Went to Macau today take out the food was excellent. We have been there in the past several times staff was nice helpful and we were served in a timely manner. The food is I believe more traditional. Which is good this is a popular restaurant and i enjoy it

We have enjoyed Macau Cafe. We have dined in and ordered to p/up. The people are very kind and humble and we enjoy the food, which is always generous. We will be back.

It has been a few years since my last review. Lots of changes happened Sacramento area but the Macau Cafe's food quality is still one of the best in Sac. It is run by the same family when I first visited it more than a decade ago. Like I mentioned in my last review, Macau cafe is a hole in the wall Mom & Pop family style restaurant with authentic Chinese-Cantonese style cuisine. They are small & clean with many popular Cantonese style dishes. I will have to say, Macau Cafe have the BEST shrimp dumping and lamb stew hot pot in Sacramento area. I would also highly recommend their pan fried pork chops and shrimp satay rice noodle which something my parents order every time we visit there. They temporary changed their menu with limited options after the pandemic, but now they are back to their original full menu with all the goodies I love. I highly recommend Macau to anyone who enjoys authentic Cantonese style food in a small family run style restaurant. Their food quality never drop below my expectation.

Again, I was with friends who wanted to get cold sandwiches from the market deli next door while I was drawn to the hot food of Macao Cafe. This time, I decided to order the lamb brisket served over fat noodles! Listed for $15.99 according to the signage on the side of the front counter, it was a few bucks more than the daily lunch specials, but lamb brisket sounded sooo good. They quickly cooked and packed my food to go, complete with mini chopsticks (which I preferred over the little plastic fork). My friends and I went to find a nice picnic table near Fairytale town in nearby Land Park, so we could sit and enjoy the beautiful sunny & warm late February day. I was happy with the size of the food portion. It looked and smelled delicious! (I was so hungry that I didn't even pause to take a photo of the dish). The chunks of lamb were tender and delicious. Caution to those who aren't used to having bone fragments in stewed meats in old school Cantonese restaurants: you have to be "bone aware". (There's an indicator of authentic cuisine for ya! They crack the bones when cooking so the flavor from the marrow comes out.). The noodles were thick and chewy-delicious, and boy, they include a lot of big ginger slices in there!

I came here over 10 years ago and the service and food has remain consistent. Today I ordered a special fried rice with Chinese sausage and mustard greens, deep fried Intestine, salt and pepper pork, and Hong Kong Milk Tea. Everything tasted good, the Salt & Pepper Pork was really salty, besides that, everything tasted great. I really like the fried rice and milk tea. If your looking for a traditional Cantonese cafe, this is the place, come check this place out!

Went to Sprouts to get sandwich then came here to get something to go to eat at Land Park. Jasely explained some of her favorite dishes from the menu. I wanted try something different, spaghetti. I recall being at an Asian place and they had spaghetti on menu so lets get this dish out of my brain. Spaghetti Meat Sauce It was good, not much meat a little on the sweet side. More meat and more spicy would make this better for me. It was ordered to go, but came on a plate. I asked if we can eat the Sprouts sandwich there and Jasely said it was ok. The restaurant is dated but very clean. Customer service is excellent and sincere. I will return to try something more traditional.

I almost forgot about this place until a fellow Yelper posted some pictures. I haven't been here for at least 5+ years! While the restaurant is simple and decor is very dated,  Macau café delivers where it matters - authentic cantonese food and still reasonably priced even with inflation. The X.O. chicken stir fried ramen noodles was the best I had in Sacramento. It wasn't greasy. The ingredients are well combined and nicely seasoned leaving you wanting more. The rest of the dishes we ordered were great! I have to keep this place in my rotations. The service is a bit slow with no follow up, but I feel like that's expected at authentic Asian restaurants in general.
