Brick House Restaurant & Catering 9027 Elk Grove Boulevard, Elk Grove, CA 95624

"A restaurant where the manager actually spends time at each table making sure all aspects of the experience are good? Not usually found in a place of this caliber.. Very pricey for a place somewhere between casual and fine dining. Atmosphere was more on the casual side while food quality and portion size was definitely an upper tier experience..! Too pricey for a family or "anytime" restaurant, but perfect for a business luncheon, a date night out or a casual party!"

"I rate restaurants on a simplistic scale.. would I go back? Yes-ish.. Food was decent, my only qualm was with the ribs and meatballs. Let’s start with the ribs.. I doubt they were are smoked. I didn’t get any hint of smoke flavor and I did not see a smoke ring. The honey mustard sauce was good, but I was just let down by the lack of smoke. Now on to the Braised Meatballs. The red sauce was solid! But what I couldn’t get over was the meatball flavor very closely resembled chef boy r d meatballs.. no disrespect. My wife shared the same sentiment. All in all it’s worth the trip."

"Good service, atmosphere and table setting were a bit weird for a party of 5. We got the Coconut Prawn appetizer and for our entrees: Rack of Lamb, Chicken Marsala, Cheese Ravioli, and another chicken dish. The coconut prawns appetizer, pesto fettuccine side dish, and kids cheese ravioli were great, but the entrees didn't quite get there. I'm all for tender lamb, but when it's so soft it taste like liver..ehh, not so much. Chicken marsala tasted more like an extra sour chicken piccata and the other chicken dish was something completely different, but looked exactly the same. The food looks and smells great, but doesn't deliver in taste. The saving grace was whoever made my lemon drop, which was perfect."

"The two of us had a great dining experience here. We shared the Salmon and Short Ribs. We both opted for the 3-course meal by adding both minestrone soup (not pictured) & salad. Everything down to the soft texture of the bread & fragrant garlic butter was delicious. Service was good as well. Parking does not seem to be an issue since there's a lot with plenty of signs which are reserved for guests dining here. It's locally owned with a full bar. Located in old town Elk Grove. There's also a happy hour offering. It's basically gourmet with a hometown feeling to it. You can taste the love, passion & comfort in the dishes served. Everything was seasoned well & tasted fresh. No salt & pepper needed."
