The Most Delicious Comfort Food in Sacramento

Ashley’s Country Kitchen

★★★★☆ 4 (431) • $$

"First off. Hopping atmosphere and friendly staff (Maria was our server). Second, when ordering extra crispy hash browns, she said they now can deep fry them... um, yes please! They came out super crispy and almost buttery in the middle. The chicken fried steak was traditional, with pounded meat and a GREAT crust. It was a bit tough, but very good. The gravy, however, is incredible. Definitely will be ordering biscuits and gravy next time. My husband got chile verde omelette and loved it. I will be back for sure. I need to try the Monte Cristo..."

Coloma Club

★★★★☆ 3.6 (99) • $

"We stopped here for breakfast and were not disappointed. The waitress was very friendly and led us to the patio where we wanted to sit. Lovely environment with tons of plants. I ordered an omelette and my husband ordered eggs with corn beef hash. Both were huge and delicious. We would definitely stop here again if we're in the area."

Skip's Fish & Chicken

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (125) • $$

"Came in last week to have a quick lunch with my husband and it did not disappoint!! I will start by saying I'm not much of a fast fried food kinda girl but I 100% will keep coming back to this restaurant for just that! We went shortly after they opened so the restaurant was very clean, there was a few people there before us but the young lady at the front was quick to service us. I ordered the loaded fries and my husband the catfish. I was only able to eat half of mine and was grateful to be able to bring some home for later. Ever since we went last week I've been craving it and can't wait to go back.To the young lady in the front thank you for your great customer service and to the cook in the back thank you for making everything so delicious and fresh !"

Tin Roof Wine Cafe

★★★★★ 4.9 (33)

"We popped in before some wine tasting. My hubby and I split the soup and grilled cheese. The owner was great. Happy to split it for us and frankly when the soup came out I didn't look split. A very good size tasty bowl of tomato soup. Perfect for a fall day. The establishment is clean and the staff were super friendly. I could tell that this place is made with love and the owners clearly care about quality service and food. We will certainly return. Thank you for a great experience."

Q1227 Restaurant

★★★★☆ 4.2 • $$$

"We dined at their old location about a dozen times now and love their food and staff. This is our first time to the new, Roseville Galleria location, and boy what a change they've made. They went from fancy and cozy, to chic, almost Vegas-like. It's absolutely beautiful inside.For our first visit to the new and freshly remodeled location, I decided on the Chef's Table Experience. This exclusive, off menu, culinary delight, gives the chefs a way to express their creativity and culinary skills. The Chef's Table is $229pp and located right in front of the kitchen's window. This gives you and guest(s) the best seat in the house to witness the "heart" of the restaurant's operation and success.The menu is Chef's choice, made with the freshest and most likely, local ingredients. This is what we had:Halibut and Scallop Crudo - citrus aguachileThis was amazingly fresh and not fishy at all. My wife doesn't eat raw fish, so I had both portions of this after she tried a tiny piece. I guess the texture wasn't there for her, but I sure enjoyed it!Grilled Hearts of Romaine - parmigiano reggiano / balsamic vinaigrette / pine nutsThis tasted great with the acidic balsamic, earthy pine nuts and char.Garlic Cheese Loaf - garlic / cheese / parsley / aged balsamic / chili flakes / evooThis is our simple GOTO item on the menu. We always have to have this, especially since Rio City Cafe closed down. Simple, yet wonderful and comforting. A must have to start your meal here.Black Linguine Truffle Pasta - white borchii truffle cream sauceThis was simply amazing! Please add this to the regular menu. It was rich, creamy and tasted like a million bucks!!Surf and Turf - Durham Ranch American Wagyu Flat Iron Steak and Sweet Gulf Water Shrimp with Jonah Crab ClawsThis steak was melt in your mouth BUTTER! So tender, flavorful and cooked to a perfect medium-rare. The shrimp was poached perfect and complimented will with the crab claws. You can't go wrong with this combination!!Opera Torte - almond / coffee buttercream / ganacheThis was layered with many textures from the bits of almonds. to the creamy ganache and buttercream to the crust. Almost sinful.This is a GEM! You can't go wrong with anyting on the menu. And this Chef's Table experience was an amazing experience. Being able to try Chef Q's creative offmenu items was definitely a night to remember. Make your reservation NOW!!"

The Grotto

★★★★☆ 4.3 (15)

"The Grotto is a tasty addition to Rio Linda- a place many might consider Sacramento's backwater. As of this writing, The Grotto has only been open about a week... so while they are still working things out, the food really shines. THE PROS: The ambiance is like a fine dining cafeteria. Linens and real table settings in a large casual space. Not stuffy at all, and no paper napkins or plastic forks. The food was delicious. All the food, including the pasta was fresh. Sauces were on point. . Our pasta came with an oversized hunk of crusty garlic bread. The prices were in-line with any mid-town eatery, each of our entrees was in the low $20s. A nice touch is that a cup of hot fresh "cowboy" coffee is only $2THE CONS: While not really an issue, the staff is new and still coming up to speed, so for now allow a bit of time and grace with your meal. Deserts were quite tasty, but they due run about $10 apiece. THE BOTTOM LINE: Yes, eat here. If you are anywhere near Rio Linda, it really is nice to have a place that knows the locals actually do appreciate food that you don't eat in a car, but that jeans and a hoodie are not a problem. There really is a little something for every taste, and it should only get better over time"

Stagecoach Restaurant

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (455) • $$

"We came here on Sunday 1130am and the wait time is about 15mins. The toilet is so huge and clean, which I think is a plus! we ordered Caramel Apple Crepe, Burito and Grilled cheese sandwich from kids menu. The best Burrito i ever had and the Caramel Apple Crepe is delicious too! My daughter manage to eat the Grilled Cheese by herself, it serve with either milk, juic3 or soda, we ordered orange juice which is not too sweet, which is another plus!"

Louisiana Heaven

★★★★☆ 4 (325) • $$

"I was hesitant on coming here because of the mixed reviews. However, Louisiana haven't did not disappoint! Everything was cooked perfectly. We got the catfish shrimp and Fried Chicken. Nothing was overly greasy. Everything was perfectly seasoned and cooked well. We got the sides of the collard greens, potato salad and red beans and rice. Everything was really good. The greens were slightly salty. That's the only nitpick I can give on everything that we had. The cornbread looks weird but it tasted really good. It was a fluffier lighter cornbread that I'm used to the more dense kind of cornbread, but I was pleasantly surprised the catfish was super meaty and the portions were all very generous. We couldn't finish everything for the sides. I also got the potato salad and that was really good as well as the red beans and rice. Overall We were very satisfied!"

Range Kitchen & Tap

★★★★☆ 4.3 (670) • $$

"Happy Hour Specials. Tuesday - Saturday 3pm - 6pm. $1 off all craft beer, $6 house wine, $3 off all pizzas and $2 off all appetizers. There, posted it. Just in case someone searches for Happy Hour in the Yelp app.Our second time here. First was during the earlier days back in 2018 when Range Kitchen was fairly new. Didn't quite make a mark on us, which is probably why it took us 6 years to give them another try.Glad we did. This time, the food and drinks impressed us.Having a rotating menu with beer and wine for alcohol options, they keep it simple. Happy Hour Red (Paso Robles Cabernet) $6 and a Hazy IPA were my drinks. Wife wanted a cocktail, but they don't have any.The dishes we got were the Deviled Eggs, Bison Sliders, Beef Sliders and The Forager Pizza.The cheesy & lean bison burgers and the truffle pizza are very good points for us to come back.Being seated at the bar, we were witness to how the pizza and other baked dishes were prepped. The crew was friendly and engaging. See you next time RK&T."

1893 By Broderick

★★★★☆ 3.7 (9)

"We come once a week to see our favorite waitress, Kristina. She is sunshine and happiness wrapped in one. She provides great service with a smile. Service is great and so is the food. Creatures of habit, we usually get the same things...the Johnny Cash burger and Cobb salad. Kid got the buttermilk fried chicken and loved it. The tacos and the steak salad (comes with fries and fried onions on top) are great. Fries and drink selection are also good. Go in on a Monday or Wednesday night and ask for Kristina...she will brighten your day."

Taqueria El Puerta

★★★★★ 4.6 (27)

"Amazing quality tacos. My favorite was the chicken street taco. My partner really loved the al pastor street taco and we liked all the salsas from the salsa bar. I will definitely be back to try a burrito next time. The service was very fast and friendly. It was clean and comfortable inside. Lots of parking too. If you can, support this new business!"

Hot Off The Griddle

★★★★☆ 4.4 • $$

"Hot off the griddle, onto a plate, and right into our stomachs! This is one of my family's favorite spots for breakfast and lunch. Their food is consistently delicious, no matter what we've ordered, from fluffy pancakes to patty melts. Be mindful and try not to let your eyes be much bigger than your stomach though, because their portions are no joke!They have a very cute "country kitchen" feel and it is always very comfortable. It almost makes me feel like I'm back in my grandma's kitchen, eating her home cooked food. It can get super crowded, especially on the weekends, but it is always worth the wait and they're usually fairly quick to get you in and seated. The waiters and waitresses are a huge part of why it is always a phenomenal experience as well though, because they are tentative, kind, and all seem to be quite friendly. They always greet us with a positive attitude and fantastic service!"

Dine N Dash

★★★★☆ 4.1 (767) • $$

"If you know Colfax, CA then you know it's a tiny town on the way to or from Tahoe. It's cute, not a ton going on there. If you're adventurous you'll come upon Done N Dash. A beautiful restaurant with a bar that I'd like for my dining room table. That wood! Story for another time, back to my review.ALL of the staff are friendly, stylish and upbeat. The ambiance is delightful. Modern, gorgeous space.I'd suggest having a restaurant consultant or someone in the hospitality biz come and look at the space- it's a bit dis-jointed and needs some continuity. The food! The glorious food.My husband and I ordered the Prime Rib. It was the star of the show. Flavorful with or without the umami filled au jus and creamy horseradish. On its own, it was better Prime Rib than we found in the Bay Area for less than 1/3 of the price. Tasty sides of mashed and asparagus too!My Mom-in-love had the chicken sando and potato salad- huge portions and the next day I had 1/4 of the sandwich and some potato salad. It was dyne-o-mite!Overall this establishment is a winner! Not too hard on the wallet either!"

Tokyo Stop Sushi & Grill

★★★★☆ 4.4 (100) • $$

"When Tokyo Stop Sushi & Grill opened in Elk Grove/Laguna Creek, it was at the time California was still under the pandemic. I think this is one of the reasons they don't have dine-in options. They're a to-go-only restaurant. The restaurant is not far from my home. Less than 3-4 minutes drive. I should be here more often. My family and friends all have ordered lunch or dinner from Tokyo Stop before. But this is my first time ordering from them. The storefront looks very nice. The sign and the lights are perfect. The restaurant stands out from the stores next to them. The parking lot is big and easy to get parking very close to the restaurant too. I ordered the Teriyaki beef bowl. I didn't pre-order by phone or app. It takes them less than five minutes to have it ready for me. The lady who takes my order at the front desk is amiable and polite. The Teriyaki beef bowl is very good! The taste is perfect. The rice is perfectly cooked. The beef is delicious, even if it is a little overcooked. The amount of teriyaki sauce is just right. I enjoy my dinner even when I am not hungry. I'm sure I'll be back soon."

Hot Bunz

★★★★☆ 4.2 (370) • $$

"I found the burgers to be juicy and tasty. A little greasy for me but still yummy. They were a little larger than a slider size. I found the price to be a little on the higher side. Not bad but isn't one of my top favorites."

Hot off the Griddle

★★★★★ 4.5 (145) • $$

"Food was slightly above average for a breakfast place. Service was excellent. Indoor space was pretty generic."

We Be Brunchin

★★★★☆ 3.8 (5)

"Best vegan brunch in Sacramento! The new beer garden next door is cool to sit at and eat this delicious food! The brunch sandwich is the best. I don't know why people are leaving bad reviews saying there is no seating. There is literally a whole area for seating next to the line."

Zhangliang Malatang

★★★★☆ 4 (58)

"My first experience here will be far from my last. Fresh and delicious ingredients of all kind, rich broths, and a phenomenal array of spices and flavors to make it your own! Highly recommend!"

Greek Food Imports

★★★★★ 4.6 (379) • $$

"Been wanting to try their gyros for quite a while and saw there was a Groupon! Got the Groupon for 2 gyros (lamb not included) for about $13 which is pretty much BOGO. I ordered the chicken and the gyro itself was different from other gyros that I've tried, in a good way!! It was not too saucy and had feta cheese, walnuts, and some sort of fruit in it which was a great addition. It was pretty yummy! My bf and I both enjoyed the gyros. We also ordered a cheesecake and that was super delicious! Nice and creamy."

Cafeteria 15L

★★★★☆ 3.9 • $$

"We still enjoy their weekend brunch and Happy Hour Specials on M-F at 3-6 pm. They recently renovated the bar area and part of the dining area and it looks great. They can accommodate large parties with many tables which makes this place an ideal spot to meet up for large groups."

Skips Fish & Chicken

★★★☆☆ 3.2 (136)

"Came here for dinner purely out of convenience because we were next door, but I'm super glad we ended up here! We arrived at the same time behind two other people so we did have to wait about 20 minutes for our food, which isn't too bad for dinner time. Our food came out piping hot and fresh. I just picked the chicken bites with fries, with Skip's sauce. It was on their "value menu" so it's a smaller portion but it was still safisfying. They put some kind of seasoning on top that made it remind me of sour cream and onion chips, and it was so tasty! Loved the kick from the Skip's sauce too. On to the main event - the loaded fries!! My husband ordered these and I'm glad that he did because I totally missed it. I figured they were just going to be regular fries with chicken and sauce on top so that's why I didn't give it a second thought. When we opened the box I had no idea it was also topped with mac and cheese - game changer!! I was eyeing the mac and cheese on the sides menu but didn't see any meal options that came with a side so that's why I opted for that chicken bites meal. But these loaded fries were delicious - the mac and cheese on top is so cheesy and the chicken was so tender. I like all three sauces they put on it too - ranch, hot, and Skip's house sauce. The actual store is pretty spacious, mostly all 2-seater tables but there are a few larger booths in the side room that we were able to sit at. It's not the most enticing interior design but we were hungry so we stayed there to eat. I would probably just do takeout or DoorDash next time, but either way I will be getting the loaded fries again (and maybe try it with sweet potato instead!)."

Vechos Eatery

★★★★☆ 4.4 (52)

"We were out running errands and I wanted to try somewhere new so I used Google and found this place. Apparently they've only been in business for three months. I don't think the three people working there could've been any nicer and the food was excellent. Physically the place needs a little sprucing up but that will come with time.We ordered the French Onion Melt, the Prime Rib Dip, garlic fries, and the onion rings. Everything was seriously delicious and far exceeded our expectations.One of the owners shared that they just added breakfast to the menu so I asked to see the menu. Huge list of options!We will be back!"

"8/9/2024-Son grabbed the baby got bacon burger- all vegan on a brioche bun..He also wanted a milkshake- so picked the Willie Wonka shake..Shake was perfect .. not sure what was in it, but good..Burger was good..Glad he wanted me to try this spot.!"

Cluckin’ Good

★★★★☆ 4.2 (52) • $$

"Holy Cluck! Get down to Cluckin Good and place your orders for the Crispy Chicken. I've never had anything like it before. Think fried chicken a with a Thai twist on it. The cashier here told me it's dipped in two different batters before being fried. He also informed me there's a closer location for this restaurant located downtown. It's a ghost kitchen (no indoor dining) thanks for the alley oop man!The ambiance was pretty chill as there was Jazz music playing while I waited for my order. People in and out as most orders were takeout. My food was prepared fresh and it came out steaming, piping hot! I really enjoyed the dish as a whole; the cucumbers were fresh and had a nice crunch. The white rice was good but next time I'll probably do the a la carte crispy chicken ($22) and make my own at home. The consomé was so good it was like a chicken broth with green onions and I ended up drinking it at the end of my meal because I wasn't going to just throw it away lol. Finally be sure to try their Thai tea. It's a nice way to end the meal. Everything was not just good, it was Cluckin 'Good!"

Cluckin Good

★★★★☆ 4.2 (37)

"I'm a big fan of Hainanese chicken rice and was totally excited when I saw the business' pictures but was very disappointed with i picked up my order. When I opened the bag there was a very nice handwritten message of the plate cover but when I opened it, there was no skin on the chicken. This is a crucial part of Hainanese chicken. After that nothing mattered. Please either advertise with your pictures of you product or name it something else, not Hainan Chicken over Rice.btw - this is located inside Sactown Eats, a ghost kitchen."

Woodcreek Golf Club

★★★☆☆ 2.5 (115) • $$

"I came here for the first time a few weeks ago for my dad's friends son celebration of life. It is a very large establishment very clean atmosphere. It was very easy to find the staff was very efficient very helpful and we had a nice area to enjoy the celebration of life, this is a great place to go golfing great place to have events weddings, etc. it is conveniently located off of Wood Creek oaks very easy to find. I didn't get a chance to explore much since I was there for a celebration of life, but from what I could see it was a very large, beautiful establishment and I did see a lot people enjoying the golf area the room that was reserved was very large with lots available seating and the staff was very efficient at coming out and making sure all the food was filled making sure everybody was enjoying everything OK clearing off plates etc. this is definitely a nice place to look into if you're having an event nice very clean. I even use the restrooms while I was there. The restrooms were very clean smelled very clean and I always noticed this when I go to places because not all places are very efficient when it comes to having a nice clean restroom this place definitelyexceeded my expectations. I was very happy with the services received here if you're thinking about joining a golf club I would highly recommend checking out. Woodcreek great place friendly establishment great place to have an event. Great establishment altogether thank you Woodcreek Oak. You guys exceeded the expectations and we're very efficient and friendly. Thank you again. Have a happy safe Fourth of July and I'll see you again very soon :-) under different circumstances."

Mother

★★★★☆ 4.1 (891) • $$

"While I had known Mother was back in Sacramento I hadnt been able to visit. But thank goodness they are back with their staples and classics and just down the street from their previous location. The mushroom po'boy is always a great choice and the additions of the chips is chef kiss. The sandwich is a great size and easily shareable. The mushrooms are fried and seasoned in a great blend, and the lettuce and cucumbers are a fresh addition. The fried chips are light and crunchy with a seasoning that resembles BBQ chips. My partner ordered the special pasta on the menu and we ordered a side of potato wedges with a great dipping sauce. Staff was very nice and welcoming, checking in at the appropriate times."

Granite Rock Grille

★★★★☆ 4.3 (730) • $$

"Good old fashioned Country Cafe! Biscuits and gravy, Eggs and bacon, hot coffee and flap jacks! Saucy waitresses who can work, chew gum, and keep up a banter if solicited. Omelettes are big and so are all portions. Kitschy decorating and homey foods sums it up! Go!"

Double Back

★★★★☆ 4.3 (6)

"Let's just say the family run business is top notch. First off you taste the love in the food they do not skimp on portions the catfish has an awesome flavor definitely try if there's some left every flavor on there wings is super good can't go wrong with any of them. Now the peach cobbler spring rolls omg a must try. Staff is super friendly and willing to get you time to decide your order. Follow them on Instagram to find there location cause they do move from time to time. Check them out always support local businesses"

Pitch and Fiddle-Fair Oaks

★★★★☆ 3.8 (175) • $$

"Last Sunday was my first time to this location. And I was impressed but the abundance of tv's. No matter where you take you could easily see at least 2 or 3 tv's. They had every football game you could want on the tv's. So everyone was happy. Despite it being packed the service was also very attentive. I sat at the bar and had a few beers. The beer tap selection was great. My only gripe was the background of the beer menus was dark at the bottom and therefore you couldn't see the description of the two beers that were at the bottom of the screen. I would suggest a different background photo so its legible. I ordered Pitch friends which come with cheese and bacon. They were cooked and seasoned really well. However, I would have liked to have more cheese, it was mostly just on the top center. You can never been too generous with cheese. Overall a good experience and great place to watch football. I will be back."
