    Next to the Little Caesars parking lot. The restaurant isn't that big, BUT their plates are ‍ and the prices are reasonable. The staff is nice and attentive. The food was flavorful and a decent amount. We will definitely come back.

    Great service, food was delicious and generously portioned. Don't be fooled by the location. Once you walk in you'll know that this is the spot for brunch! I love that it's not just breakfast items. I got a club sandwich with onion rings. The coffee refill was on point.

    I have cancer, so I chose to replace the fried food that came with my meal with fruit because I'm trying to eat healthier. Unfortunately, the fruit I received was old and in very poor condition, which was extremely disappointing. I also asked for an extra toast and waited for about 30 minutes, but it never came. I asked three different employees about it, and unfortunately, no one seemed to care or follow up. I'm very disappointed with both the quality of the food and the service. I paid more and expected much better.

    Went here with my family (Party of 13) for my birthday brunch. The staff are welcoming, friendly and quick. The food was delicious. This is a great spot for breakfast and we'll definitely be back.

    Nice presentation

    Service is always on point. Early burs specials are one-of the best in town and just the right amount of food that will leave you satisfied and not sleepy I cant say enough good things about this place!

    Came here on Labor Day Monday with a group of seven, and we had such a great experience. The service was prompt, the wait time was short, and everything came out fresh and hot. I ordered the chicken fried steak and it was amazing - perfectly cooked and full of flavor. The mango mimosa was an even better addition, and honestly, I'd come back just for that. Every main dish also came with a side of fluffy pancakes, which were spot-on and made the meal feel complete. Now, I'll say the aesthetic isn't the fanciest, but that's not what you come here for. You come here for the service and the food, and they absolutely delivered on both. One detail that really stood out: my niece wanted a gumball from the machine by the register, and I didn't have a quarter. The young man at the register was kind enough to hand her one - such a small gesture, but it really showed how welcoming and family-friendly this spot is. Safe to say we left a good tip, and we'll definitely be back.

    I'm from out of town and have been here twice - once during the weekend (when there's a wait time) and once during the weekday (around 8am when there was plenty of seating. This place is the perfect breakfast spot. Big portions, tasty food, great service. This is also a great place for brunch with PLENTY of mimosa offerings. There's lots of places to sit but again during the weekend it gets busy but thankfully it is attached to a parking lot. All in all come here for good ol' diner food! PS: special shout out to their huge pancakes and their hollandaise sauce!

    Amazing amazing amazing! What an amazing brunch we had today at Hot Off the Griddle. Heather was super attentive to us. We ordered the California and the Southwestern omelettes. The hashbrowns and biscuit were delicious. The service was quick and the food was hot and delicious. It gives family dining. Like everyone is a regular! Loved it. 9/10

    Had the pleasure of having breakfast here at Hot Off the Griddle. Our server was so nice and down to earth. We were greeted and were given water and menu. Let me say first , the portions are very very generous here. You will walk out full. I ordered an Eggs Benedict and wow, it was huge for breakfast. But I gobbled it all, well most of it lol. The eggs were cooked perfectly, nice a yolky as they should. The ham was thick. So very good. My potato bits were seasoned nicely and the dish had a side of fruits which was just the topper. I was very satisfied after my meal and with the service. Will have to come back when I'm in Sacramento. Plenty of seating inside and has a pretty chill vibe. There wasn't any loud music of that sort. It was pleasant eating breakfast here.

    Solid breakfast place up north. I always seek a new spot to try on my early days, so this was perfect. In my opinion, this place is good, not great. My corned beef and hash was definitely not standard or the store bought variety, but it was slow cooked for 6 hrs and I appreciated that. The potatoes were well seasoned, but I prefer them to be crispier. Eggs are eggs. I always opt for an extra egg for the protein and to balance out the meal better. The biscuit was definitely made in house, but was a little dry for my taste. It was still palatable. They have a nice menu and place seemed pretty packed for a Wednesday late morning. The service is simple and quick. They have a very large counter area that I sat at and really liked. You have quite a bit of space. I took a video for you guys to appreciate the vibe. It's pretty straightforward, The food is definitely a little elevated, but not "knock your socks" off great, but that's okay. I think this is a great option for breakfast for Natomas natives or people nearby. Rec'd: corned beef hash, HOTG Benedict, and the chicken friend steak

    First time in.... Friendly service with a smile at 7:30am. Place was already hopping, which bodes well for it being a legit find. Menu had some really nice breakfast options with all the basics; eggs, meats, pancakes, waffles, omelettes, Benedict's, scrambles, and of course biscuits and gravy!!! Another nice feature is the ability to order a larger portion (XL plates) down to small portions. Basic strip mall type interior that's kept clean and well ventilated, which is super important given the amount of cooking going on in the kitchen! Coffee black this visit, so can't comment on any of the juices or other mixed drinks. Lots of mimosas and cocktails with a small beer and wine list available if that's your breakfast thing! Since it's my first visit I had to go with biscuits and gravy w/scrambled eggs and sausage links. Biscuits are good sized and just the right mix of fluffy/consisntecy. I'm not a fan of dense biscuits, nor do I like them too fluffy. These hit the mark! Bacon based gravy, not the traditional sausage so it hits a little different, and is really good! Two eggs scrambled really seemed like four.... So perfect!! Sausage links were also decent sized and perfect for cutting into 6 slices each to enjoy with epic bites of BnG and egg. All in all... they earned this high rating on the first visit! If I make it back I'll provide an update, if warranted!!!

    Food was good! Bridget was super helpful and we had just missed the morning rush. Lots of options at this place, and everything looked and smelled yummy. Will definitely be back to try some other things. Didn't even take a picture before we dug in haha!

    Up close of hair inside omelette

    Met a couple of friends this morning for breakfast. Despite having to ask for napkins a few times, service was excellent. Our waitress acknowledged our long wait and having to ask for napkins again. Just to acknowledge is appreciated. I ordered 3 items ToGo. It was cooked promptly...took it home & after half way through eating, my son sees this hair tucked inside his omelette... suggestion, not sure if hair nets are required to be worn by chief but maybe it should be... if I lived close, I would've taken order back, simply because it wasn't cheap and this is just absolutely disgusting.

    Are you still offering outside dining? If yes, when is the best time to come to guarantee a seat outside? Thanks!

    No small place, don't see we one would seat out side

    Do they serve bacon alternative like turkey bacon, etc?

    Why don't the waiters wear masks?

    They do wear masks

    Are they open for outside dining these days?

    Absolutely. We have plenty of outdoor seating!

    Does HOTG have a catering option?

    Yes, they do catering and host events as well

    Can you order to go?

    Always!

    Do they make a thanksgiving sandwich?

    Not this year Zach. We couldn't get the smoker going because of the rain this year so no Turkey. Just our normal house made Turkey breast for our sandwiches.

    What is the noise level here and is the piped in music bothersome?

    Low, I get there when they open and I have not heard any piped in music.

There is plenty of paid street parking nearby. The interior of the restaurant feels hipster and fresh. The host and servers were very friendly. They offered their insight on what menu items we should order. I will say our food took forever to come out. We were only a party of 7 so I guess I can see why but it easily felt like 30 minutes for our meal to arrive. Some dishes came out way after the others came out. I wasn't really feeling anything on the menu. I ended up getting a dish that I normally wouldn't try since it seemed lol my best option. The Po Boy was actually a pleasant surprise. It was crunchy and its flavor complimented the bread nicely. The ranch made the pickled onions pop and it was a decent sandwich size too. The fries were warm and crunchy. The prices are about average for a 2026 brunch spot. I'd say expect to walk out of here for about ~$35+ for a meal for two. I don't really have anything negative to say about my meal or experience here except for how long our meal took to arrive. And for that, I had to deduct a star. Bottom line/TLDR: great shrimp sandwiches!

Generally not the type of place you find accidentally. I don't feel like that changes at all once you walk in the door. It''s not a loud place, almost every time I've been here, it seems to be parties of 3 or less, but usually less than that, either studying or getting work done on a laptop while drinking a coffee relishing in the quaint quiet steadiness of the shop. The spot kinda looks like it's always still under construction but after many visits I realize now that's just the decor. Parking is available here in a nearby lot though ample street parking seems to be the spot I choose on most visits. The employees are not annoyingly enthusiastic yet they are friendly, but more in an energy that matches the room kinda friendly. There are plenty of tables for customers at this shop along with my favorite pair of recliner-type chairs near the front of the store. This particular visit we decided we just wanted coffee and we went with an Iced Vanilla Latte ($7.50) and a Sea Salt and Honey Shaken Espresso ($6.75). The drinks came out very quickly-less than a five minute wait. I've always adored the Sea Salt Honey Espresso drink, as it's been my go-to at Old Soul ever since I discovered it there.This visit was no different as it was still so yummy and the perfect afternoon pick-me-up as I set out for a busy rest of the day. The wifey loved her vanilla iced latte, Old Soul has always used quality coffee beans and that looks like that hasn't changed as their coffee is as tasty as ever. Old Soul does offer pastries but we never really had a chance to try them on this visit as we had multiple food plans later that day but I can say from experience-I've always enjoyed their pastries when I was lucky enough to order one. In closing, Old Soul Coffee is a Sacramento staple as they have a few locations located all over the city and I've always had a genuine great coffee shop experience and this location was no different-highly recommend.
