SacTown Cafe & Catering

This location has been plagued with bad luck for the last few years– When it was the Oasis, I loved it… there was a short stint for JRs BBQ– the food was good but not great for everyday fair. I think that for the location, this place definitely now has staying power.
I stopped in last week to see what they had. It is hard to find good salads in our area, so I decided to go with a California Walnut salad (half orders available!). Very fresh greens… good dressing. I also ordered a half cup of chicken tortilla soup– I fell in love with the soup… was not very chunky (my daughter pointed out) but it was very flavorful and perfect for lunch when you have to get back to work and be worth something.
I noticed that they had Greek Spaghetti for the special of the week… it looked and smelled AMAZING– for $ 7, a HUGE plate… but there was no way I could even think about going there. I actually have to get back to my desk and not sleep :)
Today I managed to get the whole office to order. Wouldn’t you know they delivered it? I got again, the walnut salad and a cup of today’s soup: TOMATO BISQUE… my eyes rolled in the back of my head when I tasted it! The guys who ordered the fried chicken sandwich special said it was VERY good… those who ordered burgers found them lacking–
I signed up for the weekly special to be emailed to me… so now I get a good idea of what they can do… mostly American fair: burgers, sandwiches, etc… and weekly specials. The employees seem youthful and happy to be there– management is very nice, as well. I’m very, very excited to have them in the ‘hood!
