    Deviled Eggs!
    Mitzi A.

    Craving g French Dip? Look no further than House Kitchen & Bar! We started off with their Deviled Eggs - with a perfectly pickled whopped flavor and topped with q pickled caper. This can come in a tray of 6 or 12 egg halves. Then I had to get the famous French Dip that had crispy onions inside the sandwich! The au jus was fab and I also got the creamy horseradish. The accompanying fries were crispy and a delicious companion for the sandwich. They have other items such as their Filet Mignon, Po' Boy Sandwich, and more. Definitely want to come back and try more

    Prime French dip

    We love visiting House when we are downtown. The Prime French Dip is the best in town for sure, but I've been counting my calories lately so yesterday I tried the Blackened Salmon salad. It was so good, perfectly dressed and I ate every bit. It was pretty full at lunch so definitely recommend a reservation. We got a nice spot outside under the trees. Service is always great and Chef Chris is the best!

    Top notch eats near the Capitol. My favorite here is the tamale corn cakes appetizer. It's a unique dish that encapsulates the local Mexican culture. The cheese pull is beautiful, the soft inside texture of the corn cake with the outside being crisp and topped with mild chile verde salsa and sour cream. Perfect. Absolutely perfect. Enjoyed the shrimp po boy, lots of crunchy shrimp piled on soft bread. French fries were delicious as well. Service here is great. Restaurant is clean and caters to high end customers and even the most casual diners. We ordered the cream churro's with ice cream. It was a lot but we finished it all :-D House Kitchen is not to be overlooked. With plenty of downtown options this place should be checked off your list sooner than later.

    A group dinner while on a Collette tour was enjoyed by 43 travelers at House Kitchen & Bar. We had a special group dinner menu with different starters, entrees and desserts. Such an amazing delicious dinner was enjoyed by all! Great customer service by the restaurant!!

    Sweet corn tamale cakes.  Appetizer but ate as entree. Sweet and savory.

    Food: great lunch, happy hour or dinner spot. The food is fresh and tasty. They started offering daily specials which is new and so worth trying. Service: great! Always love the chef and owner assists and will deliver food and check in. Ambiance: sharp with clean colors and lines. Perfect for business lunches or a date night. Recommend reservations as they get pretty busy during the lunch hour and when events are happening at the G1 Center. They have great out door seating with umbrellas when the weather is nice. It is a relatively small inside dining area but they maximize space. Great large square bar area with seating.

    Salmon poke bowl

    Been coming here for years, way before covid. I noticed a few things that are no longer on their menu, but food and service is still great. For items that were on the menu but are no longer on the menu, such as the Salmon Poke bowl, ask your server, they may still have it.

    The sticky fries & French dip! Oh my!! We made sure to get the fresh horseradish and also the cream horseradish, so yummy!! I'll definitely come back!! Love this place!!

    Looking for a good spot in Downtown Sacramento? House Kitchen & Bar is a solid choice. Their menu has a great selection of classic comfort food with a contemporary twist. I personally loved the Braised Short Rib. It's tender, savory, and so filling. If you're just looking for something quick and to share, the Sticky Fries are a great option! They're perfectly crispy and have a unique flavor. The large portion size is also a plus with it. Food here comes out quickly and the service is attentive and prompt. Definitely a must try restaurant.

    Santa Fe salad with chicken
    Brooke V.

    Came here for dinner. The food was good. I really liked the corn cakes. 4/5 for taste of food, but all of the dishes were outrageously priced. $21 for the Santa Fe salad that was 90% lettuce, $14 or so for the corn cakes and wares. 2/5 for cost. We also got a purple reign and a double bubble. The drinks were terrible and I think it's mostly because they use low end alcohol like casamigos for the purple reign. The double bubble was supposed to be vodka, apple cider, and champagne and it had barely any flavor. 0/5 for drinks. The restaurant itself is nice with comfortable booths and the server was super nice. Unfortunately with the good food and service this did not outweigh the cost of everything. I don't think we would come back, especially because we like to enjoy good cocktails with dinner and I wasn't impressed with their options and the ones we got were not very good.

    Was attending music festival and tried out a trick called PFD. They said they are owned by house kitchen and bar. "Best French dip in sac". It was pretty darn good. Soft bread. Thin sliced meat. Flavorful au jus. I like it cause it's light and not overloaded with salt or other seasoning. Just a good light sandwich. Definitely gotta try the restaurant soon

    Conveniently located in the heart of downtown Sacramento this lunch spot is always on the must try list. The service is always awesome and speedy because they understand people usually have to get back to work. The food is perfect! Feels like home cooking with quality ingredients. Everything and I do mean everything is delicious. You can't go wrong.

    Short rib sticky fries
    Janelle H.

    A great amount of seating with booths, the bar, and an outside patio. You can park in the 555 garage around the corner and get your parking validated. Food was pretty good..! - Short rib sticky fries : fries were nice and crispy with a delicious glaze but there barely was any short ribs on it. The meat that was on it was small scraps / crumbles and sparse. - Sweet corn tamale cakes : didn't really have any flavor and was TOO sweet for me. Wouldn't order again but my friend liked them - Salmon BLT was pretty tasty but the piece of salmon was too small for the bun. The fries it comes with are very flavorful but can start tasting a lil too salty eventually. - I don't remember the name of the drink of got, but it was a house drink with Bourbon. Pretty much like an Old Fashioned. It was STRONG, like straight bourbon lol. But I enjoyed it. - Service by Rachel B was OUTSTANDING! She was so friendly and attentive without smothering us. Great smile and really made us feel comfortable and welcomed.

    Prime rib french dip w fries
    Carolyn S.

    It was a bit noisy here so that was a draw back but aside from that a very pleasant experience. Some friends and I started with some appetizers and the steak fries were SO GOOD. definitely the table favorite. In addition to that I ordered the prime rib French dip which was also really really good. Now they claim it's the best French dip in Sacramento. I don't know if I can agree with THAT, but it IS a winner and you won't be disappointed! Our server was a lovely young lady who let us kind of order at our leisure with no pressure and we appreciated that. 9/10 would return

    Are you open for dining now?

    We are, Erin! :) We hope to see you soon!

    If last call is at 7:30 and I have reservations for 7:30 does that mean we cannot order drinks?

    Hi, Vanessa! We don’t make last call until 8:45pm, so you can absolutely order drinks when you’re here. See you soon! 🍸🍷🥃

    It says you close at 8, does that mean we can come right before 8 and still be served or when do you stop serving people?

    Hi, Krissie! You may come in right before 8, and we will be happy to serve you! We don’t stop serving prior to our 8pm closing. We hope to see you soon! :)

For whatever reason I'm sure is probably because I went there late at night, the Cabbage wasn't tasting like I normally like it to be. It was really soggy, not crisp and very salty. Yet this is just one night of tasting It. Whenever I eat It is VERY, VERY, VERY DELICIOUS. So my suggestion would be don't go there to eat cabbage an hour before closing.

Trip two and Three: 4/25 and 4/28 the lady with the locs is amazing and I wish I interacted with her from the beginning. After the initial interaction two weeks ago I probably would have never returned however after randomly seeing the offering on Too Good To Go App the nice lady at the store was phenomenal with her service. We had ribs each time and while I was irked the first order didn't include any I'm definitely not a drench my meat gal either. Hoping next time I get something other than BBQ but who knows what I will try next. I'm sure I'll return and the next time I will get her name

I hadn't been since last summer and was happy to return. Parking can be a bit hectic, but once you're inside, the atmosphere makes up for it. It's a family-owned spot, and you can feel it right away -- everyone is kind, welcoming, and takes the time to check in on you. We came for breakfast, but they also offer lunch and barbecue options, so there's plenty to choose from depending on when you go. They've also expanded and now have a location in Elk Grove. I ordered the French toast plate, which came with thick-cut slices of bread, eggs, and bacon. The French toast was soft on the inside with a nice golden finish, full of flavor without being overly sweet. The eggs were well seasoned, and the bacon was cooked just right. BB ordered the cheeseburger with fries and a side of grits. The burger was juicy with grilled onions and melted cheese, and the fries had that crispy, beer-battered texture. Everything came out hot and satisfying. Overall, a great spot for comfort food with genuinely friendly service. Definitely planning to come back -- especially for the biscuits and gravy next time.

Kids chocolate chip pancakes was good too. Fresh and crispy edges. The fruit it comes with was a good amount. Nothing was wasted. Mashed potatoes were moist buttery and didn't need any gravy! Mac n cheese was good. Great option for kids.
