Ro Sham Beaux — Restaurant in Sacramento

Simple food made extraordinary via detailed culinary arts and talent. I wish I got more photos. Never had a better grilled brie, I think they first pan fried the ham. The almonds inside offered elegance. We ordered a handful of items, the tuna sandwich not shown, was different than any other tuna I’d had before and I don’t know how they cut it (and so beautifully stacked) without the ingredients spilling out. We polished off everything with our friends, who were there to celebrate a birthday. Kitchen staff deserves a lot of praise. I was not expecting a wine bar’s food to outshine their beverages, as beautifully curated as they are. Nicely done! My only question is, can you find some tiny tables to add to seating on the bench so there can be food served there too?

So I found this place online, saw the pics and thought this would be a great place to try with a friend. I love wine and it looked like a good menu.

Then the mussels I ordered came in a tin can, like sardines you could get at a grocery or discount store for a couple of dollars, but we were charged at least 4 times that amount. The bread we ordered was soaked in oil, so there was no need for the butter that came with it. My friend enjoyed his soft cheese and bread appetizer and the sauce or jam that came with it, but when he asked for more to finish the snack with, he was given maybe a measured teaspoon. We left needing to find a...

Ro Sham Beaux is my absolute go-to every time I am in the Sacramento area for work. Everything here is top-notch, from their amazing space, their friendly wait staff, to their food and drink offerings. My favorites from their menu are the dolmas and olives, both of which make me feel like I am somehow sneaking away on a vacation while on work travel. I love natural and orange wines and the bartenders always have something new to suggest. They offer half pours, so I will usually go this route and try a few things. If you are taking a short break away from alcoholic beverages, they have an amazing non-alcoholic (sorry I still cannot say "mocktail" with a straight face) drink list. I recently had their "Ume Therman," and it was the perfect, crisp refreshing drink to combat the summer...
