Just ate at Fred's for lunch the second time this week. I had shrimp with string beans earlier in the week and shrimp with vegetables today. Both meals with very delicious! The hot and sour soup was better than I've had at other restaurants. The main courses were served piping hot. The steamed rice had a touch of coconut flavor which made it unique. The egg roll was delicious and not oily. The orange slice added a nice touch. Rebecca, one of the servers, was very pleasant.Of the Chinese restaurants I've dined at in the area, Fred's is my favorite. I plan to return again soon.

All the stir fry dishes I have tried were good. However, the stand out and a hidden gem of this place has to be the Tiki Bar style cocktail menu. That is what bumps it from 4 (pretty good Chinese food) to 5 stars. Where else can you get a flaming bowl of tropical goodness big enough for 2? The Leilani Volcano is fruity and delicious and flaming!!! It reminded me of the now closed Tonga Room Tiki Bar in San Francisco or Trader Vic's in the Bay. I have yet to try their Mai Tai but their exotic drink menu is definitely worth a look for something unique to this area. To continue the flaming theme, try the Flaming PoPo platter to sample all their appetizers. This is a no frills Chinese restaurant with very little ambience..... so very reminiscent of many SF Chinatown places as well. The 5 stars is not for the ambience so be forewarned.

We were in Nevada City in July of 2024, we loved this little town and since we love to visit dive bars, we went to mind shaft, and were hungry, we ordered food at the Chinese Restaurant next door, Fred's. It was so very good. We came back this last weekend to the Victorian Christmas, we had to eat at Fred's twice. It's that good! Good old comfort Chinese food. Low grease, pure yum. Not fancy smancy, just good Chinese food. Will always eat here if I am in the area.

We have been eating at Fred's for over 20 years. It used to be one of our favorites but the last few times we ate there, the quality of food has declined. Ate there tonight and got two orders of sweet & sour chicken and chicken chow mein. When our food was served, the S&S was not chicken, it was pork. When we brought it to our server's attention, she insisted it was chicken. When we showed her it was definitely pork, she reluctantly took it back. We asked for 2 orders of rice, we were only brought 1 order and still charged for 2 (I don't recall rice being extra?) There were other small annoyances that on their own would be unremarkable, but the entire experience was unpleasant enough that we decided that will probably be our final meal at Fred's. Very sad.

Meh! Ate here many years ago and was not impressed. Tried it again this week and still not impressed. Generic, overcooked and relatively flavorless. Sorry but I'm just speaking my truth.

The best Chinese food I have had in a while. The generals chicken is one of a kind and the dinner combination plate is an incredible deal!

This is a classic old timey Asian restaurant in a classic old timey location. At 5:30 we had the place to ourselves and were served promptly. The service was excellent as was the food. They do a lot of take out so don't get discouraged if the lobby is jammed. We got the classic dinner for two and it was just that. The soup and spring rolls were excellent. We ate heartily but still could not finish the main plates. It was about half the price of other "sit down" dining options.
