Best Lunch Restaurants in Sacramento

This gem of a restaurant pleasantly surprised us! The wait staff was friendly and always ready to assist or answer questions. The menu was varied and just so happed to have things we were interested in trying. The sauces and spices were right on and we had to order two bread baskets to keep dunking! The servings were generous and we ordered too much and now have lunches for the next day. The mussels in garlic and butter were a meal onto themselves, plus the dipping bread! I definitely would recommend this restaurant!

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!

From the moment we walked in, Prelude Kitchen & Bar set the tone for an unforgettable dining experience. The service was impeccable—attentive, warm, and truly top-tier. Every dish was crafted to perfection, bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. The ambiance? Simply stunning. Elegant yet inviting, it creates the perfect backdrop for a special night out. Whether you’re here for a romantic dinner or a celebration, Prelude delivers excellence on every level. Highly recommend! ✨🍽️

With parking prices going up, we decided to try this $75 meal deal. We LOVED that the meal was themed to the play that we were seeing ("Hamilton") with Sam Adams Braised Beef Short Rib and Boston Tea Party Cream Pie. The entree was beautifully plated. They must have run out of the dessert as we were served cheesecake instead. It was OK but would have been perfect with what we were expecting instead. House wine was good as well. Our waitress was especially attentive! Service was a bit slow but it was SUPER busy so not her fault. We arrived at 5:50 and left a little after 7; good timing to get to our seats. I highly recommend booking at 5:45 so you aren't stressing about missing your curtain time. We LOVE our date nights at the Broadway series. Adding this made the evening stellar! Will do this again!

We were looking for a christmas buffet brunch. This was very good it was a good selection not too much but enough. The potatoes were cold but overall we had a good time and left very full. the service was good. we will go back again.
