Paesanos Elk Grove

 

September is a busy month for Billy, so by getting to review Paesanos Elk Grove he was able to combine a handful of events into one. Billy was rescued from the SPCA in September of 2007 and mommy and Grandma’s birthdays are in September so we picked a Friday night to have dinner with Grandma and Grandpa and celebrate the events.

 

Paesanos Elk Grove is located in the Elk Grove Marketplace at 8519 Bond Rd and it is 1 of 3 Paesanos locations. The original location is in Midtown Sacramento’s “Handle” District at 1806 Capital Ave Sacramento. The 3rd location is Paesanos Pronto located at 1501 16th St on the corner of 16th and O streets. The Elk Grove location has a wonderful patio with a nice fireplace and waterfall in the center along with outdoor heaters. The patio is gated with sturdy gates for hitching the pup to during your meal. To enter the patio area you do need to go in and let the hostess know that you would like to have a table on the patio so it is best to have someone to help with your pup. The parking area is shared with the Marketplace, which has ample parking even when the shopping center is busy.

 

Since it was a Friday night we did have to wait a few minutes but not long at all. We were sitting outside in the waiting area when the manager came out to see Billy. Since Billy is a people dog he just had to lick her toes. We weren’t too sure how she was going to react at first but she started to laugh and say thank you to Billy since she was in need of a pedicure. At that point I knew we had landed on a great place for dogs.  Once we were seated the service was great and very on top of things. Everyone made sure that Billy was not left out as they all came over to say hello, even though he was not offered any treats or water.

 

The menu at Paesanos has a great variety of items, from pizzas, pastas, salads, appetizers, and steaks and even includes breakfast on the weekends at the Elk Grove location. We started our dinner with the Baked Garlic Sourdough appetizer. The garlic bread is a round loaf like you get in San Francisco and is cut open and filled with butter and garlic and then baked in the oven to make it nice and crunchy and oh so good and served with a dipping oil. The amount of bread is just right amount for 4 people to enjoy yet not over do it on the appetizer.  For our dinner we were not all in the mood for pizza so the variety on the menu was great. The guys ordered a Grande Paesanos combo, which was topped with pepperoni, Italian sausage, mushrooms, red onions, olives and mozzarella cheese. The Grande pizza was 8 large slices of wonderful goodness. Since we had the appetizer I knew I would not want a full meal with a salad so Grandma and I decided we would share a pasta dish. We both ordered a Caesar side salad and we shared the Carbonara with penne, apple wood smoked bacon, cracked black pepper, garlic cream sauce and parmesan to which we added chicken. Since we said we wanted to share the pasta at the time of ordering we were able to have the kitchen split it for us for $1.00 and they include an extra piece of garlic bread with the split charge. The amount of pasta was just the right amount for us with the salad and bread. I wish we had more room for one of the yummy looking desserts that they offer.

 

Dinner for 4 with splitting a meal was $70.00 including the tip, sodas and pizza for breakfast in the morning. Paesanos Elk Grove offers a great value for even better food and service. So the next time you are in the Elk Grove area and you are looking for a nice place for lunch or dinner try Paesanos Elk Grove! Until next time this is Julia, for Patio Paws – Rover and Out!

Great review.  Is the midtown location dog friendly as well?

Thank You!! This is So Much Fun!!!  I am not sure about the midtown location but I am sure that it is dog friendly as well. As long as they have a patio you should be more than fine to bring your pup. I know you will enjoy your meal if you go to any of the Paesanos locations!!

My pack gives 4 thumbs--er, paws--up to this review and says we have to try it!  Paesanos is conveniently located between home and their vets, so it looks like we'll all get a treat after their next appointment.  It's great to have an option other than fast food when I take them out.  Thanks for the review!

I hope to try out the downtown location as well...

Right down the street I have seen dogs at my favorite restaurant, Crepeville and they are dog friendly.

Do any of these restaurants have a doggie menu?  Or doggie bags? :-)

Billy and I have not found a doggie menu yet but we are still looking. Keep reading our blogs and we will keep you up to date on the best places to dine with your pup!
