The Sheldon Inn has quickly become one of our favorite spots—we’ve been here four times in just a few weeks, and every visit has been fantastic! This time, we had the chance to dine on the second floor for the first time. It’s a bit louder up there, but the atmosphere is still charming and unique. Our waiter was very friendly, though not the most knowledgeable when it came to wine etiquette. That said, the service was still great, and the food was absolutely top-notch as always. The steak was cooked to perfection, the salmon was delicious, and the burger remains the best we’ve ever had. We finished the meal with a decadent dessert that was the perfect ending to a great night. If you’re looking for a consistently excellent dining experience, The Sheldon Inn is a must-try. We’ll definitely be back again soon!

Michelin Guide rated neighborhood restaurant with creative and shareable cuisine and a year-round patio.

"With a clear vision, a striking aesthetic and distinctive, mouthwatering flavors, Canon restaurant in East Sacramento is a stellar and welcome addition to the city’s dining scene." - 4-Stars, Sacramento Bee

"Find the convivial Canon sequestered away from the downtown bustle. This cool space that contrasts deep tones against bright whites is enveloped by the aromatic smell of smoke, so it’s no surprise that the house is packed most nights. Chef Brad Cecchi is the culinary mastermind and his menu is pivoted around playful small plates." - Michelin Guide

Canon is committed to a healthy and productive workplace. A 4% service fee is added to dine-in bills to help cover the cost of employee health and wellness benefits and to provide a kitchen equity stipend to our back-of-house staff.

This was our first visit to Zocalo in University Village and it was excellent from the moment we walked in the door till the moment we left! The service was spot on and the food was great! My wife had the fish tacos and loved them! I had the enchilada's and they tasted great! Our server was excellent as well! My only other comment was the number of birthday celebrations! Just kidding!
