This place has everything from hard-core punk music to alternative and even EDM DJ sets on their amazing stage. Placerville is privileged to have this modern venue in place now. Food: healthy eaters and particularly plant-based consumers such as level-5 vegans and non-commital vegetarians will be accommodated here. I had a burrito that was stunningly delicious. i went all Danny Devito/Get Shorty and ordered some shit that is not even on the menu!. See, what had happen is dat they took the green goddess burrito and they put the breaded zucchini fries inside the burrito! This had had the effect of making Damn near the best veggie wrap I have ever had had!!!!!!!!! in addition, the bartender trotted out this habanero hot sauce that is in the photo. She was so friendly and accommodating, I decided to had two gin martinis while I was there! I myself was delighted just watching her to do her magic behind the bar. So friendly and that was just what I needed after spending all day working with artificial intelligence. But this was no artificial intelligent! she had helped me brainstorm what could be made vegan on the menu. Zucchini sticks in da wrap naturally!! Did i mention dat? Oh yeah, for you EV driving greenhouse huggers out there you are in luck: There are 3 level 3 chargers at Bank of America just walking distance. I recommend if you have an electric vehicle that you park there, plug into the electrify America juice, and come over here for a drink at the very least You now has the information you need Now git it!!

    July 30, 2026 the spouse and I went to an estate sale in Pollock Pines today and came down into…read morePlacerville for lunch before heading home. We were headed to a place I was familiar with and while going down Main Street saw Burning Barrel. I quickly hoped on their website and rattled off a few items and we pulled into the closest parking lot and made our way over. The restaurant was empty of guests and the young man at the counter was welcoming, asking if this was our first visit, and showed us the food and drink menu and the board of current craft beers. I chose the Longhorn (tri tip) sandwich and fries and a Lillikoi Mai Tai, and the spouse chose the Pastrami Sandwich and a beer called Dank. They do not do table service so after ordering we grabbed a seat. This is a pretty large open space with an outdoor patio, several roll up doors and misters at the outside. Shortly after sitting down a server came over with our meals. I started with a french fry, and I have to say these are the best french fries I have ever had, in my life time. I don't know if its the way they cut the fries, the way they are seasoned, what they are fried in or all of the above, but they were delicious! Our sandwiches were outstanding! Both were incredibly flavorful and filling, and even after I was full I continued eating because everything tasted SO GOOD. The drinks were excellent too, so good that we ordered a second round. The young man at the counter also made my mai tai and did an excellent job. About halfway into our meal other guests started to arrive and by the time we left there were at least 4-5 parties of guests in the restaurant. I will absolutely return, and highly recommend Burning Barrel. I was also pleased to see that they have a Rancho Cordova location, which is a little closer to my home in the Valley. Thank you Burning Barrel for the excellent food, drinks and customer service! You made our great day even better!

    To start off, the nectars are very good. When they do make it, the dark blue milk is EXCELLENT. The…read moreother beers are decent. As for food: the fries are cooked perfectly, and the pretzel, is a good pretzel. The cheese sauce is trash. It is so bland and even grainy, there was no point consuming it. The mustard was much better. Now the important part for safety: All the napkins and utensils are inside. They bring the food to your table but you are expected to get those other things. I was here alone and did not plan ahead. I did not feel safe leaving my drink and food alone outside, so I could go inside to get a napkin. So I will probably try this place again but there are some issues.

    Basic solid dining choice on downtown Main Street I. Placerville. They serve American pub food…read more Has over 20 taps. Family friendly. They even have a kids menu (kids 10 and under). Plus they have an outdoor patio. My favorite menu items are the salads and burgers. The salad options are not boring. Fresh and flavorful. Burgers are fat and juicy. My fave go to is the steak & arugula salad. But on my last visit I tried their chicken wings and sushi. Yup, I know that's an odd pairing. But that's what I wanted. Then you're probably wondering... say what, sushi at a tap house?! Well the addition of sushi is new. The menu had lots of different kinds of rolls and sashimi cuts. I went for it and ordered the Wave Rider roll. The roll was delicious and substantial size. Great flavors. Beautiful plated presentation. I luved the little flower that was on the plate. The roll rivals that of local sushi places.

It was a good size, came on a nice fluffy bun, and tasted great. It cost $17.50 before tax and tip and came with a healthy serving of fries. They brought me ranch without charging me extra, which I really appreciate. I sat at the bar and the bartender Victor did a great job. He was attentive and hard working. The restaurant is spacious inside, and has comfortable seating at the bar. Overall five stars.
