    Thank you for a great dining experience. This was many of our groups first time at Sierra Nevada and everyone enjoyed their food and drinks. Sitting on the patio was perfect especially with our big double stroller. We were checked on often and everything we ordered came out quickly. Would definitely go back anytime I visit Chico.

    Pretty darn good food. The curry was spicy and delicious and easily split by two people. Great beer, but don't miss the separate gift ship and brewery taproom with official tours and some self guided areas, as well as Ms Pacman and table shuffle board upstairs while you drink

    This place is just beautiful inside and out! Service was outstanding and the food was exceptional. Incredible flavors, fresh veggies, and portion sizes that were just right! The sausage appetizer was so tasty! Each sausage had a different flavor and mixed well with the fermentation and mustards. The Philly sandwich was so tasty and the quinoa salad with chicken was a perfect summer dish! Dessert was the blueberry bread pudding and it was fantastic, warm and so sweet!

    The food and beer is very good. However, their portions are too small for what they are charging. You could do better at other places in town. My date ordered the salmon and I ordered a burger. I gave her half of my burger because her salmon was a minnow and we both left hungry. I think I counted 12 French fries on my plate.

    Rachel, our server, was amazing. I always go for blackened salmon. You'll never go wrong with beer cheese and pretzel. Ended with pistachio tart for dessert.

    I love this beer. It's my go to and to visit here was awesome. Food was great beer was awesome, wasn't a fan of the seltzer water. Don't forget to visit the Visitor Center and get yourself a souvenir. Staff was really nice as well, and the smell of hops when you walk in is a cool experience.

    Reservation required for dining. Well decorated taproom and friendly staff. Food is good, wood fired pizza is recommended! Of course the beer is so fresh and flavorful, and tons of selections! Personally recommend Knightro(dark beer) and summer break!

    Ate inside in the bar. Great service and large selection of beers on tap. Black bean burger was about dry and not very good but fresh IPA more than made up for it!

    Stopped for dinner while traveling through Chico and dinner did not disappoint. Ordered a Malted Balsamic Salad with Salmon. Salmon was cooked perfectly and the greens had just enough dressing. Was wishing for a little more cheese crumbles but that's just because they were so tasty! It was also a beautiful night and enjoyed dining at the patio bar.

    I've seen a lot changes happen throughout the years at Sierra Nevada and after having dinner there yesterday, I can say I'll be going back soon! Everything (except the fries) was perfectly cooked and has such good flavor. We ordered the fish & chips with a Caesar salad and the Rooster sando with garlic fries. Then we ordered the Spring Pavlova for dessert. It was so good that we finished the whole thing. It's seasonal, so get it while you can.

    Food was great, service at a 10!! Celebrating my son's birthday we were not disappointed. Patio has a great vibe ✨ Beer was cold and chicken wings were delicious!

    Went in at 5pm on Monday. Was seated right away. Lots of kids in the restaurant which i felt good about bringing my 2 years old. Everything we ordered was great. Our Server was fantastic.

    Sierra Nevada taproom and restaurant is a great place to drink or eat or both. There might be a little bit of time in between our visits but we always find ourselves back to enjoy the food and drink. The staff is always so wonderful and helpful. So if it's your first time to chico come check out the bar, food, gift shop and I believe tours. And if you live here like I do, I'll see you soon!

    Always love the beer. The food has changed over the years. I have been a long time pattern of Sierra Nevada. There fry's have changed and not in s good way. The staff are great. I know that they got a new chef and she is probably filling things out. Please go back to the old fry's.

    This was my first time back in several years, and I was pleasantly surprised to find that the restaurant has had several updates, which makes the eating experience more pleasant. I ordered a medium rare new york steak my only complaint is that it had residual silverskin still present however the taste was comparable to a Michelin 5 star restaurant. My fiancé ordered that nights special the ahi tuna plate, she was more then pleased. We also ate the creme brulee, which is incomparable to any other location I was amazed by the taste and whole experience.

    Impressive brewery. A lot bigger than I thought and family owned! We went there for the tour and lunch. Only the tour was worth the day trip. It is by far the most complete and most professionally guided tour of a brewery I have ever seen.

    Dropped in for lunch. Hoptimus triple IPA, sausage plate, patty melt. Good service and food quality.

    Good food, good service! The presentation of their entrees is beautiful! I highly recommend the pretzel with beer cheese; we liked it so much that we had to order another! The restaurant itself is very nice and modern. They have a great selection of beer and we enjoyed the flights.
