    Broccoli Beef lunch special with soup, steam rice, and egg roll.
    Tracy W.

    Had the lunch special. Reasonable price, generous portion, good Chinese food. Would come back in the area.

    Like always, great service and great food. I like there new location, which is bigger. This place gets busy but yet, they get you seated pretty quick.

    The best in Sac area

    A solid 3. Nothing too unique about this place, but the standard lunch specials are always a good deal. It is good that, even though this is their new location, they have not changed their recipes. While the food is fairly typical, the hot and sour soup is some of the best in Sacramento. My little sister and I would always get the hot and sour soup when sick...or raining...or days ending in "y." Good news!!! The recipe is the same. Still delicious soup. Overall, nothing too extraordinary, but a good, reliable Chinese food lunch meal. Definitely be sure to order yourself some hot and sour soup

    I did not love this place. We've been looking for a new Chinese restaurant buy the house and unfortunately this one disappointed. The first issue was that it was way too hot in the restaurant, it actually felt warmer inside that it was outside. We did not care for the food at all. The Mongolian beef was cooked fresh, just bland. The rice has a very odd taste to it. I have to say that the restaurant was busy, so maybe we were just the odd balls out.

    New location!

    My parents would take us to the Silver Dragon since we were little kids, and we grew up loving their sizzling rice soup, sesame chicken, mushu, and fried rice. We visited so often that the restaurant family all recognized us as we grew up. Tonight I went to pick up takeout for my family during a visit home to see my mom, who is terminally ill. :( We're trying to give her all her favorite meals in her last months. The owner remembered me and said I looked just like my mom. When I shared the sad news about her, he looked heartbroken and told me of his own stories of family loss in the past year, sharing his sincere personal advice. It was heartwarming. Our family got to enjoy the food together at home in the backyard, all grateful that the recipes and quality have stayed the same all these years. Hopefully they will be around for the next few decades!

    Lunch special. Comes with a hot pot of tea and a soup my plate was beautiful, delicious and very filling . GREAT portions for the price . I love it here. Beautiful environment to eat as well very modern and classy.

    The fabulous and hearty wor wonton soup... just the thing for a winter's day. The sizes are VERY generous.

    Happy times are here again! Our first visit to Silver Dragon Chinese restaurant since their reopening in their brand new, gorgeous location at Fair Oaks and Madison. The food is hot, delicious and just like we remember it. Equally special is the fact that the same friendly staff is back too! Great news all around... we'll be back regularly... takeout is excellent too!

Our waiterS were attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable in their menu options. One of them was super friendly -- maybe even a bit cheeky! -- and he made us feel at home. Second, the ambiance was dinner date night worthy so long as you don't mind a few TVs. They didn't bother us nor was the volume obnoxiously loud. The bar area is fun and modern-looking. Third, ohmygoodness! The food was sooo delicious! The Cantonese-style Seabass paired quite lovely with Shrimp Fried Rice and Combination Veggies!!! The seabass was topped with sliced ginger and onions. It was super tasty!It reminded me of home cooked meals growing up. The shrimp in the fried rice was tender and lighted dusty with some type of flour that made it perfectly crisp. And the combination veggies was perfectly cooked and served in a light sauce! Thing is, I'm not a huge fan of "Asian Fusion" but this place seemed to hit all the boxes for us. Go give Folsom Palace a try! p.s. Each dish was beautifully presented and smelled amazing as they walked up... that I totally forgot to take pictures (lol).

    Here's a natural English version of your review:…read more Overall, I really enjoyed the dish. The noodles were flavorful and well-seasoned, the shrimp were cooked perfectly, and the vegetables were fresh. Everything tasted great together. However, for $20, I expected a little more. There were only 4 shrimp in the box, which feels like too little for the price. If they had included at least 6-8 shrimp, it would have been much better. The food is delicious, but the value for the money could definitely be improved.

I ended up ordering 2 of the same bowls because it was a limited time only kind of bowl which was a Chili Garlic Ramen noodle bowl. One bowl I ordered Grilled Chicken for the protein and the other bowl I ordered Seasoned Tofu. Side note, the 2 for $12 deal didn't include the proteins since that costs extra so the deal was only if I didn't add any protein to my bowls. Since I ordered from the app, I was able to go in and grab my order then drive back home. My food was still hot by the time I got home even after driving in the cold and pouring rain. When I got home and started eating my bowl which had the seasoned tofu protein, I noticed that they didn't put much of it compared to my husband's bowl that had the grilled chicken protein. On top of that, the noodles were extra oily and greasy and too salty for my liking. I had to drink something sweet after to get rid of all the saltiness. I understand that noodle bowls are typically oily and salty but I just felt like it was too much for my tasting with this bowl. I mostly wished I had more of the seasoned tofu protein though. I guess if I were to order here again next time, I would probably get a bowl with the grilled chicken protein rather than the seasoned tofu protein since it seemed like they add more protein if you opt for the grilled chicken.

One dude in our group has housing issues and has rare or nearly no access to water, including drinking water. He filled up all his containers of water and we had to ask for like 1,000 refills of their water containers. He also ate the "extra dishes" / seasoning dishes like a buffet. Once he found out this was free and the staff was refilling his water / giving full water containers, he went to town. Anyway, you know there's a lot of homeless in Sacramento. The staff could have said stuff under their breath (is that the expression?) They could have asked us to leave. They could have charged us for the extras. They could have made us wait forever to get more water etc. No. The staff didn't do that. They treated our sort of homeless friend that came in to collect water and try to eat food to keep him alive for the next year - they treated him like family. I was so tired I forgot and didn't ask any names of the staff. But I just wanted to give 5 stars and thank this restaurant that they were patient and kind to "whatever you call" my dude friend and what he did. Not sure how he got connected to the two ladies I treated to dinner. But it's like having to also invite "that brother" when you invite a family out. Yeah, he had to tag along. I'm sure all their 5 stars make it clear their food is great and all that. They work hard and fast. But this review is also to point out they treated near-homeless-dude that has water access issues so kindly.
