    The best restaurant in old Sac is California Fat's. Despite the funky name (it is owned by an established Sacramento Chinese Family)it offers awesome cuisine in a lovely relaxing atmosphere.
    There is a two story waterfall in the back of the restaurant and the full sized palm trees lend to a very pacific-rim kind of feeling. If you're sitting in one of the banquets, you feel as if you could toss open the shutters and look down into the water of the Sacramento river.

    Walnut Prawns. Cuisine is Asian Fusion.

  • Directions: Front St. Old Sacramento (make sure to go to California Fat's and not Fat City, they are the same owners, obviously, and right next to one another but CF's is far better.)

    Fats's: Family Tradition

  • This restaurant started in downtown Sacramento in 1939, with Frank Fat's, and has the distinction of being the oldest continuously, family run restaurant in the city. I had the opportunity to visit two of their locations. While I wasn't so impressed by the food, the atmosphere made up.
    The first location I visited was Fat's China Bistro. The bar is fabulous, with the bottles sitting on glass shelves and a direct view into the busy kitchen.
    The second location I visited was the original Frank Fat's in the city. The restaurant went through an expensive remodel and now boasts fine antique art surrounded by clean futuristic lines. The staff at this location were all dressed in tuxedos and served our table with extreme professionalism.

    At the China Bistro I enjoyed their Duck Spring Rolls and a glass of 1999 Mondavi Pinot Noir. Good flavor, with a great view of the kitchen.
    At Frank Fat's I had the Appetizer plate and Imperial Luncheon which included Mongolian Beef, Hunan Chicken, Chow Mein and Young Shew Fried Rice. We also shared a bottle of Toasted Head Chardonnay. All the items were prepared expertly and had great flavor and texture. The best part of the meal was trying their specialty hot sauces with the diferent appetizer items.
