For a mid-tier Chinese place, this spot is solid!…read more Food came out in about ten minutes! The place was inundated by take-out phone calls, so it must be a popular spot for pick-up orders. The veggies are perfectly steamed with a nice crunch! Would order the chicken and broccoli again. A little spendy for the overall quality. The egg flower soup had a lot of tofu, so it tasted less like egg flower soup and more like tofu soup... Not something Im used to, so it wasn't my favorite.

So incredibly disappointed after 10+ years as a faithful customer. Their General Chicken has always…read morebeen top notch, with the perfect crunch and flavor! But yesterday, everything was different. The crunch was gone, and what batter there was had no flavor or crunchy texture. Half the chicken had no batter at all. The sauce was sour, and the spicy kick I loved was gone. The dark brown coloring with that lovely hint of caramel was replaced with a rusty reddish orange sauce. I ordered takeout, and I decided to eat a portion in my car before driving home. I tried, I really did. After a few bites, I closed the container and drove home, and immediately tossed it into the trash. I understand that many restaurants are trying to hang on in this economy. Maybe Lincoln Chinese tried some less expensive ingredients instead of raising prices. I'm here to say, I'd happily pay more for the version that has been my signature order for many years. No other restaurant could top your former General Chicken. PLEASE bring it back! So disappointed.

Umami Ramen is my favorite ramen in the Sacramento area, they have their original location in…read moreFolsom as well as this Lincoln location. Whenever I'm near either location I make a point to stop by to enjoy a meal or pick up take out to enjoy at home. While a fresh bowl of ramen in the restaurant is always the best experience, their take-out options are packed well and reheat nicely. I'll often warm up ramen the day after I pick it up and it's such a nice treat to have at home. The Lincoln location has plenty of parking and once you're inside you head up to the kiosks to order for dine in or carry out. Definitely take a look through the menu, they have a variety of ramen options, including soupless ramen, rice bowls, and appetizers. They also have a variety of drinks, and I noticed on my recent visit that this Lincoln location has alcoholic options. My favorite order is their spicy tonkatsu ramen- the broth is so rich, there's a perfect amount of spice, and it hits every mark for me. Honestly, I didn't truly appreciate good ramen until I tried Umami Ramen and now this is the standard that I judge all other ramens by. We also typically order their karaage chicken and I pick up and onigiri or two (the tuna is my favorite). Everything on the menu is great though and I'd recommend trying anything that sounds yummy at the moment. There is plenty of seating and I love that the restaurant is decorated with plenty of fun posters, art, and even figurines to look at. They also have a shopping area for Japanese snacks, toys, drinks, desserts and a claw machine. A pro tip is to check out their specials- when I visited they had a $25 special for a small appetizer, ramen, and drink. It was a great deal! They also have the option to adjust your ramen by leaving off certain items or ordering extras- I usually get extra bamboo shoots for $2 (it's a generous portion of them) and their eggs are AMAZING- if you're a fan it's definitely worth ordering an extra. The staff here is also so kind, if you're having trouble deciding they're happy to help and can ring you up if your prefer ordering with them. They also always make sure I have water when I dine in and pack my to-go orders with such care. I highly recommend both of Umami Ramen's locations and hope they open a third closer to me so I can go all the time. For now, I'm happy to travel though!

It's 95 degrees outside and apparently my brain says, "You know what sounds good? Hot soup."…read more So when the ramen craving hit, we headed to Umami Ramen, my favorite ramen spot in Northern California. The broth here is rich, bold, and packed with flavor...some might find it intense, but for me it's a total chef's kiss. You can choose thick or thin noodles, and I always go for the thick ones because I love that extra bounce. I ordered the Black Garlic Ramen because garlic is one of my love languages. My husband went for the Spicy Tonkotsu and was sweating bullets by the end of the meal, but he still cleaned his bowl! The chashu pork was a little dry on this visit, but the broth, noodles, and all the toppings still made for a delicious and satisfying meal. Bonus: They're currently offering FREE gyoza with every ramen order! If you're looking for a hearty, flavorful bowl of ramen, check them out. Just don't question my decision to eat hot soup during a heat wave.

Hubs and I got the tantan ramen - great spice with egg, pork, green onion and I think bean sprouts and to start we had two pork belly chashu buns that had arugula and a teriyaki type sauce on it, yum!!

Tried Fukumi Ramen since we were in the area and it was perfect for a cold rainy day. We were…read moreseated by a welcoming host and opted for the bar seating. Automatically taking in the ambience of the restaurant, it felt really clean and has a nice dim light that makes the dining experience feel private. The service was very attentive and they'll do a temperature check on how the food is with you after you receive your meal and they were all genuinely very friendly. 10/10 for the service, no doubt. For food, we ordered their "Fukumi Ramen" and their chicken karaage . Chicken karaage came out first and was freshly fried. The coating was amazingly light and the chicken itself was flavorful. It comes served with a lemon wedge and tiny pieces of salad and the dressing in the salad was delicious! For the Fukumi Ramen bowl itself, the initial taste of the broth was flavorful and the black garlic oil was a nice touch. You'll immediately notice how thickkkk their chasu slices are and I think the free order of extra noodles is a nice plus. However, the thin noodles served with the Fukumi Ramen bowl seemed like a lighter color than I normally see at ramen places and the noodles were overcooked so I feel like it obscured the overall taste of the ramen itself since ramen noodles make up so much of the bite. Even though the extra noodles were free and a nice complimentary addition, I feel like I could tell why because the ramen noodles lacked the quality the rest of the bowl had. The tamago egg was decent and I was surprised because it looked like a plain white boiled egg rather than the traditional brown seasoned egg you get in ramen. Overall, I think Fukumi Ramen can do the job of satisfying a cold rainy day, and I think with their wide variety of ramen options, you'll definitely have to try and find one that might hit for you! Portions are huge here too so it might take a couple visits to try more options!

Great service plus great food = happy bellies and money well spent. As for the food, I could cry because their sweet and sour pork is cooked to perfection with its light and crispy bite! It's my favorite dish! We have also enjoyed their won ton soup, fried won ton, chicken and green beans, salt and pepper fish, beef chow fun, and general's chicken so far. I look forward to trying their salt and pepper pork on our next visit. I enjoy the beautiful and colorful decorations all around too. It was neat to see the chef's photos on the wall including one with the one and only Chef Martin Yan from Yan Can Cook. Thank you Joy House for your hospitality and for always satisfying our cravings with your delicious food!

We visited during Lunar New Year, and despite the crowds, the food came out hot and consistent.

Urban Rolls is such a great find! I had been searching for a place that serves steamed rice buns…read moreever since trying some amazing ones at the Anaheim Packing House, and Urban Rolls absolutely delivered. The pork bao buns are incredibly delicious, soft, fluffy, and packed with flavor. Honestly, they're just as good as the ones I had in Anaheim, if not better. Beyond the bao, their sandwiches are also fantastic and definitely worth trying. The restaurant itself has a very clean and welcoming atmosphere, and the pricing is really reasonable for the quality of food you get. I'm so glad we found this spot and will definitely be coming back often! Highly recommend giving Urban Rolls a try if you love great bao buns and tasty sandwiches.

Food quality and my satisfaction were much lower than in the past. The real clincher was the spring rolls. In the past they were big and loaded with goodness.

Flavor was blah. Place might have just lost me as a loyal customer.
