Had quite the experience at Hawks which leaves me with mixed feelings. My drink was fabulous. The general manager, Cody, was super nice and respectful. The food was surprisingly poor….and wasn’t sure to take it personally or what because other plates that came out looked great. I ordered the fried chicken plate. It is just me or does it look extra extra extra crispy. Mashed potatoes needed salt and brussels sprouts were pretty good. The deviled eggs were the best part of my meal. I kinda felt ignored when I sat down until greeted by Cody. They obviously had regulars there who may have been given priority service but I still think everyone should be made to feel welcome. #honestreview

Hawks Public House is an absolute standout and a true gem in Sacramento. From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere felt warm, inviting, and effortlessly stylish. It’s the perfect setting for a relaxed yet refined dining experience.
The service was exceptional — attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely welcoming. The staff made thoughtful recommendations and ensured everything flowed seamlessly throughout the evening.
The food was outstanding. Each dish showcased fresh, seasonal ingredients prepared with creativity and precision. The flavors were beautifully balanced, and the presentation was elegant without being overdone. Every course felt thoughtfully crafted and memorable.

We decided to give this place a try after eyeballing it for a while. Wasn’t sure what to expect, but we were quite underwhelmed. We ordered the Kennebec fries to start, and they were some of the crunchiest fries I’ve ever had. The texture reminded me of in n out but thicker, lacked seasoning other than parmesan and chives, hurt my teeth after couple of em. The parmesan was very flavorful and the dip made them eatable.
We then ordered the pork belly appetizer and carbonara next. The pork belly was the best out of the 3 dishes. Very light yet nice smokey flavor and soft texture. It came with watermelon radishes that added a sweet pinch to it. The carbonara though, was probably the most bland one I have ever had. I have been to Italy and around couple of good restaurants to know what a good authentic carbonara is, unfortunately this dish wasnt worth it here, especially for $32 and a 2% surcharge which is a different issue (I firmly believe that the restaurant workers should be fairly compensated by the restaurant and not worded towards the consumer to blame for unfairly wages that restaurant is not paying the workers).
Anyway some other positives – the staff was nice and the Arnold palmer i ordered was really refreshing albeit sour.
Other big negative – it was really hot inside, took away from the experience a bit. Will definitely not be coming back here anytime soon.

The food here is interesting without being experimental. Everything on the menu is well thought out and cohesive. If you are really a foodie, this is a required stop in Sacramento.

Hawks is one of our go to places in town that we consistently enjoy. If I could do 4.5 I would because it is very close to a 5 but a few things hold it back. The food is reliably delicious and at times incredible. Highlights over the last year have been scallop crudo, a pork pâté, mushroom gnocchi, pork shoulder ragu, Fried Chicken Monday, the roast chicken with au jus. The service is also very excellent either at the bar or table. Drinks are consistently good if not amazing.
What holds it back is the fairly consistent unavailability of items on the menu. Whether it’s mixed drinks, wine, a dessert, or being out of fried chicken it makes for a frustrating dining experience. You settle on a choice and then are told politely oh sorry we’re out of that. Once I had two wine choices declined due to being out and the other evening the friends we dined with had 2 drinks and a dessert not available. The wine list is also fairly limited, we often can’t find a choice we truly enjoy.
All that being said we will absolutely continue to go to Hawks Public House and would also love to check out their location in Granite Bay.

Long time fan of Hawks – however I came in with a group of friends tonight & was super disappointed with how slow the service was tonight. First the drinks took 30 minutes to come out, which on A Saturday night i understand and didn’t think much of it. Then entrees took over an hour to arrive. As we’re waiting, the restaurant was almost empty & we couldn’t make any excuses for why the food would take so long. Our server didn’t give us any explanations. And when the food finally did come, it wasn’t even hot.
As someone who’s worked in the industry before, I kept thinking surely they will try to apologize for the wait, maybe offer a dessert or comp an appetizer to make up for it – but nothing was offered. There was no apologies or explanations.
For a restaurant of this caliber, I was super disappointed. It honestly ruined the vibe of our gathering out. If our server could have at least tried to a

It’s a get together dinner night with a bunch of great colleagues. Hawks Public House was chosen for our group of 10 on a Tuesday (7/30) evening.
Hawk’s is located off a fairly busy street off Alhambra Blvd. Free parking is available off Sutter Medical Plaza. The restaurant is pretty small and the dining area seats probably 75 people or so is my guest. There’s an amazing bar inside decked out with all kinds of spirits along the wall. Decor is warm and inviting.
We were seated along the West side of the building. Given the timing of our get together (5:30pm), a couple of us were seated facing west while the sun was setting, which made it really bright and warm.
Our server was awesome. She was very patient with us. She got us started with drinks while we waited for the rest of our party to arrive.
In terms of the food, we had ordered Deviled Egg and Kennebec Fries for appetizers. The Deviled Eggs were delicate and full of flavor. Each order had 6 little Deviled Eggs. The Kennebec Fries were good but nothing special.
For our main course, we ordered the Rigatoni, Spaghetti Fra Diavolo, Rotolo, the Grilled Pork Chop, and the Dayboat Scallops. All sounded very interesting. Our food arrived within 20 minutes upon ordering. The presentations of the dishes were all amazing. However, the portion size for some of the dishes were much smaller than expected, especially the Dayboat Scallops. The dish was so small it was actually comical. We had joked that we’d starve and would need to fill up on booze instead. I personally had the scallops and while it was very tasty, it was on the saltier side. The three pieces of scallops were full of flavor and very yummy.
The cocktails were good but did fall short of expectations. I had ordered the Hawks Tonic, a cocktail made with gin, homemade mediterranean tonic, and lime juice. The lime was too much and overpowered any taste of herbal that I was expecting in a gin cocktail. It tasted more like a limeade than a gin cocktail. The presentations of the cocktails looked amazing though.
For desserts, we had ordered a Mocha Pot De Creme and a Lemon Olive Oil Cake. Both turned out really good. It wasn’t too sweet and had the right balance of flavors. Some ordered the dessert wine and said it was excellent.
Our dinner came out to be about $100 per person for the evening which included a couple of drinks, appetizers, main course, dessert, tax, and tip.
So how did Hawks Public House score in my book? Here it is:
Service is a solid 5/5. Our server was awesome. She was a great host and wasn’t over bearing but was always available to us. Dining area is a 4/5. The windows could use an upgraded shade to block the sun from beating down on guests seated facing west. It just got too warm and we were practically sweating. The drinks are a 3/5. The cocktails look better than it tasted. Mine tasted more like a limeade. I ended up switching to a glass of wine after and it was so much better. The food is a 4/5. The presentations of all the dishes were amazing. All were very tasty but portion size for some were much smaller than expected and left some of us still feeling hungry! Desserts were very good. Value to price ratio is about a 4/5. Overall experience is about a 4/5.
While we all had a great time at Hawks, the overall experience was mixed. With the small dining space the noise level got up there and made it challenging to carry a conversation especially as the evening went on. I felt like we had to raise our voice and yell in order for us to hear each other. Do ask about portion size before ordering so you don’t go hungry. It’s unlikely you’ll have left overs. For drinks, stick with the wine instead of the cocktail. I’ve had my fair share of cocktails and Hawk’s cocktail fell short of expectations. Plan to pay a premium for the overall experience. Make sure you’re with good company to make it worthwhile. I certainly was.

Today’s trip wasn’t the first and definitely won’t be the last. Made reservations just in case and was pleasantly surprised that it was too busy when we showed up, but it began to fill up more and more shortly after. The service was perfect, checked on, water filled, orders taken all at a perfect pace that didn’t feel interrupting, nor forgotten. The pasta was sooooo good, the brussel sprouts were cooked and seasoned perfectly, and the cookies to finish it off were hot, gooey and delicious!

Damn delicious! The Gnocchi to start…the sauce was so good, used the bread to soak it up. Brussels were really great balance of flavor and spice. Lobster spaghetti was dynamite for being in middle California. A generous amount of lobster. This Sourdough bread pudding with gelato…just order it no matter how full! So damn good. Also great service, food was so good, almost forgot that the service was spot on!

O, I think I’m in love. What a find. Right on the outskirts of Midtown on Alhambra, with plenty of parking, who knew? Hawks was a welcomed surprise. Ambiance, wonderful smells coming from the kitchen but not pretentious. A great menu, something for everyone and at the bar, Bob Ross painting a landscape in the background. My burger was juicy, favorable and just the right size. I will definitely be going back.
