    Me miserable at the bar
    Robin L.

    Great food obviously new cook the last few months asked and heard she's a former chef they need to keep her. Server Anthony is great very attentive. Only down fall is a couple of servers sit around talking got one name Alana and the other was sterling spent more time talking then working. Other then that it's a great place bartenders great love karaoke nights too.

    Excellent service and food! Needed a place to watch the 49er game and eat and this place was perfect! Reason prices good amount of food. Lots of seats to watch the game. Will stop by again if we are ever in the area.

    My girlfriend and I had a little range time together on a Sunday, and when heading back to Sacramento we decided to stop into The Backyard. For a late lunch/early dinner. We arrived a little after 4 and waited a few minutes at the door and then were seated at a table in the main area. After getting our menus we looked over everything and started with drinks, and then eventually ordered our main meals and ordered the following: Drinks: Fall Off the Porch Peach Tea Spicy Pina Paloma Meals: BBQ Duo Chicken Tenders Dessert: (Weekly special) Banana Cream Pie I ordered the Fall Off the Porch Peach Tea which was good, my girlfriend ordered the Spicy Paloma which she said wasn't bad, but she noted it wasn't that spicy. When I took a sip I didn't notice it at all. Our dishes were really good, I had the BBQ Duo Andy girl had tje chicken tenders. I paired the tri tip and pulled pork. The beans were really good too and the waffle cut fries were fresh, hot and crisp. The dessert we were disappointed with. It was ok but it didn't taste like it was made from scratch. And tasted more like imitation banana, or banana flavoring and not from real bananas. So we could've gone without it. Overall: Nice spot and would definitely check it out again in the future when in the area.

    Getting a kiss for the grey dinner suggestion!!

    We stopped in for burgers and were treated wonderfully. This place somehow manages to balance a busy, success business with spot-on service and good food. My suggestion is the Mac and Cheese - I was able to get a small taste before ordering!!! Who DOES that anymore???

    Great bbq and great service. Was a great place to stop along the way home. I ordered the loaded baked potato with tri tip. The meat had a delicious Smokey flavor.

You can chug a beer, eat pizza AND head home with a beautiful new plant all in one night, all from one place =) The ambiance gives off a botanical, airy and casual (but very comfortable) feel. STAFF: The staff is INCREDIBLE. Solid, extremely kind and VERY hardworking. All staff members share in the cashier, food-making, clean up and food running. So YES, be sure to tip when you order. The Rose family are the kindest people and what they have created is something that should really be celebrated by all EDH locals and beyond. EVENTS: Tuesdays are Trivia Nights (Hannah is amazing!), Wednesdays are Bingo, and live music on Saturdays. Throughout the year they also host Oktoberfest, St. Patty's Day...etc. Dog Friendly: You can eat on the patio with your dog! Kid Friendly: They have crayons, and coloring sheets for kiddos along with cards and various other table games. (For adults too!) FOOD/BEVS: All beer offered is Boring Rose beer and it's really good! Additionally they offer house made seltzers, carry local ciders, and wines. They make fresh and delicious Pizzas, wraps, salads, etc. and the pretzel with beer cheese is a MUST. This brewery is one of the most approachable, friendly, fun and delicious spots in the Town Center. It's a modern day Cheers, where the staff literally knows your name =) Shout out to Phil, he's pretty AMAZING

We were headed to a place I was familiar with and while going down Main Street saw Burning Barrel. I quickly hoped on their website and rattled off a few items and we pulled into the closest parking lot and made our way over. The restaurant was empty of guests and the young man at the counter was welcoming, asking if this was our first visit, and showed us the food and drink menu and the board of current craft beers. I chose the Longhorn (tri tip) sandwich and fries and a Lillikoi Mai Tai, and the spouse chose the Pastrami Sandwich and a beer called Dank. They do not do table service so after ordering we grabbed a seat. This is a pretty large open space with an outdoor patio, several roll up doors and misters at the outside. Shortly after sitting down a server came over with our meals. I started with a french fry, and I have to say these are the best french fries I have ever had, in my life time. I don't know if its the way they cut the fries, the way they are seasoned, what they are fried in or all of the above, but they were delicious! Our sandwiches were outstanding! Both were incredibly flavorful and filling, and even after I was full I continued eating because everything tasted SO GOOD. The drinks were excellent too, so good that we ordered a second round. The young man at the counter also made my mai tai and did an excellent job. About halfway into our meal other guests started to arrive and by the time we left there were at least 4-5 parties of guests in the restaurant. I will absolutely return, and highly recommend Burning Barrel. I was also pleased to see that they have a Rancho Cordova location, which is a little closer to my home in the Valley. Thank you Burning Barrel for the excellent food, drinks and customer service! You made our great day even better!

You'll see people biking here (there's a bike parking area), bringing their dogs (the brewery provides dog treats and water bowls), and enjoying live music. There are several seating areas to choose from: * Outdoor covered seating near the food truck * Indoor seating with air conditioning * Outdoor covered seating by the live music * Additional outdoor seating close to the stage Restrooms: Two clean, well-maintained stalls with air conditioning. One of my favorite things is that you're welcome to bring your own picnic! They also offer a 15% discount for military members and first responders. Other nice touches include a phone charging station and plenty of outdoor games like cornhole, giant Connect Four, ping-pong, and bocce ball. I especially loved the cozy fire pits. For drinks, they have 24 taps plus wine, kombucha, cider, and hop water, so there's something for everyone. I really enjoyed the atmosphere: it's a great place where people gather to listen to live music, sip a beer, grab something from the food truck, or simply enjoy a picnic with friends and family. If you're looking for a fun, welcoming beer garden, I highly recommend this place!

My wife and I stopped by on a beautiful Sunday afternoon for some birthday brews and an early dinner. We ordered a couple of beers, sat outside to enjoy the fresh air and warm sun. My wife had a pilsner which she throughly enjoyed and I ordered a recently dropped wc ipa which was pretty much perfect! Now comes the best part of our visit. The food! My wife had a chicken cesar salad with bacon added. I ordered a tri tip sandwich with potato chips. My wife loved everything about her salad. The chicken and bacon were perfectly cooked and the salad was fresh. My sandwich was hands down one of the best tri tip sandwiches that I have had. The ciabatta bread was perfectly toasted, there was a killer pesto sauce and a cheese on there that tied this together in the best way. I havent even got to the tri tip yet which was very flavorful and perfectly cooked! Just a great experience at a great place!
