Very cool place. Food was delicious and arrived quickly. Duck fat fries are a must. Cocktails were delicious! Lindsay gave us amazing service and had great vibes. We will be back again for sure!

Everything about this new Japanese Eatery is excellent. Food, service, drinks, and staff. The textured walls, the glass encased chefs station, screams excellence. But the table and "chairs " are horrendous. There is nothing comfortable about the seating here.

I love the atmosphere of Low Brau and the service was pleasant. Unfortunately, my Frankfurter tasted a bit like an Oscar Meyer wiener than the Frankfurters I use to eat while living in Germany. The sauerkraut was a huge disappointment as a topping as well.I will be back soon to try their breakfast burritos which I have heard are amazing.

One of the first places I discovered when I moved to Sac. This place is cute, has good food and drinks and a great atmosphere. It gets pretty busy on the weekend and they usually have a DJ. They also have a smaller side that is extra fancy with Japanese food and super posh cocktails.

I went there Sunday for a late lunch with my two daughters I ordered kale salad and waffles with chicken and a pretzels,
the kale salad was good except I have a hard time chewing on those hard kale stems , the bacon was generous but next time I will ask for an extra dressing cuz that’s how I like my salad, the chicken waffles looks good too my daughter loves it, the pretzels was okay if you’re vegetarian, speaking of vegetarian, they have couple options, overall it was a pleasant meal. I would recommend the place.

We enjoyed this place and plan to return. Don't over think the name. Just pronounce it in English and you realize that they intend to be unpretentious. It's a bar and they serve bar food. Food is ordered at the bar then delivered when ready. That was done with smiles and a genuine desire to please.I had a sausage platter. Bratwurst, Kielbasa, and Andouille with sauerkraut, caramelized onions and some German cheese. My companion has a masterpiece of a fried chicken sandwich and we shared the guilty deep pleasure of duck fat fries and fried oyster mushrooms.The somewhat youthful atmosphere was not to my taste. But I am a hoary old foogie who remembers with longing the days of starched linen,matched sterling, and a live string quartet.

(Long review...sorry!)If you're looking for a place that serves beer/cocktails along with sausages, bratwurst, franks in pretzel buns, duck fries, etc. - with family style seating and a pub atmosphere - then check out LowBrau. They have long table/communal seating as well as booths and seating at the bar. They have a ton of beer choices at mid and high prices, but you can also get a Miller High Life for $3! So, you can still hang with your richer friends and have a beer. Just before covid, they were starting to have music/art showings...the last one I went to was Jello Biafra DJ'ing with local art being shown. I hope they bring those nights back. Lowbrau has a nice, open, and relaxed atmosphere. If you're looking to have a quiet, intimate conversation on a weekend night, you might want to go elsewhere. This place is lively and has multiple active conversations going on at once. If you go on a Monday afternoon, it'll be rather quiet. If you go on Friday night, it'll be loud-ish and fun. I recommend this place for 1) a quick beer at the bar 2) a quick appetizer or pretzel 3) a sit down meal of sausages and sauerkraut/caramelized onions 4) a place to bring or meet new people 5) all of the above. Food prices are moderate but something can be found in almost any price range. Hope you enjoy it!Parking: LowBrau is located on the corner of 20th & K Streets. So there is metered parking - when you can find it. Parking is free after 6 p.m. (Dont quote me but i think that's correct.) You might get lucky and find a place right away...or you could find yourself circling the block a few times. Tip - the small strip of 20th street in front of LowBrau is closed on Saturday mornings for the Farmer's Market. There are also closed street music events on 20th street/in front of the Marrs Building during Spring and Summer. Stop by LowBrau when you're at one of these events or just hanging downtown. Hope you like it!Kid-friendliness: I would say bringing children would be appropriate up until around 6-7 p.m. After dark, the place has more of a "bar" vibe that isn't necessarily appropriate for kids.
