“What a great spot! Great drinks, chill atmosphere, and good music. The lighting is fabulous for a night cap, intimate conversation, and a few drinks before the clubs. Tables and seating are varied in placement from the bar stools, to a standing table, to smaller tables with big seating areas. Our bartender was excellent and they were so accommodating to our group which grew and grew by the end of the night. Will definitely be going back again.“

“Sunday Night Dance Party!!! A funky good time with some serious party people...I’m usually there and hope to see you there. :D“

“It’s a beautiful place, with really good food but it’s all about the cocktails! The “mixologist” served me three (I was Ubering) variations on my favorite, Manhattans, and all had a name and all were delicious!“

“#AmazingBar #ClaytonClubSacramento 🥰“

“Food is outstanding. Restaurant is beautiful inside. They also have a rooftop lounge inside the hotel.“

“Heirloom tomatoes--the best!“

“If you are looking for a Swanky place this is definitely NOT the place you are NOT downtown paying 15 dollars for a drink. If you're looking for a great place to get a great drink at a great price this is your place. If you act like a tool tben you get treated as such....if you are laid back you get treated as such.“

“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.

Tgank you for a wonderful meal and experience. Matt & Sofia“

“great service and wonderful selection of booze“

“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.“

“Cute place! High quality ingredients. Excellent food and service!“

“Finally got the chance to come with a friend for lunch after strolling around the farmer’s market. This restaurant is beautiful inside and out, has bar seating, tables, and a spacious patio underneath lovely midtown trees. The inside is super bright, lots of decor on the walls, flowers everywhere, and the energy was great.

We came on an early Saturday afternoon with no reservation but were seated after 20 minutes. Even then, the restaurant was packed! I would definitely recommend getting a reservation if you plan to come later in the evening and/or have a large group with you (it was only two of us).

I decided to order the soup of the day, which I believe was a squash/butternut squash soup, Parmesan and truffle fries, and my friend ordered the truffle macaroni and cheese with the “the hipster” cocktail. They also brought complimentary rosemary bread and oil. The bread was soft, the cocktail was great and very decent portion, the soup was perfectly balanced and went great with the toasted bread. The fries were a little cold but tasty and came with garlic aioli and ketchup. My friend said her macaroni and cheese was yummy and she would order again. The menu is full of options and we will definitely be back to try more things. Must come if wanting either a romantic night out or a lovely dinner with friends!“

“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!“

“Fun relaxing good energy great vibes and great food and drinks“

“I always enjoy my visits here. The staff is genuinely friendly and attentive, which makes every experience pleasant. If you prefer a relaxed meal, coming earlier in the day is a great idea since it is quieter. In the evening it gets quite busy because it is so popular, so making a reservation is definitely recommended.“

“best ceviche in town and price“

“Great place! Very friendly community!“

“We ordered catering from Field-n-Flame Midtown for a corporate event and it exceeded expectations. The food arrived right on time (huge bonus: no delivery fee), and everything was still hot and incredibly fresh. The selections were beautiful and unique, not your standard catering spread, and it really elevated our lunch.

Several attendees asked where it was from, which says it all. Looking forward to the next time lunch is catered by Field-n-Flame. Until then, I’ll happily be stopping by their Midtown location!“

“I found Octopus Peru while searching for a restaurant near Golden 1 Arena, and it was a fantastic choice! We started with drinks—my wife loved her “Amore del Mar” so much she had two, and my “Guava Affair” was incredible. I also tried the “Peruvian Spicy,” which had tequila, ginger, mango, and habanero syrup—the heat was perfect! We have a tradition of ordering oysters, so we couldn’t resist the ½ dozen, but the “Smokey Tuna Tostada” was the real star.

The portions were large, prices reasonable, and despite how busy it was, the staff was friendly and attentive. A highlight was chatting with the owner, who told us about his other restaurant, “Octopus Baja”—I’ll definitely be trying it next time we’re in midtown! The inviting atmosphere set the perfect tone for a parents' night out without the kids before the show. Can’t wait to go back!“

“My son and daughter treated me to a birthday lunch here. I loved it! Our waitress was amazing. The food was really good and I finally got to see inside. I've always wondered what it looked like inside. It's definitely a great vibe.“

“Creole Soul Restaurant and Bar is a gem in Sacramento. The food is flavorful, well seasoned, comforting, and generously portioned, and the staff are warm and welcoming. If you love Creole comfort food, this place is definitely worth checking out.“

“Great neighborhood tap house with amazing pizza and a full bar!“

“Today I had a chicken, fries, and Mac N cheese with chicken bites. Chicken sandwich was really good, really good chicken. Fries was meh, nothing special. Now the Mac N Cheese with chicken bites was fire! 🔥🔥 definitely became an instant favorite. Definitely recommend this place. Good place to hangout with friends and have some drinks.“

“🙂👍 Comedy night is a blast!“

“I am excited to have a restaurant like this in Sacramento. It felt like I was near the coast. I love the decor and the vibe.

My friend and I shared the mahi mahi aguachile and the red snapper. The aguachile was really good. The snapper was okay, but I was looking for more flavor.

I will be back to try some other dishes, so many of them sounded good.“

“One Star- The food was not what I expected. The flavors of Italy was not there. The seafood pasta- clams and Musscles, we undercooked, shrimp and scallops were low quality and bland. 0 flavor. Sauce was very lacking in flavor. Couldn't tell if there was garlic in it or not. The bread had a distinct hint of burnt flavor on the back of my tounge. Not sure if you need to request bread or parmesan or what but I saw lots of people getting extra service. I definitely won't be back and maybe thats the point of giving some folks bad food or service is so their kind won't come back? Who knows but mission accomplished. I nor anyone I know will be back.“

“.25 games, good beers, etc.“

“Me gustaria Que pusieran MAs cumbia y menos salsa 💃 pero me encanta ir a vailar ahi 😍🥰“

“The food is amazing. The veggie quesadillas are out of this world. If you are looking for a great drink, visit Stacy at the bar. We have been here quite a few times and have never been disappointed. We have had 2 events catered and everyone loved the food. Thank you for the great food and service!“

“Very new to the area from Dana Point. Found this establishment online. A quaint, clean and organized bar. Hallie, bartender was hospitable, and made great recommendations. The buffalo sauced wings were the best I ever had...really. Beer was cold and local patrons were friendly. I highly recommend this place if you're not from the area and not sure where to go. Great job team. I'm looking forward to the next visit.“
