I've been here a handful of times and it has always been on point with service and food. Today's brunch was amazing. I wasn't a huge fan of the deviled eggs because of the mustard but my table partners gobbled them up. The blueberry bread pudding was so yummy. The burger and fries with the bacon jam compote hit the spot. We came here for a birthday and they take a little photo which is nice and print the name on the menu. We ordered these 5 dishes and a couple alcoholic beverages and the price was under 150 which is not bad. Indoor seating is a bit fancier. Outdoor is more chill and pleasant with a beautiful view. I have been upstairs for the velvet martini but that's a separate review.

This place has been on my list of places to try for a while. I decided to take my boyfriend here for his birthday dinner- I did not note this in the reservation, because I didn't think of it at the time. We checked in and were seated quickly for our 7PM reservation. Instead of being sat in the main restaurant, we were taken to an upstairs location- which we had no idea existed. Upstairs is a completely different vibe than the downstairs location- and if I would have known I definitely would have requested that we be seated downstairs. It had more of a nightclub feel, not what I was going for on our date night. I'm talking Neon lights, etc. However, our server was very attentive and made sure that we got our order in before the large birthday party group that we were seated next to. The food was also really good. If we ever decide to come back, I'll make sure to request that we sit downstairs- or even outside. Maybe I'd sit upstairs if we had a large party, but it just wasn't my thing.

Sheldon Inn has been on my list to try for a while now. We finally made it in for a birthday celebration and this establishment exceeded any service that we've ever had. For the birthday, they do complimentary personalized menu print outs which was such a cool and fun touch. They also take a photo of the group and print it out for you on the house. Our waiter was amazing!! Got our drink orders quickly. Refilled them before we even needed to ask. Every plate of food we had was tasty! The tender filet mignon, flavorful salmon, juicy chicken! Best calamari we've had. Definitely recommend this place and hope to return soon.

Service was excellent. Attentive and friendly staffs. Food tasted amazing and everything was well prepared. I made reservations online and was seated almost immediately. It was quiet and the ambiance was romantic and relaxing.

Gave 4 stars. Would have been 3 but the receptionist or the girl at the entrance was nice to accommodate my required the night AFTER. Came to celebrate my daughter's 21st birthday on Friday. A gf ordered the calamari and it tasted burnt like it was fried in almost old rancid oil. Another gf ordered the Caesar salad. The dressing was tasteless. And we LOVE Caesar salads. My fettuccini pasta was good but overly sour. Perhaps maybe cut down on the amount of capers used? But the scallops was cooked to perfection as well was the prawns. Daughter ordered her first lavender lemon drop and they ran out of martini glasses so it was served in a regular glass. I think drinks should be served in the type of glass meant to be served. I was bummed her first alcoholic drink was not served in its appropriate glass. Daughter ordered the soup of the day...clam chowder which she devoured so that was a plus. Her 6 oz special of the night was ordered medium rare but came out medium well. Waitress stated the old fashions were served on big cube of ice. But they ran out and perhaps was not made aware so the men at my table was served old fashions with a couple pieces of ice. Perhaps the bar needs to communicate with the waitresses because when the waitress is telling us what's on the menu or how the drinks are served, should be consistent with what is being told to us. It was my daughter's 21st and I didn't want to make a stink of something so little...although misleading. I understand Friday nights can be busy but there should be plenty of proper glasses for certain drinks and ice for specific drinks as well. Also, we sat at maybe the largest patio table they had for 9. One lamp isn't enough to illuminate the table. No one wants to eat their food in the dark. We had to take another lamp from a vacant table and asked for another one. So we ended up having three lamps and that was barely enough lighting. As previously stated, I would have given 3 stars but I forgot the menu with my daughter's birthday on it and our group picture. I called the next day and the lady who picked up my call said nothing was turned in and was probably thrown away but said I could come in and she can have the picture reprinted. Which was nice. I spent over $700 on dinner and not sure if I, or any of my gfs who was there that night, would return again.

What a beautiful restaurant and setting. Very pleasant evening sitting on the patio. Service was a bit slow but on the other hand we weren't rushed, so had a nice leisurely dinner. The plates were full of food. It was all very tasty but I was disappointed with the steak special, overcooked and tough. For the price thought it would be better quality. Mentioned it to the server and we received a complimentary desert. Would have been nice if they could have discounted the meal. The desert tray was impressive.

February 22, 2024 Sheldon Inn never disappoints. We always have a good time here, and the food is wonderful. We are club members of the Adkins Winery, and as such, we accrue points that we can use at Sheldon Inn for a pre fixe meal and wine pairing. Always a pleasure. Once seated, we were given a sparkling Viognier, and the Pre Fixe Menu describing our meal for the night. We started with a crab cake with pickled fresno chiles and cajun remoulade that went very well with our Viognier. It was one of the best crab cakes I've ever had. Next, we were served a Caesar salad that was paired with a glass of Chardonnay. The final course was a stuffed chicken breast that was almond crusted and stuffed with cherries and apricots with a port wine cream sauce, served with herbed mashed potatoes, green beans, and a glass of Petite Verdot. The restaurant has a nice cozy atmosphere, and the service is friendly. Love this place.

Had an early Valentine's date at this place we found online. I never knew how poppin Grant Line could be! The restaurant itself is cozy and smaller than expected. On the left, it was the Sheldon Restaurant and then on the right was the bar. Our table was right in the middle of the restaurant area, our server James came and greeted us right away and to let us know the specials. We ordered a Caesar salad, NY Special and stuffed chicken. Caesar salad was good, I would say the only thing that bothered me was how the lettuce was so big! It wasn't bite size friendly. The NY special was great! I think they massaged the cow and did everything because it was so tender!! Juicy and delicious, highly recommend. The stuffed chicken was sweet and stuffed with apricots (?) everything was very fulfilling!

Another EG Gem. Didn't expect to find a great spot in this part of Elk Grove but excited nonetheless! We had just visited Adkins Vineyard the day before and this place was highly recommended by some of the other patrons. We had always planned on going but its location on the rural part of EG made it tough. Getting into the lot can be a little bit difficult as it can be confused with the shops next to it but this was definitely a great place for brunch. A nice clean and well appointed interior with a staff that was dressed like we were at a 4 star restaurant. They were extremely professional and atmosphere was really chill. The Chicken and French toast was recommended and it really blew me away. Crispy well seasoned and surpassingly the bone was removed from the breast. Along with it came a French toast fruit and a great side of gravy and syrup. Honestly one of my new favorites. I still consider it under the chicken and waffles category but definitely don't sleep on it. Also tried their version of a screwdriver mule and really enjoyed. Defintely worth checking out, and don't forget to set up a registration!

Wow, nestled in the heart of down town Elk Grove, I never would expected such a fine dining experience. We were gifted a gift card to this place, and decided to try it during our anniversary. The accommodation of this place was over the top. Their menus stated "happy anniversary", and they also took a photo for you to remember your special time at their location. Our server Sean was very attentive to our needs, and explained the menu in depth when we had questions. After ordering, their food did that a good minute for it to come out but once it did-everything was delicious. They do not have a paper menu for their dessert, but actually made desserts as their menu. Talk about good marketing, they make you eat with your eyes and entice you more. Sold us, we were suckers for it and ordered dessert. We enjoyed our visit at Sheldon inn! We can't wait to try their brunch.
