Best Fine Dining Restaurants in Fair Oaks

We used to eat here often before covid. We did take outs often after covid. We were shopping for a new car across the street in the auto mall and decided to stop here and have lunch. We both had lobster rolls. A new item just added to the menu last week. It was delicious, lots of lobster chucks with delicious small chopped veges in a tasty grilled toasted half spited thick bread. It comes with fries. Which was freshly fried with herbs. It's a very yummy and satisfying lunch.

What a nice hidden gem! The food pictures on-line lured us in. We read some reviews on Open Table, drove up from the Bay Area to see friends, and the four of us decided to try it. Very happy we did. The steaks, the salad, the meat loaf, the soup, the shrimp appetizers, and the libations were all very good too. If we had one complaint, it would be a small one: the music was little too loud. We all were wishing that it was more background music, so we wouldn't have to lean across the table to talk with each other. That said, we'll still be back. The service was great, and the food was Oh So Good! Great job Bennett's Kitchen!!

The service was amazing, very prompt and attentive. Our food was delicious we started with the gnudi, I had the pasta special my wife had the braised short ribs and our friends had the New York steak and the braised short ribs, for dessert we shared the caramel coffee cheese cake it was okay. All in all Zinfandel Grille is a great choice for food.

This is a great location for a quiet meal catching up with friends. Outdoor area is lovely when temps allow. Great service every time. We are never rushed.

Our family birthday celebration was beautifully handled by Il Fornaio. Devon, our waiter, was efficient, thoughtful, and friendly: a real professional! Our cocktails were perfectly prepared, wine service was handled well and service of appetizers and entrees was great. All of the food was tasty. An excellent restaurant.
