“Just dropped off my Slaphapper Wallyhoot to Briskit Öndagrïll over at his place, ..the Strike Three bowling ball factory so he can adjust the gyroscope for me. When I passed by Tony Baloney's I knew right then and there were I was going to eat. I've heard about Tony Baloney's but I've never been, so today I'm going to see if the urban legend is true!
Well, I don't know if they make the best sandwiches in the world..but Sactown for sure is in the top 3!
5 stars all day long. ☆☆☆☆☆“

“What me and my partner got:
Meat and cheese board 4/5
Spicy pepperoni 4/5
Riatore 3.5/5
Nectarine bread pudding 5/5

The server we had was meh, but the food and atmosphere made up for it. Not a bad place if you want something a little more upscale. I'd come here again.“

“Best Italian in Sacramento period“

“Flatbread was amazing! Fantastic local restaurant who really helps local community!“

“They have the best soup!! And I love the Spumoni💜“

“Delicious food and great service“

“Had a really great experience at olive garden. I went in for a birthday lunch and everyone there made it awesome. christian at the host stand was nice and got me seated quick, even going out of his way to ask the manager jaime a few questions for me before I sat down. Shauna took care of me the whole time, was super friendly, and checked in frequently despite the slight rush in her seating area. The food came out fast, hot, and tasted great. On my way out, a manager, Jaime, and another server, Cena, were there and they checked in just to make sure everything went well, which was cool and not something every place does. The staff all made my birthday lunch way better than i expected, I appreciated all of them. will be coming back with more people next time!“

“I have been to this location multiple times and I’ve been coming to olive garden since I was a toddler and today I had the best experience I have ever received at an Olive Garden, Elia was amazing, she tended to every need and our waters were always full! I got the unlimited soup and as soon as I got to the bottom of my plate she was ready with my next soup and salad. She is very kind very fast and with the help of the kitchen was serving quality food. This was the best experience I have ever had here. My hope is that whatever manager is reading this asks her what her secret is because they need to do a training on how amazing her service is and train more servers this way.“

“Food and service was amazing“

“One Star- The food was not what I expected. The flavors of Italy was not there. The seafood pasta- clams and Musscles, we undercooked, shrimp and scallops were low quality and bland. 0 flavor. Sauce was very lacking in flavor. Couldn't tell if there was garlic in it or not. The bread had a distinct hint of burnt flavor on the back of my tounge. Not sure if you need to request bread or parmesan or what but I saw lots of people getting extra service. I definitely won't be back and maybe thats the point of giving some folks bad food or service is so their kind won't come back? Who knows but mission accomplished. I nor anyone I know will be back.“

“I recommend all of it there tiramisu is off the hook the employees are top-of-the-line and had nothing but the best experience since I’ve been there I’ll go back always and tell my friends about it“

“Fantastic food!! Reasonably priced and quick service too. Will definitely eat here any time I'm in the area!“

“They have the best soup!! And I love the Spumoni💜“

“The Service (Leah) was outstanding & our food (chicken & dumplings and the lasagna special) was AMAZING“

“YUMMMMMM!!! I have been ordering from Prepped Eats for a few years and each time they really deliver on quality and flavor (also, they deliver). It is so convenient to choose meals, have them delivered to my front door, and not have to worry about going to the grocery store that week.

My husband and I are so busy so this makes healthy eating low effort. A lot of meals are already in various fitness trackers so it’s a great way to track my macros without having to put much thought into it.

Not to mention the food is SO GOOD!! I’m not sure how they get garlic-pepper steak so perfect but I dream about it sometimes.“

“Pizzas are delicious! Service is outstanding. Love the laid back and fun atmosphere! Family friendly.“

“Delicious pizza (we had the heirloom tomatoes with bacon) and it was so hot when I got to take it home and my kids and I were super impressed by the flavors and size. One of the best pizzas in Sacramento.“

“This place is one of the best Italian restaurants in the Sac area hands down. The lasagna is amazing & a great portion for the price. The have the best old fashioned in all of Sac! The service is top notch & ambiance is perfect. Make sure to make reservations, many people love this place like I do so it's gets packed quickly. Come here, you will not regret it!“

“Participated in 3 dinners for this year's Dine Downtown event and Willow was the best of the three. Fresh-baked Focaccia and Lamb Bolognese were the highlights this year. Hidden gems from Klinker Brick on the wine list. Blood Orange gin cocktail was herbaceous and tasty. Need to book a return trip to try the rest of the menu.“

“My daughter has been at the hospital with my sick infant granddaughter for 3 days now. I ordered her a pizza today through Grubhub. The pizza arrived with a GET WELL SOON message on the inside of the box. Such a sweet and caring touch! Thank you, Delish!!“

“Contemporary atmosphere, friendly staff, and delicious food! We enjoyed a selection of craft brews, the beet salad with buratta, the Brescia wood-fired pizza, and affogato for dessert. Dining at the bar, we enjoyed a spirited conversation with Tyler. It was a delightful evening!“

“Very cool place. Everything we had was great! Big portions. Nice menu.“

“You know I don't give 5s but I tell ya. I walked into this pizza place on a whim and boy oh boy was I impressed!! I have NEVER found or understood the whole New York concept of folding your pizza over until now. My goodness the pizza experience elevated immensely.

The crust with the sauce and pepperoni all flowed and literally melted in my mouth. I always sprinkled red pepper and parmessan but this pizza didnt even need it.

There was a family that came in while I was waiting and they decided to leave. I know they are kicking themselves because this pizza is IT!!

Met the Owner's and they added even more to the pleasant experience with their customer service. I'll definitely get to Sac to try again!“

“I've eaten at, picked up from and received deliveries from this Lamppost Pizza since 2001. Always delicious and order is always accurate. The other reviews sound like the same instance using different IDs. We have never had a problem with the food or the service.“

“Great food and service! You can’t go wrong with anything you order here!“

“Finally got the chance to come with a friend for lunch after strolling around the farmer’s market. This restaurant is beautiful inside and out, has bar seating, tables, and a spacious patio underneath lovely midtown trees. The inside is super bright, lots of decor on the walls, flowers everywhere, and the energy was great.

We came on an early Saturday afternoon with no reservation but were seated after 20 minutes. Even then, the restaurant was packed! I would definitely recommend getting a reservation if you plan to come later in the evening and/or have a large group with you (it was only two of us).

I decided to order the soup of the day, which I believe was a squash/butternut squash soup, Parmesan and truffle fries, and my friend ordered the truffle macaroni and cheese with the “the hipster” cocktail. They also brought complimentary rosemary bread and oil. The bread was soft, the cocktail was great and very decent portion, the soup was perfectly balanced and went great with the toasted bread. The fries were a little cold but tasty and came with garlic aioli and ketchup. My friend said her macaroni and cheese was yummy and she would order again. The menu is full of options and we will definitely be back to try more things. Must come if wanting either a romantic night out or a lovely dinner with friends!“

“This is one of the best pizzas I ever ate you guys should try the Indian pizzas“

“So modern and sheek. Love this place! The pizza is delish and their appetizers on point👌“

“Once again I am never disappointed! Food and staff are amazing!“

“The pizza is delicious! The people are friendly and they actually care about the food being good. I loved it.“

“great food.......mmmmmmmm“

“Great food great atmosphere“

“I received a surprise birthday certificate in the mail for one pizza - and it was really good and to my taste - garlic sauce, chicken, mushrooms, green onions - very balanced and tasty, also I loved how everything was cut into smaller uniform pieces, not like huge chunks of meat here and there, thank you!

They got a nice new sofa :)“

“Place is a joke! Looks like a great deal, a tri meat meat pizza for $19.99 I clicked on it, I ordered it. They delivered me an all cheese pizza. I called them right away, they seriously argued with me that I ordered an all cheese pizza. My receipt clearly says trio pizza on it. If I had the energy I would drive there, but they're not worth that much time out of my day. Ended up costing me $30 after delivery fees, a 10% tip, and sales tax for a medium cheese pizza. Avoid this scam at all cost!!“

“Very good veggie wrap and chicken wrap! Mango Milkshake was cool and creamy- delicious.“
