If you're in Sacramento in the summer, definitely make sure to go to an evening concert in Cesar Chavez Plaza. Its a great way to enjoy the city and relax outside after a hot summer day.

Saw concerts in the park here - close to a few good coffee shops and there's a mexican restaurant smack-dab in the center.

Stop by Cafe Soliel. They're only open for breakfast and lunch but incredible food. They're usually packed to service is quick. Love their Breakfast burritos , lemonade , and specials of the day.
