What People Are Saying About Gordon Biersch Brewery Rstrnt

In Short – Airy, industrial decor lends a lighter, more urban feel to Gordon Biersch than most beer halls. The bar may get crowded after 5pm, when a happy-hour crowd hoists a few pints of seasonal Bavarian-influenced beers. A menu of fusion and New American dishes include beer-friendly offerings like shrimp and chicken pot stickers, Moroccan-spiced lamb chops and the signature garlic french fries.

Great Beer, good Fries
by bigrob40 at Citysearch
This place has pretty good brews and you should check out the featured brew. If you go here you should at least have the famous garlic fries, and have some of the beer. The service is usually pretty good, and the inside gets a bit loud so be prepared for that. The patio is significantly quieter and you can see local summer events sometimes. I have eaten there many times and I have had consistently good experiences. Oh, the only gripe I have is the bathroom is not in the venue, but outside and leaves much to be desired.
- Pros: Beer, Fries, Burgers are good too!
- Cons: It gets loud inside. Thats it!

Trashy staff people, decent food
by ahlemon at Citysearch
We came here for a group lunch, and I was astounded at how trashy the servers looked! Perhaps it was just the lunch shift, but I am put off when the wait staff have greasy hair, numerous piercings, and all look like high school dropouts. The food was okay, good selection of items. One person got their fish (mahi mahi?) burger, and it looked delicious. My pasta was not very good, I would not recommend it. I was looking forward to going here as I love beer and was considering coming back for a happy hour, but I would not return here again.
- Cons: trashy wait staff, bad food
