Adriana RuizApril 9, 2018Old fashion is a must! Great liquor selection, friendly, try the mac and cheese and beacon brussel sprouts!! To die for!
Mark TattersallJuly 20, 2016Great vibe. Lots of space at the bar. Tons of beers to choose from and a surprisingly large wine list. The BBQ brisket was nice but dry in parts, but the collard greens & baked beans were awesome.
Brenda RodriguezNovember 23, 2013Great selection of craft beer. Need I say more? Food is not bad either. Bangers and mash are delish. Pomegranate salad is quite tasty too. Sit at the bar, the bartenders are awesome. :D
Russell Van TassellJuly 18, 2014Really nice place with a great beer list, but probably a little pricy for the area (ie. There are good, less-expensive equally cool places in the immediate area)
Jay MarJanuary 1, 2018Great service @ bar, food is decently appraising; mainly basic dishes, prepared well. Many tv’s on side wall for purely sports!
Chase VandergriftJuly 23, 2013This place has a long way to go. They can start by not forgetting to put the bacon marmalade on the union burger (that features bacon marmalade) - draft beers are at least $2 over market prices.- Alison KingApril 17, 2015Salmon spring rolls are bomb! I love the vegetarian burger with the pepper! Also love the Brussel sprout salad when in season!
Kevin CallahanJuly 19, 2017Haven't been in quite a while. Glad we dropped in. Everything we had was very good. Better than before!
Very nice restaurant, love the big screen tv's, atmosphere is hip, food was not bad, nothing to write home about. Will go again to try the flatbread dishes.
Mark YoltonAugust 17, 2013Nice new downtown San Jose restaurant. Upscale casual atmosphere, good food.
J SApril 19, 2023Biscuits were raw in the middle. Prawn linguine average. Chorizo poutine was great, huge portion.
DiegoJuly 25, 2013The burger and poutine are great and The Beer Float (not to be confused with the ROOT Beer Float) is amazing!
50+ beers on top! 200 in. HDTV!! Great food, all grown locally!! You are gonna love this place!!
Honey BallesterosFebruary 18, 2015The filet mignon special was delicious. The union sour is a great drink.
Brian MedeirosSeptember 10, 2014Great choice of beers and smaller plates are a good portion size for non Americans.
Jinnie LNovember 6, 2014pretty good grilled cheese n tomato soup. half roasted chicken was kinda too salty for me.... mac & cheese was yummy though :)
Nick D'AmbrosiFebruary 24, 2015Make a reservation ahead of time and request one of the "cabana" booths!
Rolo T.January 22, 2014Nice staff, but when a customer asks about the private dining room, you don't walk away and say "I don't know, that's not my responsibility". If management wants to speak to me further, I'd be glad.
Patrick DuffyDecember 18, 2017Walked in to a half empty restaurant at 5:25pm. Told we didn't have a reservation so they couldn't seat us. Made a 5:45 reservation on OpenTable and was turned away because we had a child with us.
Christopher BuckleySeptember 24, 2014Add salmon to the heirloom tomato salad for a hearty light meal.
Ryan OtaAugust 22, 2014Waldorf salad was solid. Built almost like lettuce wraps and loaded with toppings
Conner HobsonMarch 4, 2016This place is way overpriced for its quality. The menu descriptions were crafted with more skill than the food, and the juxtaposition was disappointing. The salmon egg rolls were good though.
Rick BucichSeptember 17, 2013Hack or attack @bournetorum's portals while enjoying a burger and beer #ingress
- Alice AllergeekJune 23, 2017Hostess explicitly rude. Won't give you a table in an empty restaurant. Avoid for your own sake.
