The Silver Lining

What a wonderful experience!Fun, welcoming and engaging. The bartenders and the owner are first rate and create an enjoyable and welcoming environment. I have been waiting for a piano bar in Sacramento for a long time. So happy the Silver Lining is here!The website listed food options, but there were none available the night we went. The cocktails, particularly the espresso martini are delicious !

We checked out this cute little piano bar while pregaming before dinner and a concert last night! We walked in and were immediately greeted by the bartender on duty, William. We ordered The Die Hard Old Fashioned, Anchor + Tree Carajillo and a few beers. I love a good espresso martini and the Carajillo was better than any I've had. It was made with tequila instead of vodka and it was so smooth and it's even made with the coffee from their business neighbor! I could have had 4 of these - they were that good!We didn't try any of their food, but the menu looked and sounded delicious - especially their hot dog! They have live music and a band was setting up when we were leaving! It seems like a pretty busy spot and I'm glad we stopped in to check them out.I'll definitely be in again for that Carajillo!

Affordable drinks. Pleasant staff. It's an easy going atmosphere with some live music sometimes. When I went it was a mix of different people, so if you like diverse crowds, The Silver Lining won't make you feel alienated.

I love owner William. Super talented piano player and he actually gives a damn about the customers. The interior design is amazing! Reminds you of Miami and the super oil art on the wall. Two pianos for dueling pianos and the sound equipment is pristine. Super high quality shure mics for karaoke! A true gem and eventual staple of the midtown area!

The mai tai was delicious. Strong enough but tasty. The ombiance is nicely renovated, feels fresh. It is an elegant cocktail bar with not many food options but they said they have a bottomless mimosa brunch on Sundays which I am excited to try out in the future.

What a fun find!! We got downtown early for a dinner reservation and were looking for someplace cool to hang for a while! A young person saw us looking lost and asked if we needed help (he works at the Senate and was very proud of that , as he should be! Anyhoo, he literally led us up the street to The Silver Lining. We were greeted warmly by William, the bartender and an owner. He made us the margarita and the jungle something.... Both were so tasty! Not too sweet and cold! We will def being going back for drinks and music!

Dueling piano, Kareoke and great ambiance and vibes! The bar tender was incredibly kind and funny. Can't wait to go back!

She is a beautiful spot! I mean the purple, the lighting, the grey furniture. This place was put together with thought and care. She is gorgeous!The drinks are amazing. Good solid pour of high quality alcohol, and I'm not talking about the top shelf, but even the well is good solid alcohol. I recommend the whiskey, but that's cuz I'm a whiskey drinker.The service is great. The bar staff are friendly and engaging. The way the bar is set up it is also easy for the staff to serve you, so that is amazing.Highly recommend!

Drinks were nice, but no snack options - desserts or munchies would be nice. Service staff is good. We went on a Friday night. Could have been a fun atmosphere, the piano guys were fun and interactive. However, the selections they played/sang were not good. They should just say no to obscure or ugly songs. Also, say no to songs they can't perform well - ruined the vibe. We left early.

Walking into this place, you can tell it was a special place. Went up to the bar and ordered from William, to which he was a great bartender. Easy to talk to and engaging. Went there on karaoke night and the singers in there were so talented. The ambiance was nice, and relaxed, and it was original decor, as in decor that I haven't seen before in Sac! As I was talking with patrons, come to find out, William is the owner! This place is a great place to lounge, relax and just soak in good vibes. I went on a Wednesday and it was pretty good for a weeknight! I will definitely frequent this place as I see they've got great events happening!
