Best Casual Restaurants in North Natomas

This was my first time at the restaurant. I see why Echo and Rig got many 5 start ratings. The service was top notch. All three of us loved our food. I really like the entire space. We will be back and tell our friends of the wonderful experience we had.

We had a great meal. The staff and service was great. Loved the steaks and the drinks.

We stayed at the Kimpton Sawyer nearby on Christmas Eve and had our dog w us. Polanco was one of the few restaurants that was both dog friendly and open that evening. Although they closed early (understandably) we were able to get 5:00pm reservations and sat outside in their covered area with outside heaters and we were completely comfortable. Although we were the only outside diners, they provided excellent service. The food is truly exceptional too. We’ve eaten they before and every time we were all very happy with our meal choices. OpenTable enabled us to secure the reservation (somewhat last minute) so we were had no worries for our Christmas Eve dinner plans.

Server was great! Beautiful decor and ambience! Carbona pasta had fatty, quite hard chunks of ham that I had to spit out, not very hot, but otherwise tasted pretty good. Loved the salad with the special cheese crisps and bread was scrumptious. It was pricey.

The food and service at the Firehouse is consistently above average, way above average. The ambience in the main dining room is perfect for us, with music that is pleasant. Most restaurants play music so loud that you either don’t go back, or you run away from. At the Firehouse you can actually carry on a conversation. The food was excellent, perfectly seasoned and cooked to perfection. The wait staff is very attentive. We look forward to dining at the Firehouse again and again. Thank you Firehouse for being so reliable.
