Me and my wife come to the area every year between Christmas and the New Year and every year it never fails to impress. The service is always amazing, both the server themselves as well as the assistants. The ambience is always relaxing and calm yet you get an incredible feeling that this is the place to be. Absolutely 5/5 and will continue to come to this Ruth’s Chris for many years to come!

We had a perfect experience at Allora for Christmas Eve dinner. It was our first time here (we recently moved to Sac from the Bay Area), and we definitely will return. Well thought out menu, creative and accessible presentations, and stellar ingredients. The front of the house team was friendly and very accommodating. I highly recommend Allora and we are so pleased that we found it.
