I had my 31st birthday party here. Bottle Server Girl Victoria helped me through the process and made it so smooth. Thank you so much for the fun night. I had too much fun!

We frequently visit this spot to watch Niners and Warriors games. They offer breakfast and lunch. The bartenders and servers are enjoyable. There are many TVs and a large screen.

I visited Bar West recently and had an overall great experience! We arrived around 1:30 PM, just in time for their bottomless mimosas deal for $14 until 2 PM--a fantastic bargain. After about three mimosas, I was feeling a little tipsy, so they definitely get the job done! Later, I ordered a few mixed drinks and shots, which were equally enjoyable and well-made. For food, I tried the chicken tenders and nachos. The chicken tenders were perfectly cooked--crispy on the outside and tender inside--and came with a side of fries. My friend had the chicken club sandwich and thought it was delicious. However, the nachos were a mixed bag. Two of my friends ordered them and were surprised by the portion size, which is big enough to share. While the flavors were good, the toppings felt haphazardly thrown on top, with not enough cheese evenly distributed. They had to request extra cheese, and for an additional $4 the meat was a bit cold and chewy. It would've been better if the nachos were better presented or if some of the toppings were served on the side. Though I did not get to try their entire brunch menu. I would like to come back and give that a go! Another friend ordered sliders, but unfortunately, they didn't come with fries. When they ordered fries separately, the serving size was very generous--easily sharable. Unfortunately I didn't get to snap a photo of every dish but will try to get some more in next time. We visited on a game day, and the atmosphere was lively but not too crowded until about 3:30 PM. they have tv's everywhere so you're not missing out on anything! I also learned that the venue turns into a nightclub later in the evening, which I didn't get to experience yet. The service was excellent, with attentive staff checking in regularly. While the food was enjoyable but not amazing (I'd rate it 3/5), the overall experience--thanks to the drinks, service, and ambiance--deserves a solid 4/5 stars. I had a fun time and I would definitely return!

We stopped by here to use a Groupon offer and we loved it! The place is a dream location to watch sports and have a drink. TV's everywhere, playing multiple games from different sports. The craft burgers were huge and absolutely delicious. Fries were nice and crisp. The waitress/bartender was a sweetheart. She was patiently explained how to use the Groupon and did an excellent job with drink recommendations. We went as a family in the early evening but looks like a great place to hang out with friends for drinks!

DJ Ray dropped every slapper like he knew my trap queen soul personally. He got 15 Loraxes to stay on the dance floor ALL NIGHT. The bottle servers were absolute baddies, giving the place all the extra sparkle. Shout-out to Maxx Steele--come through and be a 304 for a block party here, we need your energy! Already planning my next visit in a cuter outfit, because Barwest really does not play.

Friendly staff, food and drinks were great. Lots of TVs on with different sports. Highly recommend.

My go to is the chicken strips they are fire! Service is fast and the bar tenders are super chill!

Hi, I wanted to share some feedback about my recent visit during happy hour. I came in around 3 PM and ordered a fishbowl drink and fries, and my bill came out to $53.95. The biggest concern was the drink -- it was extremely watered down and tasted like juice with barely any alcohol. I've visited before and had a much better experience, so this was disappointing and didn't feel worth the price at all. I'm not a heavy drinker, so for me to notice how weak it was is a concern. I'm sharing this because I hope consistency can be improved, especially during happy hour. Right now, based on this visit, I wouldn't return, which is unfortunate given my past experience. Thank you for your time.

Always a good time at Barwest. It's a great downtown spot to watch sports and meet up with friends for drinks and food. The servers aren't just there for their looks, they actually care about service and do a damn good job at it. The wings here are really good. I plan on trying their lemon pepper next time I'm here. The buffalo flavored wings were top notch and chicken had a great crisp to it. The fries were perfect and I'd go back just for those. Plenty of beers on tap as well as TV's to watch any sport. Location is king and this spot has an awesome one. Keep up the great work Barwest!

It sets the perfect vibe, whether you are starting your night out or looking for an late night bite. The team actually takes the time to listen to exactly what you want and executes your order to absolute perfection. This is a place that genuinely cares about you enjoying the entirety of your experience rather than just settling for something mediocre for you to pay for. A huge thank you to Al & Tony for providing such fantastic service. We will absolutely be back because of them! Next time we come in, I will make sure to take pictures of the food, but when I tell you we devoured it, I mean it. The smash burgers and buffalo wings are so bomb! Plus buy one burger get one burger 50% off on Tuesdays. With karaoke, live DJs, and an awesome happy hour, you honestly cannot go wrong here. Thank you again to Al and Tony; you both are the main reason we will be returning and recommending this spot to all our friends and coworkers!

I opted for a chicken sandwich with as side of buffalo fries and my sister opted for a burger with a side of fries. They had a DJ and sports games on the TV so it was a little loud inside, but nothing too bad. The food came out relatively quickly and we were excited to dig in! The sandwich was very flavorful and definitely my favorite part of the meal. The chicken was juicy and the veggies tasted fresh. The buffalo fries were also good. However, the buffalo sauce was a little too overpowering and next time I will ask for it on the side. I ended up requesting an extra side of ranch to help with the taste. My sister enjoyed her burger. Overall, we had a pretty good experience and would come back.

Most recently, I came & wanted to get something new, while keeping it light. Our server gave some recs, so I decided on the chicken lettuce wraps & spicy edamame to start. My partner ordered the cilantro lime chicken. When our food arrived, I was surprised by how generous the portion was for the wraps. They were so flavorful & filling, I'm shocked it took me so long to try them out. I will say that the service can be a hit or miss whenever I come here, so I always keep that in mind. However, I still recommend coming to try this place out for a late night snack or even to take advantage of their happy hour!

There was some miscommunication between bar and table service, and our server was very confused. I think she thought we weren't going to order any more food and drinks, so she became pretty annoyed. But props to her, she did try to stay nice, but there was an obvious difference between when she first greeted us and after she found out we had ordered some food at the bar. And then she disappeared for a while and we saw her in some heated discussion with the bar staff. Overall, we were uncomfortable with the whole situation and kept wondering whether we did something wrong. In the end, our server did eventually come back when we were almost done with the appetizers we had ordered at the bar. We ordered some more food and drinks, and tried to keep things light and make her feel better. But looking back at the situation, I feel a little cheated out on the experience, since we were made to feel pretty uncomfortable as though we did something wrong, and like we had to appease our server. If ordering food at the bar and moving to the restaurant afterwards is not appropriate, I wish it had been conveyed to us at the outset. We could have sat at the bar area, no problem. I had specifically asked about this to the hostess before going up and ordering, and the people there were all saying it was totally fine. Since our server took our order late, we ended up taking that food to go and just finished our apps and drinks. We didn't really let the experience ruin our night and we had a good time. But I'm just thinking back on the night as I'm writing the review and cringing. Pepperoni Pizza This was really, really good. I'd totally get this again. I really wan't expecting for pizza to be so good here. Definitely a keeper. Boneless Buffalo Wings I had much higher expectations for this one... Unfortunately it was sub-par. It was very buffalo sauce heavy. This is the type of wings that I would request sauce on the side. I'm not sure that I would order this again, but if I did, I'd definitely ask for the sauce on the side. Whiskey Burger Just as good as I remembered. Very nice burger with bursting floavors. Keeper! House Belgian White - ok Morgan Terr Moon - good Alvarado Street Mai Tai - awesome. Actually, I think I might have confused this one with the Morgan Terr Moon - one was better than the other, but I can't really remember which way it went. Overall, would I go back? Yes, I love the vibes here and the food. And really enjoyed the service other times we've been. Hostess and bartenders were great and amazing. Even our server this night was nice enough. Just uncomfortable a tad. But miscommunication happens, and we can all get annoyed at times. Just take one more beer and don't let things like that ruin the night! ************************* previous: 8/2025 Love the vibes inside, familiar yet new. Clean and comfortable, just what we were hoping to get after a long day. Kale salad w chicken The salad was ok, and I ate everything. With that said, it was salty. There was too much dressing on the salad, and too much seasoning on the chicken. And the chicken was more dry than I care for. But presentation was beautiful and the veggies were fresh. Maybe ask for dressing on the side? Whiskey burger Great flavors. This was a thick piece of burger. And the fries that came with were great. Hubby enjoyed it and saved half for lunch the next day. He could have eaten the whole thing, and it took some self control, but he said it was satisfied with the half portion. 3 tacos The Korean Chicken taco was apparently hard to share - because it was too good lol. Friends were sharing and didn't really want to. Not sure about the other two flavors cuz i was too busy eating my own food, but the tacos looked pretty good. Ommegang rainbow IPA Legit IPA! Awesome! But quite expensive. I guess I'm getting used to California prices.

First time visiting this restaurant, and I have to thank my cousin for the recommendation--thanks,…read moreCousin! Everything was fantastic, from the food and service to the wonderful Italian atmosphere. We had a table reservation but decided to sit at the bar instead, and I'm so glad we did! The bartender was incredibly friendly, helpful and gave us some great recommendations (Fried Calamari, Steak Putanesca & Prawn Linguini), all of which were delicious. He made a killer espresso martini with tequila...yummy There were three of us, and we decided to order just two plates to share. There was more than enough food, and everything was absolutely fantastic. They was no rush and took our time I'm already looking forward to coming back and bringing some other friends so they can enjoy this place too!

We received our bread and appetizer, but then we waited...and waited. As the restaurant filled up, we watched table after table receive their meals, eat, and leave while we still had no entrées. The couple next to us arrived about 20 minutes after we did, received their food, sent it back because it wasn't good, got replacement meals, and still finished before we were ever served. Each time we asked about our food, we were simply told, "It's coming," while the staff avoided eye contact. After more than an hour, our food was finally brought out by the owner's son. His explanation was that our steak took a long time to cook. That's simply not believable. A steak doesn't take over an hour to prepare, especially when every other table around us had already been served. I would have respected an honest explanation far more than an obvious excuse. To make matters worse, the steak was thin, overcooked, chewy, and cold by the time it reached the table. The quality was nowhere near what we've come to expect from this restaurant. I told the owner's son that I was more upset about the dishonest explanation than the delayed food. We've been loyal customers and planned to keep coming back, but honesty and accountability matter. Instead of acknowledging what happened, the owner came out, pointed his finger in my face, and became defensive because I called out the excuse his son gave. Rather than apologizing or trying to make the situation right, he escalated it into an unnecessary confrontation. Everyone makes mistakes. Kitchens get backed up. Orders get lost. Customers are generally understanding when businesses are honest and take responsibility. What I can't overlook is being misled and then treated disrespectfully when I questioned it. Unfortunately, this was the worst dining experience we've ever had here, and unless the owners learn how to handle problems with honesty and professionalism, I can't recommend this restaurant.
