying. A big hungry guy will be perfectly happy after polishing off the plate. Wine selection is small but has the usual good suspects in the reasonable price range. Mostly California wines. I live 2 miles from this place. Tonight was my first visit. Oh yeah I'll be a frequent return customer. Highly recommended.

Q1227 easily became one of my favorite dining experiences in Sacramento…read more We started with the lobster bites and broccolini. The lobster bites came with a lemon wedge and their house Thousand Island sauce, and that sauce was incredible. The combination of the crispy lobster, lemon, and sauce worked perfectly together. The broccolini was also seasoned really well and paired nicely with the grilled lemon. I ordered an Old Fashioned, and it was one of the smoothest I've had. One detail I loved was that they stamped the restaurant's logo into the ice cube. Small touch, but really cool. For my main course, I ordered the Grilled Huli Huli Chicken with a crispy rice cake, pineapple, greens, and a house sauce that completely made the dish. The sweet and tangy flavor paired perfectly with the chicken. Me and my girlfriend also shared the mac and cheese, and honestly, this was one of the best mac and cheeses I've had. It was rich, creamy, well-seasoned, and the breadcrumbs on top added the perfect texture. My girlfriend ordered the braised short rib with garlic mashed potatoes and carrot purée. The short rib was so tender it practically fell apart with a fork. Everything on the plate was delicious. One thing that surprised me was the portion sizes. Everything was very filling, and we ended up taking some food home. By the time dessert came around, we were already pretty full, but there was no way we were skipping it. To finish the night, we shared the Ghirardelli triple chocolate brownie with vanilla ice cream, caramel sauce, and strawberries. It was the perfect way to end the meal. The restaurant was busy and lively, but it never felt crowded. The tables were spaced out really well, so my girlfriend and I could still enjoy our conversation and watch the basketball game. I also appreciated seeing Chef Q and his wife walking around and checking on guests throughout the night. They stopped by tables to see how everyone was enjoying their food, which was a really nice touch. I even had the chance to take a picture with Chef Q before we left, which was super cool. Between the food, service, atmosphere, and attention to detail, this is easily one of the top restaurants I've been to in Sacramento. Definitely worth a visit.

I have never seen such poor service in my life…read more Two weeks prior to tonight, my dad made a reservation for parents' 58th wedding anniversary. He paid $102(!!!) to reserve the table. Flash forward to this afternoon, they called my dad's cell phone to confirm the reservation. They never mentioned anything about the restaurant being closed for a private party or anything. My elderly parents show up for their reservation, only to be turned away by the host due to a private party! When my dad explained they had a reservation and paid for their table, the manager came over to speak to them. The manager said he would refund their reservation charge, but did NOTHING to make it right. They called and confirmed just hours before, turned them away at the door, and didn't even offer to get them a table for the next day or anything. For elderly parents with mobility issues, it's hard enough to get out of the house on a normal day, but to be turned away at the door due to mismanagement of their establishment is just embarrassing. Won't be coming back. Ever.

It's rare to find a restaurant that makes me want to visit multiple times in the same week, but Rose Park Bistro has definitely earned that distinction.
