“I’m a vegetarian and chose to not eat the bean tacos. They did an excellent job customizing my tacos with Rice, Cheese, Lettuce, Pico, and Sour Cream.“

“A wonderful evening of great food, personal service and casual fun atmosphere.“

“It was a great time and awesome food! The atmosphere, staff and Chef/owner Chris Barnum-Dann made it an experience I’d never had before. Thank you!“

“Must go for Trivia Wednesdays you won't be disappointed!“

“Cute little place! Fresh and delicious 🤤“

“My opinion best Hamburgers in Sacramento. Where else can you get a burger made from venison, wild boar, Wagyu, Bison, Camel or even Gator bites ? Exotic meats and great selection of craft beers owner is an awesome staff is great and the cook is on point. Oh and the fries are to die for 🤤. Definitely a must try if you are in the Sacramento area and love hamburgers and fries.“

“Had dinner here on 1-15-25 party of 3. Very good service. Espresso martinis were great! Started with artisan bread and Brussel sprouts. It was a little weird to have the pancetta on the side vs mixed into the dish but everyone agreed we really liked them. Then we had Dungeness crab arrabiata, duck fat seared scallops and the short rib. Favorite dish was the short rib! The arrabiata had a good variety of seafood but I wasn’t a huge fan of the squid ink tonarelli. The scallops we tasty just tiny and too few, so that was the least liked dish. Finished off with a flourless chocolate cake that was good. Next time we want the brie appetizer! I’d dine here again but it hasn’t moved into my top 10. We each had a cocktail to start and shared a modest bottle of Pinot. Out the door $400.“

“What a fantastic meal! We are actually still dining as this review is being written. We ordered deviled eggs and truffles frites, they were amazing. My hubby ordered the burger and I ordered tge pork shank. OMG (GOSH!) it was exceptionally delicious and just plain good! We will return as this was our first visit. Tgank you for a wonderful meal and experience. Matt & Sofia“

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

“We stopped in for dinner last night, our first time, and it was hands down the best meal we've had since living in CA. The reuben egg rolls were mouthwatering, to say the least. We also brought our daughters with us, and you accommodated to them, so well. Thank you again! We will be back.“

“Good food and service prices are kinda high. 2 burgers and 2 drinks for lunch $57.“

“Best Sea Bass dish I have ever had.“

“Pleasantly surprised with UoB! This was my first visit which was a retirement party for a coworker and this place was bustling! UoB staff greeted us, took orders promptly and efficiently, everything was delicious and correct, the vibes were really fun & I loved the semi private outdoor seating(trees/landscaping were blocking the public’s view). There was at least 50 of us at the party and another non related party occurred on the other side of the restaurant so I think it’s safe to say call to reserve seats/tables if you’d like to celebrate here. It’s not super large but I love the size of this establishment because it’s comfortable. I’ve been looking for more places that don’t break the bank while socializing and this is definitely one! The happy hour prices were amazing too! $10 for a smoking Old Fashioned, Raspberry Lemon Drops, Margaritas, food and more. And plus, regularly priced, those drinks were only a few dollars more so while happy hour was awesome, I won’t let that be the only time I come. This is one of those affordable places you can go to anytime. We thoroughly enjoyed the crab sandwich, the show for my husbands Old Fashioned and the positive vibes from Shift Lead On Y. She was awesome, her team was awesome, we had a lot of fun & we will be back! Bathrooms were super clean too! Thank you!“

“🥰 love it food was great and good 👍“

“What a small, cute diner this is. Meet a friend there, our half way point between south Sac & Roseville. We both were greeted promptly & seated right away. We both ordered the waffle combo. Waffle was golden & delicious, bacon was cooked crispy- yum! My medium eggs were cooked just right, Great breakfast for my friend too, she got her bacon extra crispy, got a nice mound of scrambled eggs and enjoyed her waffle as well! I can't believe that I haven't tried before today, but I will be a returning for sure! Also the service was excellent!“

“This place is a true gem! My husband and I have ate here twice now and we have NOT been disappointed. Our first time there he ordered a burger of some sort and I got the grilled chicken sandwhich in a lettuce wrap. Both were absolutely delicious. Our second time around he got the pesto crepe with fries, and I got the Mediterranean crepe with salad. We both agreed that my crepe was better, despite our love of pesto, but both were good. The fries and salad hit the spot as well, mostly because their ranch dressing is fantastic. Prices were definitely reasonable. I look forward to trying other things on the menu. Whether you want savory or sweet there's something for everyone!“

“Back in 2020 while in town for a cousin's wedding. The wedding party ate here. Being a retired chef from Louisiana but residing in Nashville. So I know seafood. I would give this place 5 🌟 because the food deserves 2 👍 and staff and place was A-1.“

“The French Dip was Fantastic! I added Mushrooms and glad I did. The Aujus and Creamy Horseradish gave it Multiple Savory Flavors with a Bread that had the perfect balance of soft and crunchy to hold it all together. Our Server Lisa made the experience all the more enjoyable by being Super Attentive, Warm, and Funny!!“

“Had a great time at Bjs in Roseville. Our waitress was Alyssa she made our night.“

“Squeeze Inn has the best burgers in town and honestly, they should be considered one of the best burgers in the USA.

Every time I stop by, I see the same people working, and I love that it is a true family owned local business. As a business owner myself, I really appreciate seeing that kind of consistency, pride, and hard work.

The burgers are incredible. The meat always tastes fresh and is cooked perfectly, the cheese skirt is truly one of a kind, and the produce is always crisp and fresh. You can tell they care about what they’re serving.

I love this place and will continue being a customer every week. Thank you guys for making my day every time I stop by for lunch!“

“We arrived around 8:00 pm on a Sunday night. No dining service was available so we sat at the bar. A limited menu was available. We shared the meat and cheese plate, which was nothing exceptional. We were expecting more, based on online reviews, but perhaps we were there at the wrong time.“

“Great food. Good ambiance, friendly employees. Would highly recommend the establishment!“

“I eat at Huckleberry’s at least twice a month, today however my experience was not good to the point that I did not leave a tip and feel terrible about that. I went in around noon on Sunday, I knew it would be busy. I signed in for one and was told it would be a 10 minute wait. I sat there roughly 10 minutes. Two ladies came in signed in. Apparently they knew one of the waitress and were seated a few minutes later even though I was there before them. A waiter then approached the hostess and pointed at the clipboard, the hostess told him she was not going to seat one person in a booth. So I approached the hostess that initially signed me in and inquired why the two ladies were given a booth even though I was there before them, she didn’t know and looked for the waitress who sat them. The waitress proceeded to move them to a bigger booth to seat me. I was very disappointed. I realize it was not right to leave a tip but customers should not be given preferential treatment.“

“Visited family in that area last month & my daughter took us to Veg Cafe for brunch...the french toast was wonderful..the fries were top notch & would love to know what coating or frying method is used to make them the most fantastic fries! Now all other fries will be blah in comparison.“

“Atlanta has the Varsity hotdogs, Los Angeles has Pinks hotdogs, and Sacramento has Willie's Burgers hotdogs, best place with the best taste“

“I have been an avid Starbucks drinker for over 10 years. I had the Atomic Chick yesterday and it was so good I have decided to stop drinking Starbucks so I can spend that money here instead! The food is outstanding! The atmosphere is amazing, the music is nostalgic and IT'S KID FRIENDLY🤯 The owner is funny and so nice, the staff was above and beyond. I will absolutely be coming back time and time again! Can not wait to try everything on the menu.“

“Daniel was our server at the Roseville location and he was exceptional! He was very thorough on some of the highlights on the menu, suggested some great starters, and also an amazing wine pairing. Can someone tell me how is this young man working in a restaurant at a mall? This guy needs to be in a Michelin star rated restaurant because he is so attentive to his customers, and despite also attending to a large party of 20 something people (And you know, they showed up without a reservation, SMH) He was on the ball and still attentive to us! I had written off Lando for a while, but Daniel really made this a pleasant experience, so Lando is back in our rotation of local restaurants to visit!“

“Have been coming to Moxie for decades now, and it's one of my favorite hidden gems in Sacramento. Great food, great service, and Adam is a hoot. Would love to see them open during the week like the old days, but barring that, I'll still continue to visit for dinner on the few days they are open.“

“This place was awesome! Starting with the aesthetic, the art on the walls was incredible! The staff was extremely attentive and offered the daily special, which is a super bonus cause your girl likes her deals! The food was really good and the price was great. We just found our new date night spot!“

“This place is so awesome! Their food is great. It’s a Dodgers bar so any Dodgers fan in sac please make sure to support.

They play all games but the owners are Dodgers family.

Live DJ Friday and Saturdays this place is a vibe!!!“

“Yummy food and brew. Game time“

“everything, the bowling good food and the dj on Friday nights“

“Good food and good price.“

“We had a work dinner at Canon in East Sac, and it absolutely delivered. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere struck the perfect balance — elevated but comfortable, with a great energy that makes conversation easy and the evening feel special without being stuffy. The food was outstanding. Every dish was beautifully presented and full of flavor — creative without being overcomplicated. It’s clear there’s real intention behind the menu, and everything we ordered felt thoughtfully prepared. Canon is one of those places that works just as well for a professional dinner as it would for a date night or celebration. Incredible food, great vibe, and an overall experience that didn’t disappoint. Highly recommend.“
