    Quesadilla
    Tiff T.

    My friends and I went here for Hop Shots Mini Golf at the back of the property but we ate beforehand and the food was so good. I was really impressed. We ordered a salad, buffalo chicken and pesto pizzas, two burgers, wings, nachos, corn dogs, and a quesadilla. Even the reheated leftovers were good. Service was quick. We didn't order any beer but we had cocktails that were all delicious and strong. Trivia (Tuesday) upstairs was loud and spilled to the downstairs area. I know it's a bar but it was hard to each other talk. Parking isn't great around there but there are some lots around the corner. Otherwise, I would return.

    This was probably my 5th time at the Beer Garden on Glenwood. I love all of the outside seating and putt-putt in the back. I was looking to share a steak with my dog and know how dog friendly it is here. I ordered the steak medium but it really came out medium rare, I ate the outer edges and my dog had a feast! Probably won't be my go to spot for steak but the wings and shrimp are super solid. Service was a little slow but I wasn't in a rush so it was okay.

    Friendly staff and good ambience. Went on a Monday evening so it wasn't super busy. So many beer choices to choose from and the food was great. I love the honey butter the pretzel came with.

    I've walked past this place countless times and have never even considered it until this day when my coworkers wanted to meet up and grab a bite. I'm not a huge beer drinker but was still impressed at the plethora of options (International beer on the 2nd floor, Domestic Beer on the first floor, and a separate liquor bar on the first floor as well). So if you are looking for a LOT OF BEER OPTIONS, this is a good place to start/try. I tried a flight of ciders because that's as close to beer as I would typically get (I've attempted to try so many with beer fest but I just can't get into it) and I couldn't choose what I wanted so I had the wonderful bartender select them for me. She provided amazing, friendly service because as indecisive as I can be, she was very patient. For a meal, I order the Jalapeño burger and it was delicious. The jalapeño is basically the sauce that gives the kick you're looking for, not actual jalapeños, and it comes with plenty of fries. Again, I left not a single crumb lol This place is really cool inside and looks like something out of a fairytale with the trees growing through the restaurant. I love plants and nature so for me it was everything. I'd love to see it at night and check out how it's lit up, certain it looks beautiful!

    Really neat place with a lot of seating- indoor/outdoor seating with a TON of beers and ciders on tap. Each floor will have a different set of options so you have to walk up and down it to find the one you're looking for. Triple Jam is the best for me. I was a little surprised to find that one glass of Triple Jam was about $8- not great pricing in my opinion. The food is also pretty pricey but tasty. They ended up being out of multiple food items (one being all pizza) on a Saturday so not sure why but was disappointed. The cheesy fries with pork belly were AMAZING but still like $12 Parking is a huge hassle anywhere on Glenwood- we ubered to avoid the frustration, especially on a weekend They need to fix the outlet in the women's bathroom- water and electricity had me worried to ever use the hand dryer. Can't be safe. Overall a good visit occasionally but a pricey one for some beers but amazing options.

    If you love wings, the dry rub are the best I have ever had!!!! (The fries are very salty...so beware if you aren't a salt lover) I give this place a 5 star for the atmosphere, plethora of beer options, and a place to really chill with whoever you are with. The vines, trees and lushness that surrounds and is entwined throughout makes this place extra unique.

    We came for the drag brunch event, excited for a fun show and good food--but unfortunately, the experience was disappointing overall. The service and food were the biggest letdowns. Our original server was kind and attentive, and the drinks we did get were delicious. But right before the show started, she told us she had to go bartend downstairs and closed out our tab, saying another server would take over. No one ever did. We waited 45+ minutes for a pretzel and cheese fries, and I had to go downstairs just to get a status update on our food. When it finally arrived, the fries were not made according to the menu description--they were missing the pork belly and ranch, and were topped with thick, clumpy cheese sauce. I brought them to the bar, and the bartender said she'd have them fixed. What came back was cold pork belly bites on top, a little more of the same clumpy cheese, and still no ranch. No one checked on us for the rest of the brunch event, and we would've gladly ordered another round--but we were never given the opportunity. The drag performers themselves were fantastic--talented, vibrant, and so much fun to watch. The only downside was the layout, which split the audience into two disconnected sections. I'd love to see this event held in the courtyard next time so the queens can interact more easily with the whole crowd.

    How can you not get good vibes walking into a three story building with 400+ tap beers from local micro brews to world wide brewers! Brought some friends from out of Town who were impressed. We hit the local NC beer den on first floor. The bar tender was very helpful matching our preferred styles/taste with our three different desires. Look at my picture of only one wall of taps. We retired to back of facility where they have lots of seating, a couple more small bars, several cornhole boards, a miniture golf coarse, several television monitors. We had several beers and played a few matches of cornhole and called it an afternoon. We were lucky to be there in afternoon as there was no problem finding parking.

    No thanks! "Violations included a small live baby rodent observed in the kitchen and a live roach observed along the walls in the kitchen, a tomato slicer seen with food debris and rodent feces and cleaning needed of all shelving throughout the kitchen due to food debris and rodent feces."

    I was out and about hanging with hubby and his brother, one of our stops was Raleigh Beer Garden. We walked around back to check out their outdoor patio. It was a bit hot so we decided to sit inside. We looked over their extensive beer menu and I ordered a flight, my go-to. -Guava Guapo - really good IPA, slight guava flavor, on the tart/tangy side. -Caprese Pizza - Italian Pilsner. Kind of citrusy, light. -Boat Soda - key lime cream ale, my favorite of the bunch. Smooth, refreshing, great summer beer. -Southern Basil - farmhouse ale. My least favorite of the bunch. It was too bitter for my taste. I tried an amber that Hubby ordered, it was smooth, drinkable and very tasty. I would definitely return to Raleigh Beer Garden. The number of beer options was impressive, lots of different styles to choose from.

    I played miniature golf at RBG's new "Hot Shots" 18 hole miniature golf course out back last week. I had two buddies in town for a river rafting trip up in WV. We had a great time and had the RBG's delicious tavern burgers. I highly recommend this place. If you can't find a beer you like at the RBG, perhaps you just don't like beer. Try one of the ciders!

The first thing I…read morenoticed upon arriving was how dead it was, especially considering we went on a Friday night at 6:30PM. My boyfriend is a huge whiskey drinker and had been wanting to visit here for a while. He had heard that the best Old Fashioned were here (he said that it was not that great), and while they did have bougie cocktails, I settled for a margarita. Our server was very attentive and friendly. The atmosphere and decor were great! I am a plant person, so I loved seeing all of the plants. I love the open concept and exposed ceiling. But the food......was displeasing and unappetizing. I ordered the lamp burger, and while I ordered it as well done, I did not know that it would be presented overcooked with a charred outside. If you know lamb, this caused the meat to be extremely dry. The burger itself was very bland and lacked much flavor. My boyfriend ordered the Fireman's Chicken and by the looks of it when it came out, someone should have called the fire department while it was cooking! It was so burnt it was black. The only flavor present was charred meat and it was the most dried out chicken we have ever had (unfortunately I tried it). The collard greens were bitter with little flavor and the black-eyed peas still had crunch to where they weren't cooked all the way. To say all this, to have a $100 bill was HIGHLY unappreciated as it was one of the worst meals we have had in a LONG time. I definitely could see why they were not busy. The food was cooked terrible. And I will note that it isn't that I am picky, the couple next to us barely ate their meal and looked just as dissatisfied as we were. We would NOT recommend!

There's mood lighting and then there's "I can't see lighting" and it was definitely the latter, which I didn't care for. The food was absolutely amazing!!!! 10 out of 10, the staff was also incredible! Can't wait to come back for more! My favorite was the Pork & Chive Shumai (dumplings with caviar) it was my first time trying caviar and I loved it. I didn't like the seafood dumplings as much as I expected. They were really good. I just loved the pork ones more. The beef and crab rice was also EXCELLENT!!!! Well worth the price. Beautiful place.

The short rib was tender and flavorful, and sat on top of a biscuit (what's not to love here?!) - horseradish hollandaise was the perfect touch as the horseradish pairs nicely with the beef.

I do wish the melt would have had some kind of sauce or au jus element to it to give it some moisture because it was slightly on the dry side. The mac and cheese was unfortunately gritty, so I would skip that next time and try a different side. The drinks here are great. They had Mango Cart on tap which is one of my all time favorite beers. The cocktail selection is well priced, and I also got the gin fizz, which I loved. Not sure that Parkside will be a regular visit because the food was okay, but the vibes and drinks were great. Definitely worth a try if you've never been.
