One of my favorite places, and I’m at so thrilled that they are no longer closing! Everything from the ambiance, beer, service, to their made-from-scratch food is perfect for a weeknight meal or a gathering with friends. Can’t go wrong with anything from the menu....Read More

Finally got a chance to visit before they close. Got some decent beer going on, decent food. Very expensive though. Worth a shot before they're gone if you've ran out of restaurants around the area.

One of the places we regularly go to in Mountain View. Pretty sure this spot was a Chinese Restaurant when I was a kid. As always, the taplist is great. Craftbeer put this spot on the map, and now looks like the food is holding up...Read More

The kids menu chicken strips were the stand out favorite! The shrimp ceviche was delicious, but should have come with either more fish in it, or include a side of guacamole to balance the huge pile of chips. The pork schnitzel was overcooked and dry, despite my...Read More

We came here for July 4th and there weren't many tables filled. (possibly because many other restaurants were closed) The service was friendly and patient with my uninformed beer ordering. They allowed me a small taste of the very hoppy and bitter light beer. I...Read More

Steins Beer Garden is a solid spot if you're looking for a casual place to grab a drink and a bite—especially if you're bringing your pup along! While the food itself is just okay (nothing mind-blowing, but decent for the price), the outdoor patio is...Read More

Great food, staff, menus - including one for the kids. Part sports bar, part group/family dining. However, it was a chilly night and, with the doors open to the outside dining area, it was drafty. Also, the constant noise at the front meant that our...Read More

Steins was fabulous. The waiter brought us samples of the drinks we were interested in. Service was prompt and attentive. Settling the bill was easy and straightforward. I did not feel crowded or overwhelmed with tons of sound. A perfect visit!
