    Excellent food and fantastic beer. No wonder they won the CA Brewery of the Year for 2023. This is one of our go-to spots.

    Had reservation for outside seating and we were seated inside. Was brought incorrect order initially. Shrimp was over cooked rubber. Bland chicken served with Cobb salad. Caesar salad and Craftsman were good. Felt the cocktails we ordered were entirely overpriced. Time to give another place a try next time we visit.

    The steak had good flavor, but it was quite tough, I’d have preferred a smaller, but much more tender cut. The food is definitely decent, but nothing extraordinary enough to justify the price. Excellent waitress. I wish I’d gotten her name, so that we could ask for her again. Our large group goes once a month and when our last regular waiter moved on, so did we. Now that we’ve found another good one, we might resume coming again, if we can ask for and get her.

    Our favorite is the Moules Frites featured on Friday and Saturday. A hard choice between those and the fish and chips. Best fries ever. The burgers are excellent. We always try to get a table served by Jake who is an outstanding server. Favorite drink - Abbey Ale but at Jake's recommendation the Cherry Brandy Belgian quadrupel was an excellent alternative

    Overall this place is excellent. We went on a very crowded Friday night. We had thankfully made reservation. Unfortunately we experienced a server that was less than pleasant. After sitting for over 30 minutes after ordering with no drinks or check ins. I was finally able to get our waiters attention. I had been trying for over 15 minutes. Instead of listening to my concerns and trying to remedy the situation he proceeded to argue with me and walked away. Fortunately the manager took over the service and we had wonderful food and a great time. I find that many of the servers today have no clue how to be an attentive server. Thank goodness the manager, Jake, exudes exemplary service.

    The food and drinks are always good here. Service is great, and Monk's just has a good feel to it. Tuesdays are Trivia nights at 6:30 pm. Very fun!! The host of the trivia is really good. The trivia is challenging. Hint: some of the questions involve current events of the weeks, so do a little prep work.

    Very noisy restaurant, super busy as it was a Friday night. The fish and chips were good. The mussels were just okay. We sat at a high table with two chairs, no place to hang wet coats and umbrellas.

    Their beers are a cut above other micro-breweries. The food was a big surprise. Major wow. French fries cooked in duck fat, that's first class. And the bread for the sandwiches was not only excellent, but buttered and toasted until it perfectly crunchy. And when you throw in outstanding service and very cool vibe, it's now my favorite brew pub.

    The ambience was nice, friendly service. I prefer the creme brûlée french toast with a side of 2 scrambled egg whites. The french toast was hard and I did not enjoy it. It was quite expensive for the what we paid. My husband ordered the Bloody Mary. I have never seen such a small container for a Bloody Mary. He said it was ok …shoulder “shrug”. I will not be going back unless maybe for drinks. I won’t recommend to other friends or family.

    The main reason that we have returned so many times was the consistently excellent service we received from Sergio. I guess he no longer works there, and the waiter we had was mediocre, at best. We will not likely return. What a shame.
