“Glamour Road” Exhibit – California Automobile Museum
California Automobile Museum
Following the end of World War II, the American automotive
industry hired many designers and stylists from the fashion
industry as automakers made a direct appeal to the rising
sophistication and influence of women. The colors, materials, and
angles of many cars from this era all reflect this mindset.
Join us in exploring the seldom told story of how glamour,

automotive marketing from the postwar 1940s through the 1960s.
Exhibit runs from August 5th to October 31st.

Willie’s Burgers
A Sacramento original. Chili cheeseburgers, fries, shakes, and late night eats.
Willie’s is a quirky burger joint specializing in timeless classics that made drive-ins and diners famous. The menu is full of traditional favorites such as onion rings, chili cheese fries, milkshakes and big, juicy hamburgers. Owner Bill Taylor, a Land Park native and the “Willie” for whom the Sacramento restaurant is named, made it his mission to offer locals a serious burger joint. The community responded by making Willie’s one of the most successful burger operations in town. Taylor perfected his skills while spending time at the legendary Tommy’s in Los Angeles. He took his hibachi with him wherever he went after learning to cook in the National Guard. With three locations—the original right off Broadway, a second in Arden-Arcade and a new third space in Old Sacramento headed by Taylor’s son Greg and Greg’s wife, Rachel Glabe Taylor—Willie’s ensures there’s always a burger within reach.

Rio City Cafe is a family-owned restaurant that opened its doors in May of 1994. The building itself is historic and was replicated after a steamship warehouse set during the Industrial Revolution and Gold Rush in the late 1800s. It brings an open, airy, and rustic feel with that classic touch that ties in with the rest of the Old Sacramento Waterfront District. We have both indoor and outdoor seating available as well as offer a full bar. Being both a relaxed and formal setting, we are great for any occasion or celebration. We can accommodate large parties and banquet events, as well as host private parties in our banquet room for special occasions. During the colder winter months, enjoy the view from inside near our cozy fireplace or on our heated and enclosed patio.
The Chef’s approach is to present fresh, wholesome farm-to-fork ingredients and combine them in a way that is attractive, tasteful, and creative–simple food elevated. We offer California Cuisine with a focus on specialty meats and seafood that we create with influences from all over the world.
We offer a full bar, specialty cocktails, beers, and a well-rounded wine list.
