    My wife and I had a wonderful belated Valentine’s Day dinner at Allora. The Polpo and Mussel starters were magnificent. Her entree of Waygu steak was very tender and flavorful. My scallops were excellent. Our waitress remembered us from previous visits and was friendly and knowledgeable of all the options on the menu. When the bar did not have the whiskey I requested they suggested a replacement that was a perfect substitute. The service , atmosphere and food were impeccable. A memorable experience.

    My wife and I first experience at Ruth Chris was on August of 2024 to celebrate her birthday where we met out server Kim who made our experience wonderful. We decided to return the day after VDay (2025) for a late celebration and luckily she was our server once again, And even after 6 months had passed she not only remembered us but remembered our entire order. Kim’s energy, personality and customer service is wonderful it’s hard to find people with such positive welcoming qualities. We will definitely continue to make the 1hour 30minute drive not only for the food but for Kim. Thank you Kim for being so kind and making our experiences so amazing.

    This was our first fine dining experience as a couple and the Valentine’s day menu was perfect! We got to take anything we didn’t eat home, and their champagne was delicious! We had a perfect night, and all of the staff was amazing to us. We’ll definitely be back!

    Still my favorite eats in Sac. Valentine’s meal was amazing. My wife and I will always return and bring friends and visitors because we trust Canon. My only request is please get some non alcohol beer. Literally the biggest trend in food and beverage right now, everyone has great ones… and $8 bitter sodas are just not where it’s at. Normalize more non alcohol options!

    The experience was nothing short of exceptional! From the moment we arrived, the staff was attentive and friendly, making us feel right at home. We kicked off our culinary adventure with the tantalizing Tuna Tartare, bursting with flavor. The lobster bisque was out of this world, rich and creamy—every spoonful a delight! For the main course, my husband savored the juicy pork chops, while I indulged in the exquisite sea scallops that danced on my palate. Each dish was a masterpiece, leaving us both raving about the incredible meal we just enjoyed!
