Vegetarian food for EVERYONE. Delicious and creative and every meat lover we've taken there loves it. Order from a "comfort food" rich menu or sign up for the Chef's choice multi course "event." It's all good and you won't miss the meat! Whimsical hours so check first to make sure they are open.

It's an ambitious, creative and evolving reimagining of Downtown Sacramento Plaza area that the Golden One Center anchors. In addition to some new concepts for eating and shopping, check out the art installation that winds its way from the Arena to the Plaza.

Really nice neighborhood grocery store that stocks a lot of local specialties (like Pies and baked goods from Freeport Bakery) in addition to a solid selection of everything else.
