Top Takeout
"In a few short years, Brad Cecchi has made his mark on Sacramento’s dining scene with his young East Sac restaurant Canon, which received a Michelin Bib Gourmand award in 2019—not quite a Michelin star, but not bad for a Sacramento newcomer. When you pack up elevated fare to go, it often loses something in the car ride between restaurant and home, but the talentedCecchi has mastered the art of making inventive fare that travels well. His Sunday-night prix-fixe dinners are particularly successful."

The Best Restaurants in California's Capital City
"After earning a Michelin star two years in a row at Solbar in Calistoga, Sacramento native Brad Cecchi returned home in 2017 to open Canon, which describes itself as a "chef-driven neighborhood restaurant with creative and shareable fare.". Check their menu for their current dishes, most of which are small plates made for sharing. Among the chef's most popular creations are Urfa chile chicken drumsticks with orange zest and smoked beer-can chicken."

The Hottest Restaurants in Sacramento Right Now, Winter 2020
"In the space that was once home to Lucky Cafe, the Morning Fork is another well-attended breakfast diner in the heart of Lavender Heights that serves large plates of Americana. Jennifer Swiryn, a long time Lucky Cafe waitress who now owns the restaurant with her husband Keith, has preserved the lunch counter and its original brown vinyl swivel stools. Sit there (or at a nearby booth) to tuck into fried chicken and bacon-laced Belgian waffles, crab and shrimp cake Benedict, and pancakes that spill over the edge of the plate."
