Can’t recommend this place enough. From being greeted by the hostess to being seated. Our service was amazing and attentive. There are plenty of beer choices. As you will see in the pictures from a dark brown to a hef.
The wings are smoked with a dry rub. I can’t explain the flavor except unique. The wings were huge.
The pan pizza had a baked crisped top and was combined with a pan style

The staff was very friendly and the food came out in a very timely manner. We shared the pretzels for appetizer, and for the skirt steak sandwich and fish and chips. The skirt steak was the star of the show it was spicy yet super flavorful! The fish and chips had a beer batter it was very good. The fries addicting crunchy. We had so much fun and enjoyed all the food! Would recommend

the presentation was not the best. Whatever cilantro and onion you see on the plate was all that was available to use as toppings for the tacos, we had to ask for more on the side. They were honestly pretty small for the price, if i knew i’d go to a taco truck at that point. The first taco i opened was full of fat and little to no meat. Service wise it was okay but not the best, the waitress just took our order and didn’t return once to see if we needed anything else, we had to stop her as she was stopping by at the table next to us to ask for the tab. The salsa was also just Tapatío and lime. Not an actual salsa.

This is the third time I’ve experienced the similar issue here, and it’s extremely disappointing. The hostess seating process is confusing and feels poorly managed. On this visit, I had a small puppy with me and requested to sit at the front outdoor seating area. There were clearly available and already-cleaned tables, which I had seen myself before entering.
Despite this, I was repeatedly told to sit in the back. When I said I preferred the front, I was then told the front tables needed to be cleaned—even though they were already clean. I waited over 15 minutes with no resolution and eventually walked out.
When I spoke with the manager, Andrew, he explained that the hostess didn’t want to overwhelm the server. That explanation doesn’t make sense and contradicts what I was initially told. If that was the real reason, it should have been communicated honestly from the start. Being given conflicting explanations feels misleading and unprofessional.
This has now happened to me three times. As a local customer, this treatment is frustrating and unacceptable. It raises serious concerns about fairness and professionalism, and unfortunately feels borderline discriminatory.
I hope management addresses this issue, because no customer should feel dismissed or treated differently without explanation let alone feels being discriminated.

Lively atmosphere. Waitress smiling and helpful. I was not real hungry on arrival so I ordered “off” menu. She assisted in ordering a chicken with mixed veggies. It was a perfect meal. He ordered the chicken wings, spicy but tasty. Highly recommend for a beverage and/ or bite to eat.

Delicious beer and food as always, Alvarado Street Brewery is a must for those visiting Monterey!
There may be a wait time during busy hours, so plan accordingly.

Great selection of beer and food. Lots of seating even during busy times! Amazing deals such as on Burger Monday and Wing Wednesday (check out the photos). Service is okay because it’s always busy and seems to have inadequate amount of servers. I haven’t tried their pizzas yet, but I definitely need to try them, it looks really good.

Brittany is a gem. Knows the menus, wants guests to feel comfortable. Very helpful, very welcoming. While training a new human who was also very lovely and immediately offered to help accommodate my suitcases fresh from the airport. Lovely welcome to town, thank you! The beer is also delicious, and the food, but service today won out.

Skip this restaurant all together if you have a kid with you. I am beyond disappointed with the way we were treated at this restaurant. The hostess immediately told us we could not bring in a stroller for our newborn, even though there were clearly other guests with strollers inside. She made a weak excuse that theirs were “tucked away,” yet made zero effort to help us find a reasonable solution. Instead, she tried to seat us at a table right next to the front door, basically in the lobby, with a random worker’s jacket hanging there — an obviously undesirable and poorly managed spot. This was a high table and we had a stroller so clearly missing commonsense. Meanwhile, multiple two-person tables were completely empty just a few steps inside, and the restaurant was not even busy. We offered to sit right at the end so that would not bother any incoming people or the staff with the stroller. To make matters worse, she actually asked if our newborn could “sit in a chair,” which was both inappropriate and shockingly clueless. There was no attempt to accommodate us, no empathy, and no basic customer service. It felt like we were being profiled simply for having a baby. If this restaurant does not want to serve families with infants, they should clearly post that policy instead of treating paying customers like an inconvenience. Management seriously needs to train their staff better, because this level of incompetence at the front door sets the tone for the entire experience.
