  Great beer and nice scenery inside and out. Food is really good. Definitely a great spot to visit if you haven’t.

  Without a doubt, one of the most picturesque breweries in SoCal with the pond and all the greenery instead of just a big cement warehouse. The beer is great. I didn't sample the food, but they have a real menu and kitchen, not just a food truck.

  Our server, Riley, was great. She gave us some awesome recommendations, mix the peanut butter cup with the wreck alley!

  Went with a group a couple of weeks ago, just forgot to update my Yelp friends. We were seated outside and it was a cool evening, had I realized we'd be outside I would have dressed warmer. Sadly, there was a table beside us that had used two of the outdoor heaters - when they left we asked one of the servers to please move one of them to our table. Food was really good, we had Asada Fries and Shrimp Tacos - would DEFINITELY order both again. We only had sodas, so I can't speak to any of their adult beverage offerings. Service - I don't know where to start. We were told that it'd be easier to use their QR code and order ourselves, which we did. The food portion of my order showed up in a timely manner - however we had to practically tackle a server to bring us our sodas. I understand how it's 'easier' on them if we order that way, but we were grossly neglected. Staff only showed up to our table when after our food or adult beverage was presented to them by the bar or kitchen. They NEVER came to check on us. Not once. Which totally sucks when you have food allergies and want to know ingredients in dishes before you order them. We were a group of work friends that showed up sporadically, which happens when you're meeting work friends after work hours. Every time we had to stop and point out the QR code so that they would know that they're on their own for ordering. I worked in the restaurant business for years and COMPLETELY understand why this is easier on the staff. But it totally sucks as a diner. Sodas and water were left unfilled. Was there a way to go online and get refills of soda/water? Sure never figured it out if there was. The staff that came to the table was nice and patient while we figured out who ordered what. But the overall system sucks. I'd give them another try, maybe not in a group setting. That's unfortunate because their location here is beside a lot of businesses that likely want to do an after-work get together like we did.
