My top five daily go to Asian – Chinese restaurant, foods are always authentic and clean. Food quality is always meeting expectations. However interior renovations and exterior parking lot may need some upgrades or at least repaint exterior and parking lot for a nicer dinning experience or attract higher end clients.Highly recommends roasted pigeons.

I don’t like to post any bad reviews but I was really just like what the heck, it’s not a new dining room and that’s fine but everything surrounding me was dirty, tables, walls and windows, I really couldn’t even eat my food I was kind of questioning everything, even the yellow lunch menu was sticky there was lipstick on the little white cup. It’s my first time here and unfortunately I don’t think I will be back.

Food is okay at best. Asparagus Shrimp being the best item. The staff are the rudest people I have ever encountered. I went in with my Chinese friend and he overheard the staff making racist comments about others and suggested never going there again. So I haven’t.

Staff was friendly. She greeted me at the door while setting up for lunch. Spacious and clean restaurant. Quick service, I told her I was on meal break for work, she offered lunch menu. Delicious hot meal. Great size portion for one person. There is a Large live tank with fresh options. I will be back to try some of those Large Shrimps.

Please read this review.
It was exactly what I was expecting when I showed up based on the pictures and previous reviews.
First of all, it’s not a cute little restaurant. Had an interesting smell and ok atmosphere. It seems like it’s more of an authentic restaurant based on the client base. I would’ve given them a 3 1/2 star but let me explain.
Pros
Super low prices. Paid $10 for a broccoli beef lunch special and 2.50 for a can of soda.
Large portions
Free tea
Service was quick and the waitress was nice.
Cons
A bit of a smell.
Very old decorative design.
My particular dish was bland.
Meat a bit chewy. But to be honest that was expected with the price. maybe some of there other meals are delicious so there’s no way no know for sure unless I try them.
Table Was sticky.
Soy sauce bottle was a sticky too.
They should try to fix this.
So I would say that 3 star is merited.
If the location was a little clean looking, a little more modern, maybe just a little more presentable. I would’ve given them a sold 4 star for the price and ok food alone. But na.

Update: seems the service and the surroundings have gone down since covid which is unfortunate and prices have gone up.
We’ve been here about 3 times now and so far it’s been pretty good since it became New Lai Wah. We’ve ordered chicken stir fry, seafood hot pots, chow mein, fried rice, yee noodles, crispy noodles, steamed live fish, stir fried Chinese veggies, etc, and all of it has been pretty good. Service isn’t anything to write home (or rave) about here, but it’s nothing unexpected or out of the ordinary as far as Chinese restaurants go. I just help myself to their shelf where you can self-serve and grab plastic soup spoons for your little ones, bowls if only plates were provided on the tables, and extra dishes or cups as your need arises. No need to bother the staff that may be too busy or might not be attentive (at all), so no need to get all huffy and puffy about the service or lack thereof. Actually, they’re average nice far as Chinese restaurants go. The food is consistent and tasty and that’s the main goal. 3 solid stars, 3.5 in my mind but rounded down BC the 0.5 star for being conveniently located to us is just coincidence.

This place is nothing fancy, but food is always great! We came here to eat family dinner (4); ordered seafood tofu soup, crispy pork, honey walnut shrimp, sauteed pea leaf w/ minced garlic, salt and pepper pork ribs, clams w/ black bean sauce, eggplant seabass claypot, house special chowmein, and rib-eye stirfy w/ mushrooms. Total came out to about $150 before tip which I thought was very reasonable especially as the portions were generous, imo. We ordered way too much food, but we were celebrating so why not .

New Lai Wah is my favorite Chinese restaurant in Sacramento. They might not have the best looking dining room. But they’re the best taste delicious Chinese restaurant in Sacramento. The service is excellent every time when I dine in. Very friendly even when I come to pick up the to-go order. The food is the best in town. My favorite dish here is the spicy chili chicken. It is better than any other restaurant in Sacramento.

Dont judge the book of this place it’s great for late night spot. I mean your craving Asian food and most places might do been closed except this so hey that’s a plus.

We usually come here because we like the traditional Chinese set dinner which our favorite one is the 68 family dinner which comes with steam fish, lobster, spinach and seafood, ribs, clams, and soup and appetizer. Which feeds 4 to 6 people easily.
.
The interior is kind of dirty and nothing special but usually spots like this are always serve great food. Not always but I say 80 percent true.
.
Umm bathrooms are disgusting period.
.
Other than we come here to celebrate on a budget with great deal of cheap traditional dinner sets, we dont really come here for lunch, other than dinner or late dinner.
.
Great parking lots so dont have to worry about parking, which is a plus.
.
Thanks for reading and where do you like to go for late night eats?

Food was good. Not too crowded. Lobsters are hugh and cost is $28 for one. They have fresh crab also. I had beef and snow peas and pot stickers. All good. Staff is nice. They serve hot tea which i enjoy.
