Logan was awesome, super friendly and casual, funny, and in the spirit of the season (great sweater). We made it in about an hour before closing on a Wednesday, service was tip top on it!
Logan gave good insights into drinks and food -flavors, strength, etc.
Food was all very well flavored/seasoned and good portions.

We eat here all the time, the food is amazing and delicious however the customer service is terrible. We usually order to go, but the barrenders and particularly the girl who answered the phone on 12/19/24, must have been done doing her job tonight. It's frustrating, because they shouldn't hired such mean and grumpy people

This location has a pub vibe rather than the outdoor brewery vibe. We were seated immediately. Our server was nice. We ordered the fried shrimp, the piggy bank Mac and cheese, the pork chops. For drinks, I got the Chai me a River as a trial and I loved it so now that's what I have at every Karl Strauss. The food was good. Their Mac and cheese is quite well-known and rightfully so - creamy, cheesy and melts in the mouth. The bacon, ham and sausage were great additions to the palate. The fried shrimp was fantastic! The spicy mayo with it gave a lot of depth to the shrimp itself. The pork chops were also great but the star of that dish was the firecracker/spicy mustard sauce. Absolutely delicious and if I could just get that sauce to add to all my food, I would.

You can sit for as long as you want, no questions asked. The pricing is on par with the other KS locations. They have a parking lot and street parking in the area.

We stayed at the resort across the parking lot. Staff recommended the restaurant. Good microbrew selection. The beer was good. We ordered appetizers. The pretzel came with a couple of sauces. The chicken wings were cold. We sent them back and waited and waited. Eventually they showed up. Needless to say the second set was soggy and wierd texture. We took them carry out container to throw them away.
Manager stopped by our table to check in. We asked for our check due to staff that seem to forgot about us. She brought the check and apologize for serving the cold wings. She credited us back one of our beers for the inconvenience. Wait staff were inattentive. Go for the beer but the food...

Didn’t know what to expect but was very happy with our choice! The meals were excellent and our server, Daniel, was knowledgeable about the menu and helped guide us to the chefs best offerings! Will definitely be coming back!

Still a great mid level eatery. Probably the best? Of the brewery/food places. Certainly better than bjs or oggis.

We were so disappointed. The service was terrible. We had to ask for everything, menus, check, beers. The beers are pretty tasteless and a flight of 4 tasters was $12. Ordered the burger and a chicken sandwich, both just under $20. We had to flag someone down to take our order, which was a guy just walking by. We put the menus on the edge, signaling we're ready, which went ignored by all bar employees. It took >30 minutes to get our food, which came out cold. The sandwiches were medium temp and the fries were cold so we sent them back. Had to find someone to help with that as well. After eating, we sat there for about 15 minutes waiting for someone to take the plates and give us our bill. We had to ask for the bill as well from a guy cleaning the floor. We won't be back. Plenty of places in north county for a $20 burger and mediocre beer.

Get the pork chops and one of their micro brews. You won’t regret it. Best pork chops I’ve ever had. The mashed potatoes are amazing too and go great with the chops.

Meh! We went for happy hour and the only two things about the visit was the price of $6 beer and $10 appetizers and the actual beer. The boneless buffalo wing tasted old and had a soggy weird texture. The kids burger were good portion but somewhat tasteless. The ahi poke nachos were horrible, the chips bland, the tuna smelly and not at all fresh; only positive was the sauce on it. Atmosphere is good, the service was rather slow and they forgot 2 of our orders.
