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!

I had trouble finding the entrance but figured out it is part of cafe Bernardo, tucked into the back of the restaurant. I ordered a cocktail that had on the menu that is basically a fruity lemon drop. I also had the loaded fries and a pizza. The food and drinks were delicious. The server was also very friendly and checked in with us to make sure everything was ok and see if we needed anything. The decor was very cool too. I will definitely be going back.

At the time I went there was only one bartender who was doing an incredible job of trying to balance orders especially in orders of customers that came first. Although I had to wait for awhile the bartender still gave me his attention and patience for deciding which beer I liked. He was even able to hand me tastings to whatever drafts they had at the time. I had a nice time for my first experience here.

Cynthia really knew her stuff behind the bar, creating delicious NA and alcoholic cocktails. The vietnamese espresso martini was very good, but her custom lychee gin and tonic was AMAZING. I love when a mixologist is able to concoct something special, and she did not disappoint. The manicure itself was lovely, and Cassidy was delightful and incredibly professional. She really went to work on my hands and nails after a literal lifetime of nail biting and neglect. I am very happy with the results and will absolutely be back in a couple months for a refresh!

I enjoyed every moment of being here, from the warm welcome we received upon entering, the delicious lyche martini I was served, the great little gifts and items they sell, and then the manicure experience itself was top notch from start to finish! I can't wait to go back next time I'm in Sacramento.

Disco balls, sun catchers, plants, and artwork adorn the walls and ceiling. The outside also grabs your attention with their faux grass walls and patio area that is perfect for sitting with a good drink on a spring day. The menu has lots of options, there are vegetarian friendly choices, and a really nice happy hour selection. They do not take reservations and get filled very quickly! My friends and I came for a book club meeting (8 of us) and I am very happy I came early to snag a table. I got here at 4:05 right after opening and the bar area was already full a long with a couple tables! The service was great, food came out quick and was delicious, and we had a great time. I would definitely recommend trying this spot out!

It combines a modern chic look with an abundance of plants, making for one of the more creative places I've been to. "Gorgeous" is the most fitting word to describe the overall experience. I took my date here for dinner and drinks. The Classic Burger held up relatively average but the fries had a standout savory taste to them. I would order the fries alone if I stop by again. As for drinks, I opted for the Strawberry Rosé Slushee; it's refreshing and the perfect choice for brunch or happy hour. It tastes modestly sweet so I would caution downing more than a couple of these at the risk of a hangover. The Purple Haze (mainly ube foam on blanco tequila) is unfortunately nothing short of a flop. To be fair, I'm negatively biased toward anything tequila in the first place, but this drink tastes like straight tequila. The ube foam doesn't contribute to the taste and awkwardly floats on the surface. TLDR: beautiful interior, good food, and decent drinks (depending on what you get).
