Northern California Locals Keep Returning To These 8 Chinese Restaurants For Classic Favorites

Double skin sounds like a skincare product, but it’s actually a plate of mung bean noodles. One kitchen on this list tosses them with pork, squid, mushrooms, and a sharp soy-mustard dressing. That dish alone sent me down a very hungry rabbit hole. I learned one restaurant here has...

Elk Grove Mexican restaurant featuring seafood specialties to open second location

An Elk Grove taqueria is launching a second location and has announced a tentative opening date in the new year. El Puerto de Vallarta is set to open at 8409 Elk Grove Florin Road in February, the owner said in an interview with The Sacramento Bee. The restaurant specializes in mariscos, Mexican seafood dishes, including fish tacos, shrimp fajitas and Cóctel De Camarón y Pulpo, a shrimp and octopus cocktail. Owner Oscar Duran will oversee the Elk Grove Florin Road location. Having worked at the restaurant for 10 years, Duran said he wanted to “take a chance” by opening and running the second taqueria with his partner. “We thought we would continue that and open up another place on the other side of Elk Grove, since our clientele wouldn’t breach that bar on a normal basis,” Duran said. The original restaurant, 5105 Laguna Blvd., is open from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. Sunday to Thursday and 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, according to its website. El Puerto de Vallarta is replacing Z Town Asian Gastro Bar & Restaurant , which closed after a shooting in 2025. The eatery will take over a 2,500-square-feet storefront, according to

Gourmet taco truck favored by former Sacramento Kings player to open Auburn cantina

A popular gourmet taco truck, a personal favorite of former Sacramento Kings point guard De’Aaron Fox, is launching its first storefront. Banzito’s Tacos will open a cantina in the heart of old town Auburn at 216 Washington St. Owner Adam Saldaña said the truck’s signature is its cheese curds on top of its gourmet tacos. Saldaña said his love for cooking can be traced back to his mother. She was an “extravagant host,” inviting family over and having a menu posted on the dining room wall. Food was a passion for her, and as Saldaña helped her in the kitchen, it became his passion too. “Anybody that knows me knows I’ve been cooking my whole life,” Saldaña said. “I always cook for friends, barbecues, potlucks...it just stuck with me.” It wasn’t until the COVID-19 pandemic that his culinary hobby became a possible career. He began experimenting with flavor combinations, everything from green enchilada tacos to grilled bacon-wrapped jalapenos filled with cream cheese. He later took his dishes to farmers markets, and eventually, outside the Golden 1 Center. Banzito’s Tacos caught the eye of Fox, who played for the Kings from 2017 to 2025. Saldaña would later serve his tacos at

Cockroaches and rodent droppings were found at this Land Park seafood restaurant

Sacramento County Health Inspectors gave a red placard to an Arden Arcade Mexican restaurant after finding 175 “fresh” rodent droppings. Additionally, 15 eateries were cited for health food violations ranging from dented cans, slime buildup inside an ice machine and black residue accumulation in the ice cream cooler. What do these inspections mean? While a yellow placard signals two or more major violations, these are typically corrected or mitigated during the inspection, according to the Sacramento County Retail Food Inspection Guide . A red placard, however, signals “imminent danger to public health and safety” and suspends an establishment’s health permit until violations are corrected. This could include, but is not limited to, major vermin contamination . In contrast, a green placard means a restaurant passed inspection. The county performs about 14,000 inspections annually and about 97% of establishments pass, spokesman Ken Casparis previously told The Sacramento Bee. Approximately 1% of inspections result in a closure, he said. These were the results of Sacramento County food facility inspections for Thursday, Oct. 22, through Wednesday, Oct. 28. If an inspection listed below needs clarification, business owners can email The Sacramento Bee at servicejournalists@sacbee.com . How to report a business to the health

Dine with the dearly departed at these Sacramento Día de los Muertos dinners

The first two days of November mark Día de los Muertos, a Mexican holiday of remembrance of friends, family and pets who have died. Rather than being somber, festivities can be joyous, even funny, as people recount stories of their loved ones. A few Sacramento-area restaurants are welcoming celebrants with special meals and events for the occasion. Cuvée Club, the pop-up bar concept within the Granite Bay location of Mimosa House at 6861 Douglas Blvd., is hosting A Night to Remember on November 1 from 6:30 to 9:30 p.m. For $75, you’ll get three cocktails or spiked aguas frescas plus unlimited plain aguas frescas and 13 passed bites. Under-21 guests get in for $20 and receive the same refreshments, minus the alcohol. Cocktails include the eponymous Mimosa de los Muertos, sparkling wine with mango, salty-sweet Chamoy on the inside of the glass and a Tajin rim, and La Catrina, a smoky concoction of mezcal with orange, lime and agave syrup, served with a chile-salt rim. Horchata and cucumber-lime aguas frescas, served in plastic bags in the street cart style, can be spiked with tequila. Guests will be greeted with tostilocos, another street food delicacy, Tostitos with jicama, cucumber, peanuts, sweet
