Sorry for the negative review, but I felt harassed by the wait staff because they kept constantly coming over to the table and asking if we were done or if we needed boxes. We were there less than 20 minutes and they asked 2 or 3 times before I told them to leave us alone. It felt like being pressured to leave when the restaurant was basically empty anyway. No one was waiting for a table and there was plenty of seating. Felt really unwelcoming which didn't make me feel like the mediocre food was worth the high prices. I was not surprised to hear about their recent health code violations with the health inspector, it seems like people there don't put in as much care as they should. I hope they improve so I can update my review.

First time visit and came during happy hour. A few customers but not busy. For the price, 2 stars is being generous.

Ordered the Cheese burger + sweet potato fries off the happy hour menu, and a Strawberry Mangostein beer.

Price: $30 after tip
Food: The medium rare burger was cooked perfectly for me, and despite the burger being pretty plain for a $15 burger.. it could have been good.

The problem? Zero seasoning or sauce, an absolute crime. Light on the cheese for a 1/2 lb burger also. All in all, a sad meal to eat. I realized post meal I could've added my own salt to the burger, as I'm sure that would've made a world of difference. It just never occurred to me you know lol..

Sweet potato fries also no seasoning or sauce, cooked good otherwise. More enjoyable than the burger but was hard to get their salt to stick.

Beer was unfortunately meh also, but not a huge dis. I loooove some fruity beers, but they're hard to find. Most breweries don't get the balance right. I'm sure their regular beers are good.

Waitress was fantastic (never got her name or I forgot) and I talked with her about the burger / fries.

She said they don't season their sweet potato fries (should absolutely be advertised as unseasoned IMO). She said they normally season all their burgers, and some burgers also have sauces on them.

The theory was that maybe someone else ordered the same burger and asked for no seasoning, and it got sent to me by mistake? Or the chef just forgot but the chef had gone home so we don't actually know what happened.
Either way, you can't be charging someone $20-30+ for a completly unseasoned, unsalted, unsauced meal. I refuse to say DRY because again, burger was cooked good and not dry at all. Just tasteless. Though ig the fries were dry? Maybe I should've asked for butter or olive oil, as that would've helped getting salt to stick on them. Then the fries could've gone from 1/10 to 9/10 easy.

Final thoughts: This place definitely has potential to be a 3-4stars for me if the food had at least been salted. For the price however, I'd still expect a lot more for a $30 meal during happy hour. Don't want to look what their regular prices are O,╭⁠╮O

p.s.TOTALLY forgot, I asked them about parking and you HAVE to pay a minimum of $3.50 to park street side, per hour. A metaphorical nail in the coffin for me🪏🪦

Amazing burgers (Cheeseburger, Spicy Guacamole, Pastrami burger and Bacon fusion) and good grilled chicken sandwich paired with a yummy stout and a pint of red ale. We enjoyed all of this in the District area of West Sacramento. It was a beautiful unseasonably pleasant summer day in a beautiful vibrant part of time . I would return to enjoy the area's shopping, entertainment offerings.

I’m not sure why I haven’t been to burgers and brew in a while. The first time I had it was many years ago. I was craving a burger tonight for dinner and was wondering where should I go and then I thought to myself oh wait burgers and brew! The place is nice. They have a lot of outdoor seating and also indoor seating. It is open seating so you get a menu and decide what you want, then go order at the counter. They give yoj a number and they bring you your food. I opted for the bacon cheeseburger and upgraded my side to the garlic, curly fries. The food came out fairly quick. The burger was amazing just how I remembered it but even better this time around it was super juicy and everything tasted fresh. The barbecue sauce was also pretty good. The only thing that didn’t go as good was the taste for my garlic curly fries. Those were OK. I don’t think I would order those again. I would just get the normal fries other than that everything was great. The servers were also super nice and very attentive. They also have a very big list of beers.

Burgers and Brew is becoming a favorite spot of mine for a great burger! So far I have not been disappointed in any of the burgers I’ve tried, they are cooked how you want them, very filling, the fries are tasty, and of course served with a pickle spear on the side. Their garlic fries are delicious and they have a large menu full of different items including chicken options and vegetarian dishes. I always get a cider when here and I like that they have different options not just one on tap.

The indoor is spacious with a good amount of seating and their outdoor patio also seats a lot of people. The restaurant is laid back and you can come here either on a night out before stopping by any of the nearby bars or for a casual meal. Staff are super friendly and attentive! Absolutely love coming here!

The first time I got burgers here it was just okay. Tried again today and it was so raw it.could have mooed, and I ordered meedium well. The chicken strips for kids were so burned and hard and were inedible. I ordered on doordash. The delivery was great the food was not. I wish I could include a photo. Worst experience after a long work day. Never again.

Have been coming here for years and I am never disappointed by the quality of service and food. It’s always one of my favorite spots to bring friends, colleagues, visitors and more. Servers are super friendly and accommodating. Happy hour is great and they have a nice selection of local beers. Keep up the great atmosphere :)

Worse place to take your family too on this street. They let people smoke and eat in there outside dining tables when there is kids around. Servers and employees and smart asses saying they can’t do nothing about the smoking even tho it’s in there premises. Very disappointing experience won’t ever go back might even escalate the smoking situation.

I absolutely loved the Restaurant and the atmosphere, however as I was dining, (well to be fair I had not received my actual food yet, just my drinks) the restaurant next door took out their blower and began to blow off his outside dining area, (which I happen to be sitting directly next to) I apologize for speaking in the manor I did, but as you can imagine I was quite offended, when I had to ask him to please stop blowing his leaves into my drinks… other than that I loved this restaurant

3 weeks ago we decided to go here. The burger was amazing delicious. I didn’t order a beer I was not feeling drinking a beer, but if I did I would go again for the beer.
