Best Restaurants for Birthdays in Arden-Arcade

We had mole enchiladas, red enchiladas, and chile rellenos for dinner. We drank red sangria. Every diner at the table was pleased with their choice. The restaurant was decorated beautifully for Christmas, was hopping with birthday and holiday energy, was loud and bustling. Our waitress and every other server was working hard. Our waitress was apologetic about the restaurant's understaffing, but we took it in stride -- she was pleasant and attentive when with us, and we didn't wait too long for anything. If we're in Sacramento again, we'll gladly return to Zocalo Midtown, without hesitation.

Our staff got together for a holiday dinner at Seasons 52. Every meal was delicious and thoroughly enjoyed. A few of the staff had not been to the restaurant before, and it was a great experience for them. 

Environment is elegant but not stuffy. Service is superior. Our server invested time early on explaining the menu in detail which was very helpful. Pace of the four course dinner was relaxed but not too slow. The food was amazing and Allora clearly deserves its stellar reputation.

Monday's wine and dine of two salads and two entrees and a bottle of wine for $65 remains a great value and deal! Especially since Bennett's finally listened and stopped chilling the red wines! That made no sense at all! So, now my wife enjoyed her sea bass and i enjoyed the meat loaf with a perfect glass of cab and then took the rest of the bottle home!

Stopped by for a snack before a show at the Crest. Very nice comfortable room. Our server, Kaitlin was friendly and very professional. Menu is small and well focused. We had three apps and bread service; a well spiced curry soup, their signature salad and a great carpaccio with crisps, parmesan cheese and aioli. Ended with a affogato made with a decadent vanilla bean ice cream. All were well balanced, carefully prepared and well plated. Serviceable wine list; not terribly adventurous but found a nice Bichot Chablis BTG. Solid dining option--not inexpensive, but excellent value. We will be back.
