Food was good. The duck could use some type of sauce. The sweetbreads was excellent. The service was also excellent I dont think my water glass was ever half full Dine in: Yes Outdoor seating: Yes Takeout: Yes … More
Based on my first visit, I will give this place a 3.5 stars. For the positive, the services was great. However, when I told my server that the cocktail I order was not tasting good and that it would go better with another bourbon, rather than offering to change, he just said, maybe you order another one. That was not a great start although he recovered for the rest of the meal. As an appetizer we ordered a paella salad, which had the rice undercooked. The rest of the meal was good but not memorable, which was not good for us as we heard this is one of the best places in Sac. Plus, the quality did not match the bill. Is not about the money, but when the food is not to standard but expensive, that does not seat well with me. Perhaps our expectations were too high. Perhaps we got them in an off day. Nonetheless, I will try this place again in the eventually of the off day and with lower expectations.
Great service, excellent food! Went here for an anniversary dinner, they surprised us with glasses of sparkling wine before our meal & a scoop of pomegranate Italian ice after. Definitely coming back here.
