Karl Strauss is 5 stars I don’t care who you are! 3 of us had dinner and drinks. Blackened Tuna tacos are big and tasty. The pub burger was a good burger. The food truck burger also good. Mac and cheese a treat. However the boneless sweet Chile garlic wing stole the show.For drinks we had the Poseidon stout - awesome smooth stout!

The food was utterly atrocious. Never again. Everything was pre manufactured, warmed up ,burnt, tasteless and what a waste of money for a stupid lunch!!! I'm so annoyed.

I expected better cooking of the food. It disappointed, the Brussels sprouts were burned, also the street tacos with almost no meat. I think the best were the black beans, but they arrived cold due to time!

I went to this location this time. The server was good and friendly. The food was good I tried the steak it was delicious. Sunday night was less customer and calm but enjoyable.

Food was fine, beer is good, service was good. Ordering from your phone with no real service kinda sucks. Bartenders seemed good but we didn’t sit at the bar so the only people that had interactions with the team were people at the bar.

My family has always been big fans of Karl Strauss restaurants. Although the food wasn't as good as I remembered it, it was still worth the trip. The staff was super friendly and attentive. The service was A+ and the Beerimasu was awesome.Wheelchair accessibility: My dad needs a walker and was able to get around very nicely. The walkways are wide so we weren't cramped together. We sat at Hightop tables near the bar and it made it really easy for him to go in and out. Especially since he's a tall man, 6'3.

On Saturday afternoon 10/21/23, I and my wife stopped by Karl restaurent and it was the first time we ate here. We were very surprised and disappointed when we came in and told the receptionist that We would ike to sit outside. She handed us utensil set ( fork and knife) and asked us to take to our table!!! This is the first time ever we received such a service from a well known restaurent. I do not know if it is Karl policy or the receptionist is too lazy to do her job??If it is Karl 's policy then they will not survive long wiht such service. I would like to give this restaurent a chance if it is not their policy and they must retrain their employees. I am waiting for their apology and response in order to stop buy again.

Haven't back here for a while now this restaurant downgraded to a self servicing and fast casual restaurant or casual beer bar. You order everything through a QR code app, don't think I will dine here again maybe just for the beer exchange (I got a Karl Strauss jug)
