    Wedge salad with chicken
    Yvonne A.

    First off they use tallow instead of canola or vegetable and that is huge for our family. Secondly they had a solid musician playing tunes while we enjoyed our meal, and their service was top notch as well. They were kind and friendly as we walked in and attentive the whole time we were there. We will be coming back and telling our friends about this spot.

    Cheers!!

    Jalapeno burger with " brioche" bun that was more like a poppy seed bun
    Ashley R.

    We were really excited to come here after we saw that they were offering, tallow fries, so we figured let's go here for Valentine's Day . We wanted just a fast little dinner . We ordered the jalapeno burger and chicken sandwich with fry's and wings and everything was so so so bad server was kinda weird and acted slow , they seemed very short staffed , a couple left because no one came to their table. The chicken sandwich was burnt and so dry and all falling apart the burger was just a bun, jalapeños and 2 patties . My bf never complains about food and he was saying how bad it was . Don't wana bash their business but also at the same time would love to give feedback . Maybe people come here for the drinks and not the food ? I'm not sure. It's a bummer bc the atmosphere is great and the firepit etc. maybe they just need new cooks d

    Grilled chicken sandwich came complete with skin and giblets. Gross! My friends burger was half the size of the bun. No need to come back.

    We came here after a long night from the parade, My boyfriend got the chicken salad which we liked 8/10 I got a cheeseburger with fried, my burger was way beyond brunt, and they fries were good. How ever since it was close to closing time I felt like they rushed the food in order to close.

    Came here with a group of my friends and I really enjoyed the experience here!…read more The place is super adorable with some outside seating available. We were a party of 11 and we got a big booth so all of us could fit. I ordered a bowl of chili and had an Alpine Duet IPA. Im not normally an IPA drinker but this one I liked, it wasnt too bitter and I dare say I liked this IPA! Chili was great and hit the spot, was hearty and well seasoned, just what my body wanted. Ambiance was cozy and gave you a small mountain feel. Service was on point and no issues. Id definitely come back when in Alpine again, was a fun experience!

We were greated right away & were told we could sit wherever we liked. Reallly nice a/c on this very warm day. Great vibes & music. What we ordered: * Potato Skins * Steak Sandwich w/ Salad * Alpine Protein Bowl Everything we had was very yummy. I loved their twist on the potato skins. They were sliced like thicker potato chips. Then mixed with.bacon & cheese. It was a HOT bowl filled with ooey gooey goodness..... The hubby & I shared the steak sandwich. DELICIOUS!! Our salad was fresh & crisp. My bro seemed to have really enjoyed his meal too. Ryan was our server and did a wonderful job. He even put the Padres game on for us!! Perfect.... We had a really good time. We can't wait to go back to try some of their other delicious items.

    I'm shocked that I haven't written a review here yet as it is my must-stop whenever I'm in Julian…read more I love that it's dog friendly so we can eat outside at the picnic tables when we have the pups with us but we've also just picked it up to bring home to San Diego too. My favorite menu item are the cheesy bites, which I always douse in the homemade ranch that is available self-serve in literal vats. As a ranch lover, this is my dream come true! The bread is the perfect mix of garlic and cheese and may be one of my favorite foods ever. I also usually get a 1/2 lb of brisket that I can share with my dogs as I don't like fatty meat and they're more than happy to gobble up any pieces I don't like. The non-fatty brisket is always delicious though. I also tend to get the mac and cheese, which is tasty, and I tried the street corn once but was surprised that it was served cold and that it had beans in it. I just brought it home, heated it and picked the beans out and it was good but not worth the extra work. My husband likes the garlic marty pizza with artichokes and the pizzas are very good here. I like that the crust is thicker and there's a good ratio with sauce and cheese. There's a good selection of beers with some ciders and seltzers thrown in for variety. My only real complaint is that it's a good 45-60 minute drive so it's too far to just go for dinner but anytime I'm in Julian you can bet that I'll be making an appearance.
