Great food at a good value! Mikayla was amazing! She made our dining experience terrific!

Mikayla gave amazing customer service for a bar top dinner for two. From drinks to dinner every thing hit the nail on the head and she checked in with us very moment of the way. We loved that she had a sense of humor and guided us through our meal, meat cooked well, and fries to perfection! read more

We made reservations at Butcher and Barrel for my husband's birthday, and thankfully they were able to get us in on a Saturday at 7:30pm. The location is a little tucked away on K St close to DoCo, but we were still able to find street parking. The atmosphere is more casual than I typically expect for a steak house, so I was completely blown away when the quality of the food and drinks were on par with some of the best steakhouses I've ever been to! We had heard good things, but they exceeded expectations! The short rib croquets we ordered for appetizers were hearty and delicious. We also had the Cesar salad which was good. My mother-in-law and I ordered separate entrees - the lamb lollipops and the braised short rib. Of course, the star of the show was the 50 oz. Tomahawk Wagyu steak that my husband split with his sister and her husband. The menu says feeds two, but it fed three easily. It could probably stretch even further if you order the right sides. I got to taste it, and it was the highlight of the dinner. Tender, flavorful, and delicious! I definitely think we'll be back for future special occasions. The desserts were a nice way to cap off the night! We were so full that we didn't need them, but my husband got a complimentary dessert for his birthday. We decided to order a peach bread pudding g for the table. Totally scrumptious! Kaitlyn took great care of us all night! The service was great, and the food was even better. Couldn't have been more pleased with Butcher and Barrel! read more

It was such a nice treat my boyfriend for his birrhday! Staff were so nice and brought out a celebration ice cream plate and a candle! It was also busy during dinner, but the staff were attentive and quick! There was also music and basketball games playing in the background, but not overwhelming :) We ordered new york steak, ribeye, smashed potatoes, and mac&cheese. It was 10/10! I recommend adding the garlic butter on top of the steak. So delicious! read more

Great atmosphere and service! We booked this restaurant for a date night and it was a wonderful experience. We were greeted with a cute sign that said "date night done right", treated with complimentary bites of their bread with cherry compote and had a wonderful waitress (blonde, can't remember her name, but she was great). Would definitely recommend and go again! read more

Absolutely fell in love with this steakhouse. I came here with a couple friends for a nice dinner and was absolutely blown away. First the atmosphere is incredible dim lights, colorful it feels like an amazing fine dining experience. We tried out a couple of the menu items and none of them disappointed. The oysters were so fresh buttery, and that hint of lemon really sealed it all. The steaks were beautifully cooked, a perfect medium rare so Juicery it was just melt in your mouth. Goodness, I found to be perfectly seasoned. The drinks were also a whole experience. They were colorful, so beautiful to look at and tasted perfectly. Definitely got tipsy, but did not taste it at all, which was perfect for me. All in all would definitely be coming back here again. read more

This was a 10/10 experience. Perfect place for a nice steak dinner. First of the service was excellent. The lighting in the restaurant is perfect for a cute little date, especially with the light at your table. The steak was perfectly cooked and seasoned. The bread was super soft and buttery. The sides were the weakest part of the dinner, but still excellent. The potatoes were crispy yet soft on the inside. The Mac and cheese was creamy, but just okay flavor. read more

Went here for the second year in a row for their dine downtown menu. This was my top/most favorite place I tried last year and this year is still the same. We were recommended to make reservations for lunch so I did on a Thursday. It was not busy when we got here for lunch, so it was great. The place looks huge when it's empty and it was nice and quiet for lunch. My coworkers and I all opted for the DD menu. We all got the steak bites appetizers to start, and they got the steak entree while I did butter chicken for variety and so we can all try the full menu. I preferred the steak over the chicken, but the chicken was not bad at all. In fact, it was really juicy and moist, but the steak had more flavor. For dessert, I got the orange Pana Cotta and the coworker got the bread pudding. Both were really good, but I liked the Panna Cotta more. Our server was great and attentive as well. We had a choice of still or sparkling water and we all opted for sparkling. Her recommendation for the DD menu was spot on. Great place and great service. Food is excellent as always. read more

I 100% enjoyed my meal and my experience at Butcher & barrel. Firstly we had a reservation for 8:15 and unfortunately i was the only person on time, the rest of my party strolled in about 20-30 minutes after me but the host and waitress were all so accommodating and did not have any issue with that at all! The host allowed me to sit at the table they had ready for us and wait for my party. The waitress asked did i want to order drinks or wait for the rest of my party. I ended up just getting water and waiting for the rest of my party. When everyone got there it took about 10 minutes for everyone to figure out what they wanted to eat, and what drinks we wanted, the waitress came to take our order. She was so lively and friendly. She Explained the menu & the questions that we had (which were a lot haha) & never seemed annoyed or bothered. It was about a party of six of us and everyone said she was such a good waitress.. we ordered a little bit of everything we got a steak. A margarita. We had some fries, the spinach dip, I got a tequila flight with additive free tequila. I did want to mention that they carry a lot of additive free alcohol, which I definitely appreciated. Wr also got a salmon plate with mashed potatoes on the side. My grandma was even able to get some hot tea. My dad who is a steak connoisseur said this was one of the best steaks he had in Sacramento. It was seasoned so well and cooked perfectly exactly how he asked, which was medium rare the salmon was just as good, It was flavored so perfectly. It tasted like it just came out of a home cooked kitchen. The chef actually ended up coming from the back and shaking all of our hands and thanking us for dining he also sent out a plate of focaccia bread with mushrooms and some type of gravy sauce on top, which was so divine. The whole staff at Butcher and barrel were so welcoming and nice so I just wanna say good job on that when you can dine somewhere and the food and the service is top-tier that's a place you will go back again. Also, I love the vibe of the place. It gives a really cute laid-back type of ambience, but goes along with where they have the restaurant placed in downtown Sacramento. I feel like the prices were on par with what you will find at this level of a restaurant for everything that we got. There was 6 of us which included alcohol the bill came out to $530 plus tip so we ended up spending around 600 and something dollars total and everyone was happy with that. We will definitely be back here. Good job butcher and barrel. read more

Met friends here for Dine Downtown and sat at the bar for happy hour while we waited. Happy Hour is only served at the bar fortunately there are two bars lol. Although there isn't a huge selection if food or drinks we had the sliders $12 a Nitty's Cider $5 and house wine $7. They were out of house wine so we had Doua which I s normally $15 per glass. Our bartender was friendly and informative. We moved to our table for dinner where Daniel provided excellent service. Between the four of us we sampled everything on the Dine Downtown menu and everything was good. The flank steak was a large portion and surprisingly tender. The cranberry bread pudding was favored over the panna cotta and the appetizers were a toss up. I would really like to come back and try the house burger which sounds delicious for $22. Overall we really enjoyed our experience and the DD menu was delicious and affordable. read more

Had a reservation for a Saturday night, it was busy! My steak was SO good. Melt in your mouth. Cooked to a perfect medium. The peppercorn sauce was very good. And the shamshed potatoes were simple, yet flavorful. I was thinking about that steak for the next couple of days. Whenever I'm back in SAC, I would definitely come back here. My coworker that I was with got some kind of fancy burger, but after he saw my steak, he said, "I should have ordered that." ha -- although, he was very happy with his burger, too. read more

This was my 44th birthday dinner and I loved it! The atmosphere can be dressed up or down and you will comfortable either way. Make sure to have a resy or you will have a wait or have to eat at the bar. We started with apps and drinks. My fireside margarita was so good and I'm not a drinker. We got the fried burrata with focaccia and it was delish!! My husband got a BMB Old Fashioned and the pour was generous. The chef gave us a mushroom focaccia app and it was so good! For entrees we got the New York strip, 14oz ribeye and the lamb chops. As sides we got mashed potatoes, smashed potatoes and button mushrooms. The potatoes were ok but those mushrooms they were amazing! I could eat them everyday! They gave me a sparkler and sorbet for dessert. Dinner really wasn't too expensive either! We will be back!! Thanks for an awesome birthday dinner!! read more

This was a great experience- we came for the $45 fixed menu (appetizer, entree, dessert). Sacramento dine week. I'm so happy we chose butcher and barrel- the waiters and staff were all very kind and the food was good I ordered the acorn squash soup and WOW!! That alone was so delicious. Then we ordered the steak which was really well done, but the sauce was extremely overwhelming (picture 2) and spicy. I then asked for a template (picture 1) and it was better The tiramisu dessert was not good honestly... very dry , the other desserts were sold out so that was the only option 3.5/5 read more

Third time visiting this place, and it's always spot on. We started with the fried burrata appetizer, which was really good--the sauce had a little kick that made it perfect. The kids ordered the butcher's burger with fries, and the fries were seasoned with garlic and absolutely yummy. I had the Impossible Burger with a salad, which was surprisingly really good, and my husband loved his steak as usual. I didn't catch our server's name, but she was exceptionally good--attentive, friendly, and made the experience even better. We'll definitely be back again. read more

The family took me to this steakhouse last night, nice vibe in restaurant, two bars real open seating for guests. The staff very helpful if you have a question about the meal or drinks. Our server was "Brandon", I feel he gave us a 100% , so a great waiter for this type of restaurant. One of my boys tried the whiskey, was prepared very well, the food overall was good, pricey but good and presented nice. Few downsides is parking of course because of where it is located (allow a little extra time) and the overall crazy nature of K street at night when they have a random music concert next door to the restaurant. Not the restaurant's fault , but something to be aware of. read more

This place is a must-visit! Perfect for both large groups and intimate dinners, the entire experience felt elevated from start to finish. The service was outstanding, and the staff's recommendations were spot on, they really know their menu. :) The steak was the star of the night, cooked perfectly and packed with flavor in every bite. I'm already planning my next visit (the airline chicken is calling my name!). The location is also ideal, making it easy to grab drinks before or after dinner and enjoy everything Sacramento has to offer. read more

Came in with a group of friends during lunch time. The place was empty so we were quickly seated. The ambience was nice. It felt like the place was reserved just for us. I didn't like when the server came over and made a comment. She said that we were looking at the dinner menu so she wanted to give us the lunch menu instead. She said she "saw the expression on our faces" and that "the lunch menu should be much better." As if implying we couldn't afford the dinner menu. I just didn't like that initial vibe. She did try to be helpful and shared her knowledge on the menu. I appreciated her giving us time to explore the menu before deciding what we wanted to eat. We tried the fried burrata. The focaccia bread was soft and bouncy. The wild mushroom poutine was delicious. The sauce was flavorful while it was spread across a bed of fries. I tried the hamburger. The meat was good. I wasn't a fan of the bread. It easily crumbled while I was eating it. I liked that they're a farm to fork restaurant so they used local ingredients. read more

Where do I start. The dining room is blindingly bright, this is a restaurant not a sleazy used car lot, someone clearly hasn't thought about atmosphere. My steak was unevenly cooked, which is a fundamental failure for any restaurant worth its salt. The plates were poor quality with a bizarre texture, making it nearly impossible to cut cleanly. The staff were friendly enough, but disengaged going through the motions rather than actually hosting. Then there's the wine list. Stocking $1,900 a bottle wines is a vanity exercise that serves almost no one. That shelf space would do far more work stocked with exceptional wines at accessible price points -- you'd sell more, satisfy more guests, and stop leaving people frustrated with the single, limited option available by the glass. It reads like a list curated for ego, not for the customer. Potential is there. But right now, the execution is letting everything down. read more

Visited December 17th..see my receipt as always. I have been wanting to try this place in Sacramento! It's a short walk to DOCO and next to the outdoor skating rink. It's very large inside with 2 full bars and plenty of seating. I could see groups of friends coming in after a game and having some food and drinks. We ordered the fried burrata with focaccia. It was nicely done and the sauce on the plate for dipping was delicious ! It had a hint of spice ( chili oil). The lady bartender was so sweet and she showed us how they make their own special old fashioned! The owner, Kevin, was there and he was very hospitable. You can tell he takes pride in his restaurant! I like that they have some unique dishes to try as well as burgers and steaks. They are always updating their menu which is refreshing to see!See the picture of their awards! Great experience in a friendly atmosphere! Will definitely be back! read more

We chose Butcher & Barrel for a team dinner, and there were 11 of us in attendance. The Wagyu Ribeye was outstanding, and our server, Matthew, provided excellent service throughout the evening. Overall, we had a great experience and enjoyed the meal. During dinner, the Operations Manager, Michael, stopped by our table to introduce himself and let us know he was available if we needed anything. He checked in with us multiple times throughout the evening, which was appreciated. However, the experience ended on a disappointing note. As we were leaving, we asked about having our parking validated and were told that nothing could be done because they had no validation tickets available. While the food and service were excellent, after spending approximately $2,500 on dinner, we expected that an Operations Manager would have the authority or flexibility to offer some alternative solution. And the way he spoke to his staff was not very nice. Unfortunately, that final interaction overshadowed an otherwise enjoyable evening and left our group feeling that this would likely be a one-time visit. read more

Celebrated my Birthday dinner here and I ordered the steak and bone marrow. I must say the service was outstanding. My server made sure my bone marrow had a lot of marrow since my second order that came in was just mostly the bone. She went back and told the chef to give me a more succulent marrow and didn't charge me for the second bone marrow that barely had anything in it. Atmosphere is very tasteful aesthetically. A very nice atmosphere to dine for a celebration or just a nice date night dinner in downtown Sac. Definitely would take my gf back here for a dinner date if I stop by in the area again. read more

My business partner and I celebrated our 12 years on 4/1 at Butcher and Barrel. Kendra took care of us and we got to Meet the owner...Kevin:) We started with a filet sliced for an appetizer and it was perfection. Then came the star of the show...the tomahawk. Oh my!!!! Cooked perfectly and all the sauces were amazing(on the side). Kevin was a great host and spent the right amount of time telling us about his passion for serving people, Sacramento, and family:)!! French fries were perfectly crisp and amazing. Asparagus and shrooms were perfectly cooked and seasoned. The bar had one of the best whisky selections around! Truly a treat and worth it!!!

Here to compliment our experience with B&B on Valentine's Day. We booked on open table, for two. We liked the options for the pre fixed menu. We arrived around 9:25pm, we had a late reservation @9:45pm. We sat at the bar and we were informed that apparently we had booked our dinner at the bar (which we didn't mean to) , the host said she couldn't promise us but if we could wait, we'd have more of a chance to be seated at a table. We took our chances, sat at the bar and had a few glasses of wine by a super kind bartender, we waited about 30 minutes and we were able to get a table. They were so quick to clean up and accommodate those waiting. The food came out quickly after ordering and delicious. Only bummer was they ran out of mashed potatoes, but everything was great. The steaks were cooked to perfection, mushrooms and mac and cheese sides were great. We were really full by the time dessert came but the chocolate mousse was really tasty and airy! ** I really want to highlight our experience with all the staff members, with us coming in so late, and honestly people watching as we sipped our wine, we couldn't help but notice how amazing all the ladies were. Truly. The two bartenders working last night right at the small bar next to the entrance, so friendly and welcoming. They were tired, it had been a long day for the staff I'm sure, but everything single woman who refilled our waters, wine, brought out appetizers and the rest of dinner, bussed the tables next to us, they all did it with a smile. Our server (didn't catch her name) was really kind and helpful. We left full of love, steak, and couldn't stop raving about the feeling of gratitude to visit a restaurant with staff like that. We will absolutely be back soon. Thank you again ! read more

I didn't know this upscale place was in downtown. I went for 2025 dine downtown. The place is elegant but chill. We had a hard time finding parking but the host ensure we wouldn't loose our reservation. We didn't have to wait and got seated. The dine downtown menu was great! The steak tartare was good, wasn't what I was expect but yummy with the white sauce. The flank steak was good, you had to make sure to get creamy horseradish with it. The best part was the Cara Cara Panna cotta! Sooo lovely and soo good! Off the regular menu, we got the fried bureta cheese! That was soo good! It was paired with toasted bread. The seasonal veggie was Brussels sprout with promogrante and balsamic vinaigrette glaze! Soo good! I would totally go back for the fried bureta!!!! read more

We decided to try Butcher and Barrel for dine downtown week and were pleasantly surprised. There was a wait so we opted to sit at the bar but the service was great. The prime flank steak entree was slightly underwhelming and one note, but the steak was cooked perfectly medium rare as ordered.

What a beautiful restaurant! We started with the hot artichoke dip and had the waiter uncork our wine (for $30). The artichoke dip was delicious. ThiS restaurant specializes in steak options but I opted for the lamb pops that included a bed of sautéed kale and Baby potatoes and also ordered a side of warm and savory creamed spinach. Both were excellent and plentiful. I also shared dessert, vanilla ice cream with an espresso to pour over - was just perfect. The service was excellent and our server was very attentive. Parking is typical downtown, will need to pay for parking on the street or nearby lots but must walk to the restaurant as the entrance is on K Street where cars are not allowed. I plan to return to try there steak. read more

Ive eaten at this place twice & also a former employee. The first time I visited was near their first year of operation and i got a steak sandwich and beef tartare. Im not sure if those are still menu items. The second time was with the oyster pic as i had an off day and decided to try the happy hour! Very good and fresh oysters i could knock back a dozen more realistically :) The owner Kevin is extremely nice and understanding. As for all other management staff.. inconclusive. The ambience of this place is a little dim with lights on every table. Very clean, service needs a little help & Food wise I wish there were more poultry options :) other than that pretty solid place. read more

This is one restaurant I have wanted to try since moving to Sacramento. I have seen it on DoorDash and Uber Eats but have never been able to process an order even when it says Delivery Available. I placed an order for Delivery and it didn't go through for similar items on their menu. I spoke to the hostess I'm assuming who suggested I place a pick up order instead. The entire point of delivery service and advertising on a delivery app. is to deliver your food. This restaurant has been on DoorDash for at least 4 or 5 months and I have encountered the same issue with my order not going through. However this time we decided to try PICKUP to see if our order would go through...IT DID! The order was processed we started driving downtown to have the order cancelled! A $102 order canceled with us halfway to the restaurant. It's one thing for the order to not process and you are not charged but another when you are charged. I call the restaurant only to find out they don't process any delivery order and the menu is out of date and they no longer serve Short Ribs or Split Pea Soup. The person I spoke to called the GM to see if there was anyway to accommodate us. There was no apology from the GM or offer to make something else for us to pick up instead. We were halfway to the restaurant. A gesture of goodwill would have been to offer similar meal items at a discount or one free with the purchase of another item. It was obvious the gentleman on the phone wanted to help but his hands were tied. I explained to him these menus have been up on three apps for months advertising delivery and pickup. It is not the responsibility of the individual apps to go through and see who does and does not deliver. The ultimate responsibility is the GM to ensure they are advertising the proper menus, not advertising delivery when they don't and removing the restaurant from these apps. Sadly this was a disappointing experience and let down finding out the menu was different than advertised on the apps. The prices are high end so you expect a certain level of customer service and quality control on all levels. I want to point out Marco is a gem. I can't say anything for the food, atmosphere or much else. read more
