Scott’s On the River

Scott’s On the River

In warm weather, the dog-friendly patio at Scott’s On the River, an upscale seafood restaurant at the Westin Sacramento, is an exceedingly pleasant place to while away an hour or two. Ask for a to-go cup and take your beverage to the fire pit to make the occasion last. A specialty appetizer is the seafood tower, a selection of hot and cold seafood served on tiered trays.

Scott’s shares a building with a luxury hotel, formerly Le Rivage, that was reflagged as a boutique Westin property. The complex is on the west bank of the Sacramento  River, adding scenery to the equation. A walking trail winds through the property, offering lots of options for dog walking.

The Westin (and Scott’s) is just off Interstate 5 at the Fruitridge/Seamus exit about five miles south of downtown Sacramento.
