Roseville,
CA
95678

Also, it sometimes can be trashed from all the moms dressed like their teen daughters digging through stuff for their bad dressed husbands.
And a conversation I had with an…

CA
95678
miika m. writes: When I use to be a size 4 in my younger twenties and my forehead and butt not lined yet with the worries of a thirty year old, J Crew was my store of alleviating clothing doldrums and in updating my usual muted colours in my closet.

Pancho's Cocina Mexicana & Grill
2021 Broadway
Sacramento,
CA
95857
Katie T. writes: My experience at Pancho's was decidedly better than Greg's. Maybe it was the 1/3 a pitcher of margaritas I consumed, but I haven't had such a good time at a meal in ages.
I shared a carnitas enchilada and the shrimp taco plate with a friend. The…

Woody's Grill and Bar
2316 Watt Ave
Sacramento,
CA
95857
Ann S. writes: We eat here a lot, mainly because it's close to home. And, because we have a ten year old; this is definitely a place for kids.
The food is good, although the menu is a bit sparse. It has the typical sandwiches and burgers. My favorite thing is…
Pyramid Alehouse Brewery
1029 K St
Sacramento,
CA
95857
Amy P. writes: You know? I don't want to like this place. But I do. Even though they passed over my suggestion for naming their Sacramento-style amber ale "Sutter's Fortifying Ale" for something dumb like K street Amber ale. Jerkasses. It was for some contest…

Sacramento,
CA

4300 El Camino Ave.
Sacramento,
CA
95857
Billy S. writes: Down below the commercial FM band, you'll find KYDS at 91.5. The station features programming by students at El Camino Fundamental High School during the daytime. It's like KVDS without the attitude. On nights and weekends, the station becomes a…

Wenelli's Pizza
4215 Arden Way
Sacramento,
CA
95864
Mattie P. writes: Wenelli's is a great little hole-in-the-wall neighborhood pizza joint. The "neighborhood" is the thoroughly unappealing intersection of Arden and Eastern (Wenelli's is tucked into a nondescript strip mall) but inside, it's like a small-town eatery…
Starbucks Coffee
4301 Arden Way
Sacramento,
CA
95864
Keith W. writes: This has to be my favorite Starbucks in Sacramento. First of all it is the closest one to my parents house, then its right next to Whole Foods. The place is usually quiet because it is a smaller establishment and the drive-thru is always packed in…

Sacramento,
CA
95864
izze d. writes: This store has saved my life more than two times (well my soccer life)! I was in dire need of new cleats because the ones I had, ripped from the toe to the middle of the shoe, leaving a huge hole. Can't play in a tournament with those. I rushed…

Sacramento,
CA
95864

Sacramento,
CA
95864
Sarah D. writes: Oh, The Long Shot. I remember when you used to be the Shadowbrook, aka "The Shadybrook" back in the day when I was 16 and would come in and have a drink every now and then and not get carded. I thought I was pretty cool. But things have definitely…
Alejandro's Taqueria
911 K St
Sacramento,
CA
95814
William B. writes: The space currently occupied by Alejandro's Taqueria was once a Taco Bell. Now, making adaptive reuse of a former fast-food joint seems like a sensible thing for any new restaurant: you don't have to do much remodeling as there is already a kitchen,…
Morelia's Taqueria
716 K St
Sacramento,
CA
95814
Sarah S. writes: I think Morelia's changed ownership a few months ago. The fam and I used to frequent this place frequently. I was especially addicted to those pickled carrots that seem to have been marinated in fire. Last couple of times we went though, it seemed…

Sacramento,
CA
95814
David L. writes: Holy pho!! Good pho at a generic Chinese food restaurant? I've heard grumblings about Yummy Choice offering pho for lunch at one of their downtown locations, but was apprehensive. Was their pho real or faux? I mean, this is a place that…
Steamers Cafe
101 K Street
Sacramento,
CA
95814
livetoeat u. writes: Come here for the coffee, don't stay here for the food.
We ordered the Cafe Mocha - deliciously smooth and rich with chocolatey taste (Ghirardelli is used) and just the right amount of espresso. This coffee certainly gives Starbucks a run for the…
Spicy Pickle
1401 O St
Ste A
Sacramento,
CA
95814
Greg S. writes: For a sandwich shop, it's perfectly adequate.
For a porn shop (which, let's face it, the name really lends itself to) it's severely lacking.

1001 6th St
Sacramento,
CA
95814
Christine K. writes: When the original Luis's on Alhambra closed, my family mourned. We had been going there my entire life and wondered what we would do without the perfect little scoops of Spanish rice and cheesy photos of Luis with celebrities on the walls.

Sacramento,
CA

My girlfriend Beverly and I were looking for a new place…
Rave
Arden Fair Mall
Sacramento,
CA
95814
Linda Z. writes: The Rave is a very small but jam packed inexpensive fad clothing store on the second floor in Arden mall. One of the only reasons I like this store is that is an easy place to find something cheap and cute to wear when you just need something…
Las Pupusas
1901 El Camino Ave
Sacramento,
CA
95815
Greg S. writes: What is a "pupusas"? Is it what my 4 year old nephew refers to diarrhea as? Is it yet another Spanish word that means "shoes"? No. Pupusas are Salvadorian fritters, saucer sized, golden-fried masa discs filled with cheese, meats, veggies or whatever…
Strings Cafe
2380 Watt Ave
Sacramento,
CA
95815
Linda Z. writes: This Strings is located in the Country Club shopping center. It has an "outside/patio" type dining area which is actually just gated seating in mall traffic and an inside dining area. It's kind of dark, but relaxing.

Sacramento,
CA

1901 Arden Way
Sacramento,
CA
95815
Faith C. writes: Ok, I never thought I'd be reviewing a mass chain store - but I seriously had a great shopping experience at LNT yesterday. Usually, good service can't be expected at such corporate megastores, but I had no less than 5 staff people at LNT yesterday…
The Bolt
2560 Boxwood St
Sacramento,
CA
95815
Christopher O. writes: No way! I'M the first person to write a review of the Bolt? WHAT? I read a review written by a self-proclaimedly self-loathing, self-homophobic San Franciscan that was pretty good a few years ago, I wish I could find it so that I could either direct…

1735 Arden Way
Sacramento,
CA
