Best New Downtown Restaurant: Vote for your favorite 2019 opening
This year was a relatively low-key one for downtown openings, with few new debuts of upscale or date-night restaurants. Still, casual places continued to blossom around DoCo especially. What’s your favorite new spot on the downtown grid? (This poll covers the area bounded by the Sacramento River to the west, Broadway to the south, the Capital City Freeway to the east, and the American River to the north.) Results will be included with our Dining Year in Review wrapup next week. Voting concludes at 9 a.m. Dec. 26.
