There's not a lot of places that stay open during the week. We were in town for the long holiday…read moreweekend and not wanting to end the night, we came here. Also a recommendation from friends who's in the neighborhood. We ended taking an uber as we weren't quite sure where it was. Honestly we could have walked there....lol... It was pretty lively when we walked in. They're open till midnight I believe and we arrived about 10:30. It's not quite a dive bar but somewhat better. Theres two pool tables right when you walk in through the back. Theres the bar counter along one side. I think there's only one bar. Besides that, food is also served. A good crowd with locals when we arrived. Both pool tables were utilized and a line was set. Drinks, we got a couple of the Moscow mules which was informed that they only had one cups left. Guess people take them. A couple of those and beer and margaritas. They were quite nice. Kitchen was still open, so we put in for some good. Heard that their fish and chips were good so that was ordered and the fried pickles. Food didn't take long to arrive. Yes, the fish and chips were quite nice. Two big chunks of fish which was nice and flaky. Served with tater sauce and marinara. Fried pickles were ok, a little too salty for my liking but good. The place was fun. A lively crowd there for the same reason. Drinks and having fun. Pool table was getting utilized the whole time. Food was quite nice. A fun local bar.

Huckleberry's is a pretty solid chain breakfast and brunch! It has a Louisiana/New Orleans theme…read more The other nearest location is probably Fairfield. Unlike the Fairfield location, I have been able to get seated in a reasonable time at the Benicia location. They're popular, but not to the point of waiting 45+ minutes. I believe they're only open during breakfast/brunch times. Parking isn't too difficult if you don't mind walking a little from the main part of the parking center lot. The corner by Huckleberry's is often full. Ive been a couple times and the quality and service have been consistently good. Of the foods I'd recommend the fried green tomatoes and fried okra for starters. They're also one of few places offering beignets. For entrees the crab cake Benedict is good. The portions are filling. Ambiance is very casual. The utensils come in a little paper pouch and the napkins are paper towels on a dowel at each table. This particular location can look a bit dim. I think it's because of the direction of the windows. It's tasty and if you've been to Huckleberry's before you won't be disappointed by this one either.

Nice little neighborhood bar in downtown Benicia off first street. Open pretty late but still…read morecloses earlier than 2am. They have late night eats, TVs, and a happy hour menu. The bartenders were friendly and helped us with our drinks and their food menu didn't look bad. Both indoor and outdoor space. Parking isn't too hard as there is plenty of street parking around this area. Their starburst, gummy bear, and green tea shots during happy hour are $5 and pretty tasty and sweet.

Maybe it has changed but we went there to watch football and all the volumes were turned off and…read morethere was rap music blaring. We asked it they could turn the volume on for just the screen near us. They said no. We asked could they turn on the subtitles at least. They said no. We left at halftime. Not a sports bar. Just a recorded music bar. However they changed hands, again. Maybe it's better now. Give them a chance.

It's been a while since I've come here pre covid. I remember coming here for at least 10 years…read more.. We came down to Benicia for the UBE festival on first Street. Unfortunately, the festival did not serve any liquor so we decided head down to the local bar before we enjoy the festival and all the food it had. We walked into the bar, and it felt like the establishment hasn't changed a bit. The ambiance is the dark speakeasy bar feeling. We sat at the bar and were greeted by a super nice bartender who made some delicious drinks! Back in the day there used to be brunch and a bigger food menu but they have stopped that. The buffet I guess was a waste and a lot of food didn't get eaten. They used to have a make your own Bloody Mary bar, but didn't see that either. The menu is on an IPad and it's nice to see the photos of what the every drink looks like. There is an assortment of drinks to choose from. This is one of the bars that actually knows how make drinks!We order a mixture of drinks, from the key lime pie martini, to the spicy jalapeño margaritas with the Tajin rim, to the delicious pear drink! These drinks were made with love! I would definitely recommend this place for drinks, during the evening they usually have a band playing. The only reason why it's not a 5 star is the old furniture... I used to love sitting on the sofas for a cozy feeling but they look pretty beat up now... just makes things look a bit dirty. Thanks for the drinks! It made the festival much better!

Their food is always really good and they have a huge variety of drinks, beers, hard alcohol, mixed drinks and they even have a " birthday cake shot" which I highly recommend whether it's your Bday or not! The cucumber martini is my go to drink there. Trust me and order it. It tastes really light and refreshing with a nice cucumber flavor. I have NEVER had anyone not think it was amazing after trying a sip. Don't let the word "martini" scare you. This drink is heaven. If you haven't been to the Rellik then you're really missing out. Stop on by anytime and you'll see what I'm talking about

Wouldn't even allow me to put a quarter sized amount of ranch on my plate for pizza. They used to offer cups for your salad dressings. Now they charge. Such a shame. Staff was rude and checked out. Literally spent $60 and couldn't even get a ranch cup. If you have a customer dining in and spending that amount of money, and got the One trip salad bar surely you could humble yourself for a ranch cup. And no, you haven't always charged for the ranch cups. There was a time where the salad bar was absolutely phenomenal and the ranch cups were on the side so you could fill Maybe. It's the new ownership.

We tried the loco moco and the crispy kalua tots to-go…read more crispy kalua tots - 7/10, the tots were crispy and paired well with the cheese and pulled pork. on top was a creamy aioli and a sprinkle of green onion. my only complaint is that the portion size is small. the dish is kinda pricey and the amount of pulled pork you get is barely worth the price; however, the flavoring is very good. loco moco - 8/10, the beef patty was cooked well and the eggs had a runny yolk. the gravy on top was delicious--it was nicely savory and creamy. portion size was big, and can definitely feed two people. The person helping me order to-go was friendly, and food came out in an orderly fashion. Although I did not dine in, the interior was small with few seating, and had a cool, modern vibe. The view from the restaurant is beautiful as it is right next to the water. Overall, the food is delicious and would come back again.

This…read moreplace had a very warm atmosphere in the inside with only a few table but luckily it wasn't too busy when me and my girlfriend came by. From the looks of it, there are many locals who show love to this place because everyone seemed to know everyone which was a nice thing to know. Our waiter was very nice, I forget her name but she was such a nice lady. The food was amazing. You start off with a sliced bread thats warm straight from the oven and is presented to you with a secret homemade sauce that was super delicious. If you love garlic like myself, you will be scraping that sauce till its gone. We got the calamari to start with and share and I think that was the best calamafi I've ever consumed. I usually dont like the firm texture and fishy flavor of some calamari but this was super tender and super flavorful without the fishiness. A really great starter to share. We each got out own dishes and I got the Frutti di Mare. This dish was super flavorful and exactly what I wanted from a seafood pasta. Their mussels were HUGE though so I got kinda turned off from that (just a personal thing). Everything else was amazing and you also get a choice of soup or salad before your main entree which is a great format for eating. My girlfriend got the Pasta Gabriella and it was a VERY large portion. She said it was good but we both agreed there was a very strong bell pepper flavor. If you love bell peppers definitely get this pasta. Overall we had a great experience here and would love to come again!!

Came here to celebrate Mother's Day with my mom, grandparents, and brother and booked a reservation…read morethe day before. Thank goodness they had space for the 5 of us! First of all, our waiter was so sweet and attentive. My grandparents have some dietary restrictions, but they were very accommodating and helpful when picking something they could eat off the lunch menu. We were first served bread which was warm and delicious with the marinara. We ordered Prosciutto for our appetizer which was very tasty. Can't ever go wrong with this plate. I ordered the chicken pesto with a tomato bisque soup. The soup was delicious! My mom who ordered a salad split it with me because she's never tried that soup and found it super tasty. The chicken pesto was more on the tomato-ey side but yummy nonetheless. The portions were huge so I had to take it to go! Such a cute place to bring your family or a date to!
