This review is for take out. I wanted to try their poke nachos so decided to order that for an…read moreearly dinner. It was pretty packed when I walked in on a Saturday around 4pm given that World Cup was playing. I checked in with the hostess and was told to wait for someone to take my order. I wasn't sure why it had to be a specific person to place my order when there were 5 employees at the front. After I placed my order, I was told that my order would be ready in about 15 minutes. The poke was fresh and the unagi and mayo sauces that came on the side complimented the entire dish well. The wontons were also very crispy! Definitely on the pricier side given that the portion wasn't that big after paying more than $20. Would I order it again? Probably not but glad I still tried it nonetheless.

I am not a typical Yelp review person but this experience had to be shared…read more Met up with my sister for a late lunch/early dinner. We were doing happy hour to catch up, and planned to order my husband's dinner at the end. We entered and were immediately seated toward the back near the bar seating. After being seated, we were given menus and of course they. have the digital ordering system as well. The greeter didn't explain it, tell us we could start using it or anything. Odd. A few minutes later, we waited as no one came to speak to us, offer water, or anything. We ordered 2 items to start, then activated the "alert" on the digital ordering device (I hate these because no one pays attention to them except the kitchen staff). Within FIVE minutes one of our items arrived, which we found strange. Still no water, no greeting, nothing. We flagged down several employees to get our server, water, drink order and PLATES for the unusually fast item that had already arrived and was sitting there, cold and lonely. Still nothing. by the time the second item came, there was still no waitperson, so we couldn't order our drinks, AND the first item (I'm convinced it was a cancelled order by someone else so they gave it to us) was now ice cold, with rubbery chicken and wilted lettuce cups. We ended up walking out after 29 minutes of NOTHING. I cannot believe that we saw at least 2 dozen young people working, scurrying around, etc. and talked to several, only to get the reply, "I believe the manager is handling this". I won't ever go there again. I have gone since they opened, and this is really disappointing. By the time we left, happy hour everywhere else was over and the lines at all the Veranda restaurants were LONG, so we didn't get to have our fun girls' afternoon. ALSO: on a side note, when we were seated, there was a woman with 2 young kids being seated. She very clearly reminded the host that she had requested a booth. They sat her at a nearby booth and one of the kids started to pull coloring/craft/homework items from her backpack. The woman took the other child to the bathroom. At some point the girl at the booth got up to go as well. Her backpack was under the table and their jackets were on the table. A host brought 3 young guys and a kid to the booth and MOVED this lady's stuff and seated them! I knew she'd be upset, so we waited. She came out with the kids and was mad. She told the people sitting there that this was her table and they basically looked at her like she was an old crazy lady. She told the staff and they pretty much did NOTHING. She stormed out and we did not see her again. I was very disappointed to see her treated this way, and surprise - she was a person of color, treated like she was not a valued customer. Ugh. What is going on here???

It was so nice to sit on their beautiful patio and enjoy a beer while finishing some work for the day. 2. They made a gift card donation to California Bully Rescue that I had reached out to them as a request for an auction. Most establishments ignored my outreach and I was really grateful for their contribution and acknowledgement. We will definitely be back.

This seemed like a spot where parents take their kids and don't attend to them very well. But I can't blame the establishment for that, I was more annoyed at my date for picking this spot.

We originally discovered Hop Grenade when we moved to the neighborhood. As craft beer lovers,…read morefinding a spot within walking distance felt like hitting the jackpot. What started as a convenient local hangout has become one of our favorite places over the last three years. Hop Grenade has truly become a second home. The staff are always welcoming, friendly, and genuinely care about their customers. We love seeing familiar faces and catching up with the regulars. It has such a great community feel that can be hard to find these days. The beer selection is hands down one of the best around, and the prices are hard to beat. I also love that they've expanded their offerings to include wine and wine-based cocktails, which means there's something for everyone. The food is great too! We always look forward to Wing Wednesday, and the flatbreads are one of our go-to orders. One of our favorite things about Hop Grenade is bringing friends and family here when they're visiting from out of town. We recently took some wedding guests to the Thursday night music and market event, and they absolutely loved it. One of them even joked that he was ready to move here after experiencing the atmosphere. That's the kind of place Hop Grenade is...it makes people feel welcome and part of the community right away. Because Hop Grenade has been such a big part of our lives, booking the Tap Bus for our wedding was a no-brainer. It felt special to incorporate something so personal to us into our big day. For those who don't know, Hop Grenade has an awesome vintage VW bus outfitted with taps. Not only did it make for a unique and fun focal point at our wedding, but it also served some of the best beer, cider, seltzer, and wine our guests could ask for. We received so many compliments throughout the night about both the Tap Bus and the drink selection. Justin and his team were fantastic to work with from start to finish and helped make our wedding even more memorable. Whether you're stopping by for a drink, grabbing some food, attending one of their community events, or looking for a unique beverage service for an event, Hop Grenade delivers every time. We're lucky to have them in our community and can't recommend them enough.

I'm afraid of sharing their specials that the place will start getting so packed where we can't get a table anymore lol but here it goes. I have came to the Hop Grenade for years and they have never disappointed. Their beers are delicious and always have a great menu to choose from. They have clean accessible bathrooms and parking is hit and miss since it is in the middle of downtown. They do allow dogs but only outside not inside. So they have their wing special on Wednesday's which is the big secret I didn't want to share. One because their wings are the best wings I've ever had. On top of that their flatbread pizza is amazing as well. Like they make their own dough or something. But this is the brewery to hit up if you want some delicious food and great beer. Put it this way, for me the wings and pizza are that good where I order take out lol. Oh ya and their service is top notch.

I wanted to get some radishes, lime and jalapeños so I asked for two small snack bags. The woman at the register told me she could only give me one. I said I don't want the jalapeños in the bag with the radishes & lines. She said the owner said they are only allowed to give one snack bag per customer. I told her I bought food for 5 people and she said that is the rule she has to follow so she can't give me another bag. I spent over $50 so I don't understand why I couldn't get a few jalapeños. She was also very rude. Even though they wouldn't give me anything to put the jalapeños in I said thank you all, before leaving, to all three of the workers and they just looked at me with discussed and said nothing. I was very polite as I always am at any restaurant or establishment I enter but was treated poorly. I really don't write reviews but these lady's made me feel awful. The food is good and I with many of my coworkers, who work at Contra Costa County Public Health, have eaten here. Those of us who are African American have shared stories of poor treatment. I think enough is enough for me. I won't suggest we have lunch here anymore. It doesn't feel good spending money at a place that isn't welcoming. They never even give a smile to us when we come in no matter how much I smile. Even though I won't be back I hope the owner can make sure black people feel welcome here even if they aren't happy to see us.
