    We visited Ella for the first time to celebrate my birthday, and it exceeded every expectation. Every single thing we ordered was fantastic. From the appetizers and drinks to the main course and dessert. The flavor and quality exceeded our expectations. Troy was our server and provided outstanding customer service throughout the entire evening. He was knowledgeable, attentive, and helped make the experience feel special. What really stood out was that Chef Dustin personally came out to our table to accept our compliments, answer our questions, and even share where we could purchase some of the ingredients we loved, including the cheese from one of the appetizers. That level of hospitality is rare and greatly appreciated. The food, drinks, service, and overall experience were exceptional. We couldn’t have picked a better place to celebrate. Highly recommend and we’ll definitely be back!

    Ricardo was a great server. He helped us modify our menu selections with alternative sauces to match our individual spice needs. This was our second trip to Sacramento and Zócalo. We will come back to Zócalo on our next trip.
