The Rind :: Restaurant & Cheese Bar

Welcome to The Rind

Welcome to The Rind, a farm-to-fork restaurant in Sacramento where artisan cheese meets comfort-style cuisine in a cozy, relaxed setting. Craving elevated flavors with a laid-back vibe? That’s us. Seasonal ingredients, handcrafted dishes, and local charm — all centered around our love of cheese.

Since 2013, The Rind has been a Sacramento favorite for artisanal dining, wine, and craft beer. Explore our selection of over 50 artisan cheeses and charcuterie, or dig into our signature grilled cheeses, mac & cheese creations, fresh salads, and our famous roasted tomato soup. Don’t forget dessert — it’s the perfect way to finish your experience.

Whether you’re joining us for dinner, date night, or drinks with friends, The Rind is your destination for authentic, seasonal, and cheese-inspired dining in Midtown Sacramento.

Join us inside or on our patio. With lots of outdoor seating and a beautiful dining area inside our welcoming restaurant, we look forward to meeting you.

RESERVATIONS: Unfortunately we do not take reservations. We have a cozy and narrow restaurant limiting party sizes to 6-8 people on a first come, first served basis. Please come on by, we promise to get you in as quickly as possible!

PRIVATE GATHERINGS: We look forward to helping you make your events special. Our Garden Patio or the entire restaurant may suit your needs if you love an intimate and cozy restaurant with great food and service. If you are interested hosting a larger group, please email us at sara@therindsacramento.com for more information.

Thank you!
