Restaurants near Sacramento City College

Paragary's does an excellent brunch. I like to go early (10:00 or 10:30 am) and enjoy the atmosphere before the main brunch bunch arrives at 11:00. David, our server, greeted us warmly and made suggestions upon request. He checked on us throughout the meal and kept our coffee cups full. Today, my friend and I each had the smoked salmon on toast. The house rye bread was very good, and plenty of cream cheese and other bits made it very special. We sat by the window, looking into the patio area, which still had a big Christmas Tree. It was a lovely spot to enjoy a final holiday weekend meal.

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.

The food was exceptionally good tonight. We did Open Table and we were seated right away. The waitress was super friendly and funny. The music was maybe slightly t too loud but it was great music!

We arrived 30 mins early but we were still able to be seated despite our party not present… That worked out wonderfully because we were both hungry and wanted to have some appetizers. The Coconut Shrimp and Crab cakes hit the spot. I ordered the Cioppino which was spot on and the bonus was they shelled it for me! The bread was delicious..Our waiter was very attentive. Thankfully, he forgot I ordered a cup of Clam Chowder because I had ordered way too much food. I even brought home leftover Cioppino for later tonite.. We ordered the Lemon Raspberry Cheesecake and it was ok- Nothing spectacular… Overall, everything was delicious. We will be back! The Valet staff was very nice as well…

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!
