" The restaurant is just wonderful with one big exception. The small amount of wine which is served in the wine glass was a huge surprise. I have never seen that little wine served in any restaurant. The service was excellent and the food was very good, but my goodness you must do a better job of filling the wine glass. We probably will not go back because of that. "

Good food, portions too small ! posted on 03/08/08 overall  7 taste  8 décor  8 service  8 atmosphere  8

" The food was very good.It's a nice place, sitting outside in the summer would be special.However I left wanting for more food.I don't understand the small portions thing.I expect a meal that is balanced, by this I mean that I want a healthy portion of carbs and vegetables served with my entree.At these prices it's not too much to ask.I had the short ribs which basically came by themselves.Weird.No side orders like mashed potatoes even available on the menu.Major oversight IMHO.

A little bit of heaven.......... posted on 03/06/08 overall  10 taste  10 décor  9 service  9 atmosphere  10

" A few things must first be noted about Hawks restaurant. First, they have been open only a very short period of time. Second, the ambience is exceptional. It is obvious that the restaurant has been financed for the long haul. This is very good news, because the quality of the cuisine is exceptional. The chef's are very eager to please, and the prep work is evident. This restaurant is lovely and worth every penny. One note: to the diner that compared this bit of heaven to P. Martins American Bistro your comparison is almost funny. Chain food compared to Hawks? Please adjust your palate or just dine at places where the actual food is irrelevant. Hawks is a blessing. "

" I hate to disagree with the first review, but we found Hawks to be overpriced and pretentious. The food was good, I won't deny, but it was in no way GREAT, and yet the prices were appropriate only for the very best in quality and preparation. For a much better meal for a price that's actually more reasonable, try Paul Martin's American Bistro instead. "

Big disappointment for a pricey lunch posted on 01/09/08 overall  4 taste  3 décor  9 service  9 atmosphere  9

" My husband and I had lunch today at Hawks. I had crabcakes entree and he had petrale sole.Both entrees could be described as petite. In addition my crabcakes were literally devoid of any flavor. My husband's entree was about 4 ounces of petrale sole on a large bed of spinach. Both entrees were at the top of the price point for lunch. This does not deserve a return visit even though we live in the area. Don't make a special trip. "

" We have eaten at many fine establishments in the Greater Sacramento Area over many years, but this was one of the most elegant experiences we have had in a long time. As my subject line reads, decor to dessert, there we no misses. There was no need to look for a wait person, water glasses always filled, bread always replaced, very attentive wait staff without being in the way. The food was wonderful from beginning to end, wine list is fairly complete. We glady paid the $20. corkage for the bottles we brought in. They will comp a bottle for every one you buy off their list. We will definitely be going back and recommending to all of our friends. "
