Restaurants in Carmichael

“Great food and stellar service absolutely love this place.”

“The restaurant had a relaxing and upbeat atmosphere. The food was flavorful with good portion sizes. And our waitress - whose name I unfortunately did not catch - was thoughtful, friendly, and hospitable; which is rare these days. The Napoleon with Armenian coffee was the perfect way to end the evening.”

“The food was simply sensational, exceeding our expectations with every bite. The sushi was exquisitely prepared, featuring fresh, high-quality ingredients that delighted my taste buds. What truly set this place apart was the warm and inviting atmosphere, where the staff treated us like a cherished guests. From their friendly greetings to their attentive service, we felt a genuine sense of belonging. This combination of exceptional cuisine and heartfelt hospitality made our experience truly memorable. I wholeheartedly recommend Silver Sake to anyone seeking an unforgettable dining experience where the food is extraordinary and the feeling of being part of a family is unparalleled.”

“New restaurant. Family owned. Excellent owner. Must go to as soon as it opens. Authentic Jamaican family food.”

“I wish I could give 10 stars for atmosphere, service, and food. Chef Cam’s delivery and expertise of his craft was unmatched — who knew such a gem exists right here off Madison Ave.

Oh, and ask if they have Truffle! Sourced wild and locally from The King’s Bolete.”

“Party room was a nice size for large gatherings”

“We love the Milagro Centre, we are going to bring our group in for a fun-filled Wednesday Live Music Night! We have documented this on our Instagram Sacramento Culture page. There is so much good food to eat here you will gain weight for sure lol 🤣 You have to start hanging out here! We highly recommend you do! #SacramentoCulture #SacramentoFoodTours #sacramentofoodie”

“Ordered the 13 pieces chef choice Sashimi…. Impressed and satisfied ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Customer service was awesome!”

“Steve is a great bartender. Always pleasant and attentive. Our wait person Brenda was wonderful. The food is always delicious and spot on. I highly recommend the food there. Enjoy.”

“Excellent food, great service! I have been here several times and have not been disappointed! The complimentary little bowl of mangos with Tajin sprinkled over it, the fresh, authentic & delicious food (love the Chile en Nogada🤩❤️) and the Tamarind Margaritas are all delicious!”

“Nice casual neighborhood cafe. Located next to Bella Bru on Fair Oaks blvd. in Carmichael. The outdoor patio is a great spot to grab lunch. Good food, good service & reasonable prices.”

“Awesome authentic organic gelato!! I had a really hard time choosing which flavors to choose as all of the many I tasted were just as good as the prior flavor. We met the owner Gabriel; he was very kind and generous. We are visiting from Florida. As I was enjoying my gelato, all I kept thinking is that just like our vacation, I did not want this to end. Keep up the great work Gabriel!”

“Very disappointed - although lamb shank was falling off the bone- the oily bland brown gravy was not helped by more salt and few uncooked mushrooms. The side vegetables - broccoli and can string beans - were overcooked, mushy dull green. The cropped tomatoes on the Greek salad were spoiled and should have been thrown out. There are better Mediterranean/Greek restaurants in Sacramento than this one. Dining area is in the bar - not a very good dining experience for conversation.”

“Princess party ❤️😍 more to come. Come have your party’s here”

“Amazing food! Best tacos in Sacramento. Owner Shane was really great to speak with. He and his food exude passion. You must try The Char Market! 🌮”

“Good food and good price.”

“The lamb in qabili palaw was tender and could be cut with fork. The curry was spicy but not over the top. All dishes well seasoned and attractively arranged even though takeout. The long grain rice and bread were also very tasty.”

“If you want to test the halal food in Sacramento, don't forget to come here. Enjoy with the family, good food, customer service, and respect !
Please support your Afghan food and your people's! ❤️”

“I told them I am fully vegan and they told me all the vegan options. I am having a delicious sandwich with vegan Dutch Crunch bread, vegan cheese, sprouts, lettuce, vegan mayo and vegan cheese and I also ordered vegan potato salad. I can't wait to come back and try more things, especially their vegan donuts! By 11:45am their donuts has arrived I went back right away and got some. Delicious vegan donuts and I got a Bear Claw with apple filling! Updated from previous review on 2025-09-26”

“Went to this place on Friday, customer service was excellent and the food was exquisite. Will be going back for sure.”

“Great coffee and great owners. Dolly somehow always remembers what my wife eats and drinks!”

“Living in Carmichael for about year and a half, after living in Chicago (.a place that knows a little bit about chicken wings), this is my go to place for chicken wings. Not whole like Chicago.”

“Vegan donuts Friday through Sunday. I usually call ahead to double check! So good 😊 I can’t wait to return!”

“Best place ever! Great food and atmosphere!”

“great service and buffet”

“85/100. As a lover of diners, this is probably one of the better ones I've had the pleasure of trying. I went in with pretty average expectations and genuinely enjoyed my meal. Sadly they were out of onion rings when I went to order the Hagen Burger combo (#3), so I wasn't able to have a full experience quite yet but enjoyed it nonetheless!

The burger to topping ratio was perfect, the meat was cooked well though I couldn't discern any specific seasonings from it, and the toppings were all wonderfully fresh tasting; no warm tomatoes or soggy buns here! The french fries were perfectly crisp on the outside and soft on the inside, as well as being lightly salted for those worried about sodium. You also get a small drink with free refills on soda, which is a massive plus in my book.

So, why only an 85? There isn't anything particular about this meal that stuck out to me and at $17.98 after taxes, it felt like it was missing something else. Additionally, it feels pretty empty and quiet when dining inside the building when there arent many customers though that might be a plus to some others. My last note brings me back to the meal, specifically the burger. I ADORE a good burger and regularly seek out good restaurants with great burgers, but this just didnt stand out at all. By no means do I think it was a bad burger, I just don't think I'd say its a fantastic one.”

“Best, by far, burgers in Sacramento county.”

“I've been going to Lido for some time, with friends and alone. Friends LOVE it!! Great place to meet! GOOD coffee. GOOD service. Nice to know Shawna. GREAT food! GREAT specials! GREAT baked goods (but have to arrive early for a selection - they go FAST). Good ambiance! Also OUTDOOR seating (limited).”

“This is a favorite stop when I'm in the area.
Basic café type menu.
Reasonable prices.
Steady stream of regulars dropping in.
Go location for me.
Plenty of free parking.
Kid friendly.
ADA friendly.”

“We had Volkwaffle come out to cater for our employee appreciation day, and they were great! Staff loved the Volkswaffle truck and the waffles themselves were yummy. Terry was great to work with and very accommodating. I can’t recommend them enough!”

“stopped by the new Sacramento location today and was the first customer Ever! they don't grand open until tomorrow but the owner hooked us up anyways!! thank you so much guys! made our day!”

“Generous portions, perfectly cooked shrimp, and flavors that hit every note, pure magic! This restaurant is my mom's favorite (she and her bestie are regulars), and I was lucky enough to catch them before they left so I could place a to-go order. My go-to test at any Mexican restaurant is the Camarones al Mojo de Ajo (garlic butter shrimp), and I was thrilled to see it on the menu here. Ordering takeout is always a gamble since you're not at the restaurant if something isn't right but I believe quality should be consistent whether dining in or taking food to go. Thankfully, this place delivered in every way. The shrimp were succulent, large, not skimpy, and cooked perfectly. The garlic butter was rich and flavorful without being overpowering, and the sautéed onions balanced it all out. Even the refried beans stood out (something many places surprisingly get wrong). The rice was fairly standard...on the drier side but when mixed with the beans and that delicious garlic butter from the shrimp, it turned into a whole new level of flavor. That's how I made my burritos (that's how I eat this plate, I have to wrap it all up in a flour tortilla. Let me tell you, it was absolute magic! Portions were generous, I could tell the meal was thoughtfully prepared, and every bite was pure satisfaction. The only downside was the styrofoam packaging (I'm not a fan of that), but it didn't take away from how incredible the food itself was. This restaurant easily earns my seal of approval. I'll definitely be ordering from here again because when I say the food was amazing with a capital A, I mean it!”

“The best place for fish and chips nearby. Fair prices for generous portions. The staff is friendly and welcoming. I have found my go to place for the best fish & chips.”

“Some of the best alcohol infused cupcakes I’ve ever had definitely recommend her for any party or event and going to order my next birthday cake from her for next year❤️👍🏽”

“I have ordered from this place so many times, and they have never disappointed, there sushi is a way better then any other sushi, I just wish I could eat it more often!!!!”

“Our first time here. We did a random drop in while driving through Carmichael en route back to the Bay Area. This place is a little gem. I bought the carrot cake and lemon meringue and cannot wait to try it out!!”

“Good food and service. We’ll be back.”

“Great food and stellar service absolutely love this place.”

“I never been there, but it any place that makes gyros with lamb is awesome”

“We had a fabulous dinner here. We spent almost 3 hours since we were with family we hadn't seen in a while. We shared an appetizer and then my husband and I shared the garlic asiago crusted chicken. It was one of the best restaurant entrees I've had in a LONG time and we had leftovers to boot. Our server Cat was very attentive and friendly. We're only in town 2 days and we're considering going back tomorrow. Highly recommend. Oh, and the blood orange IPA was excellent. Prices were reasonable for both food and beer.”

“The Papa Murphy's in Carmichael is conveniently located in a shopping mall at Fair Oaks and Marconi. The employees at this location are always friendly, and the pizza is always delicious.
I prefer their Hawaiian Pizza to one of their competitors nearby.
I like the way my home smells as the pizza is baking in my oven, and it is always HOT!”

“I go here about once every two weeks . I love the food or just for the shake with the boba . I recommend this restaurant to neighbors who live in the neighborhood and bring people from out of the state when visiting . The atmosphere and cleanliness is impeccable . The receptionist / waitress has got to be the most unfriendliness person I have ever met in my 84 yrs of life . It is impossible to even get a friendly smile let alone words or a “thank You” . It is a big turn off. I have neighbors who will not go there because of her. It is hard to ignore .”

“The variety of donuts is great for those donut lovers. Although the options for payment are limited they still offer great service and quality donuts. Definitely recommend everyone in the community to try and visit this local donut shop :)”

“Great selection. And very, very tasty hot and sour soup.”

“I've had the pleasure of eating at their family run restaurant since early 90s. my grandmother use to take us to their Carmichael location for Sunday night dinner. Got to meet the owner back then and had the pleasure of meeting the grandson today at their Lincoln location. I highly recommend this restaurant for its food as well as customer service. Best chicken enchiladas in Ca in my opinion. Thank you Urbano's for all the years of service.”

“Top tier service, quality and professionalism!!”

“The 911 🙌🏽 gives me energy all day ❤️”

“Good food and reasonably priced 👍”

“This is your good ol reliable neighborhood dive bar. They do not serve food but allow you to bring in a snack to munch on (Little Ceasars is next door). Friday nights are great with a DJ who plays a variety of popular music including old school and the current popular music. The crowd is extremely diverse in age and cultures. I have never witnessed an issue or confrontation in this bar but they do have a security person checking IDs. Bartenders are friendly and the drinks are not weak or expensive. You feel like family when you come to this bar as the patrons are super welcoming and friendly. If you just want a chill and super casual vibe, some good music, and an adult beverage, this is definitely the place. See you there! :)”

“The coffee here is so much better than Starbucks. When given a choice, I'd come here every time. The coffee never tastes burnt, always tastes amazing, and the staff always make you feel like they'll give you 100% of their time, no rush. You can't ask for better than that, especially when you take the time to actually go inside.”

“Fresh and delicious bread”

“Love this Place! They have Karaoke Night every Friday and Wednesday starting at 9pm.The Bartenders are Amazingly fast and really nice. Plus they keep the bar CLEAN! Pizza place next door is open till last call.”

“Only at Palm Street best cosmos ever!!!”

“Me and my boyfriend came back after our last great experience during Valentine’s Day. They never disappoint- the wait to seat is basically 0 and our food comes out fast and bomb every time. Hector was our server and made sure to check on us in a timely manner. He was very welcoming and this is one of my favorite brunch spots out there! 10/10 always coming back, I have yet to have a single bad thing to say about this place it’s fantastic! (:”

“Tried the baklava based on other reviews. Yes indeed it was delicious. My daughter is a pastry chef and gave it a thumbs up. The owner Mertada is also very sweet and kind. Will definitely be back.”

“Great sandwiches! Don't let the long lines bother you at lunch, they are really fast! Self-serve soda, my favorite.”

“The young gentleman that helped us was very nice and accommodating. The pizza is really good and the pesto breadsticks!? The best I’ve ever had! I would say more ventilation if possible. It got real warm real quick in there.”

“Food is always great, hot and freshly made. Awesome portion sizes and really friendly and accommodating staff. Their mango lassi is bomb and everything I’ve ordered has been delicious. 100% recommend!”

“Best wings in town! been going here for years and the food and service is always exellent”

“Great Pizza and Friendly Service!
I recently visited this pizza shop, and it was amazing! The pizza was so good – everything was delicious. The crust was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The cheese and sauce were flavorful, and the toppings were fresh. I had the combination pizza, garlic pizza, and taco pizza, and they were all perfect.
They have a lot of pizza choices, so you can find something you like. They also have something new and different – a Nutella pizza with strawberries and bananas on top. It’s so delicious! The garlic knots were also really tasty – warm, buttery, and soft.
The staff were friendly and quick. The place has a nice, relaxed vibe, making it great for a meal with friends or family.
I highly recommend this pizza shop if you want tasty food and great service. I’ll definitely go back!”

“1/17/2025 - Had a nice time playing pool and pinball here. Friendly service from Nikki the bartender. She did a great job. They have three pool tables and two pinball machines, Pulp Fiction and Iron Maiden.”

“Stopped in here for lunch with my family, to start the girl who took our order was very nice and friendly, you order from the bar and find a seat and they bring over your food. Was on the pricey side, a Patty melt, cheeseburger, basket of fries, beer and bloody Mary was 52 bucks, the food was delicious and might bring me back for a second visit. It was a beautiful view looking out to the finely manicured grounds, now some cons, it was extremely loud inside, which made conversation difficult and the worst part was it was full of middle aged golfers that couldn't stop starring at me and my family, like we infiltrated there secret lair, hey golfer guys it is a public restaurant so take your eyes of me and look someplace else. All in all was a nice lunch”

“Blue Sky is one of our favorite Chinese food restaurants and has been ever since we moved into Carmichael in 2016. The owner there is extremely friendly and greeting with a huge smile and I feel hugged when I walk in. It helps to know that we order take out there at least once a month. Our favorites are honey walnut chicken and we ordered the sauce to the side because we have leftovers and we often times like to reheat the chicken. But it's hard to reheat the chicken the next day because the sauce makes the chicken soggy. They're happy to keep the sauce on the side. We also love their Deluxe string bean combo. I like to ask them to add extra green beans which they do. Everything we've ordered there is fantastic. They have the best Chinese mustard in town.”

“Just had an amazing pizza from them tonight. Love the crust, the sauce is tasty and the pepperoni and sausage had a lot of flavor.”

“Me and my girlfriend just ordered food from here tonight. We were not disappointed. Tired of getting let down by high prices, poor quality, & small portions. This food is fresh, authentic, and delicious. We will definitely be coming back! Very satisfied.”

“We hadn't been to the Pig in awhile, but stopped in on Friday to have a drink after dinner. The bartender was so much fun we ended up having a few drinks more! She said her name is Ashley, and she made the night for us. She had good suggestions when my wife wanted to try a new drink, and I loved her taste in music. The other patrons who seemed to know her already were very friendly, too. Definitely going back when she works.”

“Honestly I eat at this jersey mikes once around once a week. Today was the first time having a negative experience. Spoke to Tatiana on the phone and she said come down I’ll give you two free subs since they messed up my order (giant, paid with points). I drive down and she says I told you one free sub, half of what I ordered.. honestly I’ll be back because Jersey mikes is awesome but will try to avoid this shift”

“String was found in my chicken caesar salad.”

“Food taste homemade here. It's so good. There service was fast and our meal wasn't very expensive. And I get nostalgic in there because it was the old Taco Bell from when I was a kid. check it out”

“Love the chorizo breakfast burrito.

Since under new management I've become absolutely addicted to the mini asada tacos. I could eat them every day and I've just about have this last week. So beyond amazing!! Today they also put in a toasted pepper for the first time. So good. Hooked on it now too.”

“Friendly staff with great customer service. Delicious shaved ice. Thank you, Tyler”

“Came here by accident to meet a friend to drop something off. Kitchen was open, so I got myself some beef kebabs and some of the best food I’ve ever eaten. ???”

“1st time getting takeout there. Staff was very nice. Very expensive. Food was ok. Lemon chicken tasted good but the chicken was old, chewy and dry. Sweet and Sour pork was ok and had no pineapple in it which was odd. Chewy and not great tasting pork. Chow mein was good. Broccoli beef was good. Really 3.5 stars so 4 stars os generous. We won't be back. $55 for 4 items is insane. Sorry.”

“Had the iced pumpkin latte with extra shots! Pretty good. I'm not a big Starbucks fan because their espresso is weak compared to Peets, thus the 2 extra shots.😉”

“Typically I go through the drive through early morning, I drive uber. Almost always order a breakfast burrito, they're so cluckin' good man. Ham, egg and cheese burrito is my number 1. Its about $12 after taxes, and the burritos are huge, easily enough for two people. They're food is always good, I think they take great pride in it. Great salsa too. Haven't gone other shifts but the late night/early morning crew kick butt.”

“Great little place, it’s not premium Mexican food, but it does fill the belly, my only suggestion is there’s not any diet sodas? Or sugar free drinks aside from water or tea.”

“We went to this location's drive thru yesterday around 2:30 or so and were told by the person taking orders that there was something wrong with drive thru ordering and to please come inside. I went inside and instantly noticed the workers were slammed which was the real reason they were not taking drive thru orders. The drive thru order taker was needed on the line. I worked food service for about 25 years, including diners, so I understood the real reason the drive thru wasn't working. No big deal. I realized a big part of the problem was that most of the orders were HUGE DoorDash orders. And more Door Dash delivery drivers were coming in constantly. BK simply does not have the staff to handle such a big work load and in the end this will bite them in the butt. It took about 15 minutes before I even got to order. This is not a slam, but a simple fact. There were people on the line freaking out, calling other workers to come in to help, people on the line threatening to walk out because they couldn't handle it. After I finally got my order in it was another 25 minutes as I noticed 4 FAMILIES and a Door Dash delivery guy who order AFTER me got their orders before I got mine. During this time there was a young man who had to leave the burger make station to help package fries and nuggets. I had noticed that he was wearing gloves but had reached into his pocket to get his phone at least 3 times. He became frustrated with the tongs necessary to grab the nuggets, sat it aside and said he was just going to use his hands. As someone who has been ServSafe certified in food safety and sanitation I immediately spoke up and said "Change your gloves, you have had your hands in your pockets at least 3 times." He asked what I said and I repeated. He left the line while removing his gloves and stayed in the office for most the rest of the time I was there. Also, during this 2 workers, Tiera and a male with long dreads, strolled in like an old lady with no sense of urgency while the other workers were panicking to get caught up. Tiera had a large afro popping out about a foot above her visor. Another health violation. She should have a net on her hair if it is not pulled back or covered by a hat. I saw neither of the two go to a hand washing sink before eventually going to help on the line. Another violation. I have nothing against these two employees. Tiera was really nice to me and i'll explain soon. But the manager should have done more managing although I appreciate she was actually helping. The other girl had to run an order out to someone parked and came back with two packs of chicken nuggets in her hand and put them BACK under the heaters. 3rd violation. Once food leaves the line and is bagged it does not go back on the line to be served to someone else. It is to be tossed into the trash. Once the 4th person that ordered after me got their food before me I approached the other girl working the line who took my order but was bagging the food at the time and asked why. She was rightfully exasperated, not at me, but at having skipped me. That's cool, relax, breath, I just want my food. She immediately got my order together and handed it to me. When I got to the car I noticed I had someone elses order along with part of my order, the two Whoppers from a 2'fer coupon. I asked to add cheese and no catchup. I got catchup but no cheese instead. I took them back in and told the girl and she had the guy with dreads make me two new burgers and properly tossed the two wrong burgers in the trash. While waiting Tiera asked if I would like a drink while waiting. She was really nice and apologetic. After receiving the two new burgers I went back to the truck, opened them up and both had no catchup, but only one had cheese. Not willing to go through this again we just sucked it up and went on about our day. I will still order from this establishment in the future. But they either need to get more people or they need to stop accepting Door Dash and other similar orders. It's too much for the sma”
