Cocktail Bar • $$
“We just wanted to post how much we enjoyed dinner tonight. We were a party of four, I had your Dine Elk Grove special dinner, my wife the sausage, the other couple the burger and Sauerbraten. We all enjoyed both our meals and the beers! Typical, fresh fried German food, excellent sides and a great selection of beers! The strudel with whipped cream was the way to end the meal. The highlight was truly our server, Kylee! She has a larger than life personality and was really fun to banter with. She really made the experience fun….we’ll be back for sure, most likely on a Wednesday night Which we understand is the one night a week she works. If in Elk Grove, give them a try. It was a fun experience! Walt Elk Grove, CA”

Korean • $$
“If you need sambal and meat dipping sauce, this place is it. Their sauce is yummy. The sauce is comparable to Blue House. I enjoyed the plain brisket and loved the marinated rib fingers....so tender. Enjoyed all the sides and the Melona ice cream. Everyone was friendly. You can request for half orders. This place will be my new kbbq place.”
Mexican • $$

Mexican • $$
“Food was good. Complaint though about the fact they wouldn’t write us separate tickets. 😡 another way to gouge the public because they planned on us rounding up when it was $37.80 to $38 even and there was a nearly 5 dollar surcharge that they didn’t explain. Not really a good experience”

Juice Bar & Smoothies • $
“They were open later than our normal acai place, so we decided to give this place a try... I won't be needing the other Acai place, this will be my go to place instead. more vegan options, better toppings (loved the cashew crunch typing), and they didn't charge extra for nut-butters. Acai bowl was one of the best I've had.”
Food Trucks
“The Mix Up food truck! I ordered the kabob plate of a ribeye kabob and a lamb kabob. Mmmm, the kabobs were delicious. Big, hunky cuts of tender, flavorful meat; all grilled to perfection. The folks working the truck were fantastic. Big, fun personalities.
What initially caught my eye was the very dramatic graphic design on the truck. It looked like a vintage movie poster with a woman in Mexican traditional garb and Arab man individually both looking contemplatively into the distance. As I walked closer, I found out they were selling Arab and Mexican food with their signature dish being their famous ribeye kabob.
I ordered the kabob plate. It came with two kabobs, rice, salad,hummus and pita bread. $22. Yup, that price point may have you thinking twice but I was able to get two meals out of this plate. The kabob serving size was huge. I chose the ribeye and lamb kabobs. Chicken was the other option. They weren't stingy on the protein serving. The meats are actual cuts of filets, not ground meat. It was tender, flavorful with a great grill to it. Instead of rice, I asked for double the salad. The salad was fresh tasting and vibrant looking. The hummus was packed with a garlicky punch.”

I love the small paper bag the fries were in, fits perfect in my cupholder of my truck. Took a chance on the baklava and it was delicious! I’m definitely going back to try some of their other plates.”
Seafood • $
“This place feels like it's hidden away from alot of other businesses but boy does it shine?
Thank you for the meal, the food was incredible. Big fan of the blue masa tortillas and you finish it off so well with the tacos you've put together.
I didn't get pictures of everything, but I did grab one of the Al pastor tacos...
Those pickled onions SET IT OFF.
Go. Now. ? you won't regret it.”

“Sal’s Kabob Gyro Grill is hands down the best Mediterranean food in town! Our family has been coming here for years, and every visit feels like coming home. Sal, the owner, is always so welcoming and kind to us. He treats every guest like family, and it makes the whole experience even more special.
Now, let’s talk about the food—absolute perfection! The lamb kabobs are cooked to juicy perfection, full of flavor, and just melt in your mouth. We also love the chicken shawarma; it’s seasoned so well, and the garlic sauce that comes with it is heavenly. The gyros are packed with fresh ingredients, and don’t even get me started on the hummus! Creamy, rich, and paired with the best warm pita bread you’ll ever taste.
If you’re looking for authentic, delicious Mediterranean cuisine with an owner who genuinely cares about his customers, look no further than Sal’s. We’re lucky to have found this gem!”

“Fast service. Our waiter & his team were friendly, attentive, and fast to get our food out. Vienna the Supervisor and our waiter checked on us often, which my party of 8 appreciated very much. It was cool to see the robo-waiter/waitress, but there’s no substitute yet for excellent customer service from humans. Will be coming back to this location. Thank you for a great dinner experience Elk Grove staff 🤙🏽

Food Court • $
“The Market inside Sky River Casino is a huge mixed restaurant area like a food court, but much better in the services and the shared dining areas.I tried most of the many food choices in the Market. Some are very good, like the hot chicken sandwich, pizzas, Vietnamese pho, and cheeseburger. They're very yummy and the portions are generous. A few items I tried will have room for improvement. For example, the prime rib sandwich, wonton noodles soup, and chowder bread bowl. But I do enjoy most of the food there.Every restaurant worker in the Market is very friendly and attentive. The cashiers are very patient and helpful if you help to order or need a recommendation from them. The cleaning workers are very polite as well. The customer service employees will come to your table to make sure you've enjoyed your meals. The Market has an excellent service even compared to any restaurant.The shared dining areas are almost one of the best shared dining rooms I have seen. It is comfortable, clean, and quiet.The Market has so many different styles of restaurants in there. I still need more time to try them all. I'm sure you'll find some dishes you like!
Parking: Finding parking spaces in the back parking lot is much easier than in the parking lot at the front of the casino.”

“Outstanding food and service. I grew up in North Beach area of San Francisco eating at Caesar's, Little Joe's, Capps, U.S. Restaurant, Columbus and others. Brick House Italian options rivals each of those legendary restaurants. Minestrone is the best! Pasta dishes are tasty and plentiful. Highly recommend.

Coffee Shops • $
“Great coffee, fantastic staff, quick service.
This "Dutchies" location has exactly one drawback, navigating the ingress/egress of access. Where are these cones going? Can you turn in off El Camino, can you not? LOL.
Despite being located immediately across from El Camino High School with heavy traffic intermittently throughout the day and students bombarding the staff regularly in large groups, staff are fast and efficient, upbeat and busting with cheerful, perky, customer service forward attitudes. Occasionally, they'll have the music flowing, BUT it's at a tolerable volume. Other locations, Woodland, for example, crank up the volume on the exterior facility music so loudly, you can't hear others inside your own vehicle speak to you even with your windows up. I like loud music but that's ridiculous.
At this location, the staff ALWAYS get my order correct, always offer "sip stoppers" to prevent spilling, offer carry trays when appropriate, and ask me, "How's your day going?"
All in all, you get great fresh coffee delights served with a friendly smile at a decent price quickly. That's how it's supposed to be.
Vegetarian options: Oatmilk, almond milk, all the milks available!
Dietary restrictions: Several sugar free options available and ways to cut the carbs.
Parking: More parking than other locations.
Kid-friendliness: Hot chocolate, fruity selections.

Pizza • $
“Wow, just WOW! My taste buds are still dancing after trying the Acharri Chicken Pizza. The crust was golden and crispy on the edges, yet delightfully chewy in the center—perfection! Every bite was a burst of smoky, spicy, and slightly tangy goodness, balanced.
The service was quick and friendly, making the entire experience seamless. If you’re a pizza lover or just someone craving something unique and unforgettable. Trust me, your taste buds will thank you. We’ll definitely be back for more—this is now my go-to pizza spot! 🍕🔥”
Ramen • $
“First time eating here and I was blown away on how good and flavorful the dishes were. It really felt like we were in Japan with each bite. The service was also immaculate!

I had the sashimi platter, which was fresh and expertly prepared. The sushi rolls were a true highlight—beautifully crafted and bursting with flavor. The ambiance was chic and sophisticated, with minimalist design and soothing background music that created a peaceful atmosphere. This is a great spot for both casual dinners and special occasions. I can’t wait to return!”

“Fabulous food, even more fabulous service. We sat at the bar because they were so busy. The bartender was awesome. Drinks were very tasty, and she was totally on top of her bar. Drinks were done very quickly, and food was as well. Only gave 4 stars for food and atmosphere because I wanted to show that the bartender deserved a higher rating.”
Noodles • $$
“Came back last Saturday and tried three more soups: C4 beef tripe hot pot rice noodle was delicious, recommended. A18 beef slice with kimchi was decent. Last one, A9, golden hot and sour was ok.
Nice, clean restaurant, friendly service, decent food. Currently have promotions going, recommended. The rice noodles were smooth and tasty. Tried two broth, the C3, pickled cabbages and fish, was creamy and delicious, recommended. The A14, spicy beef brisket was decent, at bit too spicy for myself, not sure if they have the option to adjust the spice level. It wasn't asked during ordering. Will be back to try another items.”

“Absolutely delicious take-out/doordash restaurant! We’re Asian and love Japanese food, and this gem of a restaurant gave us our favorite Japanese food in the area.

We couldn’t stop smiling when we were eating.”

“We started coming to this location because South Sac was too far to drive. I'm so glad they have one in Elk Grove. Not only do they offer all the drinks, but really good service as well. They will give you recommendations based on what you like. We usually order #10 with taro and one of the Halo Halo's. Although you pay $9.50 for Halo Halo, they're not skimpy with their toppings, so I think it's worth it. But the drinks could be a slightly bigger size. $6-7 a drink is pretty pricey for the size they give you. But because of the good service I still give them a 5. Thanks, Bambu for gour yummy Halo Halos!”
Bubble Tea • $
“I haven’t come to this side of Elk Grove in awhile and it used to be cool tea bar. I originally came because I thought it was cool tea bar but it was Hyper Tea. I was sad to see cool tea bar was no longer here but still decided to check it out. Instantly had a feeling I was going to like it because there was a kid taking my order lol. For some reason, if kids take your order it’s like the place is going to be good. We had ordered spicy popcorn chicken which was so moist. Usually most places is dry. We also got spicy fries which is just like any other fries. My boyfriend got takoyaki which he said was good. I also got a mango green tea and my boyfriend got a Thai milk tea. Mine tasted fine, a little too much boba for my preference. My boyfriend said his drink was a little bitter but not too much. Overall, I do look forward to coming back since they have popcorn chicken and most boba places don’t have that anymore. They also offer stamp cards which is cool. The decor had a lot of Lego sets which was cool to look at. They had games you can plan. Also played kpop music! Definitely check it out!

“I have been coming to the Elk Grove location of 5 or 6 years and it is the best. The employees are very nice, and the sandwiches are always delicious! They are the best of the best sandwiches by far! The Northshore is my favorite. The sandwiches are very fresh, have a lot of meat and produce and are well presented open face (see photo). Look at how much meat and produce there is compared to the amount of bread. The owner (I think her name is Lea) is very nice, very welcoming, and provides excellent customer service. I am always extremely satisfied when I go there. Great job, Lea!”

“For some reason it won’t let me NOT RECOMMEND! Very bad customer service, they charged almost $70 for tips and didn’t even say “Thank you”. We had to literally yell for service, the table next to us was serviced by a girl and she did took care of her table, I wouldn’t recommend spending your money here, first and last time. We spent almost $500, and not worth it, not coming back”

“We've been to Chuck E. Cheese several times for birthday parties and last-minute fun.
Parking is typically fairly easy to find as they're in a large shopping center.
The employees are always friendly and helpful. Like many places, sometimes they're stretched thin, but most do their best to take care of the guests. Daniela, Denise, Maxine, and Priscilla are always amazing to our family, and they're clearly great ambassadors for the brand and amazing employees.
We purchased the gold summer fun pass. In a nutshell, you can play up to 250 games daily, additional credits are 50% off, and nearly all of their food is 50% off as well. It's easy to redeem using their app on your Android or Apple device.
Pro tip to save money if you're a Sam's Club member. They regularly sell gift cards for 25% off and up to 30% off during promos. You can use those gift cards for any everyday purchases. The only thing they're not applicable to is birthday parties. Be sure to buy the souvenir soda cups as you receive free refills on them for the life of the cup.
The arcade area is typically fairly clean. I am sure to always have our girls wash and sanitize their hands before eating or before we leave. The restrooms are typically pretty well maintained.
The pizzas are always decent, and the salad bad is always clean, fresh, and well maintained.
Our girls have had an amazing time here countless times throughout the summer. We're going to look into signing up for the monthly fun pass beginning next year. It's similar to the summer pass, but it's $29.99 monthly and requires a 12 month commitment.”

“My first impression in this place was, Wow.
It's clean, friendly, and professional. They're very attentive to their customers.
I was pregnant at the time, but I was craving for sushi 🍣 . I told the waitress I was expecting and asked her to recommend the sushi I could eat. She recommends which one to get and which one is the most delicious. I ordered a lot of sushi rolls for the family (more like for me 😄). I also love their calamari. Delicious. My daughters love their bento box 🍱
I'm impressed by the chef, very skilled. My family and I really enjoyed the interactive hibachi grill experience. We enjoyed eating our sushi and appetizers while watching the chef cook in front of us. 💯🔥 Fired rice was so delicious even though it might not look like it. I honestly thought it wouldn't taste good but I was wrong. It was delicious! All the food there are.
I can't believe I would witness my shy daughter and non drinker husband participate in the food tossing and sake squirting. 😂
My husband loved their wagyu beef so much he couldn't stop talking about it how delicious it was.
With a family of 4 that ordered a lot of food and hibachi grill, I think it was a reasonable price. $300+ Overall, it's worth it to experience it with the family. ❤️
Highly recommended to come eat at this place with your family and enjoy the hibachi grill experience. I would go again!”

“Visited this location during my short trip to Sunny California. I normally order Wing Stop of BW3’s but I figured I’d try someone new. I really enjoyed the lemon pepper and I absolutely loved the fries.”

“We were extremely impressed with the menu and drink options as well as the neat atmosphere of the restaurant. The staff (all male waiters) were friendly and helpful explaining items on the menu and also made recommendations. The food was made to order, served nice and hot, naan was delicious and fresh; rice and appetizers great. Our overall experience there was fantastic! We will continue going there for more menu selections.”

“I don't normally write reviews, but I had to commend this place. I came in with two clients who have intellectual disabilities for their lunch buffet, and the service was phenomenal! One of my clients is very particular about his pizza, and the bearded staff member ensured he was well taken care of.”

“Went for Father's Day dinner. My Dad loves the Lasagna and I had a very good Chicken Parmesan. Service was pretty good considering how busy it got as time went on. We had a 5PM reservation, so we were earlier. Only thing we missed was the parmesan cheese server. But it was still good!”

“I have been coming to the Elk Grove location of 5 or 6 years and it is the best. The employees are very nice, and the sandwiches are always delicious! They are the best of the best sandwiches by far! The Northshore is my favorite. The sandwiches are very fresh, have a lot of meat and produce and are well presented open face (see photo). Look at how much meat and produce there is compared to the amount of bread. The owner (I think her name is Lea) is very nice, very welcoming, and provides excellent customer service. I am always extremely satisfied when I go there. Great job, Lea!”

“We just wanted to post how much we enjoyed dinner tonight. We were a party of four, I had your Dine Elk Grove special dinner, my wife the sausage, the other couple the burger and Sauerbraten. We all enjoyed both our meals and the beers! Typical, fresh fried German food, excellent sides and a great selection of beers! The strudel with whipped cream was the way to end the meal. The highlight was truly our server, Kylee! She has a larger than life personality and was really fun to banter with. She really made the experience fun….we’ll be back for sure, most likely on a Wednesday night Which we understand is the one night a week she works. If in Elk Grove, give them a try. It was a fun experience! Walt Elk Grove, CA”

“Great banh mi place Multiple delicious cheesecake slices to choose from And their grilled pork banh mi is very very tasty as well as their Taro slush 🫶🏼”
Asian Fusion
“This place is exactly as you would expect from an Asian late night bar type of restaurant.
The food was surprisingly good in terms of less Korean sweet flavoring in there food. Which is a plus in my book. Will definitely be a turn off for others.
The only downside is the price to portion ratio. It is some of the worse I have seen.”

“I'm not a huge fan of Chinese food but this was elevated. It was NOT drenched in oil. The meat was NOT mostly fat. Orange chicken had a lovely light fry on it, perfect balance of meat to crunch.”

“This place feels like it's hidden away from alot of other businesses but boy does it shine?
Thank you for the meal, the food was incredible. Big fan of the blue masa tortillas and you finish it off so well with the tacos you've put together.
I didn't get pictures of everything, but I did grab one of the Al pastor tacos...
Those pickled onions SET IT OFF.
Go. Now. ? you won't regret it.”

“Good food and lots of it. Great and friendly service. Just a pleasurable experience.”
“Food was good. Complaint though about the fact they wouldn’t write us separate tickets. 😡 another way to gouge the public because they planned on us rounding up when it was $37.80 to $38 even and there was a nearly 5 dollar surcharge that they didn’t explain. Not really a good experience”
