La Venadita

You know I love my Mexican food so obviously I’ve been patiently awaiting La Venadita‘s opening for months after getting word that the owner of Doña Tomas (a super yummy Mexican spot in Oakland–which I also actually happened to eat at just a few days ago!) had a restaurant in the works for Sacramento!  The taqueria and bar opened last month in Oak Park, an up-and-coming neighborhood that’s already developed quite a bit since I moved to Sacramento just a couple years ago.  My girlfriend Stephanie and I grabbed lunch there last week and it’s safe to say it’s now at the top of my list of local Sac gems. The one thing I’ve felt that has been missing in Sacramento is more low-key yet trendy feeling spots that you would find in the Bay Area or New York and La Venadita is totally it. I know my guy and I will be fast regulars, in fact we’re heading for a date night later this week so he can try it too!

This LoveShackFancy top and skirt seemed like the perfect combo to wear to get my Mexican fix (also kind of perfect for the theme, and love this dress too!).
