    Happy hour menu
    Ryan R.

    Great beers good service and amazing food. Happy hour deals Tuesday to Friday 3-6pm. If you come here enough they will remember your drink preferences. It's almost like Cheers!

    I really like this place. Ive been here twice in the last month. They have a good selection of beers on tap and the food is really good too. Ive had a couple of the sandwiches, the turkey club and chicken club. The first time I got the Mac and cheese on the side, this time I got fries. I also tried the wings which were also really good. My daughter got the fried pickles and caesar salad, which she really liked. I will definitely be coming back again.

    I ordered to-go for the Sacramento Vegan Chef Challenge and got the Deep Fried Cauliflower Tacos and the Risotto. Both were very good!

    Loved the vibe here! It was busy the day we went because it was Father's Day. Loved our sandwiches! Fries were super yummy. Friendly service. Definitely will be back!

    Discovered the location after a funeral. Didn't realize how close I live to this place. Walked in and it was a bigger space than expected. Me and the homie stopped in for a beer. The staff was pretty nice and knowledgeable. I like river city beers so I enjoyed myself. Definitely will be back for food and of course more drinks!

    Love this place. Good beer and great food. We love the Reuben Egg rolls and they did not disappoint!! Crunchy on the outside super tasty with plenty of meat. The dipping sauces. Mustard and thousand island were spot on. We also had the frito misto with calamari and artichoke hearts. Cook was nice and crispy and served with a cocktail sauce and an aioli. The aioli tasted like mayo to me but the cocktail sauce was great. The venue was nice very industrial with a patio out front with fans, umbrella's and a TV. The men's room needs some work. It was clean but the peeling wall paper behind the urinals made me question the whole state of the building. Milagro management you can do better customer from four venues use this restroom.

    Beer, food and service is always good. The beer selection is always good and they will let you try a sip if you're not sure you'll like it.

    Ask the Community - River City Brewing Company

    Do you have outdoor seating in late afternoon/early evening shade?

    Yes. In the late afternoon/ early evening hours the patio is facing east and the sun is behind the building. Most if not all of the patio is shaded as well as a lot of parking spots. Highly recommended.

    Miss having the River City Brewing Company located in downtown. Due to the success in Carmichael, Will the owners ever consider having a second location in Downtown or Midtown Sacramento?

    Thats something you should probably ask them

Not bad. **Food** We were craving brunch--mostly eggs--so we ordered the Chile Verde Skillet and country-fried steak. The Chile Verde Skillet was delicious and loaded with potatoes, tender pieces of pork, cheese, and a sunny-side-up egg topped with pico de gallo. It was packed with well-seasoned flavor without being greasy, I was satisfied after 5 bites. I chose sourdough toast with their house-made jam as my side, and it was delicious! The bread was fresh and it was toasted with butter. I'm a fan of that JAM! The country-fried steak was prepared a little differently from what I'm used to. The batter was lighter, possibly because it was fried in a newer batch of oil. Regardless, it was tasty and came with a side of potatoes and eggs. **Drinks** We ordered the root beer floats, which came with refills of root beer soda. At $8, they were definitely worth it! We drank about three cups and even took the rest to go. I almost want to say it was "bottomless" rootbeer! I'm not sure if it was home made ice cream but it was very good. The entire staff was very friendly and attentive. Definitely want to come back for a dinner service since we saw prime rib and steak on the menu.

The hostess greeted us with a question. "You ladies came to drink or to eat?" She asked. We came for both! We sat outside near the entrance way. It was a nice shaded corner and it gave some privacy from the plants that were decorated along the entry way. The menu was small and interesting. First hour is happy hour $2 off drinks and $10 off food. I'd say this place is perfect for drinks and apps. There isn't a big variety for entree's. But those appetizers were the show! Our Order: grilled riblets, garnish shrimp pieces, watermelon tomato salad beef sliders French fries and the blackened salmon. The ribs-10/10 fall off the bone seasoned well with some kind of green sauce at the bottom. The garlic shrimp- 10/10 in chili garlic oil with focaccia bread. Watermelon tomato salad- 10/10 feta cheese always takes the show! Beef sliders- 10/10 us just being greedy but so good. French fries- 9/10 decent portion! Blackened salmon- 8/10 compared to how flavorful the appetizer's were it made the salmon lack in taste. Something was missing but it was still good loved the coconut milk flavor in the jasmine rice! All in all 10 out of 10 highly recommend!

Our order-- Western Bacon Cheeseburger with Fries & a Peanut Butter Shake Old Fashion Melt with Fries & a Strawberry Shake Ranch for dipping The lady at the window was friendly. The food came, & honestly, it didn't look very promising. However, the humble, no frills appearance belies yumminess that delivered in that greasy spoon kind of way that satisfyingly hits the spot if that's what you're craving. The taste breakdown-- Fries--crispy & hot, unevenly salted, but overall good Western Bacon Cheeseburger--the mister really enjoyed it, thought the patty tasted "meaty" Old Fashion Melt--the patty size doesn't match the bread size, but it means you get some buttery bites of toast, the cooked red onion added some sweetness & still some crunch, the acidic mustard cut through the fattiness of the meat & rich cheese, surprising flavor payoff from the sum of its parts Ranch--really thick & creamy like sour cream, had a nice tang, very mild & not very herbaceous, taste reminded me of Boursin Strawberry & Peanut Butter Shakes--great flavor with a thick, drinkable texture We would stop by again for some indulgent eating.

We were seated on the darker side of the restaurant, while the other side seemed a lot more lively and bright, but it wasn't a big deal. We really enjoyed most of the food! We ordered the ribeye, Dakota chicken, chicken wings, and a side of fries. Personally, I wasn't a fan of the Dakota chicken, but my husband really loved it. The ribeye was delicious, and the rice that came with it was really good as well. The complimentary salad was fresh and tasty, and the bread was nice and fluffy. The beans, however, were probably our least favorite, very bland and lacking flavor. Funny enough, the chicken wings were the highlight of the meal for both of us! They were cooked perfectly and had great flavor. Our server was also wonderful, very attentive, friendly, and quick to bring anything we needed. Service definitely made the experience even better. As far as pricing goes, I didn't think it was outrageous, especially since the portions are pretty large. The one thing that felt a little steep was adding the shrimp scampi. I believe it was around $13 for only about 5 shrimp, which seemed pretty pricey. Overall, we had a great experience and would definitely come back if we lived closer!

I'm sorry, but at that price, I expect a proper large cube slowly melting into my drink--not something that looks like they scooped ice out of a snow cone machine. A $14 Old Fashioned deserves dignity. It deserves respect. It deserves one big, beautiful cube. Crushed ice? Disgraceful. The drink was basically an Old Fashioned on a budget wearing a $14 price tag.
