A plus for this restaurant's location in the heart of Old Sacramento, with a lovely sunny terrace facing the yellow bridge over the river. The view is amazing and the prices very affordable. The sandwiches are hearty and accompanied by homemade chips. There are also great salads, and American classics like the lobster mac & cheese, a perfect blend of flavors. A special weekend brunch is also available, at a slightly higher price but with excellent quality. Inside, the decor is simple, but you'll come for the view.

Ordered the Monte Crisco and fresh fruit. Took one bite and found a hair ????. Let the waitress know. She brought me back another plate. It was fried too long and did not taste good. She did not take anything off the bill and I didn't realize until after we left I never got my fresh fruit.

The steak bland, was decent the rest was excellent. I would have given four stars but they overcooked my steak. They did a great job correcting this issue and I was given a new one. The cocktails were great. The peach cobbler and Tequila key lime pie was fantastic!

We came here the weekend after Thanksgiving Day (11/25/2023). The food was good, and our waitress Christa was good. We were seated outside in the covered area. We spent about $100 (I still have the receipt) for the two of us for lunch. I thought the place was good and perhaps we might come back whenever we are in Sacramento. The one star rating happened after we ate. We walked to the deck area, and took a couple of photos of the bridge using our phones. This guy (I’m guessing he’s a manager or some supervisor) started yelling at us that we can’t be there. Blah blah blah. He treated us like a couple of little kids. He then proceeded to berate another employee for not locking the (double) doors. We came via the covered area and not through the double doors. That was such a turn off. We spent some good money and then be treated that way. The 3 service rating is not for the waitress. She did well. That “manager” made it a 3 for service and an overall rating to 1. I can spend money somewhere else.

It was my first time & I was celebrating a birthday. When coming in I let the waitress know I was there for my friends birthday & she pointed "Make a left around the corner." The friendliness was for sure not there. Our server was okay. The cheese bread was AMAZING. I don't know if I'd come back.

You can sit where you can see the water, but I did not. They didn't offer it to me, maybe you need to ask. I had the Jambalaya and I was surprised how very good it was!! I would have it again~
