    Salmon Burrito Bowl
    David M.

    Not sure I've ever had a bad meal here. Both the shrimp and the salmon are great! If you are in a hurry, pick the shrimp. But the salmon is worth the wait.

    We placed an order for 40 people for chicken tacos, rice and beans. They delivered right on time and with a generous amount of serving spoons. It came with a HUGE bag of chips, the hugest salsa I've ever seen, pico, lettuce, cheese, beans, rice, tortillas and chicken. All the side arrived hot and a very generous amount.... Expect for the chicken. We barely had enough for 40 people and I felt like it was a small tray for 40 people. I also didn't really like the tortillas... by the time people ate, all the tortillas got stuck together. I did really enjoy the flavor of the chicken. But people overall enjoyed it , I just don't know if I would get it catered again.

    I've eaten here ( Davis location) for 25+ years. Thus I've already written a bunch about the regular menu. So today's review is about the new seasonal spinach and asparagus quesadilla. It's delicious! I added the grilled shrimp for $3 extra and was very happy with the amount of shrimp they added. The dipping sauce was nice and tangy and a little spicy. Overall it had great flavor and I really liked it. Was surprised the amount of asparagus wasn't significant, but maybe that's cause I added shrimp? Anyway very yummy and a nice seasonal addition. Arugulas side salad was also well dressed and a nice accompaniment.

    Beautiful out door patio along the bike trail!

    Have you had your DOS today? I love the Dos Coyotes Border Cafès! Because there is no Dos Coyotes near me in El Dorado Hills, I try to hit one up whenever I am out and about in an area where one is located. There are nine locations. Two in Davis, 3 in Sacramento, 1 in Elk Grove, 1 in Roseville, 1 in Citrus Heights, and 1 in Folsom. Each restaurant serves the same delicious South Western food, provides an engaging atmosphere, and offers exceptional value. That includes over-the-top customer service, too! Consistency is definitely the mantra. Something many chains are not able to pull off. Today, I am at the Folsom Dos! And "hangry" to say the least. Walking in, I am happy to see Eric one of the cool employees I have run into at the Citrus Heights location. He is so pleasant and ready to take your counter order with a great big smile. Thanks, Eric! After ordering, I stroll to the outside patio in the back. It is beautiful, peaceful, and overlooks a bicycle path that is so lovely. This is probably my favorite of all the locations. The menu items are all bomb. Specials are offered at each location. Right now they include: Frito Pie, Grilled Shrimp Grain Bowl with Strawberry Salsa, Sizzling Fajitas - Grilled Vegetables, the 505 Chili-Cheese Burrito, Sizzling Fajitas - Garlic/Chile Shrimp, Sizzling Fajitas - Traditional Tex-Mex, Green Chile Stew, an Hank's Cubano. Whew! The run down for each of these specials would be impossible to include. But I can assure you, the menu descriptions sound mouth watering. I love that the farm-to-table movement is supported and celebrated at each location, resulting in the best food from the freshest ingredients! Bobby Coyote (yep...that is his name) states in his bio that Dos Coyotes is the result of two major inspirations. His love of Santa Fe and his childhood in Los Angeles. In LA, he ate some of the best, authentic Mexican food. A trip to Santa Fe introduced him to creating fusions and hybrids with other cultures that came to define "Southwestern Cuisine." Delicious!!! Sustainability efforts are supported and listed on their website t. Community involvement is a part of the culture, and ways to engage with the business are made available on the website. All I can say is the food totally rocks at each and every Dos Coyotes Border Café. There is something for everybody! Adult beverages. I LOVE the Hornitos Margaritas! Kid drinks and menu. Clean, organized, and the lines move quickly. These employees are on it! I have never had a problem parking at any of the restaurants. This is a very special chain of cafès and we are sooooooo lucky to have them in our region. Welp, I certainly had my DOS today! Have you had yours? :-)

    Tomatillo Salsa, red salsa w/ Pico de Gallo, spicy habanero salsa, creamy green salsa with nopales/cactus in it?

    If you're looking for authentic Mexican food - this ain't the place for you. What you get though is a Tex-mex/ New Mexico or Arizona style- mex style fresh meal. I ordered the green enchilada plate with chicken enchiladas and the bf got one of the Spring specials- Hank's cubano. The enchiladas were great and flavorful - the sauce had a sweet tanginess to it - similar to one of the green tomatillo salsas from the salsa bar. It also came with choice of beans and rice and chips. Hank's cubano is a spin on a cuban sandwich- its actually not on bread at all but rather a tortilla and it comes with an amazing housemade mustard dipping sauce. That definitely sold me. I had to steal one of the pieces off my bf's plate ;P. The color, decor, and vibe is so fun with vibrant colors and cute sculptures and statues. It's a casual place and you just go up to the counter to order and they give you a number and you choose a seat and they bring the food out to your table. Service was great and quick. They have lots of fun drinks by the can/bottle displayed nicely and even alcohol options. They also have fountain drinks. Their Salsa bar is also quite the display with many mild to spicy options. We tried a few different ones (see photo). I think the fact that my boyfriend loves this place and he gave me the background on it and how to prep for it really made it the 5 star for me. Thank you for this experience Dos Coyotes!

    Ranchero Burrito
    Mel J.

    We went on Tuesday night to get a take away for dinner. The parking was full so I had to circle once to get a spot. The restaurant was quite busy but the line moved quickly. We got our order within 10 mins of ordering. - Kids chicken burrito: my kid said it was good but the portion was so small that he was still hungry - Ranchero burrito a la carte with chicken: good portion with loads of delicious sauce and melting cheese. The burrito itself was delicious and flavorful. - Tortilla chips: fresh, crispy & delicious! Tips: There is a self-serve salsa with different spiciness. Get the sweet & mild salsa! It was DELICIOUS!!! The spicy pico de gallo was good & fresh too.

My only complaint on this Sunday, June 21st, is that after the initial basket of bread (which had exactly four pieces for the 4 of us) we were told by Reece that the restaurant charges $2.00 for each extra piece of bread! I was shocked, and frankly, it's an insult in my opinion, that Rudy's is so "cheap" about the bread! For all we pay for our dinners, asking for extra bread should not be a problem nor an extra charge! That really is a shame because now I am hesitant to consider bringing friends to Rudy's. I hope management will reconsider its' position on the service of bread.

I've been several times now, and even brought a group for one of my veggie UYEs to enjoy it. Each time, the food is delicious and we leave stuffed and satisfied.

Unlike most hotpot places that only have ramen noodles that contain egg, Tao's also offers udon and rice noodles in addition to the traditional ramen. Nice! Tons of veggies, including favorites King Oyster & Seafood mushrooms and daikon. Also, both fresh and fried tofu for extra plant-based protein.

    Unfortunately, this was a very disappointing experience and we will not be returning…read more We arrived on a Saturday night and the restaurant did not seem particularly busy. We were seated right away, but no one asked if we had been there before or explained how the dining experience worked. Luckily, we are very familiar with Shabu Shabu. We were a party of two adults and two children. We ordered several appetizers and chose the Kobe beef option. The first thing brought to the table was two small plates of raw beef, each with roughly 6-8 rolled slices. We then waited about 10 minutes for the vegetables, followed by another 10 minutes before the broth finally arrived. It seemed very odd to serve raw meat well before the broth needed to cook it. Rice came shortly afterward, but service remained very slow. It took another 10-15 minutes before anyone came back around so we could request more meat. When the next order arrived, it was one plate with maybe 15 slices to share between four people. We immediately asked to place another order. At that point, our waitress appeared visibly annoyed. She walked over to a coworker and began speaking animatedly in another language. Of course, we have no idea what was being discussed, but given the timing, it made us uncomfortable and feel as though we had done something wrong simply by requesting additional meat. After that, she largely stopped servicing our table and two other employees began helping us instead. Service throughout the remainder of the meal was very inconsistent. All four of our waters were empty at one point, and we rarely felt checked on. The food itself was okay. The Kobe beef was good quality, but the rice was dry and hard. The biggest issue was how difficult it felt to place additional orders at an all-you-can-eat Shabu restaurant. Our receipt showed that our family of four ordered 11 plates total, so we were certainly not ordering an unreasonable amount. For approximately $150, the overall experience simply was not worth it. There are much better Shabu restaurants in the Sacramento area. They may be a longer drive for us, but after this experience, the extra drive is absolutely worth it.

Appetizers always on point (tonight we got the calamari and onion rings). I have never had better calamari anywhere. The onion rings were very unique! Nothing like you would normally see. The breading was ultra flaky and thin, which really allowed the sweet onion to shine. Very decadent preparation. For an entree my wife and I both got the NY Strip. It's a generous cut of prime grade meat. Mine was medium rare while her's was medium. We both thought it was delicious and perfectly cooked. I subbed out the mashed potatoes for a full baked potato with all the toppings. So satisfying. Our kids got kid stuff (burger, Mac and cheese) and seemed to enjoy it. The kids mini burgers are super thick patties. Like what you would see on a half pound burger, just smaller diameter. That much beef to bread/cheese is not usually what a kid wants, but he did it at one of them and the fries. My 14yo daughter got the normal Mac and cheese and loved it (so did I, as I finished it.). Very much a new steakhouse staple (decadent Mac and cheese). For dessert we got the lava cake and ice cream. Both good but nothing extraordinary. I must say I am ALWAYS impressed with the service here. They have very knowledgeable and attentive staff. Between the food and the staff, you really are getting a 5 star experience in little old Folsom. I send people to Sutter Street Steakhouse all the time and suggest if you have not been, give it a go!

For starters, we ordered French bread with salted butter, calamari with peppers and onions, and beef Wellington. Wow, ALL of these appetizers are exceptional! The fried onions tossed in with the calamari were deliciously sweet! The sauce of the beef Wellington was creamy and the puff pastry hugging the mushroom and beef was the cherry on top for this appetizer! Adam was our server who is kind, funny, attentive, and helped us with all of our menu questions. He checked on us often, making sure we had everything we needed and to make sure everything we ordered looked good and tasted good. Their other staff who brought our food, cleared plates and glasses, and checked on us, added to the excellent Land Ocean service! I asked for the top three menu entrees customers order and with this, Adam convinced me to order the Macadamia Nut Crusted Chilean Sea Bass with coconut jasmine rice and soy-ginger glaze. I ordered spinach sub, instead of the asparagus, due to dietary restrictions. OMG my first fork full brought me back to Honolulu, HI! The macadamia nuts were candied on top of the sea bass, making this the BEST sea bass with macadamia nut dish I have ever eaten outside of HI! My mom took one bite and decided to order this plate for herself because it is THAT rich, sweet, and perfectly balanced with the flavors of the spinach, rice, and sea bass. The sea bass is extremely flaky, to add to why this is my new favorite dish in Land Ocean! My parents gave me their roasted chicken leftovers to take home, since this entree is with generous portions, so I was spoiled with Land Ocean for a meal at home the next day. The chicken and mashed potatoes are so savory to the point that I ate every piece of meat I could from the bone! My parents came from out of town to visit. They praised Adam for his outstanding service and raved about the ambiance and taste and presentation of our Land Ocean dinner we enjoyed!

Not so obvious from the entrance on Sutter Street, one descends from the street level down the "loft" to the underground bar, where suddenly you're in an exclusive speakeasy that feels like vacation. Emily, the General Manager, has roots in Allora and Mikuni, two places where the lost art of guest service is the highest priority. She's passionate about hospitality and says that people keep telling her she reminds them of their favorite bar manager from [fill in the blank]...come in and see who she reminds you of! The drink list is hardcover book-bound (cool!), with a past, present and future theme fitting for historic Folsom, featuring libations from classics to cutting edge. Time travel from the Filthy Martini (circa 1901, great if you love bleu cheese) all the way to S'mores in Jalisco (circa RIGHT NOW)! The S'mores cocktails (yes, there's more than one) are literally FIRE; they're topped with flaming marshmallows. So fun, with Halloween coming up it's ghost stories around the mini-campfire. The menu focuses on appetizers, with the Jalapeno Poppers holding a solid spot as their own unique Thing, a whipped masa creation that you can't find anywhere else. The upscale steakhouse food menu isn't your standard boring bar munchies, either...but it's really about the ambience and service. *Brunch Saturdays and Sundays starting at 10:00 AM* And speaking of pop-ups - heads-up, closed on Tuesdays through October in prep for exclusive events (Follow on Instagram!).

Unfortunately, the vibe back here felt a little too quiet and a bit lonely. We found ourselves dining among an older crowd and the energy just didn't feel quite like advertised.

The drinks were pretty good, but were only filled just about 3/4 of the way which was kind of disappointing. We enjoyed the cabin like decor and cozy atmosphere. On our way out, we realized we probably should've asked to be seated at the bar or in the main lounge area. That space looked much livelier and seemed to have the energy we were hoping for. We might give this place another try just to experience it from the bar lounge area next time.
