I had dinner at this small restaurant and enjoyed myself. It is very hipster and very âProgressiveâ but all the same a decent place. I had the OG Dog with peppers. The barkeep recommended a medium lauger and all was well.This location is on a decent strip to walk and see people and pop in beer joints

Even with the 2 by 2 matrix that is intended to help you select a cocktail, it is a challenge to select one. Truthfully, the Silicon Valley table isnât that helpful. A conversation with one of the helpful bartenders is a better way to identify your choice. The food is average. Better to have a cocktail here and go somewhere else for dinner. You order your drinks and food at the bar.

Waited a really long time to even get our menus and had to go and ask for them at the front. Then another long wait to get served. The waiter couldn't answer any questions about the menu. Overall horrible service.Food quite good. Appetizers were tasty, and the Shrimp Po Boy was excellent.

The thing is, I actually LIKE this chain. I love the choice of many types of burgers (beef, chicken, vegan, turkey, mahi mahi, another vegetarian one, and I think others) and the many options for buns, toppings, and so on. It's a lot of fun to fill out the menu. And the people were nice.But why when I order does it take like 30-40 minutes for the food to arrive? For a burger. A very cool burger, sure. But COME ON! And it's not once. Every couple of years we think of coming here, we do so, and then remember why we've stayed away.We ate at this chain in LA and had no problem. I don't know what the deal is here. But whatever it is â it certainly spoiled my day.PS â As mentioned in other reviews: It sure isn't cheap!

Attentive, friendly service. Seemed overworked ( hard to track down) but still excellent service with a smile. Located on the main drag of Santana row, close to multi story parking structure. Great beer selection, high energy. Bar food, like burgers, wings, nachos, fried stuff are all good. Higher price menu items that require more delicate cooking method and more attention from the cooks are not worth venturing into. But that is not this place is known for. Stay with the beer and bar food and you will be extremely happy. Even though the sitting process after you reported to the host or hostess stand is a bit chaotic, come on in, enjoy the friendly service and get involved with the energy of the patrons provide your own energy, it is a happy place.
