This Colonial Revival residence was the home of African American entrepreneur George T. Dunlap and his family. He opened Dunlap's Dining Room in 1930, and for thirty-eight years the restaurant was popular with white, middle-class families, state government workers, and business, social, and religious groups.

When we photographed the building in 2006, it was occupied by a non-profit, service organizations.

A resident of Sacramento notified us that "this restaurant was also the only restaurant listed for Sacramento on Page 9 in the 1959 Guide For Travel & Vacations, The Negro Travelers’ Green Book."
