Michelin Guide rated neighborhood restaurant with creative and shareable cuisine and a year-round patio."With a clear vision, a striking aesthetic and distinctive, mouthwatering flavors, Canon restaurant in East Sacramento is a stellar and welcome addition to the city’s dining scene." - 4-Stars, Sacramento Bee "Find the convivial Canon sequestered away from the downtown bustle. This cool space that contrasts deep tones against bright whites is enveloped by the aromatic smell of smoke, so it’s no surprise that the house is packed most nights. Chef Brad Cecchi is the culinary mastermind and his menu is pivoted around playful small plates." - Michelin GuideCanon is committed to a healthy and productive workplace. A 4% service fee is added to dine-in bills to help cover the cost of employee health and wellness benefits and to provide a kitchen equity stipend to our back-of-house staff.

    Have been going there for about 40 years Lina was friend and it was than and is still true today. THE BEST CHINESE FOOD I have eaten. and I have cruised most of the world. as usual ordered my favrite Shrimp with candied walnuts. Hard to decide as all dishes are prepred to be delicous and wanting more. We are most fortunate to have Frank Fats in Sacramento. For those who dont know also have meeting room for celebrations personal or business. They enhance my life and my mouth sings with the many flavors. Sheri Welles

    We would give it a five if the hostess was alert to my wife’s accessibility issues. She did not take into account she was using a walker and she was led around the restaurant in a large circle to be seated having to move patrons and chairs in order to seat her. Otherwise great service, great food and a good experience.

    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.

    Delicious food, impressive covered outdoor area that’s well-insulated and thoughtfully designed (it feels like you’re inside the restaurant and we preferred it over the actual indoor area), and friendly and knowledgeable service! Portions are small and prices are high, but it was great quality and worthwhile overall. Highly recommend for a special occasion or date night!
