The Corner opened in October 2018 after two years of inspiration and planning. In 2016, Dominick decided to pursue his dream of opening an East Coast “Cheers”-style bar and grill, one that recalls the days when restaurants actually cooked their food and didn’t just warm it up, and when a scratch kitchen was the norm and not a novelty.

Dominick searched Folsom to find just the right neighborhood for making the dream come true. He discovered the ideal place in the Glenn-Sibley area, which reminded him of the pockets of neighborhoods in New Jersey, where he grew up. There, each neighborhood had a bistro or bar that were the social gathering places. The Corner is just that.

“We’re honored to share with you the cultural recipes and techniques passed down through generations of our family,” Dominick said.

“Our intent is to bring a bit of East Coast flair to Folsom, just as we’ve done with Dominick’s Italian Market & Deli and Dominick’s Trattoria in Granite Bay,” he said. “We recognize that customers are the strength of our business, and we’re committed to great service, the best quality and delicious fare in a casual, fun environment.”
