This was one of my grandfather’s favorite places to grab a sandwich especially their pepper steak sandwich. We highly recommend a pepper steak sandwich with some of the Carolina sauce on it. Delish!“

“First time at the Sunrise Olive Garden. Food is always good especially my favorite the Shrimp Alfredo. But what impressed me the most was that the Chef came out and introduced herself and ask how was the meal. Very swanky!! Thank you Olive Garden..more restaurants should have their Chef's do the same..“

“This location provides awesome customer service. Reception, manager and staff were friendly and check in with you constantly. Our server Alexa and Heidi ensured our food was delivered on time. They replaced the calamari as it was too salty to my preference with no issue . Suggested the new spicy honey chicken and it was great . I really think it should be on their menu forever. Manager came to check in with us as well . Well this is how I remembered Olive Garden used to be previously in the Bay Area as well . I’m pleasantly surprised that this location still upholds the standard. Food was delicious too. Thank you“

“Celebrated our 17th wedding anniversary tonight, every bite of our meal was absolutely fantastic! The service was spot on. Highly recommend this place, will be back soon.“

“This is my favorite pizza place. I love the sauce because it's not too acidic and has a slight hint of sweetness. They cook my favorite pizza just the way I ask them to: crust golden not brown.

The cheese is perfect and so are the Canadian bacon and mushrooms. I always order a large with Canadian bacon and mushrooms and they always make it perfectly!

On top of that, the staff is so friendly and helpful. Awesome people! Delivery guys are wonderful and always bring my pizza in a timely manner. It's never cold!

To the management, you have great workers! Thank you all for being the best pizza makers! I will always be a loyal customer!

If you haven't tried it yet, I highly recommend it. Great place!“

“The pizza was absolutely delicious. Full of vegetables and the crust was great. They are now our Go To Pizza!!“

“As always enjoyed my meal and was happy that my all-time favorite server was working. My Husband Barry and I spent almost every Saturday night having our meal here it was our favorite place. Went with my friend last night and was happy to get Amy to serve us. She was covering a vacation for another server. Having her at our table brought back many happy memories of Barry and my past. He passed away last year, and I miss him so much. The food was great as always and the company of having Amy serving us made the night perfect. We shared many happy memories. I hope to visit again soon for a great meal and the outstanding service that Amy offered. Thank you for the great food and friendly service“

“Contemporary atmosphere, friendly staff, and delicious food! We enjoyed a selection of craft brews, the beet salad with buratta, the Brescia wood-fired pizza, and affogato for dessert. Dining at the bar, we enjoyed a spirited conversation with Tyler. It was a delightful evening!“

“I've eaten at, picked up from and received deliveries from this Lamppost Pizza since 2001. Always delicious and order is always accurate. The other reviews sound like the same instance using different IDs. We have never had a problem with the food or the service.“

“While we enjoyed the pizza at this place, they are indeed closed permanently. At 4:00 pm the other day, they did not open and then we saw through the windows all the tables and chairs had been removed. Since there was no signage outside to indicate they were closed, I searched the internet and found an article from mid December, 2025 that they were closing permanently on 12/31/2025.“

“Wonderful pizza, the crust was perfect.“

“My all time favorite pizza place. Unfortunately I moved to the Bay Area when I was a teenager so I can only get it when I come over to Sacramento or driving through to auburn or Reno. The family meal is my jam, garlic chips, (also my all time favorite) Caesar salad, and pepperoni pizza. Every time. Been coming here for 36 years. Wish you guys would come over to the sf peninsula area!“

“Remarkable and wildly underrated! If you havemt yet you should give this place a try. Made with love and kindness and fast! The best in the area! Blessed to have an establishment in this part of town! Can't say enough about how great it is!“

“This is one of the best pizzas I ever ate you guys should try the Indian pizzas“

“Customer service was awesome!“

“Went there for my birthday dinner. The food was so good and the service was great.“

“❤⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We ordered the Family Meal from O’Connor’s to sample a bit of everything—1/2 lb Tri-Tip and Brisket, two half chickens, garlic mashed potatoes, tri-tip chili, garlic bread, and BBQ sauce—and everything was fantastic! The chicken had a flavorful dry rub, and the skin was perfectly crispy while the meat stayed incredibly juicy. The tri-tip was tender and packed with flavor, and the brisket had a rich, smoky taste that hit all the right notes. But the surprise standout? The tri-tip chili—absolutely outstanding! The garlic mashed potatoes were creamy and comforting, and that loaf of garlic bread didn’t stand a chance once we got started. Add in friendly, helpful service, and you've got a 5-star experience. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Absolutely love sbbaro it is a true institution and they need way more locations n make the break sticks how they did in the early 2000s they were truly one of the greatest bread sides ever and don't get me started on how amazing the stromboli and lasagna are.“

“This was the first time ordering pizza. We got take out. We got a special 2 medium pizza for 22.99. I have to say they were so delicious, we so enjoyed our brother special and a mushroom. We gave some to our neighbors and they too liked them . I’m thinking already for when I can get pizza again. This place is my now go to pizza.“

“Best pizza in Sacramento area hands down!! Homemade everything!“

“The pizza is always good and warm when I go to pick it up. The staff are always friendly and helpful. They have chairs for the people that want to wait for their pizza. The store is very clean. There is no eating on the premises. They have paper plates and napkins if you want no charge.“
