    Nachos were no cheese or sour cream.
    Caitlin S.

    I ordered from DoorDash today, and unfortunately my order was incorrect. I ordered the steak nachos, but they arrived with no cheese or sour cream. All of the black beans were piled at the bottom, and there was barely any salsa or steak on the nachos. I was really excited to try Chevy's again since it had been a long time, but I was extremely disappointed with the quality of my meal and my overall experience.

    Recently visited this location for happy hour. My watermelon margarita was delicious .The Zucchini was fried to perfection and paired with an avocado ranch sauce, very good ! I will be honest to say our waiter was all over the place talking too fast , lol , and rushing around . Anyway , our ladies group enjoyed the drinks , but there were very mixed reviews on the food which included a taco bar .. Until next time .. Cheers

    I've been here once with a friend and it was a fun experience. I love the outdoor seating by the river, you get to get fresh air while enjoying your meal. Our food was tasty and the service was good. I would come back again since it's been a while. I would say to plan ahead because parking can sometimes be a little tricky.

    Dessicated rock-hard lime slice on drink tonight!

    This restaurant could greatly benefit from the services of a gigantic power washer. The cutlery and glasses were dirty and stained. The menus were grimy, and at least two were stuck together with salsa. The whole building, including restrooms, seemed old, grimy, and tired. The food was meh, especially for the price. Actually, not even meh. Service was OK. We had a large party, so I guess it is expected that one person would not get their drink or their food when all the others did. The 20% gratuity is normal for large parties, but why was there an additional service charge? The food on my and my friend's plates had the skin of age on top. His tamale tasted frozen. My (cold) enchiladas were tasteless. The tostadas looked as if they had been sitting out too long. The photo shows the actual slice of lime with which the bar staff topped my pina colada this evening. No Mas, Chevy's. We will no longer drive our Chevy to the levee to consume your meals.

    I've actually only tried this place long ago in my college days and from there I didn't really remember much but now coming as a more mature adult I have to say it's actually a pretty decent place. Came here with a group of coworkers and the service was pretty good. They were very attentive to our orders and made sure to give us lots of refills. The ambience was pretty good there were still other people in the restaurant so I didn't seem super quiet the view of the river is also kind of cool lots of parking if you don't mind walking. The food we ordered was also pretty good I was surprised that everything tasted really well had lots of flavor, wish I grabbed a dessert but it was a work event so skipped it. I would recommend this place 100%

    This was my first time visiting this Chevy's to redeem my birthday meal. I loved that it was scenic and on the river. I ended up getting one of the custom entrees that allowed you to choose a taco, enchilada etc The service seemed a bit slow, even though there were seemingly available seats. We were waiting over 30 minutes to be seated on a Monday. They also didn't bring out their usual dessert/singing either. So while the ambiance was nice, the service could be stepped up a bit more.

    First of all, wow. The location could not be better. It's very unique in that it almost has a Louisiana bayou/ Xochimilco vibe going on. The river views are absolutely fantastic and could not be in a better place. The only downside is that the parking lot is small and cramped but you should be able to find a spot. Angelita gave amazing service. Her friendliness was so memorable I made sure to get her name. Our food came out rather quickly for a party of our size. The flavor of Chevy's is as close to authentic as you can get. It's a chain so the difference in flavors is going to be minimal. Overall, expect to walk out of here for about $25 a person and you should be good. The views are some of the best I have seen in Sac. Bottom line/TLDR: Angelita was a life saver

    Lisa was a great server. Went during the happy hour for margaritas! We throughly enjoyed our time on the river.

    Just say no. Seriously! For those that read my reviews, you know I'm not a fan of most chain restaurants, we decided to give Chevys a chance. I haven't been to this restaurant or location in years, so this is definitely the perfect opportunity I called ahead to see if they were busy, and to ensure that we would be able to be seated inside because it's still pretty cold in Sacramento. We were greeted by a confused host, who seated us at a dirty table. Before we actually sat down, we asked if we could have the table cleaned or be seated elsewhere. He ended up moving us to another table that was clean, but questionable. I'd asked about happy hour because it looks like this is one of the few places that has an extended happy hour menu which is always exciting for me We decided to forgo happy hour and just order our meals. They brought chips and salsa to the table. The salsa was incredibly bitter and watery and words cannot describe how bad it really was. The chips were stale, so it made for great combo ( insert major sarcasm) We had to ask for cutlery and napkins because none were placed on the table, as well as asking for water for the same reason. So far, Customer Service has been mediocre. We ordered the "steak "and the large three enchilada platter I will preface this by saying I'm not sure which one was worse. The steak: this has to be without a doubt, the worst piece of me that I've ever seen served at a restaurant. I don't even know what kind of beef this possibly could have been, but definitely was not one that should've been served. Don't let the looks for you. There is no seasoning on it, it tasted like shoe leather, and it made me seriously sad to have to try to eat it. The black beans tasted like someone opened a can and threw them on the plate. Just gross. I always look at rice as one of those indestructible foods. How does anybody really ruin rice?!? Well if you want to find out, this is a place to find out at. The enchiladas: it came with a chili relleno. I was really looking forward to trying this. Like Rice, how does anybody really mess this up. It's supposed to be cheesy and yummy and it was none of that. The actual chili that was used was still hard, I don't know what kind of batter they used, but this was like a floofy egg. It was thick, mushy, and just gross. There wasn't much cheese, and what was stuffed into the chili. I don't even know what that was. Yes, there's cheese or something that was very plastic. He tasting on top. But that's where it was on top. The enchiladas... I don't even know where to begin with us. They were completely inedible. The meat was absolutely horrible. The chicken, I don't even know what to say about it, because the sauce is over the enchiladas tasted like burnt tin. Are the pictures pretty of the food? Sure. But I'm telling you there's horrible things happening on these plates. Same rice and same beans and same bad experience. Overall, this is definitely been one of the worst meals that I've had at what should be a reputable restaurant. The one thing about chain restaurants, is that they're supposed to be consistency. If that's the case, I'm telling you right now, avoid this restaurant! This was over $60 experience gone wrong.

    THIS IS NOT ABOUT CHEVYS THEY WERE AMAZING! I was recently at Chevy's on the river and I had a very great visit; although, A man exposed himself to my girlfriend while she was sitting on the grass in the lower parking! I walk up to the man and ask what's up, he leaves with nothing to say obviously ashamed of what he's done! The so called disgrace of a man try's to block my camera and head back up to the restaurant which he worked at ( ROOSTERS) , which I followed him too. If roosters doesn't take proper measures to terminate this employee I will press charges, and take proper action with the BBB! This is the man right here! I don't take this lightly and you shouldn't either!

    STEAK & SHRIMP

    I rarely leave negative reviews, but this experience was incredibly disappointing. I ordered the steak and shrimp and specifically requested my steak medium well- medium rare When it first came out, it was well done, which happens sometimes. For the first time in my life, I politely asked if they could remake it. I was respectful to the staff and even apologized for sending it back because I know mistakes happen. Unfortunately, when they brought it back, it was obvious they hadn't cooked it any further at all. The steak came back looking essentially the same, with a cool, very rare center. It honestly felt like they either didn't remake it or simply sent it right back out without fixing the issue. I wasn't trying to be difficult, I just wanted the steak cooked to the temperature I originally ordered. The attached photo shows what I was served after asking for it to be corrected. Very disappointing experience, especially because I was polite and understanding throughout the entire interaction. I expected much better service and attention to a simple request. I won't be returning.

    What A Beautiful Way To End My Work Day. Peaceful, Serene & Awesome Customer Service !!! Chevy's On The River Is Truly My Hangout. I've Been Coming Here For Over 15 yrs, I Have So Many Memories With Family & Friends Shared Here. Thanks Manny, Alex & The Crew!!! You All Are The Bomb !!! Dia'Mond

    This was my first time trying Sunday brunch at Chevy's on the River and I absolutely loved it! My sister and friends brought me to celebrate my birthday and it was such a great experience. We waited about 10 minutes for an outdoor table, but it was way too hot, so we asked to sit inside. They kindly put us back on the list, and after another 10 minutes we were seated around 1:45pm just in time to enjoy the all-you-can-eat buffet before brunch ended at 2pm. It was packed, with people waiting and enjoying themselves everywhere; inside, outside, even at the bar. Definitely recommend making a reservation if you plan to go! The food was fantastic. I had a made-to-order omelet from the omelet station and it was the cook's first day, but he nailed it! Delicious. I also tried the shrimp tacos from the taco bar, which were amazing. There were plenty of options, from Mexican favorites like enchiladas to desserts and more. For about $40 per person, it was well worth it. Our server was funny, attentive, and really made sure we were taken care of. The view of the river added a beautiful backdrop to our celebration. Perfect spot for families, celebrations, or just a great brunch outing. I'll definitely be back!

    Wife's super Cinco. A lot of food.

    Do they still sell bags of chips and salsa?

    Yes

    When is outdoor seating available for reservations or is it just whatever table that's available (inside or out) at the time of your reservation?

    They are currently not open for outdoor seating. I called this morning, I only want to go if I can sit outside. I was told they are not currently serving outdoors because of the heat. HOWEVER, my son went there a few weeks ago, and they were not… 

    Are there keto options?

    Yes, my gf is hard core keto and she loves the fajita salad. I eat all of the chips of course!

    After seeing The Odyssey at the Esquire IMAX, we walked over to Tequila Museo Mayahuel for dinner…read more It was the perfect way to end our evening! The restaurant had great energy and a fun, buzzy atmosphere. The crowd was a lively mix of people from the Capitol, couples enjoying date night and moviegoers grabbing dinner before or after a show. We ordered the carnitas and carne asada. Both plates were generous and full of flavor. The carnitas were tender and practically fell apart with a fork, and the carne asada was cooked perfectly. Add friendly service and a colorful setting, and you have a great downtown Sacramento dining spot!

    We went in a Saturday around 2pm, the restaurant was not busy at all and we were seated promptly…read more The food at Tequila Museo Mayahual was good, and we enjoyed the flavors and overall atmosphere. Unfortunately, the service was lacking during our visit. One of our meals was forgotten and we had to flag down the server to let him know. Our server also wasn't around very often, so it was difficult to get refills or ask for anything we needed. When we requested a specific number of to-go boxes, we weren't given enough and had to get up and ask for additional boxes ourselves. Overall, the food was enjoyable, but I took away 1 star for the lack of service. The service could definitely use some improvement, especially since it wasn't busy when we went. With more attentive service, this could have been a much better dining experience.

I understand busy nights happen, especially near Golden 1 Center, but the pacing and attention made us feel more like a transaction than a guest. If you're grabbing a quick bite before an event, the food will do the job. If you're looking for a relaxed, unhurried dinner, I'd look elsewhere.
