    We believe the quality of food was not like before, something was off. Portions were great, but taste was different. Still delicious.

    I had my usual Sweet and Sour Chicken and my husband had a beef dish. It’s our favorite Chinese place. We always have leftovers that just get better! It’s unfortunate that it’s gotten very expensive but still worth it.

    I have always loved dining at Red Lantern. Our favorite server is.Ms. Yim. All of the staff at Red Lantern are very sweet to us. Also especially May and Angela. Journalyn it’s a very gracious and thoughtful staff member. She is very polite and very professional.! We enjoy many entrées at Red Lantern especially the yung chow fried rice , raised tofu with vegetables, honey, walnut shrimp, Chinese style green beans. It’s very unfortunate that Red Lantern chefs do not make the Hong Kong style crispy noodles with toppings anymore. We understand from the staff that the chefs do not want to do it, but I think that’s a big disservice to Chinese cuisine and to Red Lantern because it is something that is a standard staple and we should be able to order it.. this is why when I want to have the Chinese Hong Kong style crispy noodle noodles I go to Yue Huang in Natomas. If you are seriously looking at my survey, I would urge Red Lantern to bring back the Hong Kong style crispy noodles .
