I will be returning to Ella. This initial experience was a lunch time that. I enjoyed the burger and learned about the process of creating the meal, the baking of the bread, and the quality of meat used, just how this meal differs from Ella's sister resturants. The NA tonic was refreshing, I look forward to giving their signature G&T a try. The ambiance is refreshing in Sacramento, where we have so few high-end establishments. I'd recommend visiting solo at the bar, at a table with a friend's or a private space to enjoy your party. Pricing was fine, overall comparable to area resturants.

The food was nicely prepared and the plates were abundant...the margaritas were delicious as always and our server was charming, helpful (daughter is a vegetarian) and attentive, but gave us time to talk as we needed... Atmosphere was warm, football game cheers and holiday music filled the air...and families celebrating!
