Karl Strauss Brewing Company

General American sports bar. Pleasant service. Generous beer and wine selection. Open seating indoors and outdoors. Their wine selection has grown over the years and they offer several decent red and white wines. The Karl Strauss beer selection is delicious as expected. Their appetizers are fresh with a nice variety. Ahi nachos. The chips were light, thin, and crisp, and covered in a light sauce with tuna, tomatoes, red pinions, cilantro, and other ingredients.

Every time I come here, I think this restaurant is trying less and less. This used to be a standard, full-service restaurant before Covid. The menu shrunk drastically during, and it doesn’t seem to be going back to its original, larger size. But the bigger issue is the lack of service at the restaurant. I’m glad that we have moved past counter service and ordering by QR code. But the service consistently underwhelms. From food items that haven’t been ordered by management, to a lack of servers, or clear responsibilities among restaurant staff. I was here when the manager decided they didn’t want to turn heat lamps on and just told everybody they were broken. Tonight, there isn’t a clear host and staff is doing a poor job seating. Why is my party of 4 waiting to sit when there are open 6 and 8 tops. I only come here because it’s close to home. This isn’t a great dining experience.

Today, I had lunch with my Aunt and Uncle at Karl Strauss, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the experience! The atmosphere was warm and inviting from the moment I walked in, setting the perfect stage for a delightful meal. Diane greeted us, and she was friendly and patient with my elderly aunt and uncle. Then Melissa took over as our server. She's also very nice, friendly, and attentive. The menu was impressive, offering a wide variety of options to suit different tastes. I started with their Crispy Brussels Sprout, which was incredibly savory. I went with the Ginger Salmon for my main course, and they were absolutely delicious! The fish was perfectly seasoned and cooked, nestled in quinoa, and topped with fresh ingredients that added flavor. To top it all off, I ordered dessert—the Tropical Butter Cake, rich and decadent, the perfect ending to a fantastic meal. Overall, my experience at Karl Strauss was outstanding, and I can't recommend it enough! Whether you're a foodie or just looking for a nice place to enjoy great food and drinks, this is the spot to visit!

Although perhaps not the height of the San Diego beer scene, Karl Strauss offers a laid-back open facility with very drinkable brews and great food to match. We had no issue finding a table and diving straight into some delicious eats. Would be a good place to bring family.

Good food. Good beer. Great service. Great atmosphere. Both indoors and outdoors seating available. The outdoor patio is very nice.

Great selection of beer and quality, hearty food. The servers were friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. We ordered beer, fish and chips, grilled fish tacos, pub burger and Caesar salad. It was all delicious. The restaurant was nice and price was reasonable. We'll be back.

We had a group of 11 for dinner. It was not busy which was nice. But, the service was awful. We waited over 20 minutes for our server to take our order. Then the running brought the food out and we had to wait another 10 minutes before our server came back to check on us. We ran out of drinks and water multiple times. The atmosphere was fun! Maybe if you go sit at the bar. I won’t go back, because the service was so bad, and with a large group (that equals a larger tip!) it was NOT worth it.

Great place for a dinner. Service is great, but some attention to detail will help. The servers are friendly and attentive. However we felt that even though tables were available, we had to wait. A bit pricey.. Will be here before my next birthday !

Came here when I was in town for comic con! I've been to many other locations and I love Karl's So I knew I'd eat well and also drink very well I think this is the original location I think...? Either way Good times Great service And always. Good vibe!

Pretty sweet dinning room warehouse feel yet cozy. Don't drink anymore due to allergies but peanut butter stout is a delicious choice accompanied by some good man n cheese. Chicken sandwich and burgers always Service was on point. Server and manager pulled together and came through with a Bday treat for my wife. Not our 1st visit nor our last. See y'all soon.

Haven't been in a while, but let me tell you, Karl is killin' it these days! GREAT experience today for late lunch / weekend happy hour. First, great service from Charles and a very friendly blond girl whose name I forgot. Sat outside on the comfortable patio under the giant fans. Was advised at around 2:30 that happy hour is 3-5 every day, including weekends...I guess this is my new weekend lazy late lunch spot! We ordered our first round and had an amazing side Caesar salad for just $7.50. Super fresh lettuce mix, homemade dressing and hand-shaved Parmesan. No brainer. When happy hour arrived, our server returned to alert us. Lots of tempting choices. Almost got the boneless chicken wings. Ordered the amazing Carne Asada Fries for just $10 on HH. Thick, seasoned fries, Gorgonzola(!), jalapeño beer cheese, amazing spicy guacamole, lean asada and my favorite pickled pink onions. No salsa needed. They clearly have a chef running things here, and the results are impressive. I'll be back soon!

The beer brined pork chops were delicious and tender. Probably the best pork chops I've had in awhile. Brussels sprouts were crispy and the boneless wings were very tasty. This place can be a total miss on some days but not today. Service was also pretty good today except I never got a refill on my water.

Our server, Joshua, was a Rockstar. Courteous, on top of refills, offered us complimentary beer samples. The Norm mac and cheese was stellar, as usual. The kid burger was relatively large and affordable but not so tasty. The pork chops can be hit or miss and was very dry on this visit. The ginger salmon was creative and delicious with a very unique panko crust. The Caesar salad was also good. All of the other staff was friendly too. Prices are a bit high but it is overall good food with a nice atmosphere.

Service was great did not like the black bean replacement burger. Not something I would order again. Bring the impossible burger back

Yesterday, My buddy wanted to come here for lunch and we were immediately seated outside on the patio on a gorgeous sunny day. We chatted a bit but noticed that nobody was asking to take our order and had to flag down a waitress, which is bad customer service. I ordered a chicken sandwich and my friend ordered chicken soft tacos. He liked his order and mine was good but not worth $21.50. I might come again to order something else but didn't have a great first time experience. They need to do better.

Great atmosphere and huge space for larger parties. We came on a Sunday and there were plenty of seatings. We got some apps to share, brussel sprouts, boneless wings, and the ahi tuna. We got the chicken tenders with fries for my toddler and I got the seafood stew. The chicken tender was horrible. We didn't like the chicken tender breading. It was not the standard breading, it was ok. My seafood stew was sort of bland, it needed a little more salt and possibly an option of pasta or rice, instead of bread. I took most of it home and ate it with pasta and added some seasoning and it was good. Overall, the food was ok. Beers were good though.

I sat at the bar tonight with my partner and parents and enjoyed the Pacers game. The ahi poke nachos were a hit, as always. Mikayla was very attentive at the bar, which was greatly appreciated. Drinks were quick, poured carefully, and she offered us a sample to try something new as well. Wreck Alley (I think) was delicious. Thanks for the recommendation and friendly attention!

big parking lot in a shared plaza. great for large groups or a solo lunch. the menu is full of pub style food from burgers to tacos to salads and more! a bit expensive but what isnt these days. the service was great! our server was attentive and helpful. note that if you make an account, you can received a free appetizer. on your birthday month, you get a free beer / dessert.

Karl Strauss Brewing Company is so solid and such a San Diego staple and institution! We thoroughly enjoyed a meal and some beverages here prior to a movie on our date night. We started with the Ahi Poke Nachos ~ Super generous chunks of tuna and very yummy! For our mains, I got the Ginger Salmon, and he got the Steak Frites! Both were delicious, but WOW his steak was perfection. We'll certainly be back!

This review is strictly in regards to the bathroom situation last night 12/22/25. Apparently the men's bathroom was out of order. They in turn labeled the women's bathroom as "All Genders". Well in my humble opinion they get an F grade. Twice I attempted to use that 1 bathroom and both times men were in stalls with the doors wide open!!! No sir....unacceptable

Came here for a family dinner this week. It was our second time here and just as great as the first. The service was great. Despite no reservations, the hostess helped us find a table to accommodate our larger party with kids. They quickly brought high chairs, kids menus, waters, kid waters. The food was the highlight. The beer brined pork chops were excellent. I've only had pork chops worth writing home about once in my life -- at Kate Mantelini in Beverly Hills which is now closed. Karl Strauss was not that but good enough for us to rave about it throughout the dinner. They were thinner (two pieces) but also bone-in, very tasty, tender, and juicy. The mahi fish tacos were also excellent. Large blocks of fish, fresh veggies, sauce with a kick. The kids menu is a steal. $10 for each option. Our table ordered the kids pasta and fish and chips. The fish and chips were adult menu quality but just a smaller portion. Craft beers paired well with what we got. Easy, enjoyable meal.

We came on a Sunday night and really enjoyed the food and drinks--there's a good amount of space in the restaurant and we were able to get a table for 6. Getting seated was a 20 min wait. Our waitress was attentive and offered suggestions on our entrees and maintained a pleasant, professional and respectful demeanor while checking on us. The food was very good (see photos) with large portions and it was easy to pay by phone using the QR code. Steak was perfectly prepared and flavorful. The Mac on tap had a great top cheesy crust out of the oven too. ----TL;DR---- Pros: really good food and large portions, variety of entrees for everyone and you won't leave hungry Cons: if you're coming for a fun night out, watch out for the rude hostess--she could use some hospitality training Bottom Line: we liked the food, wait staff was great, rude hostess

This a delayed review. We were here on 12/26. I wish could remember out waiter's name. Young guy with dark hair. He was fantastic with a large group. Very helpful with the beer selection and the food was great. It was a cooler day so we ate inside.

Always incredible food, drinks and service at Karl Strauss! We finally got to try their daily happy hour (3:00-5:00PM) and we had an amazing experience! Food was top notch as always and such a good deal, their patio is always wonderful especially during the summer and I couldn't recommend more and can't wait to be back again soon for happy hour!

I visited Karl Strauss the other evening with some friends and was excited to try the Birria Beef Dip. Thanks to the hostess's helpful recommendation, I ordered it--and it was absolutely delicious. The sandwich was flavorful, the beer onions were a great touch, and the au jus was spot-on. As a huge fan of sweet potato fries, I was thrilled to see them on the menu and ordered them alongside my meal. But when they arrived, I was shocked--*every single fry* was less than half an inch long. It looked like I was served the crumbs from the bottom of the bag. I even asked our lovely server, Selena, if the chef could be a little more generous. She kindly checked, only to return and say the chef said no because the portions were pre-measured. Really? Not a single person in the kitchen noticed they were serving a sad pile of fry scraps? I couldn't even dip them in the ranch I ordered--they were that short. I hate to leave a one-star review because the sandwich was excellent, and the staff was friendly, but this was just lazy. When a customer is clearly disappointed and politely asks for a small fix, a good restaurant makes it right. Instead, I was told, "No." That's all it took for me to decide to warn others with an appropriate review. Sorry, Karl Strauss. Sometimes it really *is* the little things that count.

Stopped by now 2 times for a beer and some food. The beer is fantastic and glad locally made. Had the beer pretzel bites with truffle which were really good better than the average beer cheese frozen pretzel. The second time had their version of Tiramisu which was different using beer. Good place, friendly wish they stayed open later

I use this place as a meetup for a quick team lunch and it offers the same great food and service I've known at other Karl Strauss places. It's open and clean and conveniently located. It's not as unique as the other location in Sorrento Valley which has Koi ponds and a serene setting but, good and service are on par. A good choice in 4S Ranch.

Baby bank Mac and cheese was Da bomb! Then they got rid of it. you can order the Mac n cheese and add pork and it kinda taste the same .... Almost

My buddy and I split the ribeye with Caesar salad and then the sausage plate or the wings. They do well with food. The steak is cooked perfectly every time. They have a strange system for waiting on tables, hence the lack of a fifth star.

Amazing that we are not alcohol users but have become regulars at the 4-s ranch Karl Strauss location. Mostly we call in an order of fish and chips to take out, perfect for a couple of older folks with smaller appetites. The order never misses for accuracy and I enjoy the pick up, often wear a tee shirt which generates some conversation the price is right, parking is easy and the home plates are set. Nice

Always a great time here - plenty of options for beer on tap. Ambiance is perfect on a summer day, the windows are usually open for fresh air and a nice breeze. Staff is always friendly and food is good. If you're in a large party, there are many choices to share such as the fries, wings and pretzels.

Great food, service a little slow Ahi poke nachos: Pretty good if you enjoy a sweet sauce with your ahi. For me, it was ok because i usually prefer savory sashimi. Mac n cheese, the norm: should be called The Nom. Extra smooth and creamy Turkey cotija avocado burger: lightly seasoned and delicious. It came with chimichurri watermelon, which was interesting to try once. Ribeye steak, medium: was cooked medium as promised and very tender. Also lightly seasoned with a scoop of herb butter. The grilled zucchini that it came with was extra smokey and we loved it too. We did ask for water 3 times before we got it, so that part of the service was a bit slow. But alcoholic drinks always came very quickly. Alcoholic- i didn't drink but my companions really enjoyed the Chai me a river and the boysenberry beer

My team at work has a running joke that Friday afternoon meetings after 3 need to happen at Building K. Which is code for Karl Strauss. There's a reason we chose to make this our go to haunt. The beer selection is fantastic, the food has tremendous variety, and it's reasonably priced. Especially during Happy Hour. I love getting a $6 drink after a solid workday. When it's warm eating outside is fantastic. And if it's chilly, inside is just as great. Big big fan of Building K.

I've been to a few Karl Strauss's and this location was pretty good! It's situated within a shopping complex in 4S Ranch. There is a large parking lot but it seems to fill up quickly with all the different restaurants and stores nearby. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. We arrived at 6pm on a weekday and they were already pretty busy but got seated immediately outside. We opted for the fireplace table which was nice because we got to eat in front of the warm fire. The food was good and came out pretty quickly (within 10-15 minutes). We enjoyed our salads and truffle fries. Our server was friendly and checked in periodically. Overall, would visit again.

Fantastic brewery with an awesome burger! Great variety of craft beers, friendly staff, and a laid-back vibe. The burger alone is worth the visit -- juicy, flavorful, and pairs perfectly with their IPA.

This place is OK... nothing special but nothing bad. The only Karl Strauss I had ever been to was the one in Sorrento Valley, which is incredibly gorgeous, whereas this is your regular bar/restaurant. It is located in the middle of strip mall suburbia, likely a regular happy hour spot, or place for shoppers to grab lunch or watch a game. I met up with about 8 of my friends for a birthday gathering. The location was chosen because it is spacious and has ample parking, as well as being central to all of our friends coming together. All the the staff were friendly, but we didn't really have service, as for large parties, we use an app on our phone to order, so that we can have separate checks. I have seen this at a few other places, but found it hard to ask questions about the dishes or drinks. I had placed a drink order, and then later ordered my meal, but apparently I had forgotten to send the order in, so was waiting around for my food, while my friends' orders were all arriving. I understand this was my fault completely, but it would have been avoided had we had a server. I liked that they had some salads in additon to bar food. I ordered the duck fat pretzels to share with my friends, and then the seared ahi tuna salad for my entree. I thought the food was decent. I ordered rose' wine to drink, as I'm not a beer drinker. They do not have a full bar, so wine, or a few other canned beverages were the only other option. The wine list was small and they had run out of Sauvignon Blanc, the wine that I had wanted. We came at an off time, between lunch and dinner, so there was plenty of space. The staff had no problem with us staying for a long time, and they were happy to refriderate the birthday cake that my friend had baked. All in all, I wouldn't make a plan to go there again, but wouldn't mind going if a group of friends were planning to return.

The ahi salad was so delicious. Highly recommend! Great portion size and decent pricing! Would come back again. Very clean and well decorated atmosphere. Nice server

Great spot for craft beer lovers looking for a chill brewpub vibe and solid food. The beer selection is excellent--plenty of house brews and rotating seasonals. Flights are a great way to try a little of everything, and the staff is happy to make recommendations. Food is elevated pub fare. The chili lime fries, pretzel bites, and crispy Brussels sprouts were all flavorful and perfect for sharing. Ahi poke nachos and beer-braised pork belly were standouts. Service is friendly and efficient, and the atmosphere is casual with both indoor and outdoor seating depending on the location. Some spots have a great patio vibe, perfect for groups. Only knocking one star off because the food, while good, isn't mind-blowing--and prices can lean a bit high. Still, it's a reliable go-to for a relaxed night out with good drinks and better company. Would definitely return.

Daughter and her friend went to eat at this location on Friday night. Both 14yo. I stayed with them to order via QR code, closed out their ticket and left an 18% tip, picked them up an hour later. Beyond being served their food, they were not attended to - no water, no check ups, no takeout boxes....until they walked to the bar to ask for water and boxes, which they walked over back to their table themselves. Otherwise, the food was fine as it usually is, though now overpriced given the 18% premium to eat it indoors. If restaurants wonder why people hate tipping culture, this is one of the reasons why. I gave the tip ahead of time and customers received 0 service beyond what everyone expects from a quick eats shop with indoor seating. I mean, you don't even order at the counter as it's QR code. I contacted Customer service on principle to ask for a refund on the $12 service tip, we'll see if it happens.

Love their food and beer. Great and friendly service by Tiana, joy, Jenn, mckellah and all!!!!!!!! Many thanks for an amazing experience. - Scott C

Robert was the best server! Gave us great suggestions and service. Would definitely recommend this location

My group of close friends, my family, and I have succumbed to participating in the latest sports craze aka Pickleball. Since many of us are past the half century mark, this sport is our way to stay healthy and to get together, which can be difficult with our busy lives. After a few hours of burning calories, we usually decide to chow down at a local restaurant to gain back the lost calories and to catch up. After our Sunday Pickleball adventure, we chose to eat dinner at Karl Strauss Brewing Company 4S Ranch and we had a fun time enjoying each other's company. Karl Strauss has several locations throughout San Diego with this location being one that I had my eye on for sometime, but never tried until we dined here Sunday evening. The restaurant is located within an outdoor shopping center called the 4S Commons Town Center, which houses Ralph's, World Market, Ulta, Miguel's, and Wendy's. There is plenty of parking available. As you enter the restaurant, you'll notice the following: how spacious it is; the bar with its large selection of taps; the brick facade on the wall with the gigantic phrase "Make Beer, Not War"; the colorful light fixtures, and the distressed wood paneling. There is plenty of seating with tables, booths, bar, and outdoor. The young blonde lady, who was our waitress, provided attentive, friendly, and quality customer service. As I stated above, this was my first time visiting Karl Strauss and I was looking forward to grubbing here because I had heard positive things about the restaurant. I don't drink alcohol or beer, so I wanted to know how their food stacked up to other breweries I've eaten at. The menu is pretty straight forward and has a variety of choices for any type of palate. I was un decided between two choices, but I decided to try their Nashville Shrimp sandwich, which comes with crispy shrimp, hot honey, pickled onion slaw, tomato, arugula, and chipotle remoulade on a toasted sesame baguette with fries. This is a hefty sandwich and you're going to need napkins. I really enjoyed the majority of the components of the sandwich and it was really tasty. The shrimp was hearty, it was finger licking delicious, and it wasn't spicy. I really enjoyed the seasoned just right and thick fries. My only qualm was the sesame baguette. It was not soft and a little tough to chew. I recommend that a softer bread is used because that sandwich was the bomb diggity except for the bread. We finished our dinner by sharing two orders of Cali Mud Slides using 8 spoons. It satisfied our sweet cravings. It truly was a blessing to spend quality time with my close friends and my better half playing Pickleball and spending time at Karl Strauss. I definitely want to visit again to try their Beer Sausages main dish, which was the other choice I had in mind.

Karl Strauss, AKA Building K. Everyone at our company loves Karl Strauss. It's where we hold our team events to celebrate completing projects and quarterly parties. Every waiter is kind and wants to please me so I always tip them well. My main complaint is little things... I want mushrooms with my Mac n Cheese, but it's a struggle. I order them but none show, I ask the hostess and get a small cup of cold mushrooms. Whatever, we'll take it to go and FIX YOUR FOOD AT OUR OWN HOME! Well done, Chef.

Great time. Service was amazing from Tiana, I think she was managing also which is probably why the place was running so well that day!

Emily is an excellent host! She is super welcoming and greeted us right away. She also seated us and let us know the special items on the menu. We had the beer sausages, they were very flavorful, and went incredibly well with my RedTrolley Ale. Music is a bit loud, it was hard to talk at dinner. Otherwise great food, and service.

The food was never dry nor greasy I recommend the boneless wings either for an appetizer or main course. The atmosphere is warm and inviting and the service is wonderful. The people are really nice. And for dessert I ate a Cali Mud Slide

Staff is so friendly. Love the bar tenders Jen, McKayla, Tiana, and Trevor. Always fun time sitting at the bar.

From taking reservation with Madison to our awesome server Joy. We really enjoyed tonight. I was really impressed with Maddison's touch of "Hello! This is Karl Strauss. We just wanted to ask if you had a preference on your reservation for a high or low table and if you wanted a table with chairs or a booth? Thank you!" Well Thank You we did have a preference and she made it happen Joy was equally awesome. She dealt with my husband's strange humor and offered her insights on the food. She was right the chicken tacos were perfect. We loved all our food, fish and chips, chicken tacos, rice bowl, and of course the beer. Thank you all for a great night

I was greeted right away by a hostess and seated instantly. There are a lot of bar stool chairs and high tables. I have a cane so I was a little nervous if there would be accommodations for me but luckily in the back is where they keep normal height table and chairs. The service was all over the place. I had about 5 different waiters and didn't know who was supposed to help me and who wasn't. All of the staff is running every where and it makes it hard to ask for things. My table had a, "clean" sign but it was wet and had food on it. I didn't realize it until after I touched a wet piece of food. We didn't receive any silverware until I had to ask for them. Then we get to the food and drinks. I was disappointed that almost all of their drinks are in cans. Even their cocktails. I was underwhelmed with the small on tap options that were available and almost all of the on tap options were IPAs (which I don't care for). I ordered originally a pomegranate martini but it was in a can and had a very off putting underwhelming taste. Since I only had a sip I had asked for another drink and was told I would get it replaced and not charged for this one. I then ordered a wine which tasted fine. As a starter I got the pretzels cooked in duck fat with a truffle dipping sauce. It was okay. It wasn't the best thing I ever ate, but wasn't the worst either. And for my chicken sandwich it was also just meh. It had nice flavor and had a tiny kick of spice. I have had better at other places. When I got the bill I was charged for the pomegranate drink I was told would be taken off. I then had to flag down one of my five waiters and tell them. At first I was told, "no" but after explaining how I was promised he then had to go to the manager which then said he would take it off. When it came to the bill they use, Toast. You can pay through your phone. I was confused because the tip % was more on the receipt than on the Toast app. I would probably give this place 2 1/2 stars if I could. It was way too chaotic for my taste. If someone invited me here I would try and convince them to take me elsewhere and if they really wanted to eat here I would just stay home. It wasn't worth it to me. For 2 people with an appetizer, 2 drinks and 2 entrees it was about $77. Which isn't too bad in price.

Staff is always friendly and food is usually good (maybe skip the calamari which is no longer the rings and has way too much old bay seasoning).

Happy Hour. 3pm-5pm everyday... enough said. I will admit, I don't care enough for their regular lunch/dinner menu but there appetizers are very nice. I come primarily for German/European beers and it's nice to get some good appetizers for a nice price. I get the Poke Nachos and the Buffalo wings and it's a good time.

We liked our visit at Karl Strauss. The steak was good and the beer was great. They have lots of great beers on tap, and a good deal for their anniversary.

Came here on a weeknight to check it out, the restaurant tables were all booked but the bar was open inside and outside. The staff is friendly and accommodating, the restaurant is clean and has a good vibe to grab a drink after work. I will say I disappointed in the drink selection but I'm also not the biggest beer drinker so that's fair. The steak and truffle fries were bomb and the poke nachos were great! The prices however, not really worth it unless it's happy hour.

Classic Happy Hour spot in beautiful 4S Ranch! Appears to be a local favorite for post work libations and nourishment. Pleasant service from the front of house. You can order at the counter and food is brought out to your table. Extensive tap list along with wine and kombucha options. The restaurant is clean, with plentiful indoor and outdoor seating. Lots of parking. Solid spot!

I loved this place very big spacious brewery restaurant the beer was great and the food was pretty damn god as well. Carna asada Fries were amazing. If by Lego land stop in it's worth it good vibes. Service was fast and quick as well

I usually frequent the Karl Strauss near Miramar/La Jolla but was in the area and decided to try this location instead! The vibe is quite different (no pond and not too much greenery here), definitely more of a suburban casual brewery kind of vibe, but still really nice. Super spacious, airy, options for both indoor and outdoor dining. Had the ahi poke nachos which were delicious and were probably my favorite dish I've had at Karl Strauss so far, as well as the buffalo wings!!! Main cons here were that the buffalo wings are boneless with no option for bone-in (if that is your preference), and that the service is a tad slow -- you order at a counter and then they bring the food out to you, but when I was there, there was only one person manning the counter. Otherwise this is a great place for a beer, appetizer or meal in a lovely suburban neighborhood with ample parking!

The service is good, as is the food. I came on a weeknight and most of the tables were full with corporate parties. Parking was especially challenging, even though there was a parking lot. I had the organic salad and enjoyed it. The french fries were also delicious.
