Bodega Kitchen & Cocktails

The goal of a neighborhood spot is to make you feel like it's been there forever and that it's a real getaway. This place nails it. You wouldn't know this spot is in a strip mall. Drinks, service, bites are all on point.

Food changed. We used to LOVE the burgers.

First time here and loved it! My friend and I shared the special hanger steak sandwich and the jerk chicken sandwich. They were both very good and the mojitos were good too. So many other things I want to try too.

Great service and kitchen! The best in town

Caribbean restaurant in the greater Sac area. Food was tasty and had much of the Puerto Rican flavor one is looking for. The pork shoulder with rice and pigeon pees was great. The cocktails were above average and nicely complemented the food. Service was superb. The decor is OK and there are plenty of tables. The bar area seems big and with a good selection of spirits. Overall, will recommend to visit this place.

This place is very very good. We got the pernil, oxtail, citrus fennel salad. Very balanced and delicious meals with fresh ingredients. Finished off with the basque cheesecake with guava jam, it was so perfect, I keep thinking about it.

I am from the Caribbean and I am Cuban and Puerto Rican. I ordered side of white rice, Cuban beans, platano gnocchi, and vegetables doubles. It was underwhelming to say the least. What happened to the flavor and what is the soul of our carribean food. Every single thing was unflavored. I moved from New York City and was sooo excited to try it, but I got disappointed. Lastly, the mojito was weak and they used mint puree instead of actual mint. Also, please pay attention to the details when it comes to cleaning the restaurant.

Bodega is tucked in the corner of the shopping complex in the South area. I wanted to try this place out to see if it could be an option for my bday celebration. Love the bar and the bartenders! They really made us feel welcome. Good selection of liquor and beer. When the lights go on after dark, the vibes are especially fun and festive! We had the happy hour fries and they were tasty. I will order food next time, and it looked like other patrons were thrilled with their dishes. I would have liked it if they had a patio area. All in all, fun atmosphere and staff. We will definitely go back!
