Pho ABC

★★★★☆ 4 (918) • $$

"January 14, 2025: I ordered Seafood Chow Mein, Duck Pho, and hot tea. The Seafood Chow Mein totally rocked--it was so hot, the seafood was tender, and fresh while Duck Pho's broth warmed my cold--the duck was so tender and juicy, the Pho jettisoned me into the ionosphere! Yup~I must scream at the top of my lungs while standing on an apple box proclaiming, "THE ENTIRE ORDER WAS THAT DELICIOUS, INDEED!!!!"Anyway . . . Like Ahnold Scwharzenegger promises, "Ahll beeee baaaaack!""

"The hostess sat us really fast. The restaurant was very well decorated. The floors were really slippery. The waitress we had, was a little rude. As soon as we sat down, she asked what we wanted. She didn't give us any time to even look at the menu. We politely asked her to come back. She never greeted us or even smiled. We saw her do this to a number of tables. The receipt said her name was Kim. We ordered Pho and Spring rolls. The food was great. My friend ordered food to-go, we had to wait an additional 35-40 minutes for that and our check. We asked the waitress for our check and asked if the to-go order was ready. We saw her grab it and noticed it was just sitting on the counter. I would've gave this place more stars, but the waitress was horrible."

"My cousins took me out to dinner for my birthday at the Olive garden!

Then served my entree which I had breast chicken with cherry tomatoes smothered on top and steamed broccoli delicioso! He was extremely kind enough to bring me an amazing pumpkin cheesecake and had the staff sing me Happy Birthday and that made my evening even more awesome!

"The venue is small, tight and straight forward. Service was nice and attentive which was the best part of this experience. Unfortunately, the fried rice was bland and not Thai hot which was not what I was expecting. Parking is limited as well."

Sushi Cafe

★★★★☆ 3.6 (523) • $$

"A local gem!FOOD: I always get the bento box with teriyaki chicken, shrimp tempura, gyoza, salad and rice. The teriyaki sauce is some of the best I have ever had. They perfectly grill the chicken. The portion sizes are large. I always finish full and happy after this meal. SERVICE: I always get take out. The staff is timely and professional. AMBIANCE: Everytime I get take out I think to myself I really should eat inside. The decor is modern and clean. Do not be fooled by the outside strip mall, this place is super cute! Overall, will I be back? Yes, this is one of my favorite places to eat in the city!"

Pho Bistro

★★★★☆ 4 (420) • $$

"Came here on a Sunday for lunch and the place was packed but we luckily, got seated right away. Service was great and the staff were really friendly! The staff were especially nice to my 4 year old daughter. The food was so flavorful and definitely felt like comfort food. The portions are generous and the pho bowls came with a lot of meat. My daughter had the chicken and rice kid's plate which was also very generous and tasty!"

Rose Palace

★★★★☆ 3.9 (412) • $$

"Ordered some take out and it was amazing. The restaurant is nice if you decide to sit and enjoy but I was entertaining guests and this time for we got delivery. We ordered the Family Dinner Option B and added a Pork Fried Rice. The food is always delicious and plentiful. I will definitely be working my way through the other dinner options but the ones we had were on point. The Mongolian Beef was especially tasty, the Mandarin Chicken was sweet and had just a perfect hint of spice, the chicken chow mien was decent and fresh. The soup was really good. Perfect for then cold rainy day we ordered it."

Pho Viet Anh

★★★★★ 4.6 (277) • $$

"This place hit the spot! The broth was solid and we even ordered the fries and they are a hit too. We came in with 25 people leaving Tahoe on Sunday morning, we were all able to get seated the waitresses were so nice to us and we got all our food promptly . It was exactly what we needed. Our coffee drinks came a little late and they said it was on the house since it took extra time. It was such a nice gesture that we weren't expecting since we were such a large group. Overall great food, amazing service and were super accommodating !!"

Pho Vung Tau Bay

★★★★☆ 4.4 (278) • $$

"We're stopping by today, lived around this neighborhood for 5 years but never visited them, in fact we thought it just opened last year, once we asked the staff, he said it's been here for 4 years!!! Wow the foods were good, pho raw beefsteak and pho chicken were delicious. We also enjoyed an egg roll , the service was great. Absolutely we will go back for more."

Pho Hot

★★★★☆ 3.7 (391) • $$

"I can't believe my 100th review is for a Door Dash order! My wife works from home and takes her lunch break at 10:30 AM, so I thought I'd surprise her with some delicious Vietnamese Pho. Most places don't open until 11:00, but I found Pho Hot in Rocklin, which opens at 10:00 AM.Right at 10:00 AM, I ordered the Hủ Tiếu Mì Hải Sản (Rice or Egg Noodle with Seafood). Amazingly, it arrived at 10:29 AM--just 30 minutes from order to door!I quickly grabbed two bowls and put together the Pho for both of us. The portions were generous and filled with fresh ingredients: a container of broth, bok choy, shrimp, squid, one scallop, jalapenos, bean sprouts, cilantro, and a packet of Sriracha and hoisin sauce (with a side of onion seasoning). The Pho was really good, though we could have done without the squid--neither of us really liked it. But everything else was very flavorful.We usually have some type of Asian Vietnamese soup--also known as Pho--once a week, but with this kind of service and efficiency from Pho Hot and Door Dash, we'll definitely be ordering again soon. If you're looking for something quick and tasty, I highly recommend Pho Hot!"

Thai Orchid

★★★★☆ 4.1 (288) • $$

"Nice dining experience in a not-as-nice area. Met some close friends here for lunch, since it was a nice in-between location. The reviews here on Yelp were decent and if they weren't it had to do with DoorDash and not specifically Thai Orchid. The gentleman handling all the things was very nice and efficient. We had the place (at open) to ourselves and eventually other patrons who had a hankering for Thai food, that rainy morning, wandered in also. My friends had their two small kids (newborn and a 10 month old) along and it worked out fine space wise. I had the spicy cashew chicken and a side of steamed rice. My friends ordered the Drunken Noodle dish with chicken and the coconut soup. No complains from anyone. Would definitely eat here again!"

Tasty Pot - Roseville

★★★★☆ 4.1 (264) • $$

"We went here over the weekend to celebrate my dad's bday! We had an outstanding experience. My family and I have come here in the past, and we just love the food and the vibe. Very suspicious so you don't feel cramped and how the food is served all prepared and cooked for you! I love this simple concept so much more than the AYCE hot pot places.. struggling to get food at the bar and having to cook it yourself! There is a reason why I want to eat out, because I don't want to cook for myself and my kiddos lol. The broth is so flavorful and they give you sooo much meats and toppings! I love how they will come around and asked if you need a refill of broth. My go to is the Taiwanese soup. My kids love the Japanese Miso Hot Soup, we order 2-3 sides of udons as well since they love udon noodles.The waiters are so kind and attentive for our large party and we left very satisfied! I highly recommend. We made reservations for a large party in advance which I highly recommend and they went beyond and set up a private room for us.Thank you Tasty Pot for an amazing experience, my dad devoured the big bowl. We will definitely be back!"

Hao Bao Dumplings

★★★★☆ 4.3 (240) • $$

"Enjoyed a bowl of a 10piece beef dumpling soup. I opted for self service ordering since the gent at the register was taking a call in order. Service was quick and I was already sipping on soup and snapping these photos in a couple of minutes. Even on a warm day, I enjoyed having the soup. Requested chopsticks but soup spoon, fork, and napkins come when the tray is served. Would have loved to have tried some garlic chili oil but could not tell if any were any available, as there were no condiments on the tables. Fair pricing, the wrapper was a little thicker than I'm used to, and the meats were all uniform in taste, size, and texture. The soup was flavorful and beautifully garnished with tasty green and white onions. Very good soup, I almost finished it all. If you like noodles, you can order some on the side, but to me, the dumpling wrapper was all the extra noodle I would want. Was able to finish the bowl, but could have easily saved half for later. Looks like they would have lids and baggies readily available for to go. Satisfying, good taste, fast, would definitely go again. Not many places still open in this part of downtown, so the good ratings here are well deserved."

Rice Express

★★★★☆ 4.1 (262) • $$

"Such a great restaurant! The owners are very attentive to your needs and always willing to help you in any way they can. We ordered the Honey Walnut Shrimp and Salt and Pepper Pork Chop which both were very delicious! I would highly recommend this place to anybody looking for a nice family restaurant in the area."

Pho King II

★★★★☆ 3.7 (317) • $

"We have new house soup call " Hủ Tiếu Nam Vang" this soup can eat dried and soup on the side"

Panera Bread

★★★☆☆ 3.1 (423) • $

"Panera is always a solid option for lunch! This particular location is a bit small and the parking lot is very crowded, but otherwise I'm always impressed by the service here. They always seem to go above and beyond! I had a coupon for half off entree so I decided to get a You Pick Two lunch and try out some new items. The cheesesteak sandwich was saucy, and I liked that I was able to switch the type of bread for no charge. I also tried their new bacon mac & cheese. It was just as good as the regular one. I always find it funny that you get a baguette on the side even when there's no soup, but I'm not complaining. The Pick Two option is always my favorite because I get to try two items and it's not a super huge portion. Had to pair it with my favorite drink here - the papaya green tea. So yummy!"

Beijing Cafe

★★★★☆ 4 (242) • $$

"Great food! Huge portions, all can be shared and you'll still have leftovers. The staff were really friendly and attentive. We were the only ones eating inside, tons of to go orders were going out though. The wor wonton soup was great! Also recommend the pot stickers and fried shrimp!"

Olive Garden Italian Restaurant

★★★★☆ 3.5 (310) • $$

"Great customer service, and the soup is always delicious. However, parking at this location is terrible."

Jen Kitchen Chinese Restaurant

★★★★☆ 4.4 (195) • $

"I decided to give this place another try, as it had been quite a while since my last visit. I was drawn back by the fact that they serve Peking pork-cho, a dish I've missed since Mayflower sadly burned down.Unfortunately, the experience was a bit disappointing. The Peking sauce had a strange flavor--I'm usually fine with a tang to the sweet sauce, but this one had an odd vinegar taste that just didn't sit right. Additionally, the chops lacked the crispy texture I was hoping for; perhaps they were too breaded before frying fried, but not in the best way.I also ordered the chicken with black bean sauce. When I got home, I enhanced it with some thick glass noodles, and the dish turned out decent. However, I did experience an almost immediate headache and puffiness, likely due to the high salt and MSG content.On the positive side, the prices are reasonable, and I've attached the most recent menu photos, as the ones in other reviews seemed outdated. The staff are very nice and friendly, and it's good to see that the dining room is now running at capacity."

Panera Bread

★★★☆☆ 3.2 (278) • $

"Panera doesn't offer the best value but they do put out quality food in a timely manner. My old stand by the Fuji Apple Chicken Salad is now $12.99 not bad but the size is about 1/3 smaller than pre covid. The coffee drinks are overly sweet but nobody can beat their cinnamon toast crunch bagel lol. Overall Panera is fine but there are better places if you're not in a hurry."

Rice & Noodles

★★★★☆ 4.1 (131) • $$

"Service was good. Hainan chicken with rice came with the ginger sauce and sweet soy sauce. The chicken was perfectly cooked and moist. Both sauces were tasty and go well with the chicken. The beef noodle soup was good. The noodles were bouncy and soup was very flavorful."

La Mision

★★★☆☆ 3.2 (184) • $$

"They great chicken soup && I order it all the time when I'm not feeling good or when I need to open my sinuses, plus I get it for others when they are sick && the chicken soup is very helpful in getting people well. I love their nachos as well ~ most of everything I love is SUPER delicious"

Sourdough & Co

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (163) • $$

"I had a ham sandwich with swiss on sourdough. You don't get a lot of ingredients, 2 triangles of Swiss, small amount of ham, little bit of lettuce. I had the 4 inch but my bread was probably 5 inches so that was nice. Service was quick, person working was nice."

West Coast Sourdough - Folsom

★★★★★ 4.6 (70)

"The customer service is terrific and sandwiches are delicious . What sets this sandwich shop apart from the rest is the bread. It is the real deal sourdough bread. Ohh it has a great chew, slight tangy taste, crisp top crust, and delightful fermented smell. So much deliciousness. They even sell individual loaves. My go to choices are the hot sandwiches. They have ruben, hot pastrami, French dip, and garlic pesto. I have had them all. To hard to choose a favorite, all so good. They also have cold sandwiches, soups, salads, cookies and chips. The clam chowder is tasty. So tasty that my LI self is willing to take a lactaid pill to enjoy the clam chowder. The Greek salad is my favorite salad there. Mmm... loaded with fresh ingredients and served with a delicious dressing. The sandwiches come in three sizes. The 4 inch is around $6.29. Not a bad price for what you get. The sandwiches come with free spreads, fixings, and a slice of cheese. They have indoor dining which is kept very clean. The decor is modern. Ambiance is pleasant. And just to echo again, the staff has always provided top notch service."

"I love this place. Their French Dip is amazing and so are their breakfast Reubens. The breakfast Reuben is smaller and hits the spot. Won't make you feel stuffed. The workers are very friendly and the service was excellent. Clean store and clean bathroom."

Big Belly Deli

★★★★★ 4.8 (54)

"Best sandwiches ever! I had the Reuben and my husband had the BLT with added avocado, cheddar cheese. We each had a half sandwich for lunch that day and the other half the next day. This is our go to for lunch when doing wine tasting in Lodi. I highly recommend ordering online as they can be very busy. Staff is always very friendly, helpful and professional"

West Coast Sourdough - Laguna Springs

★★★★☆ 3.8 (80) • $$

"Low-key dinner takeout. I got the Southwest chicken salad and my sister got clam chowder in a sourdough bread bowl. Also got a chocolate chip cookie and a lemon white chip cookie to share.Southwest chicken salad was alright. Nothing spectacular but still tasty and gets the job done. I tried some of the clam chowder and the sourdough bread bowl. Although the chowder had a nice clam flavor to it, it was a little flour-clumpy. Not great. The bread was decent; crusty on the outside, soft and spongy on the inside, but didn't have much of a tang. Still prefer the sourdough bread from Boudin. The cookies here are the soft-baked cookie type, like eating a muffin but in cookie form. The chocolate chip one tasted like what you'd expect and the lemon white chip one tasted like a lemon pound cake (didn't taste much of the white chocolate). The cookies were a bit too sweet for my liking overall.Eh, I'd say that it's not a bad place if you're in the area and are specifically craving for the kinds of food offered here."

West Coast Sourdough - Galt

★★★★☆ 4.2 (61) • $$

"This store in particular is awesome! I put in an order for 70 sandwiches in three platters and a big salad. They were able to fulfill that order less than an hour. They told me they wouldn't be able to have it ready till 12 at the earliest, but I showed up a half hour early and it was already done, and they were already working on ringing it up when I walked in the door! Then they all helped me put it in the car. I was in and out of there in like five minutes. All the staff were friendly and professional. I wish my job allowed me to leave bigger tips."
