I really like this place so far. I have ordered to-go from this place a few times. I have only ordered the Hong Kong style crispy pan noodle beef chow menu and the crab meat cheese puff wontons. Which I really enjoyed. Very friendly staff. I will be back to dine in. Thumbs up! read more

I'm pretty sure this is the best Chinese food we've ever had, and we've had a lot! Hot and sour soup was excellent, great flavor and not too spicy. Schezuan kung pao chicken was fantastic, had it with chow mein, which was also great. Wife had Shanghai chicken, but ordered it not spicy, loved it. Huge portions, had enough leftover for lunch the next day. Fast, friendly service too. Highly recommended! read more

Back at this wonderful Chinese restaurant with two friends for lunch last Thursday. It was fantastic. The sea bass that I was wanting was not on the lunch menu but the friendly, very attentive waiter was able to get it for us anyway, and my friends thought it was great too. Everything was in fact, especially the shrimp dish with shitake mushrooms and peas. The friend calamari was really good of ourse, though I prefer the rings with legs and the Mongolian beef, also great, on a hot platter. The waiter was shocked we were able to eat it all, but it was SOOOOO good, just couldn't help ourselves I guess. Don't miss the sea bass. read more

Yum! This is the BEST Chinese food I've ever tried. I'm not around the area, so I wasn't sure what to expect at all. I was pleasantly surprised at how delicious the food was! On top of that, the food uses less oil and less sodium. How can you say no to healthy Chinese food without sacrificing taste?? Plus, the service was top-notch and friendly, and the interior is clean and well-designed. To be honest, writing this review makes me sad because I'm not sure when I'll be back to eat here again! I really wish this place was a chain because maybe then they would have a location in San Diego, too! OK! So let's talk about food. The menu is pretty big, and at first, I had no idea what to order. I wished the menu had images next to the item names since that usually helps me understand what I'll be ordering. Have no fear though! I hope my review can help those out who aren't too familiar with Chinese cuisine! Here's what I recommend: CRAB RANGOON (5/5) - aka crab and cream cheese wontons! I really enjoyed the crunchiness of the golden, fried puff pastry exterior, and the creaminess of the delicious crab and cream cheese center. It tastes good on its own, but I recommend dipping the wonton in the sweet and spicy sauce that comes with the dish! It adds another complexity to the dish! There are so many layers of flavors going on in your mouth - it's really an awesome way to start your lunch/dinner with this incredible appetizer! WALNUT SHRIMP (5/5) - THE BEST!! Walnut shrimp is a dish made of crispy tempera-battered shrimp, tossed in a sweet (and slightly savory) sauce with candied walnuts. I can't even believe how large the shrimps are here, and the coating is the perfect balance of sweetness and crunchiness. One of my qualms with walnut shrimp is that it's usually 80% coating, but that is not the case with this one! Plus, the walnuts are deliciously candied! I recommend eating this dish right away. Nothing beats the steamy, sweet, and crunchy sensation of the first fresh bite! Of course, the following bites are amazing as well. CHOW MEIN and FRIED RICE (5/5) - I put these two together because I find that chow mein and fried rice are the most common dishes to order at Chinese restaurants. However, don't underestimate these basic dishes! I was so impressed with the chow mein and fried rice dishes here. They're both nicely seasoned, the rice and noodles are cooked to perfection (not too soggy or dry or WET ahem Uncle Roger reference), and all the vegetables and proteins worked well together. These two dishes are so addicting! You have no idea, I was so full by the time I was done eating, but I still couldn't stop myself from eating more and more of these two dishes. GENERAL TSO'S CHICKEN (5/5) - This was my first time trying General Tso's chicken, and oh lord, THIS IS GOOD. If you don't know, General Tso's chicken is fried chicken pieces coated with a delicious sweet, savory, and a little spicy sauce. It kind of reminds me of orange chicken but not as tangy. The chicken pieces were tender and juicy and generously large! I thought the flavors were delicious but there was a bit too much sauce for me. However, I still rate this pretty high since it actually is delicious for those who do like General Tso's chicken and want to try it! read more

The customer service and food wss absolutely outstanding. We had alot of leftovers and the prices were great too.

Super good food, we ordered potstickers, the beef chow mein, non spicy sesame chicken, mu shu pork and Taiwanese garlic spinach. The food came quickly, was so good and the staff was very nice and attentive. Will be coming back and have already referred people! read more

Local vegan here! I got the Singapore style noodles with veggies, vegetable fried rice (both with no egg), and the Malaysian spicy string beans. Super delicious and super filling. I love how you guys cooked the tofu. It's hard to find great vegan options sometimes and I came here first time on a whim. Definitely not disappointed. Thanks for dinner, guys! read more

Excellent Chinese restaurant in Folsom. It's always a pleasant experience when coming here and service has always been wonderful. And most importantly, the food has always been great. High quality ingredients, well done, tastes great. Not too salty or greasy either. I recommend this place highly either for take out or dining in with family. I will continue coming back. Their honey walnut prawns did not disappoint and are quite possibly the best I've had compared to other restaurants in the area. read more

We have been going here for so long and lately been so disappointed. Tonight was the last straw. We always talked up Folsom Palace. Thought very highly of their food. Even though it's not close, we would make the drive. But lately we have been unimpressed. I never used to get stomach aches after eating here but they must have started using msg. I had the worst stomach pains and yes must have been gluten for punishment because I continued to go here despite. Well.... The price has gone up significantly and the quality of the food down. Very inconsistent. The hot and sour soup is the only thing that is consistently good, so, hats off to them for that. But man.... It is difficult to find a good Chinese place and now this one is becoming mediocre and so expensive. Tonight we decided on Chinese even though it's Christmas. We are all sick so decided on takeout. I thought I ordered early enough (4:30p). Got a call from the restaurant 10 to 5 and they said it won't be ready until 5:20. My husband already left to pick it up but we said, all good, it's Christmas. My husband wasted time and when he arrived, the order still wasn't ready. Then at 5:40 I called the restaurant because I am upset that my husband is sitting waiting for our order that was supposed to be ready and nobody has even acknowledged him. She apologized and said we are really busy it will be 10 minutes. I told her I was disappointed but fine. Well, my husband still didn't have the food at 5:55, so I called again and she said our order got lost so the kitchen is finishing it. I am now angry. If we hadn't paid for it already and my husband hadn't waited so long, I would say forget it. I asked if the lady could com something or give a discount and she just said sorry, it will be done in a few minutes. At 6, my husband just finally got our food. I am so disappointed and if the food is subpar, will be even more so. We will not be returning to the restaurant. The prices, service and food quality are not worth the drive, time or stomach ache anymore. read more

This place completely surprised us with high quality food, a beautiful setting and interior, and great service! The items were reasonably priced, and what really stood out to us was their soup. They provide a decent portion of fried rice, and the kung pao chicken was delicious. Would highly recommend this place to anyone and it quickly became one of our favorite local Chinese restaurants read more

The potstickers wrappers were too thick and kinda chewy, but everything else was very good.

The food is great! If you're looking for legit Asian cuisine this is the place. I've been going there for years and love it. read more

4 stars for food! Our first time here. Service was just ok. We had to wait about 20 minutes for a table but it was worth the wait. Ordered right away and food came out fast. The waiter came back when we were done to box our food up. I would have liked to have had some salt but never could wave the guy down. Busy night here. Kinda of pricey. We ordered Japanese teriyaki chicken and Mongolian beef plate with an order of chicken chow mein. Our tab came to $43.00 with tip. No drinks. Water was filtered with lemon so it was fine. I really enjoyed the Japanese teriyaki chicken. Nice ginger flavor with bite sized fresh veggies. Sautéed just right! My husband liked the Mongolian beef but I didn't really care for it. I thought the meat was not of high quality. This is a really great place for Chinese food! We will be back. read more

Good Chinese food. I haven't found better in Folsom. Less greasy than other Folsom Chinese places I frequent, so I think I am switching away from my other two spots and making this my go-to, if their service is solid on return trips. Kids and adults really enjoyed the veggie potstickers, springs rolls and honey walnut shrimp. Singapore noodles were really good. Sauce on mapo tofu was good, but tofu was too soft for my taste --maybe some of their crispier tofu offerings will be better. They made some kind of mistake in preparing my to-go order, so while I was annoyed to wait around an extra 25 minutes while they made (or remade) something, I appreciated the integrity they showed in telling me they had messed up rather than sending me home with a messed up order. read more

The service was acceptable, nothing else was. And it's over-priced. 1. I've never had a beer come out in just a glass already poured. 2. The entree came out . . . first. When does that ever happen? Moo shu veggies. Super greasy and loaded with onion. 3. The soup came next. Nothing good about it. 4. After we finished those, the server came back out and apologized that the appetizer hadn't come out yet. 5. Finally the pot stickers arrived, under cooked and lacking substance. We won't be back. p.s. My fortune cookie was empty! A fitting end to a one star meal. read more

I used to hate Chinese food and then we found this place. It's the best in Folsom, we get delivery almost every week! Everyone is always so sweet too - such a nice family owned company. Some of my favs - Beijing beef, salt and pep prawns, chicken lettuce wraps with extra hot mustard, long bao dumplings, veg chow mein, lemon chicken.. the list goes on! You must try! read more

Best Chinese food in Folsom. Every dish was delicious. Always order from here and I'm never disappointed.

The absolute longest wait ever. I put an order in online and was told it would be ready in 15 minutes. Ended up waiting over an hour inside the restaurant after I was told multiple times that it was almost ready. I only had 4 items in my order. Tried to cancel my order and get my money back and they wouldn't cooperate with that. The food wasn't even worth it. Nothing but the opposite of special here. You're better off going to Panda Express. read more

My daughter and I had a delicious lunch here. The service was good and it seemed pretty clean.

DO NOT EAT HERE! DO NOT SUPPORT! THEY STEAL YOUR MONEY! AND TREAT EMPLOYEES UNFAIRLY. An employee messaged me regarding my low star review and their delivery system. Apparently, they charge an extra fee if you don't tip on your previous order. Also, an ex-employee stated that the owner take employees tips and treated certain employees unfairly. read more

This is the second time I've got food to go and it sucks! The Szechuan chicken smells and taste like they cooked it in an outhouse. It's awful . And the veggie potstickers weren't good either. read more

The best Chinese food I've ever had! Fresh, tasty, MSG free. Wish they delivered through DoorDash.

The food was phenomenal! The spring rolls and crab cheese puffs were perfectly fresh and crispy. Allen provided great and efficient service! Me and my husband found our new favourite Chinese cuisine restaurant to dine in at. read more

Have always had consistently good food here, last time I went glasses were a little dirty. Food is overall among the top in Folsom but portions are smaller for the price point. read more

Stopped into this restaurant expecting the ordinary decor and food. Well I would be wrong. This little spot is serving up delicious Chinese food. I ordered the steamed bao buns and pot stickers to start. The bao buns are a treat as you cannot find them anywhere except a dumpling house. So I was delighted! They were soft and fresh. Served with a Hoison style sauce. The potstickers were so awesome! I think they make their own dough. The sweet and sour chicken was full of peppers and pineapple! Yummmmm All this served on proper tablecloths and plated so well. I'm a sucker for the extra mile. This I believe is my new favorite! read more

Food is very good, service needs improvement. Waiters are not tending to their customers.

It had been years since we had been here and remembered why we wanted to return. Each dish was flavorful and fresh while not greasy as some Chinese restaurants are. We had Thai basil Tofu and an eggplant dish. Even their chow Leon noodles were popping with flavor. There is a subtle classiness to this strip mall restaurant from the artifacts to the perfect volume of classical music to the cloth napkins to the plates they use. The green tea was a loose tea with an earthy taste. Some might not like it. Turn off the TV, which no one was watching, and it would have made it even better. We also appreciated that the owner/ chef came out to see how everything was and that was just lunch. The waiter was attentive without being overbearing. We can't go back to try their homemade pot stickers and other entrees. Please visit and keep this local business thriving. read more

I ordered and picked up to go. I was told 15 minutes and it was ready when I arrived. I ordered lemon chicken, chicken fried rice, and chicken chow mein. All were delicious. Worth the money and extra drive for me. Thanks! read more

Update: 6/9/21 I am sorry to report on how far the food quality has dropped since my last review. The 2 stars is a gift. My neighbor & I were previously major fans of the menu, quality, & fair pricing. We have visited The Palace many times for lunch over time but we no longer consider them a place to eat. The Hunan Chicken was atrocious ... old, lots of gristle (!), not much taste. The serving size was notably reduced the plate filled in with white rice. This seems to be a trend for restaurants. They have a success story, open a 2nd restaurant & the 1st business takes a dive. We will miss the old Palace but not this one! read more

Been coming here for years with my family. Jenny and her staff have always been so courteous and accommodating of our dietary requests. The food is always so delicious!! We always order the Beijing chicken (my favorite) and Szechuan fish with some veggie chowmein. The flavors and freshness are incredible! I always look so forward to coming here for a wonderful meal! read more

ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST.... I am beyond disappointed... when perfectly exquisite family owned and run restaurants like this one used to be ... decide to "expand".... came in for the best Chinese food in the area that I know of ... to find that the service was horrible.. the food was not the beautiful homemade dishes I remembered.. and the place just felt like another quick ...in and out cheap knock off ... but the prices were still expensive... I'm SO DISAPPOINTED Jenni... wish you left this restaurant the way it was .. I won't be back read more

My daughters and I had an amazing experience here. The Mongolian Beef was quite possibly the best that I have ever had, and my daughters loved the Almond Chicken!! I plan on coming back often!! read more

Went to the Folsom Palace today with my friends. The food was extremely fresh and well prepared. The service was excellent. I had Pad Thai and my friends the Pork pepper pot and the Fried rice dish. All were full of fresh al dente and was full of good quality meat. Will definitely go back often. The tab was below $50 for all three of us and my friend took some home as well. Good value for the quality and it was on dinner menu not lunch. read more
