Rio City Cafe: River Views and Fine Cuisine
Upscale and impressive, Sacramento's Rio City Cafe offers breathtaking views of the Sacramento River, fine wines and gourmet cuisine that is sure to make your mouth water. Situated in Old Sacramento, the restaurant overlooks some of the most notable sites in the Sacramento area. The outdoor patio is immensely popular in the summertime.
The crisp interior is naturally-lit by a bounty of crystal-clear windows. The view is almost as delicious as Rio City's food. Enjoy the warm sun as it is occasionally shadowed by a passing cloud as you enjoy your fabulous Rio City lunch or supper. The Rio City Cafe is the quintessential dinner destination for an anticipated date or family get-together.
Start off with a bowl of creamy polenta bisque soup or a sourdough cheese loaf with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. The Asian Pear Salad, which features prosciutto, fresh mozzarella cheese, hazelnuts and a pear cider vinaigrette is also a delectable choice.
Main dishes include items like spinach-ricotta stuffed ravioli with pesto chamagne sauce, grilled salmon in citrus brown butter and Yukon confit, smoked pork loin with honey-poached cranberries and Angus prime rib with horseradish mashed potatoes.
Save room for Rio City's delicious desserts. Items like creme brulee, flourless chocolate cake and fresh berries and creme are available seasonally. Ask your server for the dessert selection.
Business casual attire is required and reservations are extremely helpful. To make reservations at Rio City Cafe, call (916) 442-8226 or visit the Rio City website.
