Ive been here probably 5 times and it's always been a 5 star experience!!! Food is always really good, service is always great and it's always a clean location.....best part of this place is the bar for sure tho! Gotta go there when a guy name Oscar is there, cuz one time we asked him to surprise us with a drink of his choice and he made us something (forget what he called it) and it was literally one of the best mixed drinks I've had in my life (not to mention probably one of the friendliest bartenders I've ever encountered) definitely coming back again anytime in in Sac

We made it with 5 minutes to spare of happy hour. It was 1/2 price appetisers and pizzas. We ordered the pulled pork nachos and my husband a pepperoni pizza and I had prosciutto pizza, and a child’s chicken tenders and chips for our daughter. The pork on the nachos was a bit dry, but it was full of toppings. Unfortunately they brought out the wrong pizza for me, so I had to wait for another one to be made which took a little while. Our server told us it would be taken off the bill so wasn’t so bad. There was a good selection of draft beers and all the TVs with sports on.

Burger was decent but the carbonara basically had a raw egg on it. The guy tried to tell us "it's poached." That very well may be, but as someone who poaches his eggs regularly I can tell you the whites of the eggs should not be translucent on a fully cooked egg. How many times have you had eggs Benedict and the whites of the egg are still translucent? Just because you poached the egg doesn't mean you under-cook it.Very disappointed. I don't think they know the difference between "poached" and "under-cooked" because that's not the same thing.

Went there on a date felt horrible after wards people there showed me no respect and was talking alot of crap lucky a fight didn't pop off

If you're gonna eat in Midtown, you have to people watch, and there's no better way than the side seating at Public house. They are tall tables, but there's less traffic. We saw a huge bike parade at night which was hilarious! Alyssa took great care of us. Loved my Heretic Shallow Grave (how am I NOT going to order a beer with that name?) to accompany my brandy fried chicken. I ate half the chicken the next day but polished off the frites at dinner. My dining buddy loved her pork nachos and lemondrop.

Ordered the wings (appetizer) and jambalaya and spicy noodles for the main entree and were largely disappointed. The jambalaya was a plate of tasteless rice mix that even a bit of salt couldn’t fix. The wings batter was tasteless and the wings were fried too quickly leaving the inside a bit raw. The only saving grace was the spicy noodles that had some flavor hence the two stars. Need to up your game a bit fellows! We sat outside because the weather was amazing for this time of the year.

Took a shot at this place today after getting into town after a long drive. Reviews were good and I saw the outdoor seating and thought it would be a great place to get lunch as I had the dog with me. Ordered a ribeye steak sandwich, medium, and thought it was pretty good. The waffle fries were pretty tasty as well.Sadly, this food was not as good coming up as it was going down. 6 hours later and I realized I was not feeling good. I announced this to my partner and it was if my stomach thought I gave the go ahead because I vomited 10 seconds following that comment. On the flip side, I feel much better now. On the other hand, bits of steak are still coming out my nose. Sadly, I can't recommend this place as I no longer desire steak sandwiches.

Drinks were good, customer service was good, as well as appetizers. However, I wouldn’t feed the entrees to my dog if I had one. Also, the female bathroom had throw up right in the middle of the floor. Would not recommend for eating.

This place is not worth the money. Don't bother. First their valet was not taking vehicles but they had a valet sign outside. Made no sense. We came here for our Valentine dinner and our waiter was very unenthusiastic and left us waiting for an extremely long time without any updates between courses. They were not knowledgeable about their food and wine. The appetizers were only one bite to share!!! SO SO not worth the money. It tasted like used Chinese food and my Halibut had zero flavor. My husbands green beans were sad shriveled and burnt. I wish I had taken a pic. AGAIN THIS PLACE IS NOT WORTH YOUR TIME OR MONEY. please just don't unless you like to waste money and time.

The place is beautiful and very refreshing for a drink out and a good beer!! Food is great for its price...id give it a 5...but the wait was a tad too long...the place wasn't super full ..half or less capacity..just a tad long to get our stuff ...its my first time there..andbif it was just a fluke..then yes id recommend for fast food and gteat great beer ?...
