The best eatery in Sac. without a doubt is "The Kitchen". Six course specialty menu, with sushi served at halftime. Been there twice, the cost per head averaged well over over $2 bills (thanks to the wine)
Thanks for the advice. Wish I could have tried Bandera.
We got in pretty late on Tuesday and ended up at Buca's, pretty much because it was still open and the Eye-talian coworker said that they actually have pretty good food. Had the chicken saltimboca and I'll have to say that it was tasty and very generous. The small CAESAR salad was nothing to write home about. The coworker had the Quattro al Forno and it looked pretty good too.
On Wednesday I picked up a sammich, salad, fruit and a pile of beers, and watched the Laker game in my hotel room.
Pretty exciting trip.
