    We had quite the memorable dinner at Ella. To begin with, we ordered the fresh baked bread and butter. The bread was so very fresh, and the butter light and delicious. We also ordered the butter leaf salad with an incredible dressing. The lettuce and vegetables were so crisp and fresh, along with the incredible salad dressing...it was delightful. For an appetizer, we ordered the mushrooms with in-house made fresh ricotta cheese... another incredibly delicious symphony of flavors that melted in your mouth. Our main course was the Salmon, absolutely incredibly delicious! It was lightly grilled on the outside cooked medium.. The salmon literally melted in your mouth like a marsh mellow. By far, Ella is the very best fine dining restaurant in the Sacramento area.

    I love this place. The food is creative but not silly, original but still approachable, and every single dish is just tasty as heck. The menu has something for everyone. Staff is almost tied with food for the best part. They are so warm, attentive, and relaxed. You get great service that isn’t stifling, and they like the place - it’s so clear. It just makes the experience so lovely from start to finish. Anytime I need to have dinner in SAC, this is the place I suggest. Everyone I’ve ever brought here leaves delighted and ready to make it their own go to. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️🤷🏼‍♀️
