Terrible management by whoever is running this establishment. Bartenders got upset with me because I asked for a receipt, drugs were being done in the restrooms holding up lines, bouncers were very confrontational and yelling at another customer after they spilled a drink on him just an absolute disaster of a night! Really bad vibes here everybody was seriously rude to everyone that came in with us. I don’t recommend this place especially after 9pm. Do not waste your money here

I really wanted this place to be amazing, it just wasn’t. The menu is awesome looking imo, but the only thing we ordered that lived up was the Nachos. Here is what we got:
Nachos – These were great actually, huge platter of em, great chips
Chips & Queso – These were good, but we really didn’t need them since we had the Nachos lol
Rebel Burger – My daughter said it had a “funny taste” and she’s not very picky about her burgers, so that’s not good. She did love the fries though.
Doritos Fried Chicken – First issue with this was that they didn’t have the Mashed potatoes that come with it, except they didn’t tell us that until all of the food was coming out, so my wife got fries rather than wait additional time for Mashed Potatoes. Then when she got it, she was super underwhelmed. Dry & overfried chicken, no real Dorito taste, and overcooked Brusselsprouts
Spicy Cheeto Fried Chicken Sandwich – This was OK, it wasn’t spicy and it was dry/overfried but since it was covered in slaw you couldn’t tell. So meh.
The waiter was really nice, but unfortunately, there seemed to be just him and the cook, so the service was way slower than I would have expected which was of course not ideal either 🙁 With the choices in the immediate area here, I doubt I’ll be back.

What a team Gianni and Dina make! I hosted my husbands 40th bday party at Rebel this weekend( it was a private party for 3 hours) and it couldn’t have gone better. I emailed them to inquire about their services and received an email back within a couple days. They were always available when I had questions and always found a way to make whatever I needed happen. Not only did I get to reserve the entire bar for a few hours they also let me come the same morning and decorate. Dina literally helped me for an hour hanging decorations! Cannot say ENOUGH GOOD THINGS! They made finger foods for my guest which were all delicious! Sliders, steak skewers, coconut shrimp, chicken tacos, and a beautiful fruit platter. If you are thinking of having a party, I HIGHLY recommend Rebel! All my friends had an amazing time and I couldn’t thank them enough for such a successful event! Great service, reasonable prices, and awesome vibe it was a win win all around!

My inaugural visit to Rebel Kitchen & Libations was an exemplary experience which indubitably warrants a return visit! Sunday Brunch selection and fare were exceptional! My dining companion opted for a mimosa whereas I decided upon the mango margarita…..both were excellently concocted. We each had an omelette whereupon we sought accommodations which were effortlessly granted. While the culinary fare in and of itself was exceptional (thanks to Chef Phil), the customer service orientation as dispensed by Kellyann was the other half of our superlative dining experience! Looking forward to returning to sample the other menu items!! Patronize this establishment….you will NOT be disappointed on any level given the management of Gianni!

Great spot for a fun night out in Livermore! The vibe is lively, the lighting gives the place a cool, energetic feel, and the music keeps the crowd moving. Perfect for meeting up with friends or just enjoying the local nightlife. Drinks were solid and staff was friendly. Definitely coming back!

Went here for brunch last week for their “ultimate bloody mary” and it was so good. Its like a whole meal (slider, wing, shrimp, bacon, blue cheese olive) for only $15. The servers are super cool too, such a great vibe!! Will definitely be returning here in the future.

Taco Tuesday at Rebel Kitchen & Libations was fabulous tonight! After a not so great 3rd experience about a month ago, we’d decided against. However, record breaking heat sent us out & we decided to try again. We were disappointed to not have the mojito that my bf was craving as they were out of mint, however super friendly & helpful Vinny hooked us up with a magical gin, lime, sage concoction that I will try again. While the tacos (must order 3 of one kind at a time – we ended up with 6 fish & 3 pulled pork) took longer to come out this time, they were worth the wait when they arrived hot & freshly made. We’ll be back!
