The IM in BurgerIM might stand for Is Meh...


BurgerIMs have been popping up all around the Sacramento area. I've previously been to the one in Natomas, but I didn't get a great sense of the food there since I was in a hurry that day. I went to the new BurgerIM location in downtown Davis to give it another go. I'm always excited when Davis gets some new eats... will BurgerIM be the next big thing? Sadly, methinks not.

Food -
The menu at BurgerIM looks really, really good. In fact, it reminds me a little of Burger Lounges menu. There are a ton of tasty options to select from, and they all sound great! The issue comes when you actually get the food to your table. See, while the flavors are somewhat there, the food is really just so-so in execution. I'm sad as I think there is a lot of potential for this restaurant, but the food - especially the burgers - need a big kick in the pants.

The burger patty and the bun (pretty much 90%) of the burger need improvement. I really want a juicy burger patty that has a delicious tenderness to it. These patties are not that. They are a bit dry and they are shaped as if they came from some sort of patty pressing factory. It just doesn't have a good look to it. And as for the bun... the bun ruined my eating experience. It wasn't rotten or out of code, but it was just too much bread. I felt that was all I was eating as I chowed down on my burger.

To make matters worse, they don't really have fries here. The fries are floppy potato disks. Some are nicer than others. You will find some with a nice texture while others have an oily feel. I'm not sure who thought of these disk-shaped fries, but it was not a great idea. Fries are good as they are already! Sometimes you don't need to be different for different's sake.

Service/Atmosphere - 
The snazzy menu is lit up well, but the overall ambiance of the restaurant is just average. It's not particularly inviting inside the dining room as everything is pretty much metal and grey. My one bright spot during my visit was the gal at the register. She was awesome in helping me select what to get and had a very pleasant attitude about her.

Price -
BurgerIM doesn't break the bank when it comes to the food. I'd say to expect to pay a moderate amount for what you get. This isn't a fast food joint where you just get cheap burgers and fries. It's a sit down restaurant with aspirations of being a trendy place to get a burger. For my burger, 1/2 fries/rings, and a drink, it was a little over twelve bucks.

Special Tips and Recommendations -
I'd skip the fries altogether and just go for the onion rings while dining here. The onion rings have a nice crunch and fry to them. They were the item I actually enjoyed the most during my visit to the restaurant.

Bottom Line - 
I'm not sure if BurgerIM is a place worth visiting. They have some nice bells and whistles, but when it comes to getting the food right, they do it kinda wrong. There are other burger places in town to get a great burger - go to those.

The menu is pretty snazzy.


The burger is a medium sized one.


You can get 1/2 fries and 1/2 rings if you like.


This is what the 'fries' are.

Delicious and Fresh Mexican Food at Sol in Woodland


Woodland is full of good Mexican restaurants, so it really takes something to stand out. Sol gives its patrons a beautiful place to eat with fresh and tasty dishes that you'll feel good about. Located all the way down Main Street on the edge of Woodland, Sol can be difficult to find, but it's worth seeking out as this restaurant will definitely hit the spot!

Food -
Sol's menu is expansive with a wide array of Mexican dishes to select from. You'll find pretty much any of your favorite Mexican items on the menu. I personally enjoyed the enchiladas and the flautas. The enchilada plate came with 2 enchiladas filled with my choice of pork, chicken, beef, or cheese. I personally selected one with chicken and one with cheese. The enchiladas were exactly what I wanted as they were extremely flavorful - I just wanted to keep taking bite after bite! The flautas were amazing as well. I loved how light and crispy they were. Both plates came with a side of rice and beans with cheese. I'm not sure if there's any better side than Mexican rice and beans... so good! The beans came in a little tortilla shell that was pretty fun to eat out of. Overall the food was excellent.

Service/Atmosphere - 
Sol has a beautiful dining room that has a traditional flair to it. It's comfortable and cozy and makes for a great dining experience. If the weather isn't too hot, Sol has patio seating so that diners can eat outside.

My only small gripe about Sol has been the service. The wait staff is good, but I find that the time it takes to get a table and have them come by can be a little longer than expected. It's not a terrible wait, but I think service could be a little speedier.

Price -
Dishes at Sol are moderately priced. You can expect to pay around ten to twelve dollars a person. Like many Mexican restaurants, Sol provides chips and salsa for the table when you come in. The food portions match up well with the cost so I feel that you get your money's worth when you come here.

Special Tips and Recommendations -
I really enjoyed the light and crispy flautas here. If you've never had them, I'd say this dish is one that you should get. It was actually recommended to me by a friend and she was spot on. The flautas are so great!

Bottom Line - 
Sol is an excellent Mexican restaurant in Woodland. Their menu is full of delicious dishes that will capture your attention. Though it is deep in Woodland, I think it may be worth a visit to satisfy your Mexican food cravings!

Sol has a really nice atmosphere. The menu matches well with the decor.


There are lots of options in the menu.


Sol is located in a plaza next to a Raley's grocery store.


Chips and salsa will be brought to your table when you come in.


The dishes are exactly as you would expect.

Hella Halo's Halo-Halo!


Hella Halo is a food stand that serves up Halo Halo, a popular Filipino cold desert that is full of delicious sweet treats. Since Hella Halo isn't your typical restaurant, you won't find them every day of the week, and you won't find them in the same place either. You'll have to check their Instagram for where they will show up next! So if you haven't already followed them, check out @hellahalo_sac on Instagram for all their latest news.

Food -
What you'll find when you arrive at Hella Halo is a small menu of different styles of halo halo. If you haven't had it before, it's a mixture of many ingredients such as ice-cream, crushed ice, evaporated milk, ube, sweet beans, coconut strips, sago, fruit, flan, and a few more that I can't think of off the top of my head. It has a uniquely Asian flavor that is quite exotic and good. I love it because there is so much variety available in this single dessert.

Being a cold dessert, halo halo is perfect for Sacramento. This amazing concoction will cool you down on those hot summer days out in the city. The OG is their standard halo halo, but you can also get other varieties such as a matcha version for those of you who enjoy something a little different.

Hella Halo serves up other delicious Filipino food items alongside their halo halo when they are out and about. You'll just have to show up to find out what they have in store for you!

Service/Atmosphere - 
I found the folks manning the Hella Halo booth to be very friendly and joyful - and very easy to talk to! They are great about answering questions and seem to have a passion for their food. You can tell that they love serving up this delicious food to their patrons.

Being a food stand, Hella Halo will most likely be situated near other food stands also selling their unique creations. You can't go wrong with an atmosphere like this!

Price -
The halo halo desserts go from eight dollars and up. It's not the cheapest dessert out there as compared to a milk shake it seems a bit high, but you are getting ingredients that are not common to the Sacramento area. The dessert itself is actually quite large and will definitely be able to top you off if you have the whole thing.

Special Tips and Recommendations -
I suggest going for the OG halo halo before trying any of the other specialty flavors as it's always good to get a baseline taste of what the original should taste like. If you come with a group, then try to get as many different ones as possible and share!

Bottom Line - 
Halo halo is such a great dessert and perfect for us here in Sacramento. Hella Halo does a really nice job of giving its customers top notch versions of it. Go ahead and check them out on Instagram so that you can find out where they will pop up next!

Hmmm, somebody really wants to get their hand on halo halo.


"Not your Lola's Halo-Halo" What's a Lola?


Here's their Instagram, go and look it up!


You're gonna need a big straw and a spoon to fully enjoy your halo halo.



Someone I know is looking forward to coming back for more.

Just Milkshakes and Coffee at Milk House in Old Sacramento


I've been wanting to try Milk House for a few months now and I'm glad I got the chance to go on this hot summer day. It was actually the perfect refreshing confection to beat the heat. Milk House is located in Old Sacramento very close to the river - you can't miss it. If you find yourself in Old Sac, I'd definitely suggest hitting this place up!

Food -
There are only two food items you can get at Milk House - shakes and coffee. Well, I guess you can ask for the ice-cream that they use to make the shake, but that's neither here nor there. If you're coming to Milk House you're either getting a shake or a cup of coffee... or both!

The shakes at Milk House are all named after former presidents of the United States. It's fun to see which president they pair with what shake. I won't ruin the surprise for you, you're going to have to go there to see what president has what shake. I will say, however, that the shakes are delicious. Sometimes when I have a shake I get this artificial taste. That is not the case here. The shakes have a smooth, milky quality to them. They are balanced well and may be one of the best shakes in town!

The coffee at Milk House is certainly for the coffee lover. I felt that the coffee had a rich, complex taste that is typically reserved for nice coffee houses - not milk shake shacks! The coffee selection is simple, but elegant.

Service/Atmosphere - 
When I came to the Milk Shake it was during a slow time during the week. There were just a few customers and only one person behind the counter. Thankfully, the person there was very friendly and helpful. She was also quick with making the orders so that the wait time wasn't a factor at all.

The Milk House is not a large restaurant and is modestly decorated. You'll see a few presidential themed decorations around its interior, but that's about it. The entire space is clean and modern - a definitely departure from most places around Old Sac.

Price -
Don't expect to spend just a few bucks here at Milk House. The small (VP) size of shakes are about six dollars with the large being eight. Coffee will run you three to four dollars for a cup. So yes, it's not cheap. Given its location and the speciality of the items, I can see why you are paying a premium. So just know that going in.

Special Tips and Recommendations -
If you like your coffee sweet like I do, you're going to have to tell them to make your coffee extra sweet. This isn't the stuff you get at Dutch Bros! I just love to have a fun, sweet, cold coffee on a hot day as a nice refreshing drink. That's not the kind you get here. I think it's for more serious minded coffee drinkers. So be warned!

Bottom Line - 
I love the simple concept of Milk House. Having shakes be their main drawing point is unique and fun. It definitely goes with the Old Sac vibe, but puts it in a new spin. Though Milk House lands on the pricier side of things, I do believe it is worth the visit.

Letter Grade

B+


The whip cream on the top of the shake is so smooth and velvety.


Doesn't this iced coffee look super refreshing?



There really isn't any seating inside, but outside there are plenty.



Could this be the best shake in town? You tell me!

Manchurian Hakka Cuisine in West Sacramento


Manchurian Hakka Cuisine takes the Panda Express approach and applies it to Chinese Indian food. The result is a quick and easy way lunch or dinner, but some of the 'must have-ness' is missing from the actual taste. I was really looking forward to this restaurant, but in the end I was left a bit wanting from my experience.

Food -
The food at Manchurian Hakka Cuisine is on-par with what you would find in a mall's food court. The entrees are laid out behind a glass for you to see. You can select one to three entrees in a plate along with fried rice or Hakka noodles (or both). It's good that you can see the food in front of you, because that way you can avoid the food that looks like it has been sitting out there too long.

Since the food isn't made to order, there is the problem of some entrees losing their freshness sitting out under a heat lamp. Like at a place like Panda Express, choose dishes that look the freshest for the best experience.

Manchurian Hakka Cuisine does offer a few select entrees that you really don't see anywhere else. The most unique entree must have been the fried broccoli with Manchurian sauce. I sampled it and found that it was a little like Tempura, but less crispy. The Manchurian sauce was savory, but not so much that I wanted to go back for more. The Hakka noodles are also a specialty here, I believe. These noodles are thicker than your typical chow mein noodles at Panda Express. They are less oily, but lack some of the flavor you'd want from them.

If you do want something more familiar, Manchurian Hakka Cuisine also has a sweet orange chicken entree as well as a beef dish and egg rolls.

Service/Atmosphere - 
The restaurant was nearly empty when I came in during regular lunch hours. It was very well kept and clean, which I appreciated. The entire feel of the restaurant was that of a chain restaurant - but not in a bad way. The decor was nice and I appreciated the quality of the dining room's presentation.

The one worker that was manning the counter area was helpful as I came in. He happily answered the questions I had about the food and offered to let me sample whatever it was that I wanted to help me make a decision.

Price -
For a two item combo plate with rice and Hakka noodles and a drink, the total came to be a little over ten bucks. The pricing at Manchurian Hakka Cuisine is very much on par with what you would find at other fast food Asian places of the same ilk. Folks on a budget can get a nice meal for not a lot of money.

Special Tips and Recommendations -
If you are a fan of truly spicy food, I suggest the chili chicken entree. I enjoy spicy food and I was surprised at the level of heat coming out of this entree. It was much hotter than any other item I would find at other similar restaurants. The heat level definitely surprised me and I even overheard other customers talking about how hot it was! If you're a heat fan, give it a try. If you don't like things too spicy, I would definitely avoid it!

Bottom Line - 
Manchurian Hakka Cuisine is a pretty average restaurant. If you want something with more character, this isn't the place to go. This restaurant is really for folks on the go who want something quick and easy, but a little different than your typical food. I'm not sure if I'd return here as it doesn't warrant a special trip out.

Shoku Ramen Bar has Your Noodles and Your Sandwich Covered


Shoku Ramen Bar is a hidden away little spot to get ramen and other delicious items for a price that won't leave a huge hole in your wallet. Nicely portioned dishes and a wide variety make Shoku a place that you should seriously consider checking out if you're in the neighborhood.

Food -
The man attraction at Shoku is the ramen. And of that they have many varieties. I tried the spicy black garlic chashu ramen tonight and it was excellent. The broth was spicy (but not overly so) and had a delicious richness that I felt elevated it. It was also packed with extras like seaweed, corn, egg, and more! Also on the menu is ramen with other proteins such as chicken, beef, or tofu. There's even a plain ramen if you don't want any of that for a pretty cheap price! If you're more of an udon fan... guess what... they have udon on the menu as well!

To go along with your ramen, you probably want some appetizers, and Shoku has them ready for you. Many of the mainstays are available such as edamame, wakame, and gyoza. The gyoza can be prepared either pan fried or deep fried. It was nice to have a choice and I asked for pan fried. In hindsight, I think the deep fried version would have been a bit more enjoyable. I'm a big fan of chicken karaage and gave that a try tonight. It had a different style of fry to it than usual. Not bad, but it's not the type I prefer. My friend saw that they had octopus on the menu and gave that a shot. She thought it was a little too sweet for her taste.

One menu item that I thought was very unique were the sandwiches they offered. You can select pork or chicken. The meat is served tonkatsu style with vegetables. It had a good size to it and I felt it could make a pretty decent meal.

Service/Atmosphere - 
We came on a slow day of the week, so the servers had some time to really wait on us and make sure everything was good. The servers were excellent and talkative. It was great to ask them a little about the restaurant and their favorites on the menu. They were really awesome.

The restaurant itself has a cut look to it. It's not overly fancy, but the decor does the job well and the booths have a comfy feel to them.

Price -
Price is probably the best aspect of Shoku. The items are very reasonable. The ramen I ordered was $8.95 and that is the highest priced one. I mentioned already that it was full of good ingredients and can fill you up. I thought it was a great deal! The sandwich is also priced well at just $5. I'm not sure if they'll adjust pricing up soon, but if they don't, I'd say that Shoku has some of the best deals in town.

Special Tips and Recommendations -
I recommend the spicy black garlic chashu ramen that I ordered. In fact, both me and my friend ordered it as it looked the best. Our server came over and actually said it was her favorite as well. So with that amount of recommendation, I'd say it's the one to get! If you're afraid it might be too spicy... well... it isn't. It's an enjoyable amount of spice that only the extremely sensitive should be wary of.

Bottom Line - 
A great price with friendly service and good portions makes for an excellent place to eat. If I lived closer to Shoku I could see myself stopping by quite often for a nice lunch!

One Speed is the Place to go for Pizza in Sacramento


One Speed is tucked away in beautiful East Sacramento. It's cozy location is the perfect place to showcase their delicious pizzas and other menu items. If you're looking for the top quality pizza, One Speed is the place to go. With great service and an inviting dining room, you'll enjoy your time dining at this superb restaurant.

Food -
One Speed is known for their pizzas, but they also have pasta, burgers, salads, and a number of appetizers to select from. The menu is pretty extensive, so even if you're not into pizza, there should be something that catches your eye.

I've been to One Speed a number of times and never have they disappointed in their food. And even their non-pizza items are quite a surprise as they turn out to be tasty decisions when ordered.

But in terms of pizza, One Speed has got it down. Their pizzas come in just one size - it's about the size of a medium I'd say - and can feed 1-2 well. You might be able to share between 3 if it's just a snack or if those eating are light eaters.

I would rank these pizza pies as premium quality pizzas of the highest order. You can tell that the ingredients a more than a step above the usual pizza toppings. The ingredients burst with flavor and all add unique notes to the experience. The meat pizzas are deliciously savory and flavorful. The veggie pizza are fresh and pop with a nice zing. The folks here at One Speed are definitely experts when it comes to crafting an amazing pizza.

If you're wondering what kind of pizza One Speed has, well, it has a thin and cheesy front end with a thicker crust that finishes off the slice satisfyingly. It's almost a combination of a thin crust pizza and one with a more robust crust. Quite unique and quite perfect.

One Speed has some of the best pizza in town, no doubt!

Service/Atmosphere - 
The atmosphere at One Speed is rustic and cozy. The interior of the restaurant has wooden hues that invite you in. Because the food is so renown in the area, you'll typically find One Speed abuzz with people. There's good energy here at this lively restaurant.

Service has always been top notch here. The wait staff is extremely friendly and accommodating. There are two instances I would like to mention in particular. The first was a few months ago for my birthday. My wife had organized a surprise party for me at One Speed. When I came in, the servers really played as if there was no party going on. I'm usually pretty good at figuring out the surprise, but the people at One Speed made me think that I was in for just a small family dinner. They totally were in on the surprise and made my night very memorable.

The second thing was at my last visit to the restaurant. We were seated at a nice table, but our kid was very cranky. Though the restaurant was pretty busy, the server relocated us (on our request) to a booth that was away from the busier parts of the restaurant. That was amazingly nice of them, and it's service like that that I don't forget!

Price -
One Speed isn't cheap, but I don't think it breaks the bank. The pizzas are around $17-18 each, and they can be shared. The other meals are in the teens when it comes to the price. I'd put One Speed in the upper-end of the mid tier when it comes to pricing.

Special Tips and Recommendations -
I want to mention the other food items here at One Speed. The burger here is divine. My wife commented that it may be the juiciest burger she's ever had. You've really got to try the hamburger here. It is jam packed with flavor and the fries are awesomely salty and crispy. It is heaven.

And on a whim, I had my mom try the pasta. Wow, oh, wow was that good pasta. The sauce was all sorts of complex. And while you're at it, get the corn soup if it's available. Flavor in a bowl is what that is.

I guess my recommendation is to give everything a try here!

Bottom Line - 
One Speed is such a great place to eat in Sacramento. It's one place that I'd recommend to anybody as it is just that good. Great service and great food make for a great experience.

Davis' Beloved Pizza Place - Woodstock's!


Woodstock's Pizza in Davis has been providing students and residents hot and fresh pizzas for years! Locals love to come here for a quality pizza pie as well as for evening entertainment. It's one of my personal favorite pizza places, and I'm always in the mood for Woodstock's. Go for a slice or get an entire pie, both are available!

Food -
Woodstock's Pizza is of course a pizza joint. They specialize in pizza that is of a very high quality. The ingredients used and the combinations they come up with are very flavorful and make you want to keep going for slice after slice. Woodstock's is certainly a level higher than the cheap pizza chains that are all around.

One thing that especially stands out at Woodstock's is their crust. It's a bready crust that has a nice chew to it. Hidden inside is some extra sauce that really adds to the taste. It's a little surprise that makes these pizza's next level. As stated, the crust is more of a soft bready crust, but it isn't too filling. It's easy to eat and will satisfy you more than a thin crust pizza would.

If you're looking for something other than pizza, Woodstock's also carries a lineup of sandwiches and salads. Breadsticks and wings are available as traditional pizza place apps.

The breadsticks (called Wildebread) stands out to me as they are seasoned with a nice blend of garlic and herbs. They aren't like breadsticks you'd get anywhere else, and I totally recommend the kind that comes with cheese. So good!

Apparently, you can get a loaded portion of tater tots now as well. I haven't given these bad boys a try, but they sound absolutely flavorsome. It'll have to be on order for next time!

Service/Atmosphere - 
Woodstock's is basically two sections. There's the pizza place part and the bar part. They are separated by an entry way. Every time I go to Woodstock's the place is alive and full of energy. At lunch hour there's a nice crowd and the buzz of good conversations. Often I'll see kids there in the summer enjoying their pizza.

In the evenings, different activities happen. Sometimes there's live music for people to listen to. Many people love to just hang out at Woodstock's after work. It can get pretty crowded pretty quick!

The servers and workers at Woodstock's have always been kind and courteous. In my years of coming to the restaurant I've never had bad service. That's saying a lot as I've been in Davis for over 20 years. Good job Woodstock's!

Price -
A large specialty pizza runs nearly thirty dollars without a coupon. I suggest looking for coupons as Woodstock's routinely has them in local advertisements. The pizza's are large enough to share easily, so if you are going to split the cost, that is a good idea - particularly for you poor college folk.

Woodstock's isn't cheap by any means, but the quality is here and I'd say the prices fit with the food they serve.

Special Tips and Recommendations -
My favorite thing to do at Woodstock's is to get a slice or two of pizza for a meal. Slices are only available at certain parts of the day (Before 3pm and after 9pm). If you're by yourself and are looking for a quick and delicious meal, slices are the way to go. There are usually a few different types of pizza to select from.

Bottom Line - 
Woodstock's serves up really good pizza. It's one of the best spots you can go to for a delicious pizza pie. I highly recommend Woodstock's Pizza if you want pizza that isn't your run of the mill take-out place. I think it's worth every penny!

House of Shah Brings a Unique Flavor to Woodland


Woodland's food experience is expanding exponentially it seems. Coming to the scene are unique restaurants that offer fantastic flavors from a myriad of cultures. House of Shah, located on Main Street, gives Woodlanders a taste of Afghan cuisine. The recipes are home favorites that have been lovingly refined and perfected for all who walk in the door.

Food -
House of Shah gives you the Afghan flavor, but combines it with food that you may already be familiar with, hence, Afghan Urban. It's a great concept as it can be difficult to jump straight into a culture's food that you aren't familiar with.

House of Shah makes it easy to experience the best of Afghan food with items such as the Shah burger and Shah fries. Everyone knows burgers and fries, but the burger and fries here have been infused with Afghan spices and flavor combinations. The burger patty is seasoned jalepeno, cilantro, and chili powder among other ingredients. It's a tasty combination that you won't find anywhere else. And the fries are topped with jalapenos, cilantro, garlic yogurt, and green chutney for a decidedly mild taste with pops of surprising heat and flavor.

If you're into kabobs, House of Shah has you covered. There are various types of beef and chicken kabobs that you can select from. They will come with your choice of white or seasoned rice as well as a small salad and naan.

There are many food items on the menu that are really interesting! Thankfully, the menu does a really great job of describing exactly what is in the dish so that you have an idea of what it is all about.

Service/Atmosphere - 
I have found the service to be top notch at House of Shah. It's a small restaurant, so everyone there appreciates that you have stopped in for a meal. To add to this, the atmosphere is very modern and inviting. The tones in the restaurant are trendy and make you feel like you're eating in a place that is new and fun. I was definitely impressed with the interior and decor all around House of Shah.

Price -
Prices at House of Shah are moderate. Expect to pay between ten and twelve dollars for a meal here. The portions are balanced, not overflowing. You'll leave feeling like you've had a good meal without going overboard. The fries here are great for sharing as are the other appetizers on the menu. Ordering these just for one could be a bit pricy, but it works well in a group setting.

Special Tips and Recommendations -
My personal favorite item at House of Shah is the Afghan Macaroni. The soft macaroni shells are topped with slow cooked ground beef and tomatoes then drizzled with garlic yogurt, dry mint, and ground red pepper. I love that dish and keep coming back to it time after time. I can't think of many places that have macaroni on the menu besides mac n' cheese. This dish is such a great dish if you want something a bit creamy but with a good amount of meat and a little bit of heat!

Bottom Line - 
I suggest visiting House of Shah to get a unique taste from a culture's food you may not have experience before. The staff is very friendly and the restaurant is very well designed. There's a lot to like at House of Shah, so go and give it a try!
