Notes: I was sent to Southern California for work for a large part of 2009, and 2010   Huntington Beach Beer Company was my favorite of the Breweries I visited while here. The red was my favorite is the brews, closer to a brown it was full flavored and malty, very enjoyable.
The garlic french fries were ridiculous. I can't imagine how bad they are for you, but they were so delicious, cheesy and garlicy and wonderful. The vegetarian options weren't disappointing, the Mushroom Pizza was good and the Surf City Penne was great.
On a Friday night, this place gets packed. I brought my boyfriend here while he was visiting and we sat on the deck (which was a great place to sit), it wasn't too crowded when we got there but by the time we were getting ready to leave the place was crammed. I went in to use the bathroom and it took 20 minutes to get less than 100 feet to the restrooms, when I came back there was a guard in front of the balcony doors who informed me that I couldn't go out there until somebody else came in because it was at capacity. He let me out when I told him, my boyfriend and sweatshirt were out there and if I was going to pay my bill I would need to be as well. I never saw it that packed again, at lunch and at dinner on other nights, it was perfectly reasonable.
