Great sports bar. Food was great — they even had a few healthy vegan options. The wait staff was very friendly and plenty of TVs to watch the games.

I enjoyed my food and experience at this location. It's a very small dining area, food was served fast and the server was attentive. I will definitely come back and try again perhaps an adult beverage and something else off the menu. The Cobb salad is excellent.

James was an absolutely wonderful server, very personable. Unfortunately the back of the house interpretation of menu items was subpar.

A solid choice for, what, 65 years? They had a rough time during Covid, but they didn't fold (hah, get it? They have a card room? Fold? I'm hilarious). They changed quite a few things as they came back, but they came back, and I still enjoy every time I come here.

Their garlic fries/fries in general are amazing. Def will be back for those + entree

Went back twice since the above 1-2 years ago. Fries were oversalted and tough, basically normal.

I dont know why they were amazing that one time

Use to like this place, but it has gone down hill a bit. Food is good, but I was in tonite and it was super loud. I waited for a 1/2hr at a table in the 2nd room and was ignored. Waitress was tending to a large group nearby and totally ignored me. Will never go back.

Love this place, we had our work meeting here today and the server was so nice and attentive. She remembered all our drinks and was quick to replace them. Food was great!

This place has went downhill and fast. I had a homeless man sit next to me and I think he may have died of fentanol overdose. He was asked to leave then dropped unconscious as soon as he stepped foot outside. Fire Department didn't look successful at their efforts at resuscitation. Hope he made it

Limelight Bar, Cafe & Cardroom offers a vibrant blend of entertainment. The cozy ambiance, tasty bites, and card games create a unique experience. Friendly staff, live music, and a variety of drinks make it a local gem. A must-visit spot in Sacramento!

Great ambience with a patio and music in the open parking lot. Food was good, we ordered calamari fry, garlic tots, pizzas, sliders and burgers.

Although my personal experience of losses due to bad calls I can not will not mislead others about this café. They are all good spirited, make fair calls on any issues brought to attention, and get to know their patrons on a first name basis. All this leads up to a good experience every time regardless of ones win or loss in bets.

The worst card room in sacramento, coppied the side bet at capital casino and all and all just a let down. Its like a smack on the face honestlh

Terrible service and nasty food. The superior pancakes I ordered were disgusting, so I tried my friends breakfast burrito and the potatoes were burnt and the rest had no flavor. Sat for a half hour and had to get loud to get someone to actually help up. Don’t waste your time

Always comfortable my recent visit to Limelight was relaxed and cozy. I always try to get the 2 orange velvet chairs in the dining room.

My calamari frittata was delicious. Just the right supper for my 1st Sunday of Lent! My waitress, Nancy, was cordial and helpful. I really enjoyed the young couple playing darts games!
Enjoy yourself when you drop in for breakfast, lunch or dinner!

Stunning! Halle, our bartender, such fun! Great advice on menu options & prompt service on beverages. Can't wait to return for the triple cheese grilled sammie!

This is the one and only eagles bar in Sacramento which is why I’m leaving 4 stars. Fair beer prices and a good atmosphere but let’s be honest, the food is terrible. It’s actually comical how bad the food is.

Watched some college football here and had a blast. The tacos were a hit and so was our server James.
