    Black Mole, delicious and rich mole
    Sonia H.

    Stopped by for lunch on a Sunday morning at Oaxaca and was promptly seated in their outdoor patio. The standout here is their mole sauce--rich, complex, and deeply satisfying. We had the black Mole and you can taste the layers of spice, chocolate, and slow-cooked depth in every bite. It's the kind of sauce that elevates everything it touches, whether it's poured over tender chicken or served alongside fresh tortillas (which by the way they have Blue corn tortillas). Also ordered the tacos de Barbcoa which were delicious with tender juicy beef. I ordered some "elote" which was very disappointing, the corn was bland and mushy..wouldn't recommend the corn on the cob. But if you want delicious Mole, then this is the spot for you!

    Yum!

    Going to Oaxaca this afternoon felt a bit like a mini vacation! The atmosphere is so welcoming, festive and comfortable, and the food and beverages were delicious! My sister and I had the Michelina's, mine was with mezcal and hers with tequila. They were a great size and so tasty! We shared the barbacoa tacos and the guacamole/chips/salsa. The prices were reasonable and I can't wait to go back!

    Came in on a Saturday afternoon. I initially wanted to go somewhere else, but that other place was busy. Luckily, Oaxaca was a nice cute restaurant in Oak Park! Not that many seating inside so we were seated outside. The Mole Tasting was pretty cool. Between the three different ones, it really confused me in a good way how one was sweet but another was more savory. I did have to ask for more chips as it felt like it wasn't nearly enough. I also ordered Tacos de Barbacoa, which was just okay. Overall, this is a nice place, but I don't see anything too special about it! Cute spot to hang out with friends.. it just wasn't for me. Even their drinks meny was sub-par

    Delicious moles, and bright, cheery atmosphere at this new, more upscale Mexican restaurant. A creative menu with craft cocktails make this a unique eatery. Small indoor seating area but an expansive outdoor dining patio (though closed when we were there due to the cold and rainy weather). Was a bit disappointed that the kitchen ran out of chicken, but the carne asada made a nice substitute in the Enmoladas. Chips and salsa not included but can be purchased. Busy, but hard working, friendly wait staff. A bit pricier than typical Mexican fare, but the moles were well prepared and delicious.

    Foods is very delicious and authentic. If you want to have a great experience training authentic Oaxaca flavors; This is the place. The decoration is really colorful. Service is really good, people are very friendly. If you like mezcal or want to try it for the first time, I recommend your hai place. They have a big variety of mezcals. The only inconvenience of this place, they have only 4 tables inside, when the weather is cold outside you have to wait a lot to get a table inside. Besides that the places is perfect.

    This is a cool spot in Oak Park in Sac. Easy to drive by as it doesn't look like much from the street. We came on a drizzly evening and sat inside. Not a lot of tables. Large outside patio which looked awfully inviting had the weather been nice. Small inside bar. Colorful decor. They are known for their mole which we ordered. Unfortunately, they were out of chicken which was disappointing so we had beef. Still very tasty. Chicken next time! Tequila Cocktails are quite popular. Nice to see more & more eateries popping up in Oak Park

    So far, we've been here twice. Once just for cocktails during their soft opening, and the second time was last month (October) to check out the 2025 Sacramento Vegan Chef Challenge menu. That first visit was really fun as the cocktails were delicious and staff were friendly, welcoming, and talkative. The second visit was a little less inviting, but the food and drinks were still quality. Furthermore, I very much appreciate their participation in this year's Vegan Chef Challenge and the variety of vegan options offered. I had wanted to order the appetizer that showcased the three vegan moles, but our server must have misheard me I thought at first, because she asked which mole I wanted. I don't know why I didn't just repeat myself, but I said amarillo, thinking maybe I was the one who misread and you could pick one in appetizer size instead of all three? Turns out no, I should have repeated myself. No matter. I ended up with the entree for the amarillo mole with plantains, which was so tasty, and plenty to share with DO. No disappointment there, though our server was all business. Also ordered was the jackfruit and red mole vegan tamale that comes with a sample of the mole negro, so I did get to try them all! The tamale was a little dry, but Dave says it's very hard to make a tamale without lard. It tasted great regardless, honestly. Additionally, we ordered the guacamole to share, along with a meat eater entree for mi amor, I forget which. Everything was very good, we agreed. The mole negro was my favorite of the three moles. Nothing will ever beat Dave O.'s Auntie Coco's mole, but the chefs here were doing amazing work. I also loved my watermelon raspberry marg. Don't skip ordering drinks here, even if you don't drink alcohol (if you're a fresh fruit juice person I mean, by all means do what you want). They have such fresh ingredients and pull out all the stops. We also like the atmosphere and decor, though the last visit had us sitting close to a med student talking mess about blessedly mostly other staff and not patients. They were kind of loud, but at the same time it was interesting to listen to lol. We would definitely come back if in the area. Thank you Oaxaca for participating in the 2025 Sacramento Vegan Chef Challenge! Parking: street, unmetered, no attached lot Bathroom Report: available, but did not visit Vegan Corner: they have had vegan options both times I have visited, but I am unsure how many they have at any given time

    This review is more about the service than the food. There were multiple entrances to Oaxaca, and we entered from the side door. It looked like we walked in the wrong door, so we walked through the restaurant and out the front door. The waitress did not acknowledge us until her third passing as we waited by the front door. She told us to sit anywhere and she'll bring the menu. We asked for a high chair and she said she'll bring one out. We had to ask for a high chair three different times by two different servers until our waiter brought it out after our food came out. The food was good. We all finished our meals. When we asked for check, we waited longer than usual. I had to go in and pay. I paid by card so it was just a tap and when I asked for a printed receipt, I found that there was a "kitchen retention" fee of 3.5%. It was too late for me to question as I already paid, but future diners, please be aware.

    Beautiful patio seating.

    Great atmosphere, awesome service, and yummy food! If not sure what mole to try, don't worry, they have mole tasting and from there you can decide which one is your fave, and believe me, it won't be easy! One of my favorite dishes is the barbacoa tacos. Delicious!

    Wow! Not often I go speechless but every item was a unique first that left me amazed. You can taste the homemade quality in every dish. Extremely friendly staff. Jorge is the BOSS of mixing drinks and explaining the various mezcals. Mile-each unique, silky and delish! Small in size with limited indoor seating but beautiful additional outdoor areas and worth any wait you might have in getting a table. Wanna feel like you're vacationing in Mexico? You have to give this place a try!

    Big fan of Oaxaca! I visited twice within the same week and if that isn't saying anything... I don't know what is. I've seen their restaurant on my for you page on TikTok, and had to come try it. If anything, I thought I was going to be disappointed because it was going to be one of those restaurants where it's definitely picture worthy, but the food wasn't authentic. That wasn't the case here!! I loved everything I've tried so far. The al pastor tacos were a hit for me, and my friend ordered the pozole rojo and she claimed it might taste better than her mom's (she speaks very highly of her mom's homemade pozole). I also got the watermelon raspberry margarita and my friend had one of their beers. On a separate occasion, I came here to grab drinks with a friend before we headed out to a concert at the Golden 1 Center because I KNEW she would love the watermelon raspberry margarita. It's the perfect mix of sweet and tangy, I love the tajin on the rim, and it's dangerously good. This time, we ordered herb guacamole (chips and guac, essentially) and DEVOURED it. The main hitter wasn't even the guac, it's the side molcajete salsa they add to the order that's so good! I would buy a container of it just to take home. The restaurant is airy with tons of natural light. Both times I came during the evening while the sun was setting. The outdoor space is gorgeous! There are two patios: one out front and one on the side of the restaurant. Both were beautiful and if you sit where the side patio is, you'll be able to see a mural on the wall that adds to the vibe of the place. The second time I visited, I sat at the bar which sits about 6 people comfortably. There's not that much indoor seating, so if it's a busier time, outdoors would be the way to go. The service is a hit or miss with this place. All the employees are very nice both times I've visited, but the first time around, it took a while for anyone to bring us our check. It was near closing time and a couple tables had just arrived so we just figured they were busy working in the kitchen and at the bar.

    Al pastor tacos

    Visited this place with a friend for a girls brunch date! It's super cute inside but very small! Has like 5 tables and then about 8 seats at their bar but it's a really small inside. They do have seating outside and heaters but we didn't want to be outside, way too cold. We sat at the bar which was fine for the two of us. Our drinks were sooo cute but the flavor was just okay. They don't serve chips and salsa but you can order chips and guac which is served with a little side of salsa. The guac was really good but the chips were are super hard and just not it for us. the al pastor tacos which were lacking flavor, the pineapple chunks saved it. The grilled chicken tacos were good and a safe choice. The Barbacoa tacos were by far the best ones, super flavorful and delicious. The staff was super friendly so that was nice. We are glad we tried it but probably won't be back

    Grilled elote
    Steven S.

    Tried this place on a whim on a random Monday night and was pleasantly surprised. Menu is concise but offers a lot of interesting food/drink options and there's inside/outside seating options. Everything we ordered was delicious but we especially enjoyed the Tacos de Barbacoa, Guacamole and the Tamarind Margarita. The margarita was delicious: spicy, salty, and sweet with a smoky mezcal undertone. The serving sizes did leave a bit to be desired, inside seating can be a bit "cozy" and parking is limited. But overall, would definitely come back, especially to try their coffee drinks and other menu items.

This is the entrance to the speakeasy. In prior years the club was open only to members but it is now open to the public. Ambiance: I visited post New Years so they still had some holiday decorations up but really enjoyed the upper class feel. It really doesn't feel like any of the speakeasies I have been to before as it was much brighter and more open space but enjoyed it nonetheless. Food/Drinks: I strictly stayed with Espresso Martinis but they were prepared pretty well. The flatbreads also tasted amazing! They also had a list of different holiday themed drinks for those inclined for some holiday cheer. Service: The service here was super quick. The server came to our table so we did not have to head over to the bar. They came a couple of times to check on us but were attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the drink options! Definitely worth a check out if you are looking for a friendly public speaker easy.

It seems like they're limiting how many people are let in at once, and honestly, I'm here for that kind of crowd control.

We also all tried the shooters, I had the Nesbitt, and he got the Perry. Every drink was delicious, no complaints from any of us. The lady helping us with our order was super sweet, patient, and friendly, and the guy who seated us deserves a shoutout too. There was a small mix-up, but he made it right and got us that perfect fireplace seating. Gold star service. Overall, I'd rate the experience a solid 9 out of 10. And can we talk about the bathroom for a sec? A black toilet paired with deep green walls? Obsessed. Trophy Club is absolutely becoming one of my favorite spots. Now I just need to check it out when it's not in theme mode... but let's be honest, I live for the theme nights.

I remember from the video they said this was considered a "bartenders bar",the kind of spot that that bartenders and workers in the industry would hangout after their shifts-I liked the sound of that. Walking up to where I thought the bar was located,it was kinda funny because it was just an innocent looking blue door with the words "Cocktail" along the side-doesn't look like much at all,I'd imagine I've walked by this place many times without thinking of ever going in-that was changing this time. When I walked in I 100% knew I was stumbling upon something special-it was a tiny place but it was overflowing with energy,not many booths in this bar and it may be the smallest bar I've ever been to but it felt special.Looking at the clientele I felt like I was with my people,it was so cool in there.This is the kind of place I would take my wife and any of my friends before a special night out and be it a dinner or a concert or a production at Safe Performing Arts Center and feel like it would set the right vibe for the night. Looking over the menu,they had some very interesting looking drinks,the wife went with a French 75($12.00)and I went with a Pecan Brown Sugar Old Fashioned($16.00)The bartenders are very friendly and super personable and really took their time and took pride in their drinks-I had never had an Old Fashioned quite like that one,but it went down super smooth-I loved i-I look forward to going there again asap. A coupe of things about this bar-they do only have 1 unisex bathroom,it was very clean.Also this place is so old school that they are a "Cash-Only " bar.They do have an atm in the bar in case you forget your cash.They have a big fish tank behind the bar that really put the room together nicely-I liked it a lot. In closing,if you ever find yourself in the Ice Blocks part of midtown and want to experience an awesome bar that feels very unique-head on down to Frank and have a drink or two-you won't regret it-I think I may have found my new favorite bar in all of Sacramento. PS-I loved talking to the bartender telling me how they don't carry Don Julio but have many varieties of Fortaleza instead-a true IYKYK moment if there ever was one-this place rocks.

Yes, lady--we can read, and I hope your boss can too, because you were an embarrassment to the establishment! We didn't ask for the teenage insecurity and projection...we only wanted a drink. Well we got the drink and the flavor was meh. We didn't even tip. Big tab...0 dollar tip. Most likely won't be back. If you're a bartender...be courteous and stay off your fxkin laptop/phone.

They have a great selection of gin, rum, champagne, and whiskey, and I often lean on the staff for drink suggestions because they're really good at recommending something you might not normally order. A few times now they've pointed me toward a drink that ended up being a hidden gem. I've been here a few times and it's always a great time whether you're catching up with friends or doing a date night. The food is also surprisingly good and pairs well with the cocktails. It is definitely on the pricier side, but that's part of the experience. Also, because the space is small and intimate, reservations fill up quickly and they do require a deposit, which goes toward your final bill. Helpful tip: make a reservation ahead of time and don't be afraid to ask the staff for drink recommendations -- they're excellent at guiding you to something special. Final verdict: absolutely worth it.

We ended up going with a few drinks that day. -Strawberry Negroni-($13.00)-This one blew my socks off-my favorite drink in the works is a Negroni but this bar makes a Strawberry version of it and let me tell ya-it's dynamite-10/10 rating -Old Fashioned-($12.00)-This is my go-to order at most bars because it's pretty reliable and most bars can make a decent one and I'd say they make a very solid one here-8.2/10 rating -Cucumber Gimlet with Tequila-($11.00)-This drink was made with lime-sweet vermouth and tequila-it was very refreshing and went down way too easy-rating 8.4/10 -Mezcal mystery drink-($12.00)-This was a drink the bartender made that after we declared our love for the smokiness of mezcal-I wouldn't be able to ask for it again unless I got the same waitress but if your a mezcal lover like I am-this drink was top of the line-smokiness intensity off the charts-9.1/10 rating So a little about the place that I picked up during my visit-I guess they serve food-I didn't know that but after my 2nd drink I looked back and saw this entire dining area with table side grills-so I guess the customers cook their own meats and such-pretty cool concept-my visit was strictly a drinking visit so I didn't partake but it looked pretty cool. I guess they are opened most days from 4p-12am and until 2am on Friday and Saturday nights. They do not have a dedicated parking lot for this bar but they are located near 34th and Broadway-so unlimited street parking is available for those who drive here. In closing-I really really enjoyed my visit to The Butterscotch Den and I was pretty sure I had found my new favorite bar in Sacramento with a bar in the Ice Blocks but I am pretty sure that has changed and The Butterscotch Den is my new favorite bar in the greater Sacramento area-if you find yourself looking for a new spot to enjoy some adult beverages or maybe looking for a date night spot-don't hesitate to make your way over to The Butterscotch Den-the place is a true hidden gem. PS-They have a Disco Ball in their lounge area and a vintage non-working cigarette machine-the coolest I tell ya.

    This is a great spot, especially on Tuesdays. It's game night! Was just there and the owner, Jason…read morewas calling out bingo with his bro pulling numbers. They also have a Plinko set up going (if you watch the price is right you know what I'm talking about) where you get to play to get discounts on drinks. Awesome! The bartenders are cool (props to Deanna). She makes a mean old fashioned. Interestingly enough, it comes out of a tap! Who knew? Any day is a great day to visit. The food is good, the drinks are good, and so is the crowd. Check it out!

    Been here a few times after the farmer's market, and I've always had an acceptable time. On a…read morerecent brunch, I split the loco moco and musubi bowl with my gf. To start, it was the kentucky derby, so we started with some mint juleps. Man, it was just straight bourbon. There wasn't any flavor to the drink and it really didn't sit well with my stomach, so it wasn't a great start. The loco moco and musubi plate were solid. Honestly, great umami flavors from the filipino / hawaiian heritages, but I felt the proportions to be small and wasn't fully satisfied at the end. At the end of a meal like that, I prefer to be completely satiated and I always kind of leave this place wanting, which is my biggest critique. The crab rangoon was solid, and probably the highlight for me. In the end, this can be a 4 star place considering the vibe. It has a cool patio and the inside bar is dope. There a few TVs to view sports. It can be a great brunch spot honestly. However, I want to bring it down a notch bc of personal food experience. I still would come back. Regarding the service, you order at the bar. Everyone is very nice. It can take a minute. If you have a squad, I would have someone on seat duty, because it can get packed.
