    Happy hour menu, 5/27/2025
    Jackson T.

    Went here for a work team building during their Happy Hour, which is during weekdays 2 pm -5 pm. The restaurant was empty when we were here due to it being middle of the day during a Tuesday. I enjoyed all the appetizers we got from the HH menu and there was a good variety. I liked the knots, the wings and the fried ravioli. Great food for cheap and it fed all of us (6 of us). Service was great as well. Our waitress checked up on us a few times and was not overbearing. All our needs were met with a smile. The restaurant itself has lots of seating and we never felt rushed. They also have a bar area and seating with TVs for watching games. There are booths and tables and everything felt nice. Lots of lighting as well. Parking is street metered parking unless you want to park at City Hall Garage or the Library Garage. Overall, we left satisfied and will be back.

    Frends Brewhouse has been a favorite among me and my coworkers for lunch, especially for their lunch deals! I normally order pizza, but this time, I decided to order the Spaghetti lunch special, which was just $11! WHAT A STEAL! The portion size was huge and came with 2 garlic cheesy breads as well which were delicious. Their service is always great. Even when they are packed, especially during lunch rush, the food comes out decently fast. I will definitely be returning and honestly probably ordering the spaghetti again!

    Philly sandwich with steak and fries
    Tien D.

    At first I thought this was a Pete's pizza because the sign looked similar but this restaurant has a much more extensive menu. It is located downtown kitty corner from Caesar Chavez park. You order and pay at the counter and food comes to you at your table. I ordered the Philly Cheese with steak. The meat was very tender and is filet mignon per the menu. The portions are generous and I could have easily shared my meal with someone as I was here for lunch and it came with a side...I chose fries. Fries were perfect, hot and crispy on the outside and well-seasoned. I didn't even need ketchup. The sandwich was also good and included bacon, which I am not used to in a Philly sandwich. I would have been okay without the bacon. Meat was tender. There was too much bread...it was too thick/dense. I ended taking the top off. Otherwise taste was good.

    Pete's Brewhouse Burger
    Allison R.

    The lunch options were extremely limited so unless you want the 5 things they offer for lunch this place is a bit much. The burger was a 4/10 and the pasta was too saucy and needed a thicker sauce to cling to the noodle. The cheese bread was good. Services was not friendly but wasn't unfriendly/bad. Very lackluster overall.

    Personal Pep, Jalapeño, Pineapple Pizza! Because yes Pineapple belongs on pizza. Hehehe

    I love what they have done with the place. The vibe is different from Pete's. The pizza is sooooo good. Great Lunch Specials. And I can get what I want and not share lol.

    Spicy fettuccini, added mushrooms. Yum!

    Food was delicious. Seemed a bit short staffed but the service was not slow. Location is not ideal but the restaurant itself felt clean. Many food choices. Steak and spicy fettuccine were excellent.

    Clam Chowder Soup in plastic to go container
    Tay J.

    I stopped in after checking out the downtown bodegas and food trucks, and honestly, I regret it. I wanted to try the tandoori chicken pizza since it's unique, but the hostess dismissed it and pushed the chicken and garlic pizza instead. That immediately turned me off. I settled for the clam chowder after she hyped it up, but it was served in a flimsy plastic to-go container. Who serves boiling hot soup in plastic? Not only does it ruin the experience, it makes you question how seriously they take food quality. On top of that, there was a Blue Lives Matter flag hanging inside. Between the lackluster food service, the bad judgment with packaging, and the off-putting atmosphere, I won't be coming back and wouldn't recommend this spot to anyone.

    WHO MADE THIS FREAKING SANDWICH! PETE DID?!? WELL I OUGHTA... THANK THEM!!! I Eat Pete's Neat Treats! What is blud waffling on about??? First time here in Sacramento, and the first place that caught my eye? Pete's! I had the hot pastrami sandwich. It was good but not hot but it was good. The sandwich was a pretty good size, I was content but not super full from it. The fries were also pretty good, I loved the texture of them. Love the cute little Christmas tree near the entrance as well! The restaurants that have someone's name in them are always S tier heh. So who's Pete? Pete the Cat I assume??? Thanks for the good food Pete the Cat! (I included a picture of me and Pete digging in the sandwich)

    I was in the mood for pizza and Pete's is close by and still open! Called in for a pick up order and was told the order would be 20mins. I arrived exactly in 20mins and everything was ready to go. The dining area looked clean and the vibe were perfect for a Sacramento pizza joint. Sacramento kings flags hung in the bar area. Pizza & wings were hot, fresh and delicious. I ordered the Creamy Garlic & Chicken Pizza: Creamy garlic sauce, tender chicken breast, mushrooms, tomatoes, red onions, green onions, and fresh Italian herbs. This was super cheesy, lots of quality ingredients and worth the price. Small 10inch pizza perfect for 2people, 6 slices $16 I was impressed with the perfectly cooked wings, they were really good. The Spicy & Sweet rub was flavorful. They also give you choice of dipping sauces. 8 piece wing $14 Bottled soda $3.50 each The employee at the register was very helpful and energetic. I will be back.

    Came here as part of a party. The restaurant did a great job of setting up the tables and having the food prepared on time. The pizzas were good & so was the appetizer platter. I'd love to give this place a higher rating but when the waitress came by to give our drinks...I was missed. So I waited a bit to see if she would come back around, but she didn't. So I approached her as she happened to be at the drink area, and I asked her for a water. She replied "yea we will bring it to you". I'm not sure why she didn't just give me one while I was there, she was right in front of the water and soda fountain. I returned back to my seat & waited. But she never came around. At this point, I started eating and needed water. So I went back and asked another staff member who was standing next to the drinking fountain & he gave me water immediately. I had to knock down points for the lady's lack of customer service & follow up.

    Nachos added chicken

    We came here on Saturday for a quick bite and met up with some friends. 100+ degree weather they didn't have ac on it was burning hot in there. They did have hh when the nba game was on so that was nice. We ordered buffalo wings, nachos and drinks. The nachos. Horrible sad basic needs help. It looked like my 10 year old made it. I could only imagine if we didn't add chicken in it. Service was nice and quick then slowed down drastically after 20 mins our waitress went missing and we had to grab another guy. Ordered a second round of drinks and 2 were missing... it took so long to get out we decided to just grab our check and spend money elsewhere. Mind you it wasn't busy. For sure lacking service. Won't be back

    Ground beef and pepperoni personal pizza (two toppings) and a garden salad $11

    Great customer service and new great prices. Pizza and salad lunch special for $11!!! Two topping personal pizza and a salad!! Nice!!!

    Wow! We were looking for a bite and a beer and saw Pete's was nearby and had decent reviews. We walked up, and at first, I was a little unsure. It seemed like kinda a strip mall place, pretty plan, and all. But, we gave it a go anyway and were very happy we did. We sat a high top near the bar. There were plenty of TVs all around with sporting events on. Service was absolutely perfect, and our waiter checked on us and others nearby. They have a full bar and about a dozen or so of excellent beers on tap. I started with a local IPA and then switched over to a very nice pils for my second one. We ordered the Pete's garlic pizza and it was amazing! Totally delicious, we devoured the entire thing. First looks can be deceiving, Pete's is a great place!

    Super cool pizza spot!…read more So first off the name alone was what sold us! The restaurant is pretty small but gives a cool cozy feel to it. The staff were super nice and helpful! And super welcoming. They serve alcohol here so perfect spot for a drink and a slice! The pizza was so good! They offer a lot of different kinds of pizza but we went with a pepperoni pizza. Super good and tasty! The pizza is a little more on the oily side but i suspect it's from the amount of pepperoni, which I'm not complaining about I love a good pepperoni pizza! Especially when they don't shy away from the pepperoni. Also ordered some truffle fry's and I'm personally not a fan of but if you're a fan of truffle that will be right up your alley! I will say the fry's were not soggy at all and had a great crisp to them and stayed having that crisp so that was really nice. All in all will be back here for some more pizza and to try some other stuff on their menu! Great spot, great people and great food Would highly recommend!

Nice They have seating outside in front on the sidewalk. Also some outside dinning in the back of the place. You order first from the counter and then find a place to sit down and eat. They have a water station near the counter. Also the bathroom in to the right of the counter. The lady at the register was very friendly and explained the special by the slice pizza. Also you can order a pizza half one topping and the other another topping which was what we went with. We got the regular combo and the vegetarian the other half. I got a table at the top in the back. The table was a little dirty and had not been wiped down. Had to do it ourselves. The manager was across from us but didn't say anything along with another worker. Oh well. It wasn't very busy inside. They had a couple of people on the outside tables and two tables taken inside. Pretty empty otherwise. The lady told us that it would be 22 minutes for our pizza to be ready. I think we got it in 20. These are not the traditional round type. They are square and a good size to. It was 44 bucks for this pizza since we had water to drink. They crust was the best part. Nice an crispy. The vegetarian was not bad. I Liked it . The Combo was just adding salami and pepperoni. It was alright. I liked the veggi better. A lot of my wife's friends said they really liked this place. I thought it was nice but the drive from Elk Grove was a bit for this pizza. Which I thought was just ok. At least we tried it. Not bad. If I was in the area then yes.

    La Porta Came here…read moreon a Saturday for a friend's birthday with a large group of 17, and we didn't have reservations--so we knew it might be a bit of a challenge. At the time, they had one cook and a manager who was also acting as the bartender and server for the whole floor. You could tell he was a little nervous at first with such a big party, but honestly, he handled it really well. He was friendly, energetic, and super transparent about what they were out of since everything is made fresh. He also did a great job explaining the dishes and cocktails, which we appreciated. Our group was pretty easygoing, and overall the experience felt fun and relaxed. The food came out looking (and tasting) amazing across the board. I ordered the gluten-free hot honey pizza, and it was a standout--perfect crust, nice balance of sweet and heat, and loaded with cheese, pepperoni, and sausage. Definitely a win. One of my friends also ordered gluten-free and tried the pesto chicken pizza. Unfortunately, that one missed the mark--the chicken was overcooked, the pesto flavor was off, and the pizza itself was a bit bland. However, when she mentioned it, the server immediately made it right by remaking her pizza and not charging for it, which we really appreciated. The space itself has a great vibe--cute aesthetics and it sounds like they host events during the week like DJs and art nights, which is a fun touch. Parking can be a little tricky since it's on a busy intersection, but manageable. Overall, a really solid experience, especially considering our group size and no reservation. I'd definitely come back and would love to see gluten-free pasta options added in the future!

When we arrived at 7pm on a Wednesday we were concerned because it was semi-empty. So we thought "oh gosh the food isn't going to be good"! But it was amazing- this restaurant has so much potential to be sold out 7 nights a week!

We also got the "Fun Guy" pizza to share and made the mistake of removing the goat cheese, which I think hurt it.

But every time I visit Paesanos I get both of those things. On my most recent visit to the restaurant, I had the pleasure of being served by Clemens. He was extremely knowledgeable about the menu and helped me find the perfect meal(Fettucine Arrositi) to fit my current dietary restrictions. He also helped my grandma find something on the menu that wouldn't be too carb heavy since she is diabetic. He was pleasant all around, he was patient with my grandma all night and made me feel like he truly valued our time and didn't rush us. He is everything you want in a server-kind,direct,knowledgeable, and dependable. I would come back any time just to get customer service like that. Now on to the food, I had the Fettucine Arrositi which I believe is their signature dish. I have had it before but this time it was especially delicious. The sauce has a flavor like no other pasta I've ever had it's rich but not too rich creamy but not too creamy and the thing that sets it apart from other creamy pastas is the subtle Cajun flavor. It tastes a bit like old bay and Tabasco to me with some other amazing things in it I'm sure but it was delicious 9/10 My grandma likes to order a lot of things for the table because she never got to have that so she ordered a bunch of things for herself to try and for me to finish. We had the meatballs and they were fantastic but she felt they were too big haha 9/10. Then we had the calamari which was my favorite of the appetizers we ordered. I'm hoping next time to try the polenta fries. Then for her main course my grandma had the wedge salad which she loved but she did mention she wished it had lots more bacon and I can't blame because I too always want more bacon on things. All in all it was a great experience and I will be back very soon.
