    Been away for a bit helping out where I was needed, so this one hit a little different... first time back just sitting down with my girls and actually slowing things down over a meal. That alone made this place a win for me. Riley's is upstairs on Sutter Street and has a really cool setup with nice views. One of those spots you walk into and just know you picked right. We started with the fried pickles and those were solid. I went with the steak bowl, my girls had burgers, and everything came out good. What stood out though--they brought my daughter's dog his own bowl. Thought that was pretty awesome and not something you see everywhere. Service was great the whole time, nothing complicated, everything just flowed. Food, atmosphere, and being able to sit there with my girls and relax after being gone for a bit... yeah, this was a good one.

    Backyard BBQ with bacon on the side and sweet potato fries
    Ms. Lala L.

    I'm still thinking about this burger.... Dre's BBQ Backyard Burger 10/10!!! Damn, it was pretty fire. I got the bacon on the side for my doggie because I don't eat pork, but it comes with tomato, fried onion straws, lettuce, and pickle. You have the choice between fries, tater tots, onion rings or a salad. Not pictured- the amazing seared ahi tuna salad 10/10 ask for a side of extra dressing. The portion is huge and price is totally worth it as they give you a healthy portion of ahi tuna. I mean this place does not disappoint with the sides or carb options for you burgers. I overheard someone next to me say how amazing the onion rings are and how they often fill themselves up too much on them before their regular meal. I chose sweet potato fries because this is always a better choice. I appreciate the sea salt grinder at the table along with having ketchup, mustard, and hot sauce all tables and ready for me. I really think it's a little annoying when restaurants don't have condiments or salt & pepper shakers out at the table and you have to bother the waiter with yet another request. This burger was cheesy and had all the necessary toppings plus really bomb bbq sauce on it. I added a little sea salt to the sweet potato fries and they tasted perfect. They have new and rotating beers and ciders and so I tried the apricot which was really good- nice that they let you taste before ordering as well. Service was great, everyone was nice and friendly and smiled, and I love the boots, jeans, and western feel of the place. As a dog lover I'm obsessed with alll the doggy pictures there. It made me smile and feel right at home. Can't wait to return when I'm in the area! Thanks for delicious food and great service!

    Nachos with braised Chix

    Stopped in for Happy Hour after a busy afternoon! Sooo glad we did! Definitely recommend the Nachos and Pizza!! Sooo delish, well served by our server and ample comfortable seating inside with views! Will be back!!!

    BLAT
    Sara W.

    This was my first time coming since it changed from hacienda! Very cute spot and I feel like they changed the inside a bit too. It feels more restaurant like than bar. I sat at the bar and the bar tender seemed new as he was still learning what each table was numbered but he was extremely friendly and attentive. I got their BLAT which comes with a big piece of chicken on it! I thought it was good but the chicken was a bit dry. I upgraded to their sweet potato fries and those were delicious. They have a huge beer selection and I definitely want to come back once the weather is nicer to sit outside on their huge outdoor patio. It looks over sutter street but still a great spot to people watch! I recommend coming here for a nice casual bite to eat! Lots of different options on the menu!

    Pulled Park and Fries
    Justin S.

    I've been here a few times, and I love the environments and service here. Zia does an amazing job making drinks and ensuring customers are being served. I've seen her countless times the only one working bar and kills it. I've only tried the pulled park sandwich special which tasted amazing. I will be back to try other food and drinks and would highly recommend this place.

    Prosecco rosé and sangria

    Always yummy at Riley's!! Love the atmosphere and service. The burrata Caprese was sooooo good!

    Drake's Burger
    Eric C.

    Came by while in town right before closing. Was greeted and sat quickly. I had the Drake Burger. It was really good. Got a little bit messy after a few bites but overall I recommend you give it a try! The spot is a vibe I'm sure in a Friday night with the music going it's a good time! I

    Happy hour Nachos. Burger and beer combo! Paoloma drink!
    Laura A.

    HAPPY HOUR! Had happy hour at Riley's on Sutter and it was a great experience with good service a great ambience and great food and drink! Everything's really festive inside and they have heaters outside if you wanna sit outside. I would highly recommend if you have a family or a group of people to come out over and have some food and drink!

    We visited Riley's on a very hot day. It is unique that the business is located on the second floor of the building, offering both indoor and outdoor seating. Because of the heat, we chose to sit inside. While the atmosphere and setup are nice, the food was average at best. We ordered the wings, but they were severely lacking in both flavor and spice. On the positive side, the drinks were good. They have a solid beer selection, including the Salty Crew beer and the Taco Truck Lager.Overall, the drinks and the unique second-floor layout were highlights, but due to the disappointing food, we would not rush to come back.

    Chicken tacos and tater tots
    Margaret E.

    I love Riley's. Although it was a hot day in Folsom, the beautiful deck are provides fans and water mister's which makes for a comfortable environment. The staff are professional and friendly. The food comes out fast and hot. I had the chicken tacos which were delicious. My dining mates had the hamburger sliders and the chicken BLT. Food was enjoyed by all. Do yourself a favor and visit Riley's on Sutter. You won't be sorry.

    When you walk in
    Benedict A.

    After landing in Sacramento, we were looking for a food joint. Tried a place in downtown Sacramento that didnt work out, so we came here instead on the way to Rescue. Its a really large place. They have a huge outside area as well,as a large indoor area. This place is evidently named after their first rescue Riley. Very beautiful dog. And a very good mission too rescuing more dogs. We ordered several things: 1. Cheeseburger slider- it was ok. 3 of them. It was ok. Nothing special. 2. Calamari- they were really well breaded. I love the crunchiness. It eas really good. 3. Boneless wings- good seasoning. It has a good amount of heat to it. Moist inside. A nice crunch on the outside. 4. Quesa birria taco- they were pretty good. Comes with chips and salsa. 5. Cajun jambalaya- it wasent that good. Flavors were muted. It needed more seafood in it. 6. Wintery cocktail- it was a marshmallow drink. It was really good. Refreshing and light. On the sweeter side. But it was really good. A cool concept restaurant. They can handle large groups. Dogs are welcomed here too. There was somewhat of a wait to order our food even though they werent busy at the time. But super friendly people. Food is good. I thoroughly enjoyed Rileys on Sutter!!

    Salmon taco and tots (with fire sauce)
    Geoff M.

    Came in on a Saturday night around 7pm. Greeted and sat promptly. Staff were nice, attentive and knowledgeable of the menu. There was a live artist when we were there. Items on menu weren't too expensive, portions were fine. Food items: Salmon tacos: 3.9/5 - Salmon was ok. Felt like a Cajun rub on the salmon before placing in the taco would've upped the score a bit. Felt like it was missing something Tots: they were tots Burger: Friend seemed to like it. Overall, the place was fine. I would try other eateries in the area if we return.

We decided to try friends. When we walked in, it was completely empty. One table inside had two people seated and one table outside had two people there. We sat on patio, it is quiet and nice to feel like you are in the woods with trees and foliage all around.. Nice and peaceful. The tables looked like the "old" Benihana type of tables with the grill pan in the middle. They looked dirty but it I think they are just dated. Not a problem for us as we tend to like "hole in the wall" type places and that is the vibe this place gives. Our waitress was nice just seemed shy. Music genre was oldies. We ordered a jalapeño burger and the grilled chicken club sandwich. The jalapeño burger was supposed to be 1/2 lb Angus beef. It did have good flavor and cooked right, but it was a very small burger. Hubby felt that it couldn't be 1/2lb. For the price it was just too small. $18. The grilled chicken avacado club sandwich had one slice of bacon on it, not a deal breaker but the chicken wasn't grilled. Not sure how it was cooked, but not on a grill. It had a lot of seasoning on it and yet the sandwich was underwhelming. The produce seemed like it was yesterday's produce. The fries were also just ok. Didn't seem like there was any salt. They did sprinkle some chopped cilantro on top which looked nice. Overall we did enjoy the patio and peacefulness of our lunch there, and we do hope to see some improvements in quality and maybe better portion sizes for the cost. We will give it a shot another time, maybe dinner time when they are a little busier.
