Fantastic Spot To "Pregame" Shows @ Goldfields Next Door…read more SITREP We descended upon the Tack Room an hour before our show for "Ally The Piper" (both the classical AND heavy metal bagpiper extraordinaire) began her show! THE SETUP Goldfields is a charming, rustic country-western stylized saloon that serves up beer at good prices. But we weren't interested in beer and wanted quality cocktails. Hence, our pivot next door to the Tack Room! QUALITY COCKTAILS & DRINKS! The Tack Room specializes an amazing array of martinis, bourbons, and other deLISH cocktail drinks at really really reasonable prices! So this was an excellent choice to chill, thus avoiding the tremendous *noise pollution* we were immediately subjected to upon entering Goldfields an hour later for our show. THE LOWDOWN This is a quality bar with plenty of comfortable seating to relax and have quiet, intimate conversations. So if you and your later friend(s) want some privacy, cocktails at a reasonable price, etc., this is a good way to go.

What an absolutely fantastic place to duck into and chill for a bit on a hot summer day. It's about…read moreas classic as you can ask for from a small bar. It's themed around horse racing, but not in an overbearing or... tacky way. The mixologist was delightful and had great recommendations, the lights were dim, and the drinks were all on point. The highlight was the espresso martini, which is among the best I've had. It was reminiscent of the one I had at the Starbucks Roastery in NYC, which is high praise. The other coffee drink that surprised me was the Revolver. I always forget about what a good pairing orange and coffee is, and I'll be taking this one back home with me to try! Every other drink we tried was delicious in some unique way. The Pho drink was savory and surprising, the New York Sour was rich and flavorful, and the Practical Move was refreshing. Will definitely return here after dinner to sip an espresso martini for dessert!

However, their churros!!!!!! Honestly, still not over them! Best I've ever had, it was perfectly crunchy, and the inside melted in your mouth! Came out hot and fresh, and would be perfect if you ever eat it with ice cream! Definitely the best item on the menu! 10/10 for churros, food 7/10.

It is nicely decorated but the music was so loud you couldn't have a conversation.

Very disappointed.

My first experience here was unforgettable -- my class rented out the rooftop for our master's degree graduation party, so I really got to see everything they offer. The food was phenomenal and the drinks were just as impressive. Since it was a private event, I had the chance to try a little bit of everything: wagyu sliders, shrimp cocktail, crab cakes, pork belly bites, charcuterie, and more. We truly went all out. Outside of that event, every time I've come in as part of the general public, it's been a positive experience too. The crowd is usually full of young professionals, and it definitely gets packed -- in a good way. The vibe is lively, stylish, and social. Overall, it's a great spot, and I'm glad they're keeping things fresh. Until next time -- thanks for the good time.

This is located on a rooftop of the Hyatt Centric with sweeping views of Sacramento and beyond. We went around sunset to enjoy some drinks and apps before heading out. The menu was creative and unique. Our cocktails were very well prepared and our server made a great recommendation when they were out of an Ingredient for one of the drinks we wanted to try. Their recommendation was a solid option. For food we tried the tandoori chicken lollipops which were super juicy and tender and flavorful. The pakoras were also perfect crispy on the outside and well seasoned. Highly recommend checking it out.

I love the Chinese donut dipped in my BBH broth. I ordered the premium BBH, which contains ox tail, short rib, and rib eye. I was pleasantly surprised that the ox tail was really tender. Similar establishments typically serve ox tails that are very chewy and non-tender. The broth was nicely balanced with the perfect amount of lemongrass and spice. Service was excellent. Our server was very affable and welcoming. The food came out almost instantly. I am already looking forward to my next visit!

This was a little off putting as that was never the case before Saigon was forced to close a couple years ago due to a kitchen fire. But we didn't let that deter us from ordering and finding out why the restaurant was empty. Their menu is missing a lot. And because of that a couple who just sat down decided to head to their midtown location which has most of those missing dishes. I think this is a huge reason for their lack of crowd. Our favorite honey shrimp dish is no longer available. Neither is their fried rice. My lady and I both had our hearts set on the shrimp. A bit disappointing. We went with their chicken egg rolls, rocket shrimp and garlic noodles with chicken wings. We genuinely loved our food. It came out hot which meant is was super fresh. The egg rolls were stuffed with meat. Bomb! The firecracker shrimp were delicious. The garlic noodles as bomb as I remember. Wings had lots of perfectly cooked chicken on them. It seems like they're specializing in pho and making that the emphasis of their restaurant. Overall this restaurant has changed a lot. Seems like a whole page was missing in their menu. I'd like to see them reintroduce some old favorites as it would help with business. Encouraging people to head to their sister location downtown isn't ideal as people are already there. I'm sure even more money is lost as those people just plan on making another restaurant their destination instead.

You order at the counter then are given a number. Picked up some complimentary chips and salsa and waited. The salsas here were pretty good. Particularly like the mild red salsa. Fresh radish and jalapeños available too. I loved my California burrito. I added avocado to it. The asada were meaty and plentiful. Fries were crunchy yet not greasy. My mom loved the beans here. That's always a big deal with Mexican spots. The chilaquiles were delicious. I'd order that myself on the next visit. We didn't care for their scrambled eggs on the plate, could've went a bit softer on the scramble. Overall this place is a great local spot for Mexican eats. Affordable while still serving big portions and awesome bites. Cashier was super friendly and patient.
