    Fish & Chips
    N Denise H.

    See my pictures!!! We were there for a birthday celebration. The wife called ahead so the tables were ready. The food was great! Our server was Spencer and she was great!! We didn't need to look for her when we needed something. She was patient when my cousin ordered the wrong drink. (It was funny) I remembered to take pictures!. Everything we had was yummy. (See Pics) Now the downside: they really need to upgrade to floors. I remember when another restaurant was in the space. The food offsets the need for some upgrades but not by much. There is clutter where, in my opinion, it should not be. Whoever is in charge needs to fallback and let someone step in to declutter. Doing this will help with the esthetic. The way people were pouring in, take one project at a time, and it could be affordable. My suggestion, replace the flooring upstairs. I don't know if it flooded in the past or if the place gets terribly humid before you open. But the floors felt like they had gotten wet once upon a time. We know a guy if you need a recommendation. Before anyone misreads: the temperature was perfect when we arrived. The upstairs bathroom is unisex and only for one. The area outside of the bathroom has clutter. The restroom is tight again because there is a cabinet or something in front of the toilet. Again, a basic declutter of the space will add to the esthetic. The staff are all absolutely wonderful and appear to love the job. I bet they would love the space better if it were decluttered. My star rating is mainly because of the food and service. They have a good Beer selection as well as mocktails. Give them a try! We will be back!!

    What can I say this place is awesome and always has been we went for lunch and wasn't disappointed our service was top notch and was always checking on us with quick refills. The food was nice and hot just how you want it with not a single complaint. Alehouse has a nice selection of music playing pretty much throwback songs with just a really nice atmosphere. Definitely will be back.

    Mac & Cheese with steak
    Anna W.

    I ordered a to-go order from this restaurant so I can't speak on the service. However, the food was made in a timely fashion and it traveled really well. I got the Mac and cheese with steak and it did not disappoint! My family has ordered other food from here before and always enjoyed it as well. I'll have to dine in sometime soon!

    Bacon & Cheddar Burger
    Hayward L.

    Solid burger that came with a large helping of fries. As expected, the beer selection was great quality but not so much in terms of range. That said, they had some really interesting and fruity IPAs. Our server was super attentive and seemed enthusiastic about his recommendations.

    Shroom and wild rice soup
    Amy S.

    We have been going here over the years. At times, this place could be a little loud. In general, the service is good. Food is good. They have burger of the week, special menu and a regular menu. The ceasar dressing is amazing- very garlicky! Thai lettuce wrap- delicious. Shrooms & Wild Rice Soup hit the spot. Nachos were nice and simple. Overall, this is a solid place for dinner.

    Tuesday 2/25/25 I've seen this spot nearly all of my life while living in Moco, and I believe I visited this spot with my family when I was way younger, but I have no memory of my experience. I made a call in order for pickup and the service was nice and easy. I spent $70 on my order and got the BOTW: Dani's birria burger $18, bread pudding $9, steak bomb sandwich $17, and the ale Mac n cheese with smoked brisket $22. - The concept of Dani's birria burger is cool but the execution was not very well done. The burger was okay, but the birria was dry and flavorless. A specific sauce for the burger would really enhance the experience. - As a bread pudding fan, I was really looking forward to their bread pudding, and I'm glad I got it. It's different from my usual bread puddings as it's chocolate chip bread pudding, but still decent. Also, I'd recommend getting it in the restaurant rather than takeout (the portion is bigger and it looks better). - The steak bomb sandwich was either 1 or 2 when it came to my favorites. The Sandwich is flavorful and tasty. A lot of that is attributed to the creamy & spicy sauce that's featured in it. My only downside is the unsatisfying portion I got, as it was smaller than expected. - The ale Mac n cheese with smoked brisket left me with very mixed feelings. The Mac n cheese on its own is good, but the brisket on the other hand is a joke. The brisket is weak, dry, and has no flavor. Luckily, I had some BBQ sauce at home to significantly boost the experience, but yeah, this combo was not it. - The French fries were pretty weak, and at best, they're average. While my experience wasn't what I had hoped for, I'd still be open to possibly coming back in the future to try more of their popular items like the crab dip, jambalaya, fish & chips, ribs, etc.

    Happy hour menu

    Came here for a quick beer, this is a local spot in the area but I must say I was really impressed with their crab soup. Very very flavorful. I have no complaints about this place, i can definitely see myself coming back soon

    Rustic burger with fries!
    Stephen M.

    Clean atmosphere and nice ambiance. Off to a fabulous start with our waiter Steve! Super attentive and delightful personality. Lots of suggestions early without being pushy. Our party of 4 was ready to eat. We got the Chicken Pot Pie Special. It was deconstructed and excellent! We licked the plate clean. Light garlicky aftertaste was the bomb! The Rustic Burger with blue cheese was indeed perfectly cooked and the Salmon were delicious as well! I will be returning! Thanks for the recommendations, Steve!

    The Blackened Chicken Sandwich and fries.
    Joy B.

    Dogfish Head Alehouse is a community treasure. No matter when I go, or what I order, it is delicious. The service is excellent. The staff gives you plenty of time to decide on your order and great recommendations, when you ask for them. I love the warmth, dark woods, and Cheers Bar vibes that I get when I enter. They have a large bar area and high top and low tables, for seating. I ordered the fish and chips. It was epic! Perfectly fried french fries. I savored each morsel. Then, the fish was impeccably fried and the breading was scrumptious! I also had enough leftover to eat the next day. My son, ordered the blackened chicken sandwich. He really enjoyed his too. There were no leftovers on his plate. They have the best selection of beer and many are seasonal variations. I had a glass of wine. It was a generous pour,light and refreshing. We had a lovely time and delicious lunch.

    Jambalaya
    Abegail A.

    It's been awhile since I've been to Dogfish Head Alehouse, but their food/drinks and service were just as good as I remembered it to be. I definitely need to add this one to my regular rotation. What we enjoyed on our most recent visit: -Cajun eggrolls were packed with blackened chicken, andouille sausage, cheese, peppers, and onions. Dipped in the Cajun sauce, delicious! -Jambalaya (with penne instead of rice) came with a generous amount of shrimp, andouille sausage, and chicken. I enjoyed the Creole sauce this dish was tossed. -Dogfish trio is a must of seafood lovers. This dish comes with ale battered cod, grouper, and shrimp. Accompanied by fries and slaw, you won't be disappointed. -Kid's chicken tenders with fries always a hit with the little one. -Moscow mule: refreshing

For example, I ordered a steak and cheese salad, a sub without the bread on a bed of lettuce. When I received my order, there was no lettuce. When I questioned, I was told I should have requested lettuce. Recently, I placed an order that included four subs and tater tots. I requested sides of jalapeños and pickles. Prior to my husband returning home with our dinner order, I received a phone call from George, an owner, informing me that my sides had erroneously been excluded. He apologized and graciously stated that he would take care of me next time I placed an order. This evening I called, asked for George and spoke with Iyad, an owner. While attempting to place my order, there was significant background noise. It was very difficult to hear each other clearly. He repeatedly interrupted me while I attempted to place my order. Frustrated, I asked him to stop interrupting me, it was rude, and allow me to complete placing my order, then ask questions. A reasonable request. When my husband picked up our order, he was told by Iyad, something along the lines of, if the order was incorrect we may consider ordering elsewhere. BTW, our order was perfect and delicious.

Had to pre-pay ($$$) for a Valentine's Day evening meal. Received an after 7 dinner time. Arrived 10 mins early and stood in a make shift area. No signage, no host stand, better yet, no host. 1 couple waiting before us. No greeting from anyone. Were we supposed to seat ourselves? After waiting 15 mins in a line we made, another guest who was seated in the dining room walks up to the now 4 couple waiting in line, he tells us "They don't have prime rib nor cheesecake". Well, that's what the pre-paid reservation included. So that guest and his significant other left after waiting 20 mins and were not greeted. Yes, they admitted to having to seat themselves! The lack of preparation and the ignorance to try to provide customer service is unprofessional and irresponsible. No one from the dining staff attempted to look our way. At least 4 couples left hungry, in dismay and without the availability for other restaurants to serve us all considering it was now after 8pm. This smears Double Tree and Knife & Fork. This was the worst and we didn't even eat.

We asked the host for an odd favor and not only did she honor it, but also followed up well after we were seated. Our server, Josh, was so knowledgeable on the menu items (both food and beverages) and gave the best recommendations. Our drinks were delicious and strong, and the food was reasonably priced and pretty tasty. We left stuffed and had to go boxes so you can say you get a bang for your buck. We did have an issue with one of our entrees, but it was quickly handled with care. All in all, zero complaints. Burtons is a solid choice for a casual restaurant.

I reached out and was speaking to the back end and was told that they were sorry for the quality and quantity of food and that they would mail me a gift card. I am attaching a photo of receipt of how much we ordered. We ordered a chocolate cake, the photo online showed a massive slice of cake, ours looked as if someone cut half of it off where the cake is supposed to be pointed. $12 for half a cake. My bfs meal was supposed to come with two sides. He ordered mashed potatoes and cole slaw. The mashed potatoes were in with the steak and it was a small portion that looked like a small ice cream scoop, ribeye ($49.00). We did not get the Cole slaw. We ordered a house side salad. It was literally a huge chunk of iceberg lettuce thrown in a bowl with some of the sides. ($14.00) I ordered the steak frites (34.00) the fries were fine, my steak had these weird pieces (see photo) inside, that were veins or ligaments but def not edible and very chewy and gross. I chewed a few pieces and kept having to over chew and then would spit out the pieces because it was rubbery, after the second piece I noticed the texture and then spit it out, then saw whatever it was that was causing the texture and issue. Seeing that immediately made me lose my appetite. So I was left hungry and turned off by my meal and filled up on calamari and fries. I have ordered this before and it usually comes with a nice amount of slices. Mine came with four pieces of sliced steak. We ordered the calamari and had no complaints. The back end comes to my house and drops off a GC of $25.00! Which to me is an insult. For that they can keep their cheap cop out. I will not be back. We spent $134.00 and tipped $19.00 for a take out order. And all they could give us back for a terrible experience and quality of food was $25.00?! Their salad alone was $14. The cake is $12. So basically come back spend more money and we will cover one simple thing but several of your items were sub par and or gross. I would not recommend. This restaurant took a lot of money and did the bare minimum to fix the issue and threw a minimum amount to appease the customer. But didn't mind taking my hard earned money, which I will now spend elsewhere. I also will be mailing back the card. Whoever came to my condo to drop off the gift card came at midnight. Which to me is weird and an odd time to come to someone's house. I have it on security video.
