The food here is a step above what you would expect for a brewery. Really good nachos, burgers, and…read moretheir Southwest chicken wrap that's a special right now is amazing. Service can be a hit or miss. It seems like they are often confused about whose table is whose or that there isn't really assigned sections for servers which means sometimes it takes forever to get our orders in. Luckily on our last visit our server Mike was extremely attentive. They have a newly redone kids area which is nice for families. They play sound on the TVs for the World Cup. Definitely super super busy when there's an angel game - avoid if you're not attending because they charge to park in their parking lot and it's impossible to find street parking on those days

Holy moly this place is rad! I have tried beers/seltzers from here but have never gotten to come to…read morethe brewery itself. They have a huge location with a large parking lot, however note that this does fill up. Especially during weekends, big games, etc. We came on a Sunday during a game AND movie night, but were able to secure a place to park with some patience. Again, the place is huge. They had two bars open AND a booth outside selling canned drinks. There is lots of seating inside and outside. It was honestly hard for me to wrap my head around the size of the place! I also liked that they had multiple restrooms around the building. They have a very impressive beer and seltzer collection. You can get various sizes or a whole pitcher for the table. You do order food outside separately at the X Eats area. This is a food truck setup, but they did have an impressive amount of options. Food took a little while (understandable given the volume of people there), but it came out hot and fresh. The pizza had a nice flavor that featured jalapeño and pineapple. They also had a featured dessert that was a banana egg roll with ice cream and a wonderful ube syrup. Overall, I had a great time and would love to come back again!

Brewery X tonight was a let down tonight. Waited in line for hours to be told "they are at full…read morecapacity" when there were multiple people leaving the venue. While there were confirmed empty tables and seating area all over. While we were peaceful waiting in line "security guards" were rude and disrespectful. They constantly allowed people they knew into the brewery while we waited in line. If you are not allowing people due to "max capacity" then don't let anybody in! I will say the black skinny security guard was the only one that was respectful and spoke to us about what was going on.

The food here was so good and fresh. We had ordered a burger, a vegan burger, a Caesar salad and…read moreParmesan fries. Unfortunately, I did not get any pictures. I was expecting a long wait but you give your name to the host at the bottom of the stairs and then you go up. There were three of us and we were sat right away. You scan a QR code at the table, order and pay that way and then someone brings your stuff out. The staff was very quick with our order and then you just get up and go when you're done. I think this is a great system for such a busy location. The restaurant itself was really pretty and cute vibe. I would go back.

We were originally going to go to Black Tap because I wanted a burger but I wasn't willing to wait…read morein the super long line. Next door, at Ballast Point, the line was a little more manageable to wait and they have an exclusive menu for Magic Key Holders which I thought was really cool. We got the mussels and rockfish ceviche that was on the Magic Key Holder Exclusive Menu. Very underwhelming and disappointing - no flavor and very liquidy. Hard no all day long. I only took a bite or two and that was enough for me. BP Burger was mid. Average at best. I definitely had second thoughts about not waiting in line at Black Tap. I would have much preferred to eat there, but I'm glad I tried this place because I don't have to wonder if it's good or not. I know the answer now. The fries were the highlight for me. It was busy, but it was also a Saturday. There are definitely better choices in the area that I'd rather eat at. Food was eh. Service was eh.

I'm a sucker for a great beer flight, and I was super impressed by Bottle Logic. We ended up…read moreordering a few rounds of flights to share. The beer selection is pretty large and delicious. One of the beers we got is the Tropical Hideaway, which really reminds me of the pineapple Dole whip at Disneyland. It's a smoothie-style beer with lots of tropical flavor. Tons of tables outside to hang out, and when we went there was a food truck with great smash burgers outside. And the bartenders are super knowledgeable about the beer -- we got some great recs. Lastly, they sell canned beer to take home. I got the She Shot First IPA (which has a very Rosie the Riveter meets Star Wars vibe), and it was phenomenal. Definitely a great place to spend a Friday night!

The beer and seltzers here are very good, most of the ones I tried were very good! Though from the…read moremoment we entered we did not feel very welcome by the staff and that is why I'm rating 2 stars because service is a big part of the experience. My favorite was "From the Deep". The Rocket pop frozen seltzer was too sweet to enjoy. The "Garden Studies" seltzer was very good due to the lychee and other flavors but also a bit too sweet. My dad really enjoyed all the IPAs, this was his Father's Day gift. But the bartender did not greet us at all when we walked in, he was not friendly at all in my opinion.Though he did answer most questions I had about the beers and seltzers because he seemed pretty knowledgeable, but not happy to answer my questions. Had to go back 3-4 times to ask if the frozen seltzer was finally ready. Then when I went back in to ask for samples, I asked how many I'm able to try and the bartender said "you've already had a lot so not many more" so I only asked for 2 though I wanted to try 1 more. But I didn't feel welcome and comfortable enough to ask. I'll definitely just get my beer to go next time. Beer and seltzer quality is great though!!!

We visited Pfeiffer last week. It's very comfortable. The service is great. The beer is great --…read morethey just won 3 gold medals in the recent San Diego County Craft Brewing Competition, not bad for a newer brewery (they told us that the brewery has been around for 2 1/2 years). We tried Good On Ya, an IPA that is excellent, and brought home a 4-pack of the gold medal winning Likewise, which we will likely try tonight when our son stops by. One of the patrons chatted with us and made sure that I tasted a A Cloak for Every Occasion, an outstanding imperial stout (thanks for the surprise, Darren!). If Darren is representative of the regulars, this is a great place to hang out.

We were craving to come here and enjoy their beers and food. We had no idea that the Monster truck…read moreevent was taking place. They were charging for parking so we paid $30 plus processing fee. Kevin the manager couldn't care less that we were here as customers not for the monster truck thing so they didn't give us a table and we had to sit at the bar. He initially said that there was a 30 min wait even though we could see empty tales. We had already paid so we had to stay to get the $30 discount on your bill when spending $30. He was not willing to refund since they were not technically the ones charging you. Once we sat at the bar, the bartender was nice and made us feel comfortable so we could enjoy our night. The place was crowded with families with kids, adults just overindulging and being very loud. The moment the event started time got closer, all of this crowd started leaving which allowed us to really enjoy our night. The food was great as always. The poke nachos are really tasty with a good balance of fish and nachos. The fish and chips is one of our go to dishes they are always perfectly cooked. We have noticed that shrinkflation has happened throughout the years, but after enjoying a few beers you don't notice anymore. This was the first time trying their burger and it was amazing! The patty was perfectly cooked and the flavors just worked together. We also decided to give the beeramisu a second try and we enjoyed it. It is a creative and unique twist to your traditional tiramisu. Since it had been a while, we didn't even know that they have a club now. We gladly join and got the poke nachos as a welcome gift. Overall the experience started on a bad note but we left happy after good food, service and drinks. Also, Kevin came by after the mess to check on us and apologize for the inconvenience. Make sure you check the angel stadium for event before you come, they will be busy.

We had the unfortunate experience of unknowingly going to Karl Strauss right before a Dodgers @…read moreAngels game, and WOW was the restaurant packed. The wait was projected to be an HOUR! But we got a super nice host who noticed our mistake and kindly sat us down right away. We appreciated the customer service. We ordered the brussel sprouts (3 out of 5) and the carne asada fries (4 out of 5). Both were large portions, enough for two people to share as an appetizer. I especially enjoyed the green cilantro sauce on the carne asada fries! I love that this location lets you do a beer flight with as few as 2 beers. Some of my favorite beers I tried in my flight were the Golden Stout, Wreck Alley (a stout), and Boat Shoes (a tropical IPA). One thing that shocked me about the restaurant setup was the lack of TVs. It has a sports vibe, especially with Angel Stadium right across the street, but the only TV I could see from where I was sitting was super far away. So come for great beer flights and fun apps, but not to hang out and watch sports.

We arrived at opening and were their first few customers for the day. My cousins have been here before and love their extensive selection of stouts. I went with a flight to get a feel of their menu - stand outs for me were the viejo and son of nectron. There was ample seating inside and out. They offer a different food option each day. There was a pizza truck when we went, but by the time they set up it was time for us to head to our next stop.
