Mediterranean food truck owner opens restaurant in Sacramento-area shopping plaza

A Mediterranean and Middle Eastern food truck serving authentic shawarma and gyros has opened its first restaurant in Sacramento’s Arden Fair. Jeeroz Shawarma and Grill, 1735 Arden Way, opened in Arden Fair’s Market Square retail center on Sunday, Nov. 8. The food truck, known as Jeeroz Mediterranean Cuisine, has served the Sacramento area for three years. The Mediterranean restaurant operates inside an 2,400-square-foot restaurant space. Market Square at Arden Fair is anchored by Barnes & Noble. The food is all halal, meaning its meat preparation is aligned with Muslim dietary beliefs. Jeeroz specializes in wraps and plates served with a side of fries. Its most popular dishes are its chicken shawarma, chicken gyro and falafel wrap, according to Yelp. The Jeeroz food truck has been spotted in front of the CALPERS building on 400 Q St. in downtown Sacramento and at local events. In the fall, it appeared at the Folsom Mosque, Elk Grove’s Diversity Festival, and the Rocklin Community Farmers Market, according to its food truck schedule. The new brick and mortar location is the site of the former Dos Coyotes Border Cafe, which reopened in Market Square in 2022 after a temporary closure during the COVID-19 pandemic. Jeeroz

Downtown Sacramento restaurant abruptly shuts, workers file suit alleging wage theft

Echo & Rig, the steakhouse and butcher shop in Downtown Commons inside Sacramento’s Kimpton Sawyer Hotel, appears to have abruptly closed, and an employee has filed a class action lawsuit on behalf of himself and others who the suit alleges have not been paid. The lawsuit was filed Nov. 2 in Sacramento Superior Court by Gavrilov & Brooks on behalf of Micah Bramwell and other employees at the restaurant, which is at 500 J St. Suite 150. The suit accuses the restaurant and its owner of failure to pay timely wages, failure to pay all wages upon separation, noncompliant wage statements, rest break violations, failure to reimburse necessary business expenses and unfair business practices. The plaintiff is seeking to recover the underpaid damages, penalties, interest, attorney’s fees and costs. TikTok user Erika posted a video on Thursday showing text from an email from the management and images of the empty restaurant. “Unfortunately today we received (an) email, that they decided to (close) their doors forever at the Sacramento location ... and none of the staff including myself got paid! Some of them were over 10+ checks probably more! Some servers are owed over 10k in tips,” the caption says. The

Popular Sacramento dim sum eatery launches brunch options for its Land Park location

Restaurateur Danni Kim wanted to try something different. Four years ago, Kim opened Hidden Dumpling House in Elk Grove, which, today, stands out for its gluten-free dishes. The business opened a number of locations across Sacramento and became a local favorite dim sum spot. But Kim was craving something new. She wanted to sink her teeth into a new adventure: to open an American-style brunch restaurant. “Nobody said a Chinese owner cannot do brunch,” Kim said. “It’s something I always wanted to do.” Kim has created The Morning After, a breakfast and brunch only menu at Hidden Dumpling House’s Land Park location at 3005 Freeport Blvd. The Morning After was originally a pop-up at the Land Park restaurant. It launched the brunch menu on Nov. 1 and Kim hired a whole new kitchen staff just for the venture. Each dish is focused on the highest and purest quality ingredients, Kim said. For example, the restaurant’s maple syrup is pure maple, rather than a corn syrup substitute. The Morning After’s menu is simple. There’s a traditional two-pancake breakfast, with butter and homemade berry compote, a side of fresh fruit and maple syrup. Other items include biscuits and gravy, chicken and waffles,
