Had an incredible experience at Rustwater Kitchen & Taproom in downtown Fairfield. From the moment…read moreI walked in, I was welcomed with genuine hospitality by Paul behind the bar. Super personable, great energy, and made the whole experience feel effortless. I ordered the peanut butter and jelly burger--smash-style patty with bacon, peanut butter, jelly, Tabasco, and pickles--and wow... one of the most unique and satisfying burgers I've had in a long time. It hits that perfect balance of savory, sweet, and nostalgic. I asked Paul what he would pair with it, and he absolutely nailed it. He introduced me to "Chimp My Ride" from Solano Brewing Company, a rich stout with chocolate and peanut butter notes that complemented the burger perfectly. It honestly brought back that childhood lunchbox feeling in the best way possible. On top of that, Chef Jamie personally brought out the food and took the time to connect--great conversation, great presence, and you can tell there's real pride behind what they're doing here. The vibe, the style, the food, and the people all come together here. Easy five stars. I'll definitely be back.

Some of the best dining experiences aren't planned, they're discovered…read more With the thermometer climbing to 103 degrees, the Spain vs. France World Cup semifinal kicking off on the big screens, and a craving for an ice-cold craft beer, I wandered into Rustwater Kitchen & Taproom, a downtown Fairfield favorite that's been serving locals since 2017. Within minutes, I knew I'd found exactly where I wanted to spend a hot summer afternoon. The atmosphere strikes the perfect balance between neighborhood tavern and craft beer destination. Vintage bicycles hang overhead, dozens of rotating taps line the wall, and the energy is lively without ever feeling chaotic. Whether you're catching the match, meeting friends after work, or simply escaping the summer heat, Rustwater has that welcoming vibe that makes you want to stay for another round. Following the bartender's recommendation, I ordered the Chicken Ciabatta from the specials board with a side of crispy tater tots, and it was absolutely the right call. The sandwich arrived beautifully presented on a perfectly toasted ciabatta roll with just the right amount of crunch. Inside was juicy grilled chicken layered with smoky bacon, melted provolone, crisp lettuce, ripe tomato, and a flavorful pesto mayo that brought everything together without overpowering the fresh ingredients. Every bite delivered a wonderful combination of textures and balanced flavors. The tater tots were exactly what great tavern food should be, golden, crisp, and light on the outside with a fluffy interior. They became downright addictive when dipped into a combination of ketchup and a Ghost Hot Sauce that once they are out they are out adding a slow-building kick that complemented the crispy potatoes perfectly. As I enjoyed a cold pint from their outstanding rotating tap list, Spain put the finishing touches on a 2-0 victory over France, sending them to the World Cup Final. Great soccer, an exceptional craft beer, and a fantastic lunch, it doesn't get much better than that on a scorching summer afternoon. Rustwater has earned its reputation over the years, and it's easy to understand why. Friendly service, an outstanding craft beer program, elevated tavern food, and an atmosphere that invites you to linger long after the final whistle. If you're looking for one of downtown Fairfield's best spots to enjoy creative tavern fare, explore an ever-changing lineup of craft beers, and catch the big game, Rustwater Kitchen & Taproom deserves a place on your list. I'll definitely be back to see what's on tap next, and without question, those crispy tater tots will be making another appearance on my table with the ghost hot sauce, if still available, due to the company going out of business.

There were a couple other events taking place, but it did not take away from my friends birthday Celebration. The staff was great, there was a particular bartender who was super sweet. I just loved her vibe. I wish I would've caught her name. She gave me a compliment on my outfit. I was so busy enjoying the event. I did not get a chance to order a drink at the bar per se, however, I did have a glass of champagne that was brought out to celebrate my friend and toast her for her birthday! I did meet the DJ who was super nice, I feel like he's my new friend! I definitely wanna go back now that I know exactly where this place is located in enjoy it for myself no matter if there's another event or not!

When we left that night my daughter did t use 2 of the tickets and we asked 3 different people if the tickets can be used at a different time at the creekwalk of course. Nobody had an answer we just got I don't know. I even asked the security people when exiting the park. So tonight July10th tried using the tickets and they said no. So we just lost $20 in unused tickets. That's a rip off and very bad business. I even tried emailing asking if the tickets can be used at a later day which nobody has returned my email after 3 weeks. I always support small business this one will never get a penny from any of us again. Shame on you.

The tap selection is ok but it's a small space and they have a a limited amount of taps considering the tight space, but they also have can and bottled of different types. Dogs are welcomed since this is an outdoor space. They don't have food,only snacks like chips. but there's usually is a food truck parked in the driveway. I'd like to give them 6 stars but the unpredictability of the food truck being present is not in their control. Still TRY IT, you'll like the vibe and the beer! Unless you think you're royalty.

On the evening of the incident, a group of coworkers and I went to the Filling Station after having…read moredinner together. Earlier that evening, we had stopped at the Filling Station for drinks and did not experience any issues. The bartenders were friendly and kindly helped us. When we returned after dinner, several of us were seated outside while a few coworkers went to the bar to order additional drinks. While we were waiting, an unknown male walked directly toward our group. He approached the only male coworker seated with us, placed both hands on his shoulders, leaned in, and said something into his ear. The man then walked away. After the man walked away from the table, we asked our coworker what he said, and he told us, "If you leave another empty glass on my table, I will kill you." My coworker appeared confused and stated that he did not know the individual. As the man walked away, another coworker and I stood up and asked what had happened. The man continued walking away without responding. At that point, two women who were nearby began arguing with members of our group. During the verbal exchange, one of the women pushed my coworker. Prior to this interaction, the same women had instructed my manager to move over on the bench as soon as space became available. Following the verbal and physical confrontation initiated by the other party, a bartender from the Filling Station directed our group to leave the premises. The other individuals involved in the confrontation were not asked to leave and remained at the venue. Our group complied and walked across the street. From that location, we observed several patrons and staff from the Filling Station pointing in our direction and laughing. A short time later, we observed one of the bartenders walk to the unknown male's parked vehicle, move the vehicle to a parking space adjacent to the Filling Station, hand the keys to the male, and the male then drove away. Law enforcement responded to the scene, and a police report was taken.

I'm pescatarian. Sales tax - 8.375% ($7.70) I was craving seafood in a bag. When The hubby and I decided to stop in Fairfield to run some errands, I decided to give Bag O Crab a try. I placed my takeout order thru their site. You can tip online so no need to bring cash if you choose to tip for pickup orders. The order comes in a reusable bag. And they followed my note to put the sausages on the side. I thought the food was great. Good amount of heat. Tho for the spiciest level, I always want more. It wasn't quite spicy enough. Good flavor for their OG cajun. My craving was definitely satisfied. I tend to crave seafood in a bag quite often. However, it is pricey for a solo meal, so I try to only indulge every once in a while. Would come again for their c4 combo. REVIEW #4033

The inside of the restaurant is really cute & spacious, we've always been lucky enough to sit in the booths. We came today & ordered combo #2 with atomic sauce with dynamite spice along with their garlic noodles. The food itself was jam packed with so much flavor, it was delicious! The dynamite spice is perfect if you're someone who enjoys spice. If you don't know already, they do make you pay immediately after ordering so be prepared for that! Our server was nice as well & made sure we were doing okay. The only issue that has happened during previous visits , is that our server would disappear completely & we'd be left with no refills & no help when needed. That's just one little thing this place needs to work on, but the food is fantastic! Always my favorite place to visit when I'm in fairfield

I initially booked an olive oil tasting but later discovered that it was more of an educational thing where you have to sit in a room. With a baby and a dog , I was hoping we can just enjoy that outdoors but they weren't able to accommodate. I hope sometime in the future they can change that . Instead of the olive oil tasting , I decided to have lunch outdoors. It was such a beautiful day and a tad windy . We started with some cocktails. Pomegranate Margarita : 5/5 it was the perfect blend of tangy , slightly sweet and the salt rim balanced all the flavors nicely. Also , it was pretty strong . Charcuterie $45 : Wow the presentation for this charcuterie was beautiful . Everything on the board was yummy and was a nice snack for grazing and enjoying it with the cocktail . I really liked the sweet walnuts , olives , wagyu sausage , pickled carrots , cauliflower , & the fig jam . 5/5 French onion soup $20 : I never really think to get a french onion soup but I was convinced that this was the best thing ever .. and guess what ?! It was !! This was probably the best french onion soup i've ever had . It was super rich , savory , and slightly sweet from the carmelized onions . It also had some delicious melted gruyère cheese that was oozing with the soup . The puff pastry on top was soo good . It was nice and comforting . 5/5 Prosciutto and Brie $30 : Dare I say this was probably one of the tastiest sandwiches ever ?! I can't believe prosciutto and brie can taste this good . The combination of garlic aioli , pickled shallots , red onions with farm greens mixed in the sandwich really brought out all the flavors. The only downside is for the portion idk if it justifies the price 4.5 /5 Ordered a special Pre fixe menu that came with farm salad with Quinoa + Olive oil icecream puff pastry dessert $30 + 10 salmon add on to salad . Salmon quinoa salad : This dish was super simple but the fish was cooked to perfection . It was super moist and the quinoa was fluffy and the salad was nicely dressed . 5/5 We had a great time and the food was fantastic. I'm really happy this place was dog friendly and family friendly. It's so hard finding places that accommodate both . Service was great . Luis did a good job on making sure we were taken care of . He was always checking in on us during our meal and was even whispering when the baby was napping . A+ service . Overall this place is a hidden gem . It's a tad pricey for lunch but the quality and service makes it worth it . We will definitely be back again to try the other delicious foods !

This bar is one of the best-kept secrets of the Fairfield/Suisun/Vacaville area; for better or for…read moreworse it is my duty as a frequent patron to let others know about it. The Marriott Bar/Lounge is located inside of the Marriott Hotel. I discovered it one evening while my husband was stuck at a function in said hotel. Rather than be social and mingle with the hotel crowd in one of the many reception rooms with a nametag slapped to my chest, I decided it would be better to go find the hotel bar. Boy, I'm glad that I did. Mark (the bartender at the Marriott) is a wonderful find. His rockabilly hairstyle and snappy black vest assured me right off the bat that it would be an evening of good conversation and good drinks, and I was not disappointed. Here's the great deal that will knock your socks off: on Tuesday nights there is a free appetizer bar (cheese/vegetables and the like) and free draft beer/select wine. Ideally one should purchase a cocktail for the sake of saying "thank-you" for the wonderful amenities; more importantly, one should order a cocktail for the simple pleasure of experiencing a Mark-crafted Manhattan. The bar itself has two flatscreen TVs; by default Mark usually will keep them trained on the sports world unless you make a request. As it stands the lounge area could stand to be opened up a bit more. The conference/dining area next to the bar is frequently empty, which makes the placement of the bar area feel rather arbitrary. The decor is, well, hotel-y. All the basics are behind the bar but do not go if you plan on ordering an esoteric bourbon. They do have Sierra Nevada on tap, which is nice, but other than that your beer choices are fairly limited if you're an avid microbrew fan. My suggestion: get a group of friends together, grab a table early on (especially on Tuesdays) or sit at the bar and let Mark work his magic. You will not be disappointed.
