Great valley spot. With surprisingly good food. Really good sweet potato fries, burgers, breakfast burritos. Not super busy always but chill vibe and definitely would come again. read more

This was my first time here, and I was a bit confused at first about whether we were supposed to order at the bar or if someone would come to take our order. Eventually, a server did come by, but the service was on the slower side and they seemed a bit overwhelmed. I originally wanted to order pizza but was told they had run out of dough, which was disappointing. I ended up ordering the wings instead they were just okay. Overall, it definitely feels like a local neighborhood spot. read more

Strangest experience, literally just walked out of this place. Wanted to grab a bite and some brews. Two dudes were in the front patio area drinking so I popped in. I asked the bartender if I could sit at the bar and he said "no, I'm still cleaning." Didn't ask us to sit at a table or offer a drink or take any orders, so I just stood around for a few minutes until one of the dudes outside came in and ordered another round of drinks for him and his friend at which the bartender immediately provided. There were no other people inside. Super weird.... Just left and got something else next door. read more

First time here after living in the valley my whole life. Inside has this Halloween goth vibe to it. Theres plenty of seating and TVs to watch games. They have a good selection of beer. When I went they had three different kinds of Mexican lagers. The food was not bad at all! I usually don't expect much from bar food so when it's good it makes me want to go back. I got the fish and chips and it was delicious and the portion size was good too. The fish was battered enough with the fish still tasting freshly cooked and the fries were nice and crispy. There's plenty of parking since it's situation in this big plaza. It was cool visiting for the first time after growing up in the valley. read more

NFC Championship Game first time I left feeling disappointed. There were no servers except the guy behind the bar doing everything so service was snails pace slow despite being packed for the Rams game. Have to ask for everything from napkins to condiments to utensils over and over again it was very frustrating. Food wasnt good today, a first. The fries were abysmal and the chicken fingers were terrible. read more

Two of our party loved the burgers! My friend had the BLT and the bacon was very crisp - too well done. Also the mayo was spicy and she scraped a lot off. I had the hummus wrap with added grilled chicken. It was delicious and huge. But it took a long time to receive it. My friends were half way done with their food when I finally got my order. Some chose fries with their burgers and they were really good. My friend ordered onion rings with her BLT ad got 3 little rings. She said they were good but seemed like a very small portion. Ambiance is great. Very friendly server/bartender and love all the sports! read more

Loved the idea of having a local "dive" bar close to my home in Porter ranch. First time I went, it was clear that this place is a gathering spot for regulars which is awesome to see. There's a large selection of draft beers and the nachos were huge and loaded with deliciousness. I visited a second time probably within 3-5 weeks and unfortunately the experience was less than stellar. Although I understand not wanting to staff both a bartender and a server when a small business isn't sure how busy they'll be, the fact that there were a couple tables of 4 people and people sitting at the bar, meant I needed to go up to the bar to order as the bartender wasn't coming around. We ordered the nachos again, but this time it was sub-par as though they ran out of some of the ingredients. Then to top it off, they charged regular price rather than the happy hour price for my beers which was one of the draws to this place. Granted when I pointed this out, I was given a card for a free beer, that was a few months ago and I don't anticipate returning to use it. read more

I've been only been to Taps a handful of times, but my experience has always been positive. The Bar staff is friendly, they're always willing to engage in conversation with the patrons. They offer prompt service, they have great knowledge of the different beers; they've made some great recommendations that I still drink today. . They have a medium size bar with a good amount of seats and plenty of seating around. Their bar food is good, I've only tried the regular stuff. The clientele I've experienced are friendly locals looking to strike up a conversation while enjoying a beer. I'll have to come back soon. read more

Solid neighborhood gastropub in the valley with unexpectedly amazing food. The sweet potato fries, burgers, and breakfast burritos all stand out. It's usually pretty low-key and relaxed, which is a plus. Would 100% go back.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ read more

The hot pastrami sandwich did NOT look or taste as good as I was expecting. Although the meat was lean, it gave me the vibe of Ralphs package store brought versus restaurant quality. Beer was good, but the strip mall basic table interior was just OK. read more

What a find!!!! Came in during lunch on a Tuesday, was pretty dead but that didn't keep the wonderful bartnder/hostess/server from being so nice and attentive! She let us try a few beers before we made our choices. I went with their "cider" and it was delicious! Also a high ABV so that buzz came quickly Happy hour is mon-fri 12-6pm and have good choices for apps and snackies while you have a drink. A few tables outside with heaters, a full bar, and booth seating inside with a few tvs for sports & UFC. The food was so good!!!!! Seriously one if the top spicy chicken sandwiches I have had. Delicious crispy wings. French fries tasted fresh cut and their spinach artichoke dip was so good. I have to say what delicious food they had and really surprised us! Great good. Great atmosphere and wonderful service. We will be back! read more

It was so nice to be back at Taps, a gastropub on Devonshire, in Northridge. What pulls us here is their fish tacos. In my opinion, they are still reigning as one of the best, if not the best fish tacos. I was also impressed, that since my last visit (a long while back), the marvel of this dish remains untainted and is still superbly prepared. There is a fair portion of fried fish, optimum crispness, perfect serving temperature. Condiments infuse well, to capture the satisfying bite and mouth feel. Eat it slowly, so you can savor and enjoy the moment. Also ordered wings. They were over fried, tough in places and dry, but had a tasty sauce. Service was very slow, due to understaffing it seemed, but professional. We had to do additional leg work to order and pay. A small price to pay, and worth, for those fantastic fish tacos. read more

Always a fan of the neighborhood bar! Nice selection of drafts and friendly service. Bartender was very personable and welcoming. Food was solid, a bit on the pricier side, thus the 4 stars. Lots of TVs. Would definitely come back for beers and to watch a game. read more

Came in last Sunday for a couple of drinks and to watch the game. My experience was not great as we sat at a table for Atleast 20 min and never got served. The group at the table next to us came in after us and got served right away. We ended up leaving, won't be coming back again. read more

I came here last week for my 21st birthday, and it was great! I had been here a couple of times before because they have great pizza, but I had only ever been by myself. I invited all my friends for my birthday, and we all had a great time! I ordered the mystery beer as my first drink as a 21 year old, which they just bring out a random beer for you. I ordered the pizza again, but tried the spicy BBQ wings my friend ordered, and those were amazing too. They gave us quarters to play on the Pac-Man machine. This was a go-to spot for me before, but seeing how much all my friends enjoyed it, it's definitely a place we will all be coming back to!​ read more

The owner was very kind and the atmosphere was very fun. Had a great time and their spicy BBQ wings are amazing.

Overall, the food was tasty. These are full size burgers, so come hungry. So the reason I had two burgers was because they did mess up my order the first time. I wanted the Standard, but received the Swiss Alp instead. I took a bite of the Swiss Alp, and while it is actually quite good, I wanted to have the Standard. Second misorder was when I asked for a refill for water, but was given a 2nd glass of beer instead. I wasn't planning to drink a 2nd glass, but it's fine, since I wasn't charged for the 2nd beer and I did have a little of it (had a drive, so I didn't want to drink a lot). The only real demerit was service was a little slow even though it was super busy. Otherwise, this is a nice little bar restaurant with good food and a big screen to watch Monday Night Football. I'll have to check it out on Sunday to see if they have enough to for all the multiple NFL games. read more

Finally got to try this spot the other night with some good friends! Had a party of 10 and they were able to accommodate our party size just fine. We had some tables put together near the entrance. It's a tiny spot so there was only one waiter who was also the bartender but he didn't do bad at all! I believe his name is Edgar? He managed to remember our orders just fine and even the checks! We went up to pay at the end since he was busy and that way we didn't have to keep waiting and he was able to split the checks just fine. We ordered some burgers, pizza, tenders, cauliflower wings (lemon pepper flavor), and the fried Mac n cheese to share for the table. We all had a really fun time and their drink selection was on point. Although I only had an iced tea, everyone enjoyed the drinks they got! I loved the cauliflower wings and pizza. Burger could've had better Caramelized onions but it was still good. The pizza was small and had tiny slices but honestly, I prefer it that way. Nice little spot to hang out and would definitely come back. IG: @ammysalamii read more

Drunk waitress, cold food, 2 hour wait, no refills offered.... Need I say more? The worst experience of my life, and I've worked in the service industry for 15 years. So unprofessional, we went back the next day and the same waitress argued with us about how we didn't have cold food, and the wait wasn't that bad. The only upside is that the second day we could understand her because she wasn't slurring every word she spoke. read more

Love Taps! Our family goes there once every 2 weeks for dinner. The bartenders are really nice, esp Edgar. They have some good appetizers (chicken wings, friend mac n cheese, etc) and their meals are good too. My husband always gets the fish n chips. My son always gets pizza. We love having dinner, enjoying a cocktail, and watching sports. It's a great little gem in the valley! read more

Hidden gem in Northridge! I used to come to this place 15+years ago when it was a Mexican restaurant, I was craving tacos so I decided to stop by since I was in the area. When I saw the name change I checked out the Yelp and saw the positive reviews so I decided to try it out for myself. I ordered the pulled pork nachos and turkey bacon sandwich, both were perfection. The nachos are HUGE and can easily feed 4 people, the sandwich comes on a nice buttery lightly toasted white bread with turkey , cheddar , bacon , lettuce , tomato and mayo(chipotle I think). The flavor on the nachos and sandwich were on point , the fries taste homemade from fresh potatoes, I will definitely be back. Nachos not pictured because I dug in before thinking about snapping a photo. read more

My husband and I needed a place to eat and randomly walked into Taps. What a pleasant surprise when we saw the dishes on others' tables! The quality and favor lived up to the appearance when we had our first bites. I ordered the eggplant sandwich. It was very good, but the real star of the show was my husband's hamburger. Had I known Taps uses only free range beef, I will definitely order a regular burger next time. The patty was so thick; and, coupled with the delicious bun and fixin's, he struggled to eat it because it was so big. Another surprise was the chipotle aioli--the perfect compliment to my fresh sweet potato fries. The woman who served us was great! She knew the menu well and was fun. We will be back! read more

We found this sweet little bar while searching for a MNF spot. Only unique craft beers; don't ask for Modelo or Bud in this pub. I love thé Hayabusa Lager, hubby loves the Monkey IPA.

Ordered to go. I had the hot pastrami sandwich sans the pickles and onions. Quite tasty and nicely sized. Hubby and son had the sweater burgers. They were both over cooked and had too much bbq sauce. The fries were a big disappointment. Soggy on the inside, but cooked on the outside. For $17 each, the sandwiches should automatically come with fries. Too pricey. read more

I had visited this establishment when I moved out to the SFV and really liked it, so I decided to pay them a visit on a Monday night with my wife. We haven't been here since the pandemic began, so we were optimistic. Let's just say it was a good decision on a Monday night. COVID Precautions: They were open both indoor and outdoor. They had tables open, but labeled them for the ones that you can utilize to implement 6 feet distance from other groups. On a Monday night, it was pretty quiet so there were no concerns on that front. Instead of physical menus, they had a QR code ready to go for guests to scan. So far, so good in keeping their customers safe. Ambiance: Typical bar vibes. They are a small location, but great service across the board. Our server was very attentive and kept checking in on us. Drinks: Standard beer options. They did not have their full line up of drinks at the moment, but who cares? They still have a solid assortment of draft and/or bottled beers so you have plenty of choices bere..opps I mean here. I don't say many jokes so that was my attempt at one. Hope you liked it. Food: Exceeded my expectations, especially on a Monday night! We ordered the Pulled Pork Nachos and the Chicken Strips w/ fries. We asked for the pulled pork on the side, and it was absolutely delicious. The nachos were seasoned so it added another layer of flavor. The cheese ratio on nachos are always a concern, but not here! And the pulled pork was delicious. All in all, the nachos were my favorite dish of the night. Ask for their special BBQ sauce. It is high on the spice level, but really tasty if you can handle the heat. The chicken strips were generous portions, but not enough seasoning for me. Other wise, the chicken quality was there. The fries were great; they were fresh and again, exceeded my expectations. Parking: There is parking everywhere since this establishment is located in a huge shopping center. No concerns here. If your around the area and are looking for a environment to relax with friends, give this place a visit. read more
