    Biscuits & Gravy
    Emeline T.

    Solid brunch spot in downtown Davis! My boyfriend and I came in around 11:30am on a Sunday and were told the wait for food would be about 45 mins, but we were already committed to trying this place so we stuck it out. We ordered and paid inside first, then elected to sit outside. I ordered the chipotle breakfast quesadilla and my boyfriend got the biscuits and gravy. Everything was tasty and I particularly enjoyed the crispy tater tots in my quesadilla. I don't know if this meal would be worth waiting 45 mins for again, but we enjoyed it overall and I'd be interested in trying more of their lunch burger/sandwich options. Portions were large and filling!

    Cali Burger
    Lily Z.

    Came here with friends to try their famous burgers, and it did not disappoint! I had the Cali Burger, sooo good. Highly recommend getting the tater tots, perfectly crunchy and hits all the right spots! The service was really friendly too; everyone was so kind. We came in around closing time after surviving the corn maze, and they still took our orders. Great spot all around

    My brother recommended this place for lunch because he often ate here with friends during his time in college. Froggy's is such a cute name and that was what made me interested, along with their delicious food options. They have a good amount of seating inside and outside the restaurant. As a bar and grill, it has fun and relaxed vibes that put people in a good mood. Service was good. It took about 20 minutes for the food to come out. It was understandable though because we were there for a late lunch at around 1 pm on a weekend. The burgers were huge and filling. The Philly sandwich was flavorful, crispy, and melts in your mouth! The tater tots and fries are the perfect sides that go with the meal because it's hot and crispy. Next time I will try their breakfast items!

    BLT Sandwich with Tater Tots
    Arielle A.

    One of my favorite places to go to in Downtown Davis. My friends first introduced me to this place last year when we went out for drinks. We tried a bunch of different drinks that all had pretty unique tastes. For food, I ordered a chicken quesadilla which was the CHEESIEST quesadilla ever. I was levitating by how cheesy it was. 10/10 cheese pull I was thoroughly impressed. The next time I came here, I ordered a classic BLT sandwich with a side of tater tots to go. The sandwich hit the spot, and I was obsessing over the tater tots. They were SO CRUNCHY even after it was sitting in the box for a bit. 10/10 crunch for sure. The ambience can be pretty hectic since it tends to get packed. Wait times can be upwards of 1 hour depending on the time you come, so be mindful of that. Street parking only as well, so plan accordingly. Despite all that, this place is so worth trying out.

    Buffalo Chicken Salad
    Geoff M.

    I usually come to froggy's/tommy J's with the friends, not really to grab a drink. Open seating, order at the bar, wait for the food. The staff are pretty cool, food comes out quickly, prices are alright (Davis pricing is uh...hot and cold). Moderately addicted to their Buffalo chicken salad. Would recommend for a decent bite. Not much to say otherwise. No pros/cons, just solid. Parking is interesting, but when is it not?

    My girlfriend and I went to see a movie in Davis and afterwards wanted to escape the heat while grabbing a bite to eat. We ordered a salad and fries, but also got drinks. I will start by saying, I can't remember if their AC had gone out or what, but it was hotter than usual that day we visited inside the establishment. Regardless, they had fans on and there was a slight breeze. The two main points that stand out were... The seasoned fries were SO GOOD. I would return for those! And this drink that I read about from another yelper... I actually made my girl blush because at the register I asked, "do you still have this p * ssy kiss shot? And she goes, yes absolutely. Well, readers, it was soooooooo good. So sweet. Tasted like juice! We ordered another right after. Basically, if you're craving cocktails + comfort food, stop here and support local biz. Thank you for reading!

    Eggs Benedict
    Ari M.

    As a former UC Davis student, I have passed by Froggy's multiple times and never made time to try it. It's a bit tucked away in a corner of downtown by the Amtrak station, but that was perfect on a sunny Saturday when I wanted to avoid the Central Park/Farmer's Market area. My friend got a table outside while I went in to grab menus: you order at the bar and grab your drinks. The man working the bar was very friendly and we had a nice chat as he was getting the drinks ready. I got the Eggs Benedict and an iced tea while my friend got the Breakfast Quesadilla. The Eggs Benedict were standard but yummy, and I really loved the crunchy breakfast potatoes. My friend's quesadilla was massive and she said it was very delicious and filling. We ate outside, which is nice especially when the weather isn't too hot or cold, but they have seating indoors as well. I was disappointed that I never got a refill on my iced tea--maybe you're supposed to bring it to the bar yourself? That wasn't clear.

    California Chicken with clam chowder
    Maggie W.

    My friend recommended Froggy's to me, and I secretly came here without him since I was conflicted on where to go for lunch. If you're reading this, sorry Jason. I got a California chicken sandwich with a side of clam chowder. So good! The clam chowder was rich and included plenty of clams/potato, and the chicken sandwich was divine. The avocado spread on the sesame bun truly stole the show, it elevated the entire sandwich to high heavens. If I come back to Davis, Froggy's will still have a place in my heart for blessing me with such a well balanced sandwich in terms of vegetables, meat, carbs, and flavor. I would love to try one of their other sandwiches or famous burgers, other reviews from Froggy's leave me excited to come back and try any of their other menu items.

    Brunch burger with fries
    Ashley C.

    It's been a while since we have eaten here but it's still just as delicious as I remember. Sometimes things you ate in college aren't actually as good as you thought they were, but Froggy's is an exception. The place looks exactly the same as it did ten years ago, but now they have outdoor tables, plus brunch on the weekends. The food came out pretty quickly once we ordered. There were only a few other customers there during our visit on a Saturday morning. I imagine it probably gets busier later in the morning! The staff were all super nice and accommodating. I've never had the brunch burger before but I'll certainly be getting it again...and again and again. The overeasy egg was perfectly runny and added to an already delicious burger. It took everything in me to save half to take home! There's just something about the patty and the buns here... I'll gladly drive here from Elk Grove any time for a quality burger!

    Firehouse burger. So. Good. Had a house salad on the side

I'm not sure if it's like this every day but…read moreI went on a weekday and you order up at the counter they give you a number and you sit down. They have menus easily accessible right outside for you to look through. They have tons of choices, I just got the classic cheeseburger with pepper jack. He had the avocado burger. We ordered medium well since we don't like the pink in it when it comes to burgers anyway. The service was good and friendly. The prices were pretty normal. I like that you get a choice between french fries or salad. Of course we both chose french fries though lol. Each table already has ketchup, salt, and pepper. I like that there was just water that you can refill up yourself so you didn't have to be left waiting and can drink as much water as you want. They had a good selection of beers and it was a nice casual atmosphere. Wasn't too crowded, but I'm sure that might be because I went during a weekday afternoon. It was hot, but they had sprayers and fans going, which is nice. And although wasn't complete full sit down service, the workers still checked on us which I felt that means that they genuinely care about their customers. Now, the food! The burger was cooked perfectly with the right amount of char on the outside and still moist and juicy on the inside. The pepper jack cheese was melted, and the burger was seasoned well. All the vegetables were fresh, crispy clean lettuce. I felt like the pickle they either made it themselves or they get it from somebody handmade. And the buns also tasted homemade. We were both impressed with our burgers, however, the avocado burger, which he got had a lot of mayonnaise on it. So just a heads up they do put pretty much all the condiments on the burger so just make sure to specify what you want or don't want condiment wise when ordering. As far as parking, it's downtown so it's a lot easier to walk or bike to this location. However, there is some parking around the block and by the park - you just need to be aware of signs. I really feel like this place can host multiple different kinds of going out. We went out for a casual afternoon date, but of course there's families there, friends getting together, small groups of two or maybe even just one person and of course, larger groups were there too. I can see it being a kind of a cool date spot for more casual kind of date and of course I can see this being used as like family gatherings so I like that it's very versatile . We will definitely be back! I especially need to try more of their brews

This time I went with their strength and ordered a burger, the lamb burger. It was wonderful, the burger had a bold lamb flavor (why eat lamb if you don't like that gaminess?) and the feta cheese went well with it. My husband ordered the Mushroom and Onion Cheeseburger and he wasn't too impressed. The onions were not sautéed enough and the entire burger had not much flavor. As before, the fries were so-so, they got soggy quickly. You can order your burger a la carte or for $2.40 more get a side of fries or mixed green salad. One orders at the counter and is given a number to bring to a table. We at outside on the patio. There were misters nearby to keep it a bit cooler on a warm day. Our food came out relatively quickly. We had to ask for a knife so that we could cut our burgers in half. We each ate just half and brought the rest home for another meal.

The comfortable atmosphere saves this establishment from 1 star. Dim lights, leather couches, chill music, and colorful tiki wall art make for a decent study spot or date night. However, if you're hanging out at a business, you gotta support it, and to support it, you gotta buy something -- I can't see myself buying anything kava-related with any ounce of enjoyment.

Not really a food experience, but they did their best to bring in some good food trucks, etc., until the restaurant opened again. Now the restaurant is open fully as of a couple of years ago. Completely refurbished, and it looks great. The problem is that the service is really strange. Consistently. I can't tell you the number of times I've sat on the patio only to be ignored for a half an hour or more. Inside is also hit or miss.

They do have some nice specials from time to time. The patio is great. Yes, trains will go by, but it's pretty infrequent and hey, you've got to expect that! They do their best to keep it cool as well. The live music can be very good and not deafening, which I appreciate. Pub quiz is always fun as well! And how can I not mention the beer? The beer is great. There's always something new to try, and it's local, which I love. I keep hoping the service issues would improve. That would definitely bump them up a star in my book.
