    Glass of water. Didn't get the drink menu... I'm thirsty
    Luv H.

    City Cafe in Yuba City has a cute, romantic vibe. The decor is charming, and the place is clean and nicely put together. It has a lot of potential, but unfortunately, the service and food didn't quite hit the mark for me. When we walked in, the hostess looked pleasant, but her attitude didn't match. She didn't seem genuinely welcoming, which was a letdown. It felt like they were short-staffed--only two servers were on the floor, running back and forth trying to keep up. The waitress tried to stay upbeat and put on a good show, but the overall service still felt lacking. The biggest disappointment for me was the tapa flatbread pizza. The waiter actually told us the pizza had been sitting out to cool. WTH? I want my pizza fresh out of the oven with a hot cheese pull, not something that's been sitting for who knows how long. The pizza was clearly not fresh, and the sauce was not good at all. I think they used wine in it or something, but the flavor was just off and not to my liking. I also had the salmon dish. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't great either. I wish I had asked for some lime or lemon--it needed something to brighten it up. The peas in the risotto were unexpected and didn't really work for me. My husband had the Ragu, a tomato-based noodle dish that tasted like spaghetti, but the flavor just wasn't good. It might've been the wine they used in the sauce again, but either way, it just didn't taste right to us. And the soup of the day? Honestly, it was straight-up nasty. It was a tomato seafood/fish soup, but the seafood was barely noticeable. The fish flavor completely overpowered the whole dish--it just wasn't enjoyable. One more thing: they never offered us a drink menu when we sat down. That should be part of the welcoming experience, and it felt like another missed detail. It also seems like their menu has changed over time--possibly due to new management--but not for the better. This place has the look and feel of a nice restaurant, but the service, food, and overall hospitality really need improvement. Staff need to stop acting so snobby and start welcoming people like they actually want them there. Otherwise, customers won't be coming back.

    Great brunch spot in the Yuba City area! City Cafe offers a classy, trendy ambience with gorgeous outdoor patio seating. They also have indoor seating if that is preferred. They offer parking behind the restaurant, so we had no issues getting a spot. We went for brunch on a Sunday afternoon and were seated immediately without a reservation. The service was friendly and fast. The prices were a bit expensive but the food was pretty delicious. I got eggs, bacon, and a fruit salad, while my boyfriend ordered the grilled chicken sandwich with chips. The chips were very salty and were weren't able to finish them. Everything else was tasty!

    This review is for city social which is adjacent to city cafe. City social is our Friday date night spot. Although I don't drink, I like coming here with my hubby to wind down and talk about our week. It's cozy with beer and wine self serve stations which my husband likes. For those who don't drink, they have zero percent Heineken beer which I think is actually pretty good. Tastes crisp and refreshing like a beer without any alcohol. I don't get why there aren't more people in general. It's family friendly and we bring our newborn here while she is fast asleep. Service is always excellent. There are fun group games to play. Our favorite thing to order for food here is actually the burger from city cafe even though it's not on the menu. Plus Their fries never disappoint. We also tried their grilled cheese which was great. Definitely recommend this place

    Jackson, new craft bartender, gave me a perfect Boulevardier and Manhattan. Coconut shrimp perfectly crunchy, tender on inside, delicious. NY steak perfect medium rare. Dessert was a berry tarte ala mode, beyond delicious!

    Came here for a nice date and was seated outside under the beautiful lights. I always have a romantic dinner with my boyfriend everytime we come and the food and service is always top notch. It's our go to date spot in yuba!

    My friend and I made a reservation for 6:30pm on a Friday Night and we were seated promptly. Every interaction we had with the staff was amazing! We were a little short on time and the staff were very accommodating. The chipotle chicken pasta was very yummy :)) Thank you for having us!

    The girl working tonight is absolutely ridiculous. She denied all of us drinks even though our IDs…read moreare valid and she's refusing to give a reason other than "Uhm, it looks off". We even showed a passport which she refused to look at and said "IDs only". Like a federal ID isn't enough somehow?? We have been there every weekend for the past 3 weeks, never seen this girl, and all of a sudden refuses to serve us because one person has a completely valid ID, and she just wants to cause chaos. She refused to compare our IDs to prove the validity, and refused to budge. It was a valid ID, and the bartender was just being stubborn and didn't want to admit her mistake. It's really a shame because we live in walking distance and we're really enjoying being able to walk down and play pool and have a beer. Now we'll be going elsewhere.

    Place has New Owners, before I walked in and walked right back out! So i was skeptic to visit again…read morebut SOOO glad we did!!!!! It was pretty busy for a week night the first night we went nice crowd we all sang some karaoke it was a blast! Felt like a rockstar on the stage... I was staying up after thanksgiving break, and went out a few week nights and Friday/sat of course and always ended up back at The Field.. (that's what the locals call) it.. The place has some great bartenders, the taco ladies tacos were amazing! My husband had nachos and those were delicious too!!! We will definitely be back !! I LOVE the dance/club nights !! They have fun lights and have no problem playing requested songs.. were not dancers but even my husband and I grooved a little bit... :) Thank you to the new peeps who bought the place! You brought the fun back to Marysville!! The themed event nights sound amazing and we are looking forward to attending the our first one the Naughty Santa Party you have coming up :) looks like a blast!! So glad we stumbled into this lil spot!! The towns best kept secret I will be back!
