TGI Friday's

7101 Laguna Blvd
Elk Grove, CA 95758

Nikki c. writes: The bar area is the best place to sit in this location.  The service is very hit or miss.  Some mixed drinks are VERY VERY good.  Others taste like ass and make you want a soda, or some water.  Lukewarm water.  Out of a sippy cup.

Casa Gomez Mexican Restaurant

8451 Elk Grove Blvd Ste 10
Elk Grove, CA 95758

Kiwi N' Anton H. writes: Surprisingly this place is "good".  
But the prices are compared to a "up-er scale" Mexican restaurant.  I like how the chips are unique.  They are thicker and a little softer than traditional restaurant chips (baked v.s. fried).  

This place is small…

Panera Bread

8519 Bond Road
Elk Grove, CA 95759

Anthony W. writes: This Panera bread is ok, but I feel somewhat shorted when I leave the place. Once you throw in a strawberry smoothie and a cup of soup, you've bumped the bill up by about $8. For 2 adults and 2 kids, I spend about $30. Makes me think I should have…
