    Ambiance was great. Food was good but a bit on the pricier side for what we got. Although, dessert did make up for it. We had one person seat us and when we asked about the specials, we were told someone else had to tell us. After waiting a bit, the server came by and told us there weren’t any except for an appetizer special. Seems like there should be more coordination with what staff and communication. Overall- enjoyed our dinner.

    The atmosphere is second to none in midtown Sacramento. The food is good. Their cocktails are excellent. Taken the kids ( twins) for their birthday 2nd year in a row. My son orders the Waygu steak.. second year it was over cooked. Had to be sent back. The rest of the food was great, but him getting his meal after we were all finished was disappointing.

    We had an amazing server-Jackson. He seem to get when to intervene and when to let us chat. The food was seasonal, fresh and tasty. We love the patio scene, request patio seating. I have said it before and will say again” Love Paragary’s Midtown”. Do not miss dining here. To end the night, go get a night cap at Four Palm in the Fort Sutter Hotel. It makes a nice evening and a fun night out.

    Our party of 3 were disappointed with the quality of food, though the one dish we had that was good was the Smoked Trout. The service was slow, the server was not attentive and was unable to answer several basic questions about the menu. Our flatware was removed each time our dishes were cleared from the table, but we were never given replacements. We ended up taking them from the table next to us (twice!) Would have expected more from an established restaurant.

    Beautiful restaurant. The patio is stunning! The staff were incredibly cordial and friendly, and provided perfect attention. Food was hit or miss. We absolutely loved the meatballs. The chicken in the pasta and the halibut were a little on the dry side. We would definitely try again because we loved the ambiance so much.

    Food and service - excellent. Awkward three sided table for 4 where I was looking directly at the couple at the next table over and having difficulty hearing my friends because of the setup, not great. If you get seated at this strange corner table, I would be asked to move elsewhere. Maybe Paragary’s should eliminate this table all together.

    We were celebrating a double Birthday. They did honor our reservation request for patio seating, which was lovely. But, our waiter was not efficient from the beginning of the meal to the end, from taking our drink requests through dessert & paying for our meals. We were at the table 2 hours & 45 minutes, not by our choice. Our entrées were cold to semi-warm. 1 entrée was returned for replacement due to being stone cold. Our waiter disappeared between courses, leaving us for extended periods of time between courses & paying the bill. We observed tables being turned over all around us. And, people were served their courses & meals before us, who arrived after our table of 4. This was a very disappointing evening with a high price tag for such a poor meal. We would hope Paragary's would in the future employ staff who are capable of providing better service to their customers. We will seek other venues for our casual & special occasion dining in the future.

    This restaurant is a wonderful oasis in Midtown Sacramento!! The food is “farm to table” fresh with a fantastic chef who combines a delicious medley of flavors that is beautifully displayed. They have a good selection of spirits too. The patio looks like a tropical oasis with water-fall fountains and relaxing music. This is a must place to have lunch, brunch, or dinner!!!
