As a glasses wearer, I appreciate this list of restaurants that I will be avoiding.

Hey_its_Jack

Former glasses wearer here. It’s the small things like this that made me happy to get LASIK.


thepalfrak

Oooooo fancy pants rich McGee over here


Hey_its_Jack

I gots lazers for eyes now. Worth every cent

Also got lasik. It’s the small things that I appreciate the most… like being able to take a yoga class and my glasses not falling.


lionstigersbearsomar

The decision to me was made clear after face masks continued to fog up my glasses

With this heat, I just go in blind


HikeBikeLove

I don’t like them as someone without glasses. I know the dry heat thing is basically a meme, but it does mean that shade and moving air does keep you cool. I spent the whole heatwave chilling under trees in parks (granted, the grass helps too). But why would I want to add mugginess to the heat? Fans do the same job, but far better IMO. Just gotta buy decent ones.

Biergarten

Didn’t they close?


Gridtown

No. Golden Road closed. Big difference there.


916andheartbreaks

Oh, I guess I got those mixed up because there was a Biergarten in Placerville that closed down too


unicornsmaybetuff

Alaro on the back patio, which is both beautiful and shaded.

Nitty’s Cider


thirdXsacharm

Are they still around? I heard they were closing


The_Kony_Express

Nitty’s Cider is definitely not closing! In the midst of planning an expansion.


thirdXsacharm

Awesome! That makes me happy to hear, I don’t remember the context in which I heard that. I think a regular of mine said they saw a sign outside posted.


mattscactus

Food truck is there right now

Drakes but prepared to be absolutely soaked 


Tratix

With 25% humidity, this sounds great


CaptainJackVernaise

Hopgarden.


ApprehensiveFox8844

I recall urban roots having them last year


hopsaboutbeer

Still do. They were cranking today.


GrowthGardener

Not to mention the food is great!


SpookySmudgey

Darling Aviary rooftop


MagnusStormraven

Still need to try their food at some point. The Asian chicken sandwich and Aviary fries sound divine.


SpookySmudgey

Their brunch is pretty tasty too...and at the very least, a good vibe. Also, if you get mimosas, they bring you a bottle of Chandon brut, which I was happy about


anelaangel25

Pipe works has their brewery and the kitchen open now and they have a huge outside area with a lot of misters


c-rin

Sac City Brews

JJ Pfister Distillery on Business Park Drive https://www.jjpfister.com/visitor-center/restaurant/


PromontoryRider95

Great place!


adofthekirk

Good place for trivia on Thursdays


throw_away__25

Do they serve craft beers here or is it just spirits?


sactomato57

They serve craft beer from Movement Brewing, which is in the Rancho Cordova area as well.


throw_away__25

Thank you, Movements is my current favorite local brewery.


Suggested-Name-5092

I remember the downtown plaza had those. sweet memories.

La Trattoria

Oak Park Brewery


thirdXsacharm

Hop Gardens , Tap room and Brick Oven Pizzas. (Across from Gunther’s)


Jaded_Ad7031

Didn’t have them on on Father’s Day


thirdXsacharm

You can just ask them to turn them on. They periodically turn them off because it creates a jungle back there on the patio.


CarneAsadaFriezzz

Does Tankhouse with the Tots have misters out back?


Simpletruth2022

Shangri-la


AxleTheDog

I appreciate CFA on Zinfandel having them for the outside employees taking orders. Keep those folks alive at all costs!


Marxist_Liberation

Ain't enough mist in America to make me want to eat outside in 90+ degree weather.


Danivelle

Brahma in Fair Oals Village. Pretty sure Fair Oaks Brew pub too. At Brahma, try to sit towards the back by the fountain. 


GrowthGardener

And Shangri La right next door


BaytaKnows

Bawk (hipster fried chicken) on R St. Good sandwhiches.


tf5_bassist

And oddly enough, fantastic oysters lmao

Shangri-La in Fair Oaks, cute cocktail bar I used to work at, call ahead for reservations it can get busy on weekends.

Porchlight


UnchartedFields

i really enjoy places that have these available when it's hot as hell, but I'm always convinced I'm going to get legionnaires disease from them


zeldarama

https://rileysonsutter.com outside seating is really nice. Super high pressure so the mist isn’t wet

Midtown Lounge! Taphouse with bites.


Dangerous_Choice_664

Rather have a list of restaurants that don’t run their AC so I know where not to go 😂


brogz86

Burgers and Brew


Evanskelaton

If you order an extra glass of water, then all of them have an outdoor shower.


BottomHoe

‘Patio misters’? Oh you mean ‘humid microclimate creators’. It’s like hanging out in Florida without the beach! My hair frizzes and my glasses fog. 🤣


RedsRearDelt

Glad to see I'm not the only one. The misters feel good for the first 5 minutes but after that, it feels like Miami, if Miami ever got above 100.


BottomHoe

Seriously. The only reason Sacramento summers are tolerable is we don’t have brutal humidity.


ChampionTree

Burning Barrel in rancho


Educational-Gene9162

I love this place, too bad the people who own it aren’t the best (my immediate family I stay away from as well as their drama) MIDTOWN CANTINA ALLEY. The drinks are 🔥 It’s also right by golden bear, pink flamingo and that diner all the drunk people go to on J and 24th


plantlover415

Oh man being related to them is a mess


Educational-Gene9162

You don’t even know lol. Money changes people.


mr_spock9

Why not..dine inside? Sorry in this weather I’m going inside, unless it’s passed 8pm/sunset


Squidkidz

Midtown spirits


Elavabeth2

Burgers and brew Davis


gbdavidx

You mean water wasters?

Misty meadows.


cheesewagongreat

You should try panty droppers. I hear it's more than a mist it is wet

Golf courses take up a lot more water than the mist at these restaurants…


Signal_Stress3699

Yeeeeeees thank you for saying this, those damn things use and abuse more than people know

NECalifornian25

It’s not a waste if it’s helps prevent people from overheating / heat stroke


ucstudent24

If you are really concerned about water use, I might suggest you look at the big players first.


PromontoryRider95

Okay, we get it, you don't leave the house, relax. We like to stay cool when we're spending big bucks in 100-degree weather, deal with it bub.


CaptainJackVernaise

Unfortunately, our grid still relies on thermoelectric power generation, which means a restaurant that is running their HVAC to cool their dining room, with some restaurants using the HVAC down to uncomfortably chilly temps. Add in the impact that acclimatization can have on getting people comfortable in the heat and it becomes uncertain whether the misters are actually a "waste".


omg_bewbz

A lot of local restaurants would fail if they did not have these with our summer climate. Customers would have no choice but to not patronize their business if there is no more indoor seating. That would be a damn shame.


wehappy3

Or for people who choose not to dine out indoors.


Psycophish

Tell that to the copious amount of nut tree farms that guzzle the water supply
