Celebrate 20 Years of Dine Downtown!

Tell a friend to tell a friend, Dine Downtown is back again! Sacramento’s beloved culinary tradition is returning January 10–19, 2025. This 10-day celebration brings nearly 30 of Sacramento’s finest restaurants together to offer specially curated, three-course dinners for $45. From unique creations like uni pasta to timeless classics like braised short rib, and eight restaurants offering vegan dishes, there’s something for every palate.

Supporting Our Community

Dine Downtown goes beyond celebrating food—it’s about giving back. One dollar from every meal purchased will be donated to Alchemist CDC, a nonprofit dedicated to helping under-resourced communities access nutritious foods and start successful food-based businesses. By dining out, you’re not only supporting Sacramento’s vibrant restaurant scene, but you’re also uplifting our community.

A Legacy of Culinary Excellence

We host Dine Downtown because after the holiday season is the slowest time of year for restaurants. Since its inception in 2005, Dine Downtown has generated over $6 million in sales for central city restaurants. This event shines a spotlight on the diverse and innovative chefs who make Sacramento the Farm-to-Fork Capital.
