Nice, romantic. Great for date night located in the Hyatt. Nice cocktails. Dinner menu was nice and not overly complicated. The rooftop lounge on the 6th floor is really fun. Overall, a very relaxed and pleasant experience. Valet service is free for 2 hrs.

Dinner at The Grange was outstanding. We had the Dine Downtown menu which was superb. Our cocktails were delicious. Service was really great. Our server anticipated what we needed, checked in, the service team made sure our water was refilled, our cutlery was appropriate to each course, and the Manager came by a couple times to check in. We will definitely be back soon!

I will be returning to Ella. This initial experience was a lunch time that. I enjoyed the burger and learned about the process of creating the meal, the baking of the bread, and the quality of meat used, just how this meal differs from Ella's sister resturants. The NA tonic was refreshing, I look forward to giving their signature G&T a try. The ambiance is refreshing in Sacramento, where we have so few high-end establishments. I'd recommend visiting solo at the bar, at a table with a friend's or a private space to enjoy your party. Pricing was fine, overall comparable to area resturants.
