$31 to $50
Californian
Located in downtown Sacramento, America's Farm to Fork Capital, Grange is a culinary expression of all things local, reflecting the authentic essence and soul of the community.

The menu showcases the market-driven bounties from the state and is best described as simple, seasonal and soulful. Organically raised meats and poultry are complemented with the freshest produce available from the Central Valley, while sustainable coastal seafood is paired with a spectacular all-California wine list. The entrees are presented in a straightforward American brasserie style. Lastly, enjoy the creations from our pastry chef such as rustic artisan breads and desserts.

This Sacramento restaurant’s setting is both classic and authentic. The two-story space combines architectural elements from the building’s rich history with exposed beams and concrete columns to create a surprising and urban, loft-like atmosphere.

    If it was possible to give zero stars, I would have done it. Perhaps this was an off night but there were lots of issues - took forever to get a Cocktail, mine had barely any actually drink and was mostly one huge ice cube, a second cocktail took so long to arrive I’d lost interest - and we saw it sat on the bar for some time, so even if they were busy this is really more about incompetence on the part of the wait staff. Starters were ok but entrees were really bad - I asked for New York strip and when it came it was cut into slices - you just never do that with a steak, particularly if it’s going to sit for some time before it’s served (as this was - again it was a ridiculous wait time). My wife asked for the black cod which arrived basically baked and clearly not freshly cooked and no evidence of the miso. Even the bread was an issue. So bad. The only thing they did right was not charge us. The couple next to us also had several issues with their food, in case you think we are being unfair.

    The service was extremely slow. I can’t put all the blame on server, they had him waiting on way too many tables, we had a party of 8. The food was great, but the poor service really left us dissapointd.

    Such a different experience from last time. Last time, we had excellent service and expertly prepared food. This time we had a server who seemed visibly annoyed and made irritated comments about our dairy allergy questions, the bread was stale, and the food was cooked inconsistently (one scallop carmelized, the others pale). Maybe an off night?

    Our server, Peyton had an attitude from the moment he greeted us, it was as if he didn’t want to be working that day, like he would have been happier being somewhere else with his family and friends! His sarcasm was not understood or appreciated. After we waited 15+ minutes after our appetizer course for our dinner he dropped off our “sides” then disappeared. After another 5-7 minutes I flagged a different server to alert him/ our server that we were still waiting on our dinner which was then promptly delivered. The sides were then cool to like warm. For the final act, we had to ask about dessert which asked to have sent home with us with our leftovers. You would have thought Peyton would have at least mentioned that the cake was a-la-mode, so we would get it home in a hurry and put in to the freezer. The busboy/other server and hostess saved the day with their charm and efforts to make up for Peyton. When the hostess just randomly mentioned that Peyton was part of your banquet crew it all made sense. If you want to charge folks $98/fixed price dinners then have a staff that is attentive who want to be there who don’t have a lousy attitude!! Mike Palaia

    We had to pay the $$$ for our dinner but they treated us disrespectful. Our 10 years anniversary, and our wedding was this hotel. When I booked it online ,I requested and noticed them that our 10 yrs anniversary. When we got there, they put us upstairs ( the upstairs dark, no decoration , dead place , all the chairs are old, ripped). Downstairs was beautiful with all decorations, flowers, lights for each table but for us upstairs 🤬. The service??? F…….k . The waiter who took care us ALSo took care Another couple came after us between 20 minutes to 30 minutes, and that couple got all the foods, drinks but we didn’t have anything beside water. Booked another dinner in 3 week with 10 people but we will nerve come back to this restaurant. Spend our money to another restaurant that will respect and treat us nice

    Grange seems to have gone down the food hill. Our dinner to celebrate a birthday with our son was marred by very, very slow service in a restaurant not that full. My wife said the only high point was our server Laura. My “Cab New York” steak was a rather thin bit of NY steak pre cut into sections. I asked for medium rare with a concern not to be too well done and it came out medium. It was chewy — a sign of poor meat quality. It came with a tiny bit of sauce and two overly fried potato wedges and a bit of mushroom. All for $64. I plowed through it. Oh the off menu Caesar salad the server round up was delicious. Stingy with one small anchovy despite my request. Wine pours were generous. Their Manhattan remains good so the bar staff has kept up. My son hit the miso cod and said it was good but not Nobu. My wife’s beet salad was drenched in dressing but decent. Desserts were weird. Her chiffon cake had little moisture or taste. My apple thing was bizarre and without the accompanying ice cream not that good. I suspect it will be a long time before we return to Grange. It used to be as good as Ella’s.

    Great dinner before we caught a play downtown. Excellent beet and burrata salad! They brought me GF bread which was so appreciated! Our waiter recommended a nice wine as they didn’t have what we ordered. Loved the short rib! Espresso martinis were perfection!

    The food was delicious. The dessert was dry and terrible for the cost. The service was the worst part our water never got refilled. They charge for valet and do not waive for if you go to the restaurant even though they don’t have parking. The waiter forgot one of our drinks and we had to ask twice for it. The food also took a very long time and no communication about it like whether the kitchen was backed up or any updates so we waited for 30 minutes for our dessert only for it to be terrible. Would have been back for the food but truly the service was so bad and for the price we paid I don’t think I would go back.

    Asked for a quiet table, seated smack out in the middle, next to the bar on one side and four bros in “team gear” on the other side, so that was an immediate fail (ironically, we have been seated in the same spot every time we’ve dined here). There were plenty of better options for us, I guess that worked better for them. Menu is … sparse. Meal took about 30 minutes to arrive, and only after the server pushed for a second round of cocktails in that clumsy, up selling way. We were glad not to be offered dessert or coffee and, happily, did get the check promptly on request. Overall … meh. Nothing special, not awful, albeit a bit overly smug.

    I brought a work colleague who was in from out of town. I’m a fan of The Grange and have eaten there 10-15 times. I was super disappointed with the fish tacos. The fish barely made an appearance. It was overwhelmingly batter and shredded lettuce mix. My colleague said his pastrami sandwich was just ok. Hope this is an exception and not a trend. But how dead it was for lunch makes me wonder.

    We weren't as satisfied with our dinner last night as we were in previous visits to Grange. My peach salad had peaches which were not yet ripe. My pork chop was very good. My wife had sea scallops which were very salty. We brought our own wine and the $20 corkage fee was very reasonable. We hadn't been here in a while and were looking forward to our return.......a bit disappointing. We'll try again but difficult for me to recommend based on last night's dinner.
