The Broiler has been Sacramento's definitive steakhouse since 1950, when Joe Anticevich created a very special Dinner House at 10th and J Streets. It continues to be a place where political careers begin and end, where the courthouse crowd comes to celebrate victories or nurse defeats. Always a place to see and be seen, The Broiler, with its high-back booths, remains a destination for deals and dates, anniversaries and reunions for more than five generations.

Lunch or Dinner seating is available for groups of 10 to 16 in The Captain's Room (private room) or groups of 12 to 55 in a section of the main dining room. In either case there is no room charge, but conditions do apply. The minimum charge for a luncheon in The Captain's Room is $150 and $300 for dinner. Groups of more than 16 should select 3 or 4 entrees from the regular menu and restrict the choices to those items. A credit card number is required to reserve the space and a 48 hour cancellation notice is required.

Dining

I love the Broiler. The first time I went, I was puzzled by what I thought to be slow service. Our waiter must have noticed and told me (with a lot of genuine charm) that his was the kind of restaurant where you go to dine, not eat and leave. I was very impressed by the food, the service, the atmosphere and the experience of eating here. The food was amazing and prepared exactly as ordered. The wait staff is very helpful and attentive (without being overly so).

GREAT service!!! GREAT Food!!! GREAT atmosphere!

I am a long-time resident of Sacramento and had wondered about this restaurant. I think it moved locations, and the building it is in now (with free parking below) is VERY nice! My friend made a reservation here to celebrate mine and another friend's birthday on a Saturday night - this was after he had experienced very rude behavior from another restaurant downtown. But, I tell ya, I am SO glad we ended up taking our business elsewhere and went to "The Broiler" instead!

Entering the restaurant, you automatically get the feeling you are in a very classy - yet casual place.  The staff immediately brought us to our perfectly set table (with fine linings and silverware).  We had a large party of 14 - so had a table set up in the main dining room.  There is a large wine selection and I highly recommend the glass of Syrah!  I had the filet mignon - which was cooked to perfection.  Our wait staff was headed by a wonderful woman named Terri. 

Everyone enjoyed their meals and the table was just perfectly arranged to where everyone was able to converse without having to yell.  Then came the beautiful dessert - a lucsious cream puff filled with vanilla ice cream and chocolate on top!  The staff delivered 2 of them (one for me and my friend) and sang to us, too.  We graciously shared our dessert with everyone and even had enough left over for ourselves to enjoy! ( ;) 

Yes, this was DEFINITELY the BEST experience I've ever had a restaurant - which made my birthday the BEST I've ever had too!  I will HIGHLY recommend the Broiler to all my friends and will definitely be back to enjoy many more meals there, too!

The steaks here are big, juicy, delicious and reasonably priced for a fancy pants steak house. I don't remember much about the wine list, but I do remember that New York-and our server. Some of my best dining experiences have been here. On a side note, I believe the kitchen is run by a woman-which is still a rarity these days.
delicious! Furl this! digg this! stumbleupon this!
