Jen Kitchen Chinese Cuisine is a hole in the wall spot to check out. We tried the Sweet and Sour Chicken and the Honey Garlic Short Ribs, and both were absolutely amazing! The sweet and sour chicken was perfectly crispy with a tangy, flavorful sauce, while the honey garlic short ribs were tender, juicy, and packed with sweet and savory, my favorite choice here. We also ordered the Pork Fried Rice and Chicken Chow Mein.... both good!The food was hot, fresh, and packed full of flavor. Highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area. I'll be checking it out again.

As someone always on the lookout for authentic Chinese food, I recently started exploring more spots around Sacramento and came across Jen's Kitchen. With a 4+ star reviews, I had to give it a try. Stopped by for lunch and ordered the General Chicken with chow mein and Mongolian Beef with chow mein.While we waited, I noticed the steady flow of pick-up orders, which slowed down our service a bit, but once the food arrived, and that first taste....The flavors were exactly what I've been searching for! Both dishes were delicious, and I'd say Jen's Kitchen might just become one of my favorite places for Chinese food in the area. The young lady who was helping us and running the lunch time was friendly and pleasant. She smiled as I complimented her on the taste of our lunch. Looking forward to trying more from their menu!

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side, the prices are reasonable, and I've attached the most recent menu photos, as the ones in other reviews seemed outdated.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.

Our favorite Chinese restaurant! We always order takeout, which is prepared promptly. My favorites are the General Chicken (I want some NOW as I'm writing this) and the garlic eggplant. Add some fried rice and I'm great to go.

If anyone remembers the Hong Kong Café on the corner of Broadway and fifth Street, that's what this place kind of reminds me of; old-school Chinese Food that is difficult to find in Sacramento any more. I grew up in Sacramento and remember going to Lu Shuan Buffet on J and 3rd Street and also miss Luau Gardens!I took a gamble a couple of weeks ago and based on Yelp reviews, I decided to hike across town to try this place out.I was immediately greeted by some millennials, which doesn't happen at all in the food industry. I was actually shocked that they made eye contact and were pleasant. Where do you find that at today in the food industry?My friend and I ordered pan fried potstickers (we also had the option of ordering steamed, but did not), the brandy fried chicken, which was served like chicken tenders so that you don't have to fight with the stupid bone of a chicken, house egg foo yung, and house chow fun. Everything was fast, fresh, and excellent. We did not have to ask the wait staff for a thing! They continually came to our table to ask if we needed anything and how things were and promptly filled our water glasses without even being asked to do so!I asked how long they had been in that location because I recall seeing that restaurant many many years ago. I was told that they took over ownership during the pandemic. I also asked one of the employees how many cooks they had in the back and I was told that they were two. I asked if I could adopt them so I can take them home to my kitchen, but I got a weird look; I would've never taken them home, of course, but Chinese Food is my favorite kind of food and to have, those flavors cooked every day for me would be amazing!As of today, I made my third visit there within the last week and a half. They are reasonably priced and the portions are decent. You get what you pay for here and that isn't so bad today! We opted to eat inside during all three occasions in which we visited. No one else was in the restaurant, except myself and my lunch partner. You've got nothing to lose. It's worth a try.

Food is very good for the price and is fresh to order. Excellent service as my friend and I originally was going to eat in but we needed to leave and had everything to go. They were so accommodating to split and bag everything for us even though it's not a normal process. Food is very tasty.
