    [[HIGHLIGHT]]The most family friendly brewery in OC.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The staff is amazing, the beer is amazing, the food trucks are delicious. How anyone could say otherwise is absurd! Been bringing my family here once a week (or more) for 5 years. This is home away from home!

    Parking is very limited, it's located in a neighborhood that has multiple auto repair shops, you have to park along the sidewalk or across the street. Awesome brewery with lots of outdoor seating, great price on beers and they were good tasting as well! They only have two TVs showing sports, so not really a great place to catch a game, but a couple of TVs are available. Food could be limited, they ran out of barbecue and food by 6pm on a Saturday. Settled for some pulled pork nachos, which was pretty decent. Overall, had a great time here!

    Good beer and great food trucks. Loved the Czech Pilsner! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Service was great with a chill environment on a Sunday evening.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I can see parking being rough on crowded nights due to location, but we had no issue. Brats were great! I got the spicy, so good!

    Purple Tears, a Belgian Golden Strong Ale was my favorite and I ended up ordering it more than once.

My only complaint is parking, but I'm lucky enough to have gotten a slot just before giving up. Fantastical Funghi: It's one of those rare moments where you get a pizza that maintains its quality from the first bite to the drive home and the reheating process. My main complaint when eating truffle or heavy mushroom-related food is that the truffle essence rarely lasts longer than the first 2-3 bites. Such a concern is not an issue for this pizza, as I've had this pizza more than once, and the taste generally stays the same regardless of how you eat it. My favorite is the ricotta cheese, you could really feel the difference that it makes every time you get a bite with it. Kokomocha: You love mocha, but you can't find a Porter/Stout that suits your taste. Look no further. I would say the taste ratio is 30% alcohol and 70% mocha. Enough alcohol to know that it will hit down the line, but more than enough mocha to enjoy it as its own. Ambiance: Beautiful. I would love to have lunch here on the weekend. The bar is a good vibe, and the restaurant itself is generally inviting. Warning about the parking, as it's hard to find parking. Service: Good. The staff are nice, and things arrive within a reasonable time.

I tried a sample of their only brown. It was OK but a little too bitter for me. I ended up getting a red ale which was very pleasant and had little aftertaste. Apparently, these guys also own the pizza shop next door (southside). You can order from them directly if you want and can bring it in. But Riip also has their own limited menu. We were shown there current special which consisted and tried a couple...sorry, don't recall which ones but do remember they were pretty good. There's both inside and outside seating. Overall, nice place. You're in the beach area. So expect parking to a little bit of a challenge sometimes. We got lucky and found a spot in the lot.

My kids immediately want to play on the outdoor climbing structure, so while my husband took them to play I checked in. Our tables were ready. We were given 2 long tables that were back to back. I probably would've preferred they be together but no biggie. I LOVE that Golden Road will do individual checks for however many people in your group! Makes it so easy to meet up with other people! Thank you!!! I was disappointed in the brunch menu. There were only 2 choices, a breakfast bagel sandwich or chilaquiles and no kids breakfast. My husband and I split the breakfast bagel sandwich and it was amazing and huge! It also came with a side of tater tots. The regular menu is available to our kids split the sliders. Mimosas come prepared, meaning you don't get to poor your own OJ into your champagne, they do it for you, so it's more on the OJ side. No Bloody Marys. We brought balloons in, no problem and they kept our cake in the refrigerator. Our server kindly placed the candles and lit them for us. We had a small view of the harbor, our server was attentive and overall we had a great brunch and would return, but probably for lunch or afternoon, not brunch unless they expand their menu.

    Such a win to have Golden Road so close to home…read more This Orange County brewery has an unbeatable location in the Sunset Beach harbor. Their space overlooks the busy marina, making it a can't miss spot on your weekend itinerary. We stopped by for a beer on a Sunday after an afternoon of errands in the heat. While I've tasted a number of Golden Road's signature brews, this was my first time dining at their sunset location. Our group ordered a bit of everything and shared. My pick was their deep fried avocado tacos. Despite being fried, these tacos felt light and delicious. The breading was a fine layer, adding a little bit of crunch to this entree. Despite being close to the beach, this shopping center is also loaded with a plethora of parking spots. A true beach side gem.

It has plenty of indoor seating, with even more picnic table/bench style seating outside. I love coming here in the summer when the sun is setting and the warm air starts to settle, peak experience. The service is fast and friendly, whether you're going togo or dining in, they are always great. Whenever I have questions regarding the beer selection, they always have an answer waiting. Speaking of beers, they have plenty of house made brews as well as some local and unique offerings. I tend to gravitate to seltzers or lighter beers and they plenty of choices for me to grab. I love the Lavy Lemonade, Flying South, Like Super Profound, and the New Adventures: Nitro. Their menu does change so please make sure to check what they have avoided when you go. The Like Super Profound was a Japanese beer, light but great taste, and the Nitro was smooth. I don't doubt anything on their menu currently is not worth trying while you're there. The food is also great, the pretzel, and wings hit the spot for me and my girlfriend as an appetizer for a movie while we sat and drank waiting for the start time. The chicken sandwich was hot and crispy, on the smaller side but good nonetheless. The tots, regular or loaded are just chefs kiss, always crispy, must order if you are there.

    This place holds a special place in my heart in that I look forward to the food more than the beers…read morehaha. Not say the beer is bad, their selection is pretty solid actually. It's just their food is that great. However, to be honest, the only food items I've had are the classic double smash burger and tater tots (plain or cheeky style). I'm normally one to try everything on the menu, but this burger was just one of those items where I'd be incredibly disappointed if those other items could not contend with the burger. Now beyond the food and drinks, the service is pretty efficient and the staff is welcoming. Combined with a large outdoor space and cozy indoor space, this place has always been cheeky go to after work. PSA...Forgot to mention, the only bad thing I can consider is that parking can be pretty hard to find especially during busy hours.
