This cozy retro neighborhood bar is located near the Capitol, and it caters to the legislative crowd. Have a drink and watch Sacramento's political machinery in action. A good place for some greasy Chinese food and an after-dinner drink, this family-run business has been a local favorite for years. Open Monday-Friday from 11 am, Saturday from 4 pm. 1415 16th St., Sacramento. Phone 916-442-9437.
