The Scene
It's the quintessential neighborhood restaurant. Everyone who frequents this spot has a favorite item, and there would be an uprising in Sacramento if the menu ever completely changed. Brunch is particularly popular, so arrive early before the hungry crowds descend.
The Food
A potpourri of exotic and sensual selections such as coconut prawns with orange-mustard vinaigrette and jerk ribs are interspersed with comfort foods like meatloaf and roasted chicken ravioli. For breakfast, luscious berry griddlecakes loaded with fruit start any day perfectly. The delicious Oregon blue cheese salad--spicy, boneless Buffalo chicken, toasted walnuts and crumbled blue cheese atop crisp romaine lettuce--is a meal in itself. While both the grilled salmon and caper aioli of the Columbian panini are delicious on their own, the flavors don't quite work together. For a stunning finale, the delectable chocolate paté is the only way to end the meal.

My Husband and I decided to give this place a try. Well we did not have reservations, not even sure if they take reservations. We waited for probably 10-15 min before someone even noticed us, then we had to wait about 30-40 min for a table. We almost left. When were were finally seated it took even longer to get a menu. Anyway as you can tell it is a loooong wait for your food. But when it arrived it was very good. My husband had a cocktail and I coffee. The coffee however tasted terrible, it was luke warm and very burnt tasting. Not sure yet if we will be back

I love this restaurant's panini sandwiches. I've strayed away from my favorite on occasion and was fairly satisfied.

The food is always good here; I've never had a bad meal. I've never had a worse bloody mary thought. The service is spotty; I've had some great service and some awful service. There almost always is a wait on busy nights or for brunch, but the food is worth it.

What to Drink:
A bevy of specialty martinis are some of the best in town. Try a chocolate martini as an alternative to the standard cake or pie.
