This was my first time eating there and we had lunch.  Mostly single dishes, but the food was good.  I would have liked to have the Honey walnut shrimp and Chow mein, but it would have been 2 separate orders.  Half plates for lunch to combine would have been great.  If they had it, it wasn't offered on the menu I had.

I had really high expectations going in with the Bib Gourmand and high Google reviews. Everything tasted fine; good, even…  but just not what I expected. The food, to me, tasted a little too Americanized.

The banana cream pie, though, was really good. I’d come back just for the pie.

I love the 80s neon lights vibe in here. Food was good, we had the 85th anniversary 6 course special. Spring rolls, pot stickers, steak, honey walnut prawns, chicken& vegetables, and fried rice. Banana cream pie for dessert. It's busy, reservations are recommended. We came here on a whim and ate at the bar.

Meh. Been waiting a while for a good night to come to this place. Parking is the first bummer, the valet messed with the drivers seat settings and left the window down while we ate and told my lady to go inside while the man pays, which got me fired up, nobody tells my lady what to do, she’s a kind, grown woman and deserves to be spoken to respectfully. Then upon entry the vibe is just terrible, but we were famished so we decided to move forward and eat. The paint on the walls is not old and quaint, it’s like being in someone’s weird sex dungeon in the 80’s. The carpet is disgusting and it feels like you are in a casino on a cruise ship. The staff is really nice but they all look like they should have retired 10 years ago. Not one Asian person to be found which should have been my first red flag, and I am including the customers inside the restaurant. The place was packed so we assumed the food must be THAT good. It wasn’t. We ordered 4 or 5 plates thinking we’d take home leftovers. Half the stuff was cold when it arrived. Not one thing had any sauce on it. Let me be clear: tossed in sauces, but not one bite had an extra drop so be prepared for dry rice and dry meat. The drinks are on the high priced side, they were mediocre and the garnishes were pretty boring. Nobody wants those gross neon red fake maraschino cherries. A real maraschino cherry is deep purple like a luxardo. I would recommend finding another spot like Yang Kee in Davis if you want a real culinary experience. You can watch their staff cook from your table and it’s clean.

I gave an extra star for the bathroom which had stalls that go floor to ceiling. Classiest part of the entire experience.

If you choose to eat here I recommend getting a table, the bar has this oversized brass tubing along the edge and it keeps you 12 inches from your plate…but it’s round so you can’t set anything on it and it was sticky when we were sat. The host should be doing a final look over of the cleanliness when seating.
Edit: I forgot to mention when I asked about the sticky bar I was handed a wet towel by the bartender to clean the last customers mess myself. I still left a 20% tip but it’s very unlikely we will be back or mention this place to friends.

Famous old Chinese restaurant in Sac.
Lots of politicians and lawyers visited there, as I heard. Chinese food is regarded as a cheap, not-fancy one in the US but Frank Fat's is something different. Not only has typical american chinese such as orange chicken, honey walnut shrimp but also has their own signature dishes such as Frank Fat style fried chicken etc. Banana pie is quite popular too.
