Ella Dining Room & Bar

My dear friends took me here for a Christmas meal last night. I was impressed with the pig ears and bone marrow. Of course, the rest of everything we ordered was fantastic. They even warmed up my milk. Winter outdoor dining is great here due to the heaters. Some homeless yelling on K street as the norm and the loudness of the light rail passing near us made the ambiance feel like "downtown." Hopefully, the future of Sacramento will not deteriorate for the next generation. Back to Ella, check this place out. Happy hour on weeknights is crowded. It says a lot with their service, treatment of customers, and the food they serve.

This restaurant was amazing! The experience was great, the service was awesome, and the food was delicious. The steak was cooked to perfection and the chicken (although looked interesting since it was fried) was very very tasty and delicious! The Duck Confit potato's were the perfect side for the steak and the Parmesan Risotto was perfect with the chicken. The one thing I would do different is order less sauce with the steak. The steak was sitting in a pool of sauce so it took away from the true flavor of the steak. Other than that, the food was absolutely amazing. I also wanted to give a shoutout to our waiter. I drink tons of water when I eat yet my cup never went dry during our time there. This has only ever happened twice to me so hats off to them.

What a great place for a wonderful meal and superb service. Very nice place and a great meal. They have valet parking which is fantastic. Especially at lunch. There is also parking around the corner in a large paid lot. I started off with my client a butternut squash soup. Amazing then to the main course. My client is a vegetarian and he found a delightful dish. Make a reservation and be ready to be wowed.

Fine dining with multiple tasty options. I went for a sponsored group meal with options already chosen for us. The food was served family style. We were seated in a private area and the staff were quite attentive to our needs. A word of caution: If you are solo dining or on a date be aware that for the price the portion sizes are small. This is a special occasion restaurant to celebrate whatever. All in all great good and great service.

From start to finish this experience was lovely! The gin and tonic was delicious with the house made tonic. We started with the bone marrow - the sweet jelly coupled with the savory marrow was a fabulous match. The lobster tower and stonefruit salad were exceptional as well. The space is gorgeous but the restaurant itself is quite loud in my opinion.

Another spectacular visit to Ella, Sacramento’s premier fine dining restaurant. For celebrations, this is our go-to. I often bring clients here for closing dinners or birthdays. On Friday, I had the Randall’s margarita named after the restaurant’s owner. We had a selection of appetizers and split the fried chicken. Lobster corn dogs are a must. I’m fairly sure they’re a seasonal item and I’ll be sad when they’re gone. The ambiance and decor are a 10 for me.
