“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.“

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

“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.“

“Grange is a true gem in Sacramento. The menu is simple and elegant, showcasing delicious meals inspired by fresh, local ingredients. Service was top-notch—the staff is fast, friendly, and knowledgeable. They offer an excellent wine assortment, and the bar features two large TVs, making it a great spot to catch a game. The dining room is contemporary, comfortable, and spacious. It's incredibly convenient if you're staying at the amazing Citizen Hotel; otherwise, valet and street parking are available (though be mindful of the local surroundings). Personal Note: Years ago, Grange catered my wedding upstairs in the hotel, and it was first-class! Given my years of positive experiences, I'll definitely be back.“

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

“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.“

“Yummy food and brew. Game time“

“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!“

“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.“

“We came for the veterans day meals, but will definaly be come back, the foods is amazing with some of the best taste in the thai-mango salad it came with 6 shrimp. The burger was huge and was cooked to prefecture and tasted amazing. The wings were juicy and crunchy.
The staff was friendly and on top of everything!
Nate and Isabella were both friendly, great service and made us feel welcome.

They also have a dog friendly patio with a meal for the puppy, and it's a good meal.“

“Everything! :-) MMMMMMMmmmmmmmmm!!“

“Had the French dip today. It was delicious. We normally come for breakfast. I recommend French toast combo or pancake combo . Those are my favorites . My husband recommends the Leti scramble. Great and friendly staff . 👍🏼👍🏼“

“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.“

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

“This is one of our favorite restaurants. We love the atmosphere and the people. It's like waking into an old New York City restaurant with the low lighting and classy tables. The staff always makes you feel special, and the food is the best in town.“

“My mom says their food is orgasmic . Harry Met Sally style 😉.

If you haven’t tried this place you need to check it out. It has perfect holiday season vibes. I have seen too many restaurants come and go from this location. I had the pasta and bread tonight, heavenly.  They ran out of cookies, so the owner couldn’t be nicer, he made me a beautiful & thoughtful oreo panna cotta. Dude. Yup, so good.

If you need a restaurant for a holiday dinner or brunch, I highly recommend this location. It has cozy indoor and outdoor seating with heaters for outside. Let’s keep their doors open this holiday season as we move into 2026.“

“Fantastic food and a staple of West Sac. Love the homemade chips and beans and a chocolate peanut butter shake.“

“When we walked in I wasn't sure about all of the amazing reviews we'd read, but the food was SO GOOD! The Carne Asada fries lived up to the hype, the service was nice and the space had a lot to do. Definitely coming back for dinner!“

“I would have given all the ratings higher, i have a bit of history with this place years Ago, frequented quite a bit and had great experiences. But my parents turned in their happy hour Menu order before six tonight And she made a point of spelling This out, but when the bill came, both of their happy hour menus were at regular price.My dad addressed it and she fixed one of the items, but not the other. how many older people does this happen to and they don't catch it, that really bothers me.“

“We love the crepes here! The green salad is great with the balsamic dressing!“

“Great service, thank you all🥰“

“Great Food! Love the music! Triangulight Loves playing music here too!“

“love the steak sandwiches!“

“I wish the shop was a bit bigger and the outside wasnt surrounded by trash and a unhoused guy just pees in front of the shop.
However it being a hole in the wall… best Damn chicken spot in Sacramento, and Yolo county. COUnTY not city.
Chicken is fried to perfection, the sauces are HOT as hell. Most important the BUN is warmmmmm ahhh. Soo good.“

“Thank you for the yummy food and homey atmosphere.“

“Hyperbole tends to annoy me. Best season in the history of baseball when Othani went 50/50? Nah. Not even close. Recency bias much? So when I say “Best French Dip in Sac,” I was inherently skeptical. And boy was I right. This wasn't the best French dip in Sac. Far from it. It was the best French dip in the galaxy. By a huge margin. I travel the country, so I've sampled French dips in NY, Colorado, Georgia, Chicago, LA, the pacific north west, you name it. Bar none, this beats them all. Exceptional is an understatement. Kudos the team he chef (who delivers food himself).“

“The location was questionable but let me tell you baby that everything else including the service was the best !!! The young lady told me if was made with love and I am a believer 💕💕💕💕💕💕 the food ( catfish , shrimp and fries) was seasoned with perfection. The pricing was about right but the food baby was delicious. It’s a hidden gem for sure. Cough cough better than surrounding competitors…“

“Love everything about them“

“Great service, staff was extremely attentive even with a large group. Enjoyed preservation of old lighting with decor of bar. Food was mainly American dishes, few Asian flavor inspired dishes, would not recommend for vegetarians due to limited options .“

“Went to the Timbers for an early supper. Arrived early so was able to have a drink on the patio. As the designated driver, I stayed with non-alcoholic beverages, but the rest of my party loved the selections of wine and beer. Dinner was delicious, service was excellent.“

“Mencanta la atención y la comida está muy bien preparada ! 💯recomendada 👌“

“I had the exquisite quinoa salad and luscious goat cheese quiche! This is fantastic "Good Things to Eat", beautifully prepared with a whole lot of heart by two hardworking women who love providing great food to their local community! Highly recommend!“

“One of our go to spots!! My wife and I, as well as our 3 teen boys love it! The Tri-Tip and Bacon wrap is my personal favorite. Expect a great environment and friendly staff every time you visit too!“

“JOSH!!!!! Best server, cleaner and CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!! Tell him Katy and Pete appreciated him so much!!! He made our day!!’ You are so lucky to have him as your employee!!! Happy Holidays to you all!! I“

“Great food and people go get y’all some“

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

“The dessert crepes at this creperie are a delightful treat! I ordered a Nutella and strawberry crepe, and it was heavenly. The quality of the ingredients is top-notch, and the crepe was perfectly cooked. The presentation was beautiful, and the taste exceeded my expectations. Plus, the price was affordable for such a high-quality dessert. I can't wait to try more crepes from here!“

“If you’re looking for a scenic river view while enjoying delicious food, then look no further because Crawdads on The River offers all that and more! If you’re in the mood for something light, try their Ahi Nachos because they’re the best in town! Should you be looking for something unique, I recommend the chowder fries! Maybe you’re in the mood for a more traditional meal — try the cheeseburger! Sandwiches are served with house made chips, but for a dollar extra, you can upgrade to fries, which by the way are seasoned to perfection! If you’re in the mood for a drink or two, try the Sailors Mai Tai ( One is strong enough to give me a buzz), or try one of their icy cocktails. You may choose to dine indoors, at the bar, or outside on the heated patio. While dining on the patio you will enjoy the gorgeous view of the river, so be sure to snap a picture or two while you’re there! The staff is gorgeous and always very friendly! Plus on certain nights they offer comedy shows and live bands! So come out to Crawdads on The River to have some good food and breath taking views. As a tip, you have to experience a sunset at Crawdads because it’s absolutely gorgeous!“

“A wide variety of pre-designed and make-your-own salads and dinner plates in a laid back, counter order atmosphere. We enjoyed the Greek Chicken salad, Steak salad, and Tri-tip plate. Quick, affordable, & flavorful, with fresh ingredients.“

“My Favorite Place to Eat every time i come to Old Sacramento. willies is the place to be for their animal style fries . Garlic fries and especially their hamburgers. I've also had their beignets before and they are delicious just as Disneyland.“

“Always good, friendly staff and food that is made exactly how you want it.“

“Portion sizes are massive come hungry. The staff is great and the place is cute and comfortable m. We went for brunch, I got the Chilaquiles and iced black coffee. Flavours are great, the right mix of spicy tangy and yum. You cant tell but this plate was dinner plate sized and loaded.
The only reason I am rating 4 and not 5, as they only had one food option without ham.“

“nice and family oriented and pets are welcome“
