Zócalo
If the first impression is a major target, then Zocalo hits it at the center of the bulls-eye with its illustrious external appearance. Its grandiose exterior is complemented by its vintage interior design and layout with walls donned with fascinating artwork and well lit tables, which personifies its majestic Mexican heritage. Although the menu may seem basic at first glance, each item has been thoroughly planned to pay homage to regional Mexican cuisine while also keeping an eye towards modernizing it. This restaurant also boasts of serving classic margaritas made from fresh lime juice and organic agave.
Situated on a quiet street in Midtown Sacramento, Tres Hermanas wins you over with its charming Mexicana vibes. Keeping in tone with its breezy, inviting atmosphere, this restaurant provides options for both indoor as well as patio-style outdoor seating. The menu offerings are both versatile and seemingly authentic, seeing as that this establishment was founded by a family of three sisters from Chihuahua, Mexico. Locals swear by the creamy cilantro dressing, the mole sauce and the carnitas. Wash down these delights with delicious margaritas that are so good, they are rumored to pack quite a punch.
