“Recently stopped in as my family and I were in the area. I ordered an iced americano and a bear claw. I love my coffee fresh and bold and my cup did not disappoint. The claw was fresh and tasted amazing. As for the atmosphere, the place gave me that Midwest homey vibe and spacious, which we found to be really comfortable. I didn’t realize that they sold breakfast until it was pointed out to me as we were leaving. I’ll have to stop by to try that in the future.“
“River Rock is pretty easy to find with ample parking shared with other businesses in that lot. We were greeted nicely. My first impression was that it was a bit messy inside. Mix and matches of tables and chairs not in any order and refrigerators and assorted paraphernalia on the walls and against the walls...I get that things (furniture etc) cost a lot so not obsessed with the ambience as there looked to be plenty of seating for patrons. They had a pool table and foos ball table. All the beers we had were good and fairly priced. Bathrooms weren't highly clean. If we pass through town again, we'd probably stop for a quick cold one again. Looked like they sell beer making equipment too.“
“As an EVERYDAY customer, I’ve NEVER had a bad experience! Employees are always pleasant and sweet! Love them all! They even know my mom when she comes through for my drink! Way to go Galt DB, perfect example of spreading kindness! Way to go!“
“Stopped here on the recommendation of another Yelp Elite and let me tell you he was spot on! There was a line for this food truck and that is always a great sign. I wanted a torta and I usually get birria but the girl inside told me they don't do birria so I got the carnitas instead. It was so good! Just how I like it. The meat was dry so my bread wasn't soggy and the carnitas were well cooked; crispy with great flavor. My husband ended up getting 5 tacos, a mix of al pastor and asada and they were delicious. Good size and well seasoned, so of course I had to steal a bite of each to confirm. Not only is the food good, but this spot is a great value. Tacos are only $2 each, so we were able to have a yummy, nice sized lunch for 2 for just over $20. We have tried almost half a dozen food trucks in the area but this will be our go-to from now on for sure. I highly recommend them!“
“We were in town visiting my son this past weekend and tried this small coffee house. I absolutely loved it. My husband and I had a nutty cow latte with oat milk. It was so good. Did not disappoint. I also loved that they knew a lot of customers by names. You can tell a lot of regulars go there. The coffee definitely hit the spot for the cold morning. The shop was also a cute setup. Felt very welcoming.“
“If I can give this place more than 5 stars I would. The food, service and atmosphere were all excellent. We had so much fun here. The 2 guys singing were alot of fun. I'd definitely come back and I hope to see them here again. They really engaged with the audience and brought people together. Truly a hidden Gem.“
“Good place to stop by get some good beer and also have food, which it's also pretty good. Izzy the bartender is always welcoming and really helper on whay beer to get ... i like getting their sours beers. The jungle juice beer is really good and beer is green my favorite color so had to get out ha..if your in the area stop by and get yourself some beer and food..“
“I had my first experience at Swirl’d today and it was such a good one! I got the Macademia Nut and it was delicious! It’s my new favorite ice cream!The staff was so kind and friendly and the atmosphere had a fun 50’s feel to it. I will be coming back and I will be recommending it!“
“I live in Sacramento, but come to the Elk Grove area often and have tried a few different donut shops, but there haven't really been any that have stood out...until Elk Grove Donuts! My daughter and I like to pick up donuts when we are headed over to see my parents. She loves their glazed donuts and glazed donut holes, and I am obsessed with their maple old fashioned donuts! It doesn't matter if it's a weekday or a weekend, they are usually always busy. If you go into the store, you will most likely be waiting in a line, but I promise you, it's worth the wait! You can also place an order on DoorDash, which we will occasionally do. However, if the store is very busy, they may not accept the order. Either way, if you're in the area, give them a try - they also have breakfast sandwiches, coffees, and other drinks!“
“So I've been here a few times now since I moved back to the area. They opened last year 2023 February. My sister, who is a coffee addict, brought me. I just started drinking coffee. They are located in a plaza so plenty of parking. The facade is so cute and always seasonally decorated. The inside is so cute tons of photo opps! Its a mexican themed cafe & you can see it in the decor & the food/drink selection. They have tortas, mexican sweet bread, mexican drinks, etc. The staff has always been kind to me. They have teens working too. Its just very cheery in here which I like. They have a private bathroom, free wifi, plenty of seating, & if you eat/drink here you have the option of using the old school mexican mugs made out of like clay or something which I love! My favorite drink is the hot Mexican mocha, its like an Abuelita hot chocolate with coffee. The music is eclectic spanish and english & not too loud. Anyway, we come here pretty often and I reccomend.“
“Excellent coffee, excellent scones, excellent service. A sweet little place in Lodi with amazing ambiance for a quick treat through out your day. Love the owner and her staff, always so fun to interact with and chat. They make time everyone truly making every person who walks in, be it their first time or their thousandth, feel like a regular!“
“DOGGY BAG ?Never fails to impress me. Meagan was great. Food fresh & delicious. Wine impeccable. We overlooked the majestic vineyards instead of walking the prestigious grounds due to some flooding. Still a beautiful sight nonetheless ? Spring we miss you!“
“Brix and Hops offers a delightful experience for beer enthusiasts. With its inviting ambiance, diverse selection of craft beers, and friendly, knowledgeable staff, it creates a welcoming atmosphere for patrons. The well-curated tap list showcases a variety of flavors, from hoppy IPAs to rich stouts to tangy sours. Additionally, the friendly service and comfortable seating make it an ideal spot for socializing with friends or enjoying a laid-back evening. Overall, Brix provides a satisfying blend of quality beverages and a convivial environment.“
“OHHHH WOWWWW! I had their SURF & TURF QUESADILLA for the 1st time today. It was to-die-for! #excellent You MUST try one. The shrimp is plump, succulent, tasty, fresh, & cooked perfectly. The carne asada is very tasty. They do not skimp on how much of both that they load the nice flour tortilla with. I put the green hot sauce on each bite, & also some sour cream from my refrigerator. Yum yum yummmmm! A nice meal.“
“Art is great and the setting is unique! And, of course, the wines are exceptional!! Unfortunately the tasting charge has gone up as happens everywhere but, of course, waived as we bought several bottles. Also wine club is quarterly and no choice of wines if on the 3 bottle plan. Really like other clubs that let you choose...“
“Adorable spot in downtown Lodi! Love perusing the art and ending with wonderful ice cream! The ice cream options were great, ice cream extra creamy and super fun flavor variety. Nice service, definitely recommend and will be back. Just wish they had a little more art.“
“Had a great time tasting at this beautiful location in Lodi. Not only was the wine yummy but the service was very accommodating and staff friendly and professional. Be sure to add this gem to your visiting experience the hr t time you visit Lodi.“
“Cute little coffee shop! I had seen great Yelp reviews so I decided to try. I ordered the churro latte and it was super sweet and delicious! I recommend for someone who really enjoys sweet drinks. The whipped cream and caramel were great touches. The cups were adorable as well. The girl that was working was super kind and friendly! Highly recommend trying and supporting local business :)“
“Excellent experience. Very friendly staff. Lucas is a small scale winery with roots to the very foundation of wine in the Lodi region. Excellent Zinfandel from a real "old vine" vineyard right outside the back door of the tasting room. Highly recommended.“
“Very nice place for a wine tasting on a lazy winter’s afternoon. A three-piece band was playing music outdoors as we arrived, which was a nice, unexpected touch. There were five of us and we sat at a wrought iron table with wrought iron chairs that rocked back & forth - how fun! Our wine tasting consisted of six wines. All six were very good, but that didn’t stop us from comparing and contrasting each sip that the five of us took. It made for a very enjoyable late afternoon as the sun dropped low in the February sky. As we closed the place down, we purchased several bottles of our favorite wines from that day. We’ll definitely be back.“
“Twisted Barrel was amazing. They were so welcoming with our family. Other wineries in the area wouldn't let kids into their establishments. This winery was so inviting to the whole family. Megan was spectacular! The wine was amazing and the atmosphere was fantastic. Stop by... you won't be disappointed! Excellent customer service!“
“Nostra Vita is my favorite winery here in Lodi. The atmosphere of the grounds are amazing and peaceful to sit back and enjoy one of their wide variety of wines. Their staff is amazing. Knowledgeable about the wines and friendly. Weekend events are always great. The music, food and a great place to gather with friends.“
“Was craving a really healthy delicious salad and Gypsy Bistro had just what we were looking for. The crab cakes were so delicious as well. I couldn’t stop eating my husband grits made from polenta! Yummy!Jenny was our server and she was amazing!“
“This place is bomb! One of my top faves in Lodi. I was always scared to try it until one day my partner introduced me to it and I've loved it ever since.I'm currently pregnant, so unfortunately I can't have my Ahi Tuna bowl. I told my partner once I deliver, a large Ahi Tuna bowl will be my first post-delivery meal, if it's not too late!!! This restaurant is always clean and the staff is friendly.Food is always fresh when I visit!“
“Happy to have had an opportunity to finally try this place with their limited hours. Definitely a cool ambience - very light and airy, really friendly staff and great service, good food. Would like to come back and try for lunch soon. This place is a keeper!“
“Coffee is better then the starbucks across the street. But not as good as Java stop down the road. However, they make that up with their service/shop in spades. The shop gives off a GREAT atmosphere. When you walk in, you can't help but just feel like you at home or at a safe place. I have never had a bad experience at house of coffees. Between the great service and music. Great tables and chairs. You just can't get that at Java stop. Not bad for the second best coffee in town. I suggest the nutty Irishman.“
“So fun and delicious, our server Alisha was the best, super attentive to all of our needs. It was a busy breakfast morning and she took care of every table ✨ for the food, we had to try the soups (split pea and chicken tortilla), my favorite was the chicken tortilla, but split pea was good too :) depending on the mood. Ordered the huevos rancheros, and steak eggs. The steak was cooked perfectly, very delicious juicy and tender cut. We also got a Bloody Mary, also prepared exquisitely.So if you’re in town looking for a new place to try out, you can’t go wrong with the goodies here ✨“
“So many sour beers here! Some aren't on tap though. We liked the ube sour beer, guava sour, mangonada. We brought outside food here to eat with our beers. They even have hook the ring battle game. We came here Saturday around 3pm. It wasn't busy at all. We parked on the street.“
“Great place to have a cigar and a drink indoors. It was over 100 degrees yesterday, and a cigar outside wasn't sounding appealing. So we headed over to Stogies. The walk-in humidor is such a cool experience. There is enough room for 2-3 people to stand inside comfortably and choose a cigar(s) from the floor to ceiling (on all 4 walls) selection of cigars. Then, order yourself a beer, mixed drink, or soda and find a comfortable place to sit down and light up your cigar. You can sit at the bar, tall bar tables, or sit in some comfortable leather love seats or leather chairs. You can also play pool or watch sports on one of the many tvs.Other things to note:This place can get pretty loud (it is a bar :)) at times. The air can get pretty smoky depending on how many people there are having cigars. The air conditioner and heater keep the place comfortable year round. Patrons and employees have always been friendly. They have a members only cigar lounge right next door that is quieter and has a great group of people hanging out (or pick a more secluded area if you like) chattng, reading, or watching TV) while smoking a cigar(s).“
“Fresh ingredients, quick service, nice staff! What more can u ask for!? We had a Hawaiian, but I've had many different ones there! All great!Vegetarian options: U can build your own!Parking: U have a lot of areas to park but it gets busy around 5/6pm kinda far from parking garage unless u want to walk off dinner or just enjoy a nice walk around downtown!Kid-friendliness: Been going there since it opened & my daughter only ate cheese pizza...Wheelchair accessibility: Single level“

“3.5 stars for me.WAYYYY too sweet!Too much sugar in every drink I’ve tried from here. (I’ve tried 6+ drinks from here)Honestly anything you order… you should ask for 1/2 sweet bare minimum. Most drinks I actually order 1/4th sweet because it’s so overboard I can’t even taste the coffee.Great tasting drinks when you cut the sweet pumps. Love their pumpkin spice flavor/ blended drink. Also their seasonal “SNOW CAP” drink for Christmas is AMAZING. Tastes like a birthday cake. Favorite flavor for sure.“
“Service was great! Walked in & immediately got seated even though they were quite busy. We opted for the Sunday brunch which was absolutely delicious and there were tons of options for a good price. In and out in about an hour. Such a cute place too!“
“This place is so good, I didn't even stop to take a picture of my food. It was a full on shoveling food-in-mouth experience. I live in Carmichael and if my extended family didn't live in Galt, I would never have tried this restaurant. That would be so very SAD!“
