OT: Restaurants

I'll take a giovanni's Bronx bomber as my pizza of choice. I also like chops, not as pricey as mortons or ruths chris, but they serve a nice slab of aged meat. I love their prime rib sandwich for a lunchtime treat.
33rd st bistro and paesanos are a couple of the establishments I frequent as they have great food, good portions, and prices and environment to match. That is one reason I bought in East Sac; so close to downtown and the resturaunts.

Chinois:

http://www.chinoiscitycafe.com/ (Asian fusion? I havent been there since they moved but the food was very good)

If you are looking to have a fun time, with good food, and a place that is great to take a lady friend I might suggest Benihana. The meal is good, the prices aren't that bad and the atmosphere is a blast. They cook your food in front of you NINJA style

I am also a huge fan of Scott's seafood which is always dependable for a nice seaffod meal. I suggest their calamari

[kdblove_99]

Was not a fan of Benihana.

I forgot about Scott's. Love Scotts my wifes favorite meal is there. It's the swordfish. the whole thing is incredible.

Its a Swordfish on a rice cake and also comes with a very little grilled half avocado with a mango chutnee in the hole of the avocado. It could be my favorite also!

I went to the Melting Pot a while back and enjoyed it.

Squeeze In make a dang fine burger

I've been on a Boudin SF kick lately

Though an odd place for it, Leatherby's makes a excellent crab sandwich that I crave thinking about it.

But perhaps the Waterboy was the best meal I had out in Sacramento.

Dang tootin' on the crab sando!-)
Squeeze inn burgers are great too!-) while on the flattop they top'em with grated cheese place ice around them then cover em' with a lid!-) makes for some crazy cheezy goodness.

!-)

Another work of art at leatherby's is the daddy dave's sundae!-) every one should be treated to one of those on their b-day!-)
One word huge!-) order one and try not to smile!-)

[kdblove_99]

Daddy Daves is nice!

Burgers, I have heard great things about Squeeze inn. My favorite is California Burgers.

I hated Hamburger Mary's I had heard great things but that was not a tasty burger. MMM How i like a Tasty Burger. My GF is a Vegetarian which pretty much makes me a vegetarian. But i do like a Tasty burger

If you vencher out a little Big A's in grass valley is good and also Nations in Vacaville!

Forgot Best burger i have ever had is in Hawaii and no its not that Cheeseburger in paradise. Did not like that one either.

But a place called Cool Cat its the Luna burger. It was dynamite! Its in Lahina Its across from That park with the crazy tree

If you don't mind going across the river, check out Whitey's Jolly Cone on Jefferson in West Sac. Better yet go in the summer time when you can have a fresh peace milkshake with your "Special"

[bladeruner143]

I second (or third) Ruth Chris! That place had the best rib eyes I've ever tasted!!!

[kdblove_99]

Agree Blade, Ribeye is my favorite cut of beef and Ruths Chris cannot be topped!

[sagitariuscbc]

We used to have a place called merlino's (sp?) Shut down some time ago but their still is a little trailer on stockton blvd. that sells orange, strawberry, and pineapple freezes (other food too) using the original recipe. The location is across the street of the old fair grounds on stockton blvd. Also luigi's pizza is near by and worth a visit too!-)

[sagitariuscbc]

Nationwide burgers are great here in sac!-) not sure if they open still though!-) I haven't been since they moved!-) look into it though.
Also jim denny's but check their hours of buisness not open all the time!-)

Doug, I always knew there was something about you. We went there for my wifes birthday a couple years ago and it had to be my worst experience of all time. Service was terrible, food was equally as bad and in the middle of our meal, which we had reservations for, they asked to to move because a bigger party was coming in. They didn't even comp anything for our hassle.

Ok, sorry about the negative rant. I saw that and I could not stop typing.

Original perry's if you never been there order items with the american flags next to them also make sure to order a complete meal. It will include dessert and choice of beverage. The place is a truck stop. They are open 24/7.
Pancake circus on broadway!-)

!-)

[Marko9]

Last time I went by, Pancake circus was closed

[MandM]

Merlino's closed but re-opened with the same food and freeze recipies under the name Hagen's. This guy and his wife worked there for years and have kept the tradition going at the original location, Walnut and El Camino in Carmichael.

[AJPACINO23]

Jordan, when is your next outing, and where have you decided to go?

[sagitariuscbc]

They've been talking about closing the p circus for a while. Hit them up sooner than later. I am a good eater but a full stack is to much!-)

Good to hear about merlino's!-) I like to get all of the flavors in one!-)
