    The biscuits are on the money. They have a team that really seem to like their job and it shows in how they interact with their customers.

    It's a nice kickback bar, old school music, affordable drinks. It's a nice decent spot.

    Literally had no idea this hidden bar was located in Stockton. Visited on a Saturday night around…read more7pm and left around 1:30am. There is a parking lot at the back of the restaurant which is where this bar is located. It's a close-knit bar, but it does get a decent amount of people inside! The drinks are delicious. I highly recommend Jalapeño Business (mezcal or tequila, cucumber, jalapeño, agave, fresh squeezed lime). SO refreshing with a chamoy tajin rim. I also enjoyed The Nightcap (vodka, bailey's, cold brew, coffee liqueur). The bartender was very friendly and made the drinks quickly! You can also order food (since it's connected to a restaurant), and we ordered gyoza and shrimp tempura which came out piping hot and were both delicious. Definitely stop by if you're looking for a chill bar to get a drink, it is a small space so just be aware your conversations can easily be heard by others. Not a problem if you're friendly though!

The ambiance is welcoming and stylish, making it a great spot for a night out before or after a movie. Our waitress was very nice but not really attentive, the overall service felt slow for how quiet it was. Ordering and getting the check took longer than expected, even though the place wasn't busy. We randomly stopped in after dropping our daughter off at the theater across the street. A convenient choice for a pre-movie bite. Fries are great. The Fed burger is delicious and very large; I couldn't finish it. Calamari (husband's order): large portion, but he felt it wasn't the best. I don't typically care for calamari, so I can't judge that item fairly, but my burger was a standout. Beautiful ambiance, tasty food (especially the burger), friendly service. Improve speed of service, and the calamari could use a step up. Would return for the ambiance and the burger--maybe with a bit more time for both ordering and checking out.

I wanted to sample the taquitos and the pulled pork so I ordered the taquitos as a shareable plate and the pulled pork as the light lunch option. This came with one slider instead of two, and it was very filling. The fries were seasoned perfectly and came with the side of ketchup. They have fun drinks so I ordered a coconut water and my friend ordered a kombucha. Parking is a bit of a pain but worth it in the end.

The sandwich was thick with the juiciest chicken. I loved the garlic fries. They were super garlicky with a crispy cheese on top. The fries are thin and crinkle cut. They were the perfect mix of crispy yet juicy. One thing to note, if you order for pickup, make sure to arrive promptly because the food can get pretty soggy otherwise. The side sauce was pretty good too. I wish there was an online substitution option though because I'd prefer something like ranch instead. This spot's prices are a touch higher compared to restaurants in the area but the quality and portions really justify it. The employees are incredibly kind. When I stopped by to pickup my order, there was an employee cleaning the outside patio who immediately stopped what she was doing to open the door for me, went inside and washed her hands before even handing me the bag. The small details like this really make the experience so much better. It is especially reassuring to see how sanitary they are here too. Despite looking a bit small from the outside, it it quite spacious and modern inside. It has that modern hipster restaurant feel. On a warm day, it would be nice to sit under their covered patio. I will be returning to try more of their menu!

We had 1 server but there were 3 of them working and walking around to check on you or help you if you need anything. They had a special Super Bowl menu. We ordered: Ribs - They were decent. Came with fries, potato salad (or coleslaw). Hotdog - It was okay. I wish it were cooked more. Came with a bowl of chili (not canned), tortilla chips, and a corn muffin. From their regular menu, we ordered: The Cobb Salad - huge serving with loads of great toppings. For dessert, we tried the cherry pie. It came back warmed but it was still cold in the center. They had no problems reheating it for longer. That was nice. Pie should always have ice cream. Had to ask for that because it wasn't offered. Overall, service was decent, food was okay.

    Cozy Neighborhood Gem with Killer Bar Bites and Non-Stop Good Vibes!…read more I absolutely love this little spot! Idunno on Yosemite Street is one of those hidden-gem bars and restaurants that feels like your favorite local hangout right from the first visit. It's small, welcoming, and always delivers on great food, cold drinks, and plenty of laughs. The menu is packed with exactly what you want when you're craving classic bar food done right. The jalapeño poppers are crispy and gooey with just the right kick, the mozzarella sticks come out golden and stretchy with marinara for dipping, and the fried zucchini is perfectly seasoned and addictive. Their quesadillas and Mexican-style tacos (including asada options) hit the spot every time, and the chicken wings and chicken strips with French fries are crispy, juicy, and pair perfectly with any beer or cocktail. They also have Mexican-style tacos, soup of the day, and a whole lot more rotating specials that keep things exciting--every day feels like there's something new and delicious to try. What really sets Idunno apart is the atmosphere. This place is perfect for a casual night out with friends. They've got comedy nights and karaoke that always bring the energy, and even on quieter evenings it's easy to grab a seat at the bar or a table and just have a few good laughs. The staff is friendly and the vibe is laid-back and fun--exactly what you want in a neighborhood bar and restaurant. Whether you're stopping in for a quick bite and a drink, catching a comedy show, or belting out your favorite songs on karaoke night, idunno delivers every single time. Affordable prices, generous portions, and that "everyone knows your name" kind of feel make it a regular stop for me now. If you're in the area, do yourself a favor and check it out. You won't be disappointed--great food, great drinks, and even better times with friends. Highly recommend! I'll definitely be back soon.

But this was so bad. 90% of the menu is freezer food. The nachos had a puddle of what tasted like velveeta on the bottom and a pile of cold shredded cheese on top. The sauce on the previously frozen ravioli tasted like canned meat sauce. Not a grain of salt or speck of flour added. I know this isnt the only restaurant using frozen or premade items, but this stuff is straight from the container into old grease (you can smell it) and on to your plate. Nothing about this place says gastropub. It was really really bad.
