Rio City Cafe

The first stop before we do anything is to EAT. This is one of the first restaurants that struck my curiosity ever since I first wander throughout Old Sacramento. It is ideally located on the edge of the Sacramento River with a scenic background view of the iconic Tower Bridge (I’ll show y’all keep reading).

After a few minutes of going back and forth trying to decide which restaurant to go to, we agreed upon Rio City Café. One of my friends told me that a must-have is their french toast. So what did I do? I ordered the breakfast combo which allowed you to choose their french toast.

Let me tell y’all about that weirdly shaped french toast that looks like a log! It was magically soft but yet it maintained a nice crisp at the edges of it. It was one of the best french toast I’ve eaten and I’ve eaten many french toasts throughout the country. Anyways continue reading below…

Now, to the right, you will see this beautifully sliced sourdough loaf with melted cheese perfectly in-between each square that sat in a rich balsamic vinegar 🤤. After viewing pictures of this item via google images—trying to get an idea of what these menu items look like—I decided that I have to try this.

When I shared what I was going to order, my brunch mates started saying, “you should get it Tre so we can try it too” then my face gradually turned into “🥴.” Nonetheless, my loving and caring spirit told me to go ahead and share. I shared a few squares and they too enjoyed it. I was mentally and physically satisfied with my meal. My waiter was very nice and especially helpful with questions we threw at him. Let’s not forget about the 🗣BOTTOMLESS MIMOSAS, which were composed of high-quality champagne that was paired with your trusty ole orange juice. Some restaurants offer bottomless mimosas but to cut costs, they fail to use champagne that tastes good.

Overall, it was a successful brunch and boy did those mimosas hit right! 😂😆
